kylecassidy‘s challenge to show him our living rooms, I give you mine. Since he was nonspecific as to what qualifies as a living room (the central room of the house, or the room with the home theater system), I will include both.
The downstairs living room
This has the TV, recliner, reclining loveseat, Wii, etc. This will be getting heavy theater drapes shortly, and likely will be painted and decorated in an 1930′s art deco theater style. There has also been talk of a popcorn machine and two tap beer fridge (fed from cornelius kegs).
Downstairs Living Room
Sliding doors, TV, etc.
Downstairs Living Room
DVD’s and woodstove
The upstairs living room
This is what the room normally looks like….

Why, you ask, is the dining room table in the living room? Because the dining room looks like this:

Lizzy pulls off all the baseboard so that we can get the new floor underneath it.

Our precisely-crafted shims - the plywood will have it be a little high, so here it goes down just slightly to mate with the existing tile. And yeah, they're paint sticks

now i know what to do with all the extra STUFF i can't fit in my living room — put it in YOURS!
Well, eventually the upstairs is going to get dark wood bookshelves, as I have several crates of books which do not yet have homes.
The downstairs gets one of these, and one of these. Some type of glass-topped counter will likely be used for various movie paraphenalia (and possibly to hide more A/V equipment, but that's up in the air).
