That's dreadful, aurelia.
I also bought and put together an Ikea bookcase this weekend. It was not the one I went in for, which the website said they had but which they did not have. It took approximately forever to put together and I dropped the screws and ended up one screw short, forcing me to rifle through my collection of sheetmetal screws. I had breathed a great sigh of relief at being finished until I noticed that one shelf was upside down.
I feel like today was Sunday and I should still get tomorrow off. hhrrrummpphh!
I had a very unsatisfactory haircut this morning, probably the worst styling that I have ever had - flat flat flat. so I will be looking for a new place next cut. hate that.
2 loads of laundry are in and we ran a few errands.
My mom is here and I am now convinced I need to get a mate. I like this having some free time thing. Can I do that without any effort? that would be best.
Pride and Prejudice is messing up all my recording devices. Last week I recorded the first installment on the DVR and it wouldn't shut off, kept recording hours and hours of PBS over my saved shows. So, this weeks I recorded it on EyeTV and it plays back unwatchably, as if it skipping ahead every few seconds.
Timelies all!
Back from Boston. Not as tired as I thought I'd be. Had fun at the con and got to see Theo and DX in passing....

Bah. Stupid-ass bus was three minutes early. So of course I missed it. Now will have to try again - how much you wanna bet I end up waiting ten minutes in the cold?
