Closet update. It has been cancelled. They could not do the panel doors with that large of an opening. So much for a custom shop. Very disappointed, and very frustrated.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I'm sorry, omnis. Was there another company you originally looked at?

Ikea. But the two wardrobes were about 11 inches smaller than the closet opening, and an inch or two shorter. So, not ideal. Not sure where else to look. Need to get better at my home shopping skills. Ah, hell, my shopping skills in general.

Our wings are not tired.
I'm sorry, omnis. I do think it is worth the effort to get what you want though.

Omnis, I am wondering if it might make sense to hire a TaskRabbiter to help you. You can even hire one just to do the research on what is available for your needs.

Oh totally. It's just the big hurddle from me saying "It's a home" and being all unpacked. Web search found a place in Torrence over by the airport. Let's see if they will come out and do an estimate.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Speaking of shopping, the Trader Joe's that's been "opening soon" for the past two and a half years has finally actually opened here. So much yay.
Also, my aunt got me Animaniacs DVDs for my birthday. Fun!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ugh, you know that thing where you're dreaming and try to move but you can't? I took a very ill-advised nap and dreamed that someone was in the house. I kept seeing the legs pass in front of me as they walked past the couch, and I would dream that I was throwing the blanket off me and kicking out in terror, except of course I wasn't moving. Rinse, repeat, like four times.
Bad nap. Very bad nap.

Eeep! Sorry, Dana. I'd rate that nap way below scale.

I have the opposite problem lately, Dana. Frequently just as I'm falling asleep, I dream I'm tripping/kicking/falling, and jerk my legs as I would in those situations, and wake myself up.
