"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.

Nutty has now accidentally chopped both her hands off

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.

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

Allen wrenches bite.

Would someone like to job hunt for me? Not to mention get the UI rules sorted out so I know how to fill out the online forms? Racing around the neighbourhood to find cereal this morning has plain tuckered me out.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

While we're doing recs, I need to buy a new mattress/boxspring set. I don't want to spend over 500 bucks. Is it possible to get a decent one?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Sean, from what I understand, since I read one and a half Anita Blake books before getting bored, it's this thing Anita has that makes her have to have a lot of sex. Also, it's "ardeur", being, you know, French, but neither LKH nor Anita can spell.

W00T!

Now gimme my money.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

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.

NOW you tell me!

It's all good. I actually don't mind the whole Ikea allen wrench thing. I always liked carpentry, but am not committed enough to do it for real.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, also, nothing will ever be as bad as the first time I put together furniture -- I got one of those cheapo futon beds, and it came as literally a box of lumber. Ugh! I slept like a baby that night.
