Anyone want to brave IKEA with me this weekend?
which one? I was kinda thinking about going. I need a new hamper.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
IKEA!!!
Late to work today, but luckily what I thought was an 8:30 call was a 9:30, so I didn't miss it.
I need some decaf. I would also like a nap, but my boss says no.

Oh, I'd be going to Whitemarsh. No way in hell could I get to the one at Greenbelt(?) without getting killed by the traffic. But I think I'll be putting it off to some less busy weekend.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh yeah -- I totally want to go to IKEA! But instead I have to write my stupid thesis. The boy was planning on going tomorrow, too.

Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove
Megan, so sorry for what you, DH and family are going through. Peace and strength to you all.
The problem, I think, is that most people (men and women) who do that sort of thing do it out of insecurity, not malevolence, so it'd never occur to them that "no mind games" applies to them.
This. Especially in regards to the high schoolish mind games Strega referred to (and the behaviors are legion). For some reason, I think of sexual players (which is the player I'm assuming ita referred to earlier) as being generally more self-aware.

You know when the absolute WORST time to go to IKEA is? When the dorms open for the semester. Man, that was painful. And I didn't even buy anything. Just got swept far enough into the bowels that I had to fight my way to the exit.

Ha. A couple of years ago, I accidentally went to Bed Bath and Beyond that weekend. DISASTER.

I'm done with IKEA. Going to Crate & Barrel this weekend or next.

Look at Mr. Upscale!
I was just having a conversation about how it's time to stop buying crap and start investing in decent things, but good furniture will likely continue to be beyond my reach for a few years yet.
