I want to be monogamous to a toaster for fifty years. And to wake up to the same lovely shower spout day after day. I want my sofa to stay, through reupholsters and restuffings; my bed posts to lumber through years of slumber. A desk made of walnut, a house made of bricks—to be anchored, set down, not blowing around, shedding Ikea possessions.
