Yet another IKEA experience

[jordanna]

We had a long weekend, culminating in assembling very nice tall closets in our office. Ty was at the state wrestling tournament in phoenix from thursday through saturday. I had a teaching seminar all day saturday, and took off for phoenix afterwards to meet him at IKEA. Why are we taking time out of our insanely busy remodel schedule to drive to IKEA? Because we have cats.

Once upon a time, we brewed 5 gallons of a nice IPA. This nice IPA was aging in our spare room, where all the tools and extra boxes of stuff live. We have many unpacked boxes, because what is the point of unpacking a box if you have no where for the contents to go? Enter cats. One of the furry buggers opened the spigot on our beer bucket and drained 2.5 gallons before we realized what was happening. Consequently we had a lake of beer in our spare room, busily soaking into all of our boxes. We had to promptly unpack everything, and our house has been a complete disaster ever since. We are starting the baby's room (read as the spare room where all the crap is) this week, so we need homes for all this stuff. Therefore, we found ourselves in IKEA on a saturday night, buying a closet and all the other random goodies that go along with an IKEA trip (an extra coffee press for Rodeo Days, cotton rugs, bedroom lamps, wooden blinds, and really tasty non-alcoholic sparkling beverages). Those of you who are coming down for Rodeo Days in two weeks, prepare to be amazed at our organizational capacity.
