Oh, the big cat tree was bought new. But it was worth it. It weighs 80 pounds. They can't knock that sucker over.

Natter 74: Ready or Not
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ooh, I could actually get new dishes! That's a fun thought. I'm pretty sure my current set came from msbelle approx. 100 years ago.
Oh, yeah, cat tree was bought new. And lives outside. So part of the outdoor furniture, I suppose.
Sewing table, where did I get my sewing table? Don't remember that one.
I do keep furniture for forever once I have them. The Kmart furniture is seventeen years old.
Dishes! Pretty.
Oh, right, what I was coming in here to say was that I have (with the help of my next-cube neighbor) cobbled together a stand for my monitor and actually attempted to work standing up (I already had the keyboard shelf on an adjustable height thing, which gets it down low enough for me when I'm sitting). Not bad! Only did 20 minutes, I figure I should ease into it.
The last time I made a furniture purchase was roughly nine years ago when I moved to Chicago. And I am moving quickly at distance, so it's a little easier to buy new than thrift, especially since I don't own a car or have the ability to carry a couch up three flights of stairs.
Dish suggestions for shrift (who did not ask for them, but I'm bored):
I really like the Pfaltzgraff Studio Aster and the American Atelier Jasmine Blue!
Now I'm torn, because I was planning to order these (they're Rachael Ray, but whatever, they're cute): [link]

Our sample sale is tomorrow. Dishes are usually $1 each, and entire sets can often be found (or made out of the pile of single pieces that are available).
I have not much to look for for me, and my family has not come through with many requests, either.
Rachael Ray is one of our brands, shrift. That is already a good price, though.
The blue and green ones Jesse? Those were from Ikea.
Yes, those are the ones! I am still using them! I still like them. Just, if I want to Buy All The Things, that's not a bad way to channel it.

Those are cute.
I just left a rambling voicemail with my Doctor letting him know that I'd need my medical records. I'll have to run over to their office to sign a release form in the next couple of weekdays. My dentist is emailing my X-rays. I can transfer my prescriptions online.
My choices of internet providers are AT&T, Comcast, and Sonic. I need to pick one so I can make an installation appointment.
