Out of the Closet

This post has nothing to do with gay anything, even though it’s Pride, so um sorry for the confusion. I’ve been moved to write because I’ve seen an increasing number of stories about how to turn one’s closet into an office. real Simple, Apartment Therapy and a West Elm catalog are among the culprits. Excuse me for yelling, but WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE WHO HAVE TOO MUCH CLOSET SPACE? If you’re in Brooklyn, I’ll let you use my apartment as an office if you’ll let me use your closet. Seriously, are these otherwise totally respectable sources just running out of ideas? Why not write about how to turn some other corner of one’s home into an office? Chances are people will have a much easier time finding some other space they don’t use, right? So, uh, thanks for reading my rant.
