Black is the fastest color.

Especially for a couch

Hoping the other pieces go together easier. I could have used a helping hand with the couch on the big pieces but the hole problems would have still existed. Oh, I considered the operator error part but the more I messed with it the more I realized it was not me. Most have been one drunk Swede that day on the assembly line! [laugh] Oh well, it gave me some quality bonding time with the rat tail file. [thumbsup]

Just sorted through the boxes and made three piles. TV stand, end table/shelving unit and one big ass book case with shelves and drawers. Lunch first then I'll start small and work my way to the big stuff. Hopefully the guys who made these parts were sober. Either that or maybe I should get drunk first so it will make more sense! [laugh] [drink] More good thinking! ;)
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

Good luck!  A little bit of aquavit helps the Ikea assembly  [thumbsup]

(Although I recently put together an Ikea couch, granted *not* a L shaped or a day bed conversion (what does that even mean? He sleeps on top of the couch?)...and the assembly process was absurdly easy...  [cheeky] )

Not sick, just a little stuffed up.

I teach in a two-year-old classroom.   dp is spot on about being a germ breeding ground. 

I had one kid stay home with the flu today, two others are coughing away, and several have the big green double stream coming from their noses.  :-\ :-X :P

That place seems to be springing up pretty quick now, Nate. Does it feel that way to you?

Two months behind at a breakneck pace  [laugh]

It absolutely is going very fast.

It's good though...

running out of weather pretty soon.

I was sweeping water off the slab today.

I could be shoveling snow/chipping ice tomorrow.
