ball chairs

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2013.02.15

We used to have ball chairs in the apartment in Tokyo (in fact we had only two real chairs, and one was a highchair for our then-little firstborn. Someone asked me about them today, and I had to think about why we stopped using them.

Then I remembered: our later not-quite-so-little firtsborn thought that they were such great fun it was becoming difficult to actually get any sitting time on the things.

Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don't have time for all that shit.
