just out of touch

I've been consumed as of late with decorating. One item on my still-to-get list is a nice high-pile shag rug for my living room. The good news: I found the perfect one!

The bad news: It costs a mere $5,300 (for the 1-inch pile version). I had my suspicions this would be the case when I found the well-designed Urba site and it was sans prices. (Always a bad indication for those on a budget.) Needless to say, my feet won't be traversing these threads, which at that cost, would probably be a good idea even if I did buy it.
