I'm not sure what to drink...Diet Dr Pepper, grape juice or milk? I'd love to open this bottle of riesling I have, but I have a job interview at 2 and I work at 5.

Vodkat Rose

I tis the grimmest thing I have ever tasted.
Seriously thinking of tipping it down the sink.

Either that or go & get my Diet Coke from work to dilute it

I just finished off the first can of diet Pepsi for the day. I'm trying to decide if I want chocolate cherry dr pepper or caramel delight Pepsi next. I'm home from work due to stupidity today so I have lots to choose from.

Some kind of screw cap malbec at my MIL's house.

We just spent 7 1/2 hours and $5500.00 at IKEA. Wholly mackeral. I am about done and it wasn't even my $.

But, guess who gets to whap all this stuff together?

Remind me to explain (if I haven't before) the male/female point theory. Not now though.

The only Ikea item I didn't put together myself was the wardrobe in this room. I can't remember the exact amount of time it took HM, but I seem to recall it was three times longer than anything had ever taken me - including a double bed, chest of drawers etc.

The Diet Coke is making the vodkat mostly drinkable, but is bound to keep me awake. That and worrying about Dylan, who is awol AGAIN. Second time in two weeks.

And I have my date-no-date tomorrow night. Fat chance of turning up for that all bright eyed and bushy tailed now! Self-sabotage. Threfuge of the truly desperate.

It is totally for MIL's, hence not my coin. (she doesn't love me that much)

I did pick up a few smallish things there today. But crap. I couldn't imagine working there. By 2 pm all the employees had blazed and the few one could find were surly and short.

more malbec!

SG you're just in training! You'll be in peak form in case he's a double bagger.

The best laugh I had in years was reading the Ikea recruitment ads. If I could be arsed, I'd set up an Ikea Honesty Forum, with the comments fed directly back to HQ. Most people I know appreciate their low cost furniture. EVERYONE (and this now crosses continents) hates their stores, the staff, the experience. All I can assume is that Northern European ethics make it work, and without them it is the 7th circle of hell.

Coffee. French press, ground whole foods, "island blend". If anyone likes coffee, one thing I can do is make a good pot.

Makes me think of this guy...there's me!

Would you like to see my espresso 3000?!? *twitch *twitch
