I’ve become addicted to sitting. I’m not messing. My addiction is so bad that when I enter a room I scan it for potential thrones. Nightly I browse the internet for comfortable chairs while sitting in a comfortable chair and I have had several daydreams of buying an Eames lounger similar to the one in Frasier.

But it wasn’t always like this. Do you know that person who will never sit down when they enter a room? The same individual will be told ‘There’s a chair sit down take the load off” it eventually escalates to “Will you please sit down you're making me uncomfortable” I was that person who wouldn’t sit down.
