Anyway, I saw this article titled The Story Behind Don Draper's New Digs, and even though I despise the term "new digs" I quickly got past it when I saw the pics.
Maybe it's because my house was built in 1979, has a butterfly roof and the stone facade around the fireplace reaches the ceiling, but I am "digging" this look. I guess I'm a little grateful that my seriously outdated house might kinda' sorta (but not really) be thought of as cool. Question mark? Yeah, not so much, but I did have that fridge in avocado green and burnt orange shag carpeting when I was little.
So that's that then. Dollars to donuts Don Draper lives in a retirement community in Palm Springs now.xo,

Yes, yes he does. I saw him while I was on vacation there last week. he wears his hair the same (although completely gray now -- still dapper). He now wears very large glasses with thick lenses, and wears a cardigan sweater even in the heat. gave up golfing 4 years ago and now tries to avoid the sun.

Either that, or he's living in one of the fabulous mid-century moderns, has drinks at the club every afternoon, drives a vintage Jag (tho he should have given up his license years ago --- he's a bit of a danger on the road. And he's having the time of his life.
I'm totally loving Don's new home. It reminds me a little bit of a hotel. IF Don were to live this long, he'd definitely be in a retirement home. Though, I doubt he'd have made it this long with getting lung cancer from that chain smoking. Or liver disease from all those mid-afternoon Scotches...
