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.
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.
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?
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.
Damn foodies! Now I need some lunch!
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.
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.
Also, it's "ardeur", being, you know, French, but neither LKH nor Anita can spell.
It makes the baby Jesus wanna bitchslap somebody with le dictionnaire.
Dad gave me two nice ceramic knives for Xmas. I'd never used them before but I have read about them. So far I've only used one and it's nice and sharp and cuts nice. I'm keeping both of them in the packaging they came in just because I'm so worried that they'll accidentally get caught against something and snap.
