one more sleep...
one more sleep one more sleep one more sleep.
i still have a ridiculous amount to do... one thing i was trippin' out on last night regarding the whole movin' process is that every little thing EVERY little thing has to be in its place... down to like EVERYTHING... do you take the 50 packet's of soy sauce with you?? or do ya throw them out?? what about all the little ketchup packages from the late night debauchery that took place over the last 2 years?? wtf do you do with them?? waste not want not right? WHAT ABOUT THE VAGISIL!!!! yeah thats right i said VAGISIL!! how do ya like me now?? eh?? eh???
i threw the vagisil out.
i went to Ikea yesterday. NIGHTMARE!! that place is very similier to The Bay in that it seems to run independantly like without people. it just kind of exists. mom and i went out early cause we wanted to cash in on the $1 breakfast special.. ONE DOLLAR!! swedish style... scrambled eggs, a croissant, TWO sausages and perfectly square potatoes... ONE DOLLAR!! $2.12 for two. and if you smothered everything in ketchup including the croissant it was actually ok. ONE DOLLAR. (shit. guess i should of brought those packets of debaucherous ketchup with me) so then we went about our shopping business... (i had to work really hard at keeping mom on track)... i picked out the bed that i wanted... (the cheapest one).. and mom even said she would donate to the cause so i could get an upgrade on the mattress!! woooooooooooot. but of course this is Ikea right??... so obviously they were out of that particular item. NIGHTMARE! so now we fast forward a tad and we're down in the "pick your shit up.. even though yer gettin' it delivered... you still need to pick it all up and THEN ring it in section"...?????? so we get a cart and wheel around like maniac's in this ZOO named Ikea trying to find the correct isle and bin. i nearly took out an entire family with the cart. (keep in mind that i'm still attempting to keep mom on track... who by now has picked up pillow's, candles, plates, a soap dish and bamboo)... fast forward some more and we're waiting in the 'hold' area to place our delivery order... we wait about 15 minutes and then mom turns to me and say's "i find it really odd that so many people would want things delivered"... and that's when we realise that we're waiting in the wrong section. obviously. NIGHTMARE. so we find the right section and blahblahblahblahdeefuckin'blah.. place the order and we're done.
soooo... $480 and some odd dollar's later we surface with: a bed, a mattress, a computer desk and a bookshelf.
phew.
no wonder they give you breakfast.
friday.

Your description of the whole ikea experience holds true for me. I'm sure the femme could tell you... you really don't want to be with me at ikea... I get so grumpy...really miserable...as if someone is forcing me to undergo the wretched experience. ...but then I find some little organizer thing...or something like their cheese grater that grates over it's own contained and has a storage lid to keep the cheese fresh until you're ready for it...or their really cheap but big and beautiful paper napkins...and I know that I can be bought! Yeah! They've got my number...but I go there as seldom as possible!
I hope, truly hope, that your move and settling in is going beautifully! Enjoy your new home!
