CONTEMPORARY TOUCH—This contemporary rug
with diagonally slashed border anchors desk and chair
rphone call.
It's just an experiment
pow in Arizona, but given
any encouragement, it could
spread to other states.
Here's how it works. Just
after 10 p.m. a television
commercial offers a 30 -min-
ute long-distance call to any
• point in the state until mid-
night for $1.49. Well, you can
just guess what happened
after that announcement
was made, In a two-hour
period, 24,000 Arizonans
"reached out and shook
some poor slob out of a sound
sleep" to say, "Guess • who
0) this is and.how much this call
costs me?"
I see this as a rally by one
of the most -aggressive
minority groups in this
country: the night people.
Already they have a network
that provides them with noc-
turnal news, supermarkets
that stay open all night' so
they can shop, and round-
the-clock movies. I cannot
imagine for a moment that
onenight person will call an-
other night person. There
just aren't that many to go
around.
Frankly, I'm frightened.

Q. I am moving into a
fairly large three-room
apartment.
1 am planning to cover the
old floor with either a
simulated wood in vinyl or ..
simulated ceramic tile.
The living room is cut up
with several alcoves and
nooks off the main area. I
like this because in one space
I want a mini -office and in
another a dining space. I
hesitate to use room dividers
because that will defeat the
purpose of one sweeping
space..
I would like to blend' the
room so it seems less
chopped but -I. would like .the

spaces to have some in-
dividuality. What would you
suggest? — R.P.
A. You have selected a
good strategy to keep the
room spacious with a new
floor covering.
Instead of room dividers
that physically restrict your
spaces, consider area rugs to
use in various parts of the
room, all the same in color
scheme and style. This
would emphasize the
openness of the room but still
give some separateness to
each area.
` A rug in your seating area,
a rug under your dining table
and another in your office
space would soften the large
expanse of hard surface floor
covering but would not
restrict traffic flow or the
eye.

There have always been
conspiracies afoot to keep
me from the 15 hours of sleep
each night that I so desper-
ately need to function.
If it wasn't small children
who wanted an • audience
when they threw up in the
middle of the night, it was a
new puppy who thought just
because I was tall, I was the
only one in the house who
could reach the doorknob to
let him out at 3 a.m. -
There was the snoring hus-
band who is as -close to sleep-
ing on.the San Andreas Fault
as I want to get, who also
made my year by mumbling
just o .oing to sleep,
„"Did you' lock the front
door?"
And who could forget tfie
teenage years when the kids
kept hours like roaches while
I rolled and tossed waiting
for the sound of the car in the
garage or the key in the
door? If that wasn't enough,
there were the old moviesan
television, laced with 57
commercials that made me
look like Dorian . in: the
mornings.
Now it seems MaB=1,.s
come up with a plan that will
send me from my bed faster
than a bug crawling up my
leg ... the cut-rate nocturnal
