IKEA = my mecca.

I made a 4 hour drive there (and then back) in one day just to get some things on my own “master list.” I love that place.

Glad to hear things are settling in for you guys up there! You should watch “You’ve Got Mail” to put you in even more of a “fall in NYC” mood.

Hi 5!!

I feel like some cool points should be deducted/rewarded here. Do commenters still get to help in that? If so...

-5 cool points for forgetting about NCAA football! (for shame)
+7 points for your marriage surviving it (and shopping at IKEA!)

Wow – Cool Dad, you deserve a BIG high five. Maybe even a fist bump. If that sort of thing is even cool anymore.

And Cool Mom – even though you lost your list, you were so organized to come up with it in the first place!

I have a friend who refers to their sectional couch as the “divorce couch,” because for some reason (it’s been a long time since I heard the story), the delivery or set up or something of this couch caused such a huge fight. What IS IT about furniture, huh?
