Lovely weather today. We ran errands and I ordered a double short latte from *bucks. Half the milk, all the espresso, fifty cents less. Yum. The xm radio is all hooked up to the living room stereo, so I listened to music very loudly as I did chores and stuff this afternoon. I think this […]

100% authentic

We went to IKEA today. It was Brian’s very first time there, incredibly. He got planks for making shelves over his desk and legs for his tabletop. We got a few other assorted knick knacks of course, as one does at IKEA. We also dreamed of the day we will own a house and be […]
