Hey there, fellow connoisseur of fictional sleeping arrangements, So last night I found myself explaining to Mr. Mav why I was googling "small cabin floor plans" and "studio apartment bed configurations" at 11 PM. His response? "Are we moving? Because I just fixed the garage door." No, sweet summer child.
