Timelies all!
We're slowly but surely putting together the stuff we need. We don't have a crib yet, but we do have a pack-n-play he can sleep in.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I've cleaned all but the two main rooms. With margarita. Not getting to the main rooms tonight.
Gotta rake the back tomorrow, and clean main rooms. And I really want to get a low dresser or sideboard to store linens in. So maybe IKEA. Maybe.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I did go to Comic Con, and it was fun! I didn't see any famous people, but there were a lot of great costumes, and I bought a Captain America locket. I don't think my friend was able to get a lock of Hayley Atwell's hair to put in it, but I will survive.

I said I was done, but put in a load of dirty rags, vacuumed all the chairs and now the liveseat slipcover is in the wash.
Might be iffy about when I get up and do yard work in the morning...

I've spent hours matching cords to electronics, separating my DVDs from my roommate's, cooking more things in the pantry, and finding more things to donate or throw away. Under the bed, I had a Grand Marnier box with nothing inside it but old fortune cookie fortunes. I found a box of Canada: [link]
Now I am exhausted and drinking up the limoncello by putting it in a gin and tonic.

Just so you know, shrift, you and Consuela have me on a cleaning/sorting/purging/want real furniture kick. But not quite ready for painting/remodeling.

I think I may never have real furniture. We just bought a new table from Ikea. Yes. Still with the furniture assembled with allen wrenches.

Oh, I'm still all about IKEA. Just no more particle board.

Hello all! Drew and I have had an awesome Caliversery (10 years since I arrived in California and started a new life with him) wine tasting and eating. The only downside to this is that we got back to our room around 7 and both promptly passed out! I just woke up and amused as hell at this.
We also may have bought a lot of wine.
