Jesse, you need a lori. I'm perfectly willing to let IKEA stuff sit around until she has some free time. In fact, I insist on it. That's one big plus for Cost Plus World Market: their stuff is really simple to put together, and very sturdy.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Takes wagers on when the inevitable moldy-rice-in-a-tube comment will arrive.
Oh, wait...

She would also manage to say something about "arduer".

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I am looking forward to the awesome sense of accomplishment later, though.
Right?! We put together a new bookshelf last night and it's so easy yet so satisfying.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
You guys, my bed is still not put together.
Is there an allen wrench involved? Heh, it's IKEA -- of course there's an allen wrench involved. I hate them with a passion.
Being a sweaty mess sucks, especially for this. You have to finish putting together the bed, or else you won't have anywhere to sleep tonight. There's no putting it off 'til later. (Though it's probably better if you finish it tonight; it's supposed to be 70 degrees tomorrow.)

Does this mean I'm not a n00b foodie anymore?

Okay, I was bored and reading through f_w the other day, and spotted this LKH silliness. Dare I even ask what this dumb-ass "arduer" crap is?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Jesse, with something as big as a bed it really really helps to have an extra set of hands to hold things in place while you're allen-wrenching everything into place.

Can she still kill a cheetah on a squash court?
Heh, I didn't think it would be Sean who won my wager.

You guys, my bed is still not put together.
Megan and her DH gave me an "extra" coffee table that they got with their IKEA order (they got an extra one because IKEA royally f'ed their order and it came in bibs and bobs) and they arrived at my place and put it together like IKEA commandos. I was totally willing to do it myself, but it was awesome to watch.
