IKEA

My wife and I like last night's dinner...so we're doing it again. If you missed it, click here for details. I don't want to explain it all over again.

We went to IKEA today, looking for a television table that is the right size to accommodate our bargain-purchased Sony 32" Trinitron TV. It's a monster. Weight 165 pounds. It's been sitting in my study, waiting for me to find the right table for it to put in our master bedroom. So, we found it at IKEA today. Oh, we found plenty of other "ideal" tables, but the prices were outlandish. IKEA wanted only $99 (versus $1500+ other places), so we decided to go for it.

I put the table together this afternoon, after the requisite grunts, vulgar curses, yelps, howls, screams, etc., etc. I found that the electrical outlet we use for the bedroom TV is screwed up, so I have to replace it. The big TV is not yet on the table. I want to replace the screwed up outlet and then get everything in perfect order before moving the monster TV. It will be a day for screams and yodels.

Speaking of IKEA, if we were to decide to build a place in Falba, as we originally planned, it would be very small. A square or rectangle, probably. Then, we would furnish it and equip it from IKEA. Cheap, much cheaper than built-ins, etc.

Maybe we will build a tiny little place in Falba, after all. We want to go to Mexico, but we need help.
