You can laugh now...

...because I have become a frequent Ikea customer. When you move into a house with narrow staircases, you welcome furniture you can assemble in the room in which that furniture will serve. I'm not going to start buying chairs or beds there, mind you, but for a dresser I'll cave. I just want to keep my clothes in a drawer and not in a box.

We won't have Internet access at home until this Saturday (at earliest), so if you need to get me urgently it's best to use the phone. Oh, and our house is great at blocking cell phone signals. Right now it's like living on Galactica; not networked, lacking half the necessary stuff and staffed by tired, frazzled people.

Look out for an email invite to the housewarming Saturday, August 16. If you don't get an invite I probably just forgot to add you to the email list...it's not that we don't want to see you. Unless you work for Comcast, in which case I left you off the list because you are a demon from hell.

Oh, and the Mambo guys? They hit the target. Three very different looks, all of them pleasing but not overly so. Nice.

New favorite lyric:

"Ikea, just some oak and some pine and a handful of Norsemen
Ikea, selling furniture for college kids and divorced men
Everyone has a home
But if you don't have a home you can buy one there."
