An Unholy Love  
I have an unholy love for papasan chairs. Like, I love them. If go to someone's home and they have one, I never leave it. They are, for me, the worlds most perfect sitting and sleeping vehicle.

I'm having my surgery next month (God willing), and I can't sleep on my back for the first few days or so. I am total crap at sleeping upright, so I thought, papsan!! Perfect reason to get one!!

I ADORE this cushion: http://www.pier1.com/Catalog/Furniture/tabid/519/CategoryID/158/List/0/catpageindex/6/Level/a/ProductID/808/ProductName/Embroidered-Flower-Papasan-Cushions/Default.aspx

Of course, being me, I wonder of they are too cheesy, but then, being me again, I don't care. I love them and I want one.

I thought that cushion was a pizza pattern before I truly focused on it.

There are times when I really, REALLY miss the papasan chair I had in my first apartment. If we had the room for one, you'd better believe I'd get another one.

Want to know the best thing in the world?

A papasan couch.

My aunt had one. I remember one thanksgiving they almost had to pry me out of it to eat. To EAT!

I am pretty sure I had that exact papasan from Pier 1 for years. It stood up to heavy use reasonably well except the bindings wore came loose. It was decorative, not functional, as the pieces were stapled together.

Anyway, I love papasans, too. Go for it! But definitely get the stool; it's really worthwhile to make it reclineable for sleeping.
