photo-less ramble

beth, clint & i went to ikea tonight. i bought both a sofa & a loveseat. i think they'll be fabulous ... once i put them together. ;) they did not have the cushion covers i wanted for the loveseat, but there's another ikea close that i can get them at. i'm going to do some thinking about bedroom furniture & then make another ikea trip soon. but for now both pieces will have black cushions.

unloading the car brought in a small gathering of flying insects. i'm not a fan of flying insects.

today was hot.

we went to naperville after ikea. had dinner at rosebud - yummy italian food, and a lot of it. and then got milkshakes at cookie dough creations. good stuff. and downtown naperville is pretty cute. i highly recommend it.

the guy on the corner trying to get signatures for his petition, however, got on my nerves. if i've already told you no twice, why yell down the street for me to come back because "it'll only take 20 seconds, ladies!"? seriously? i'm not interested. leave me alone.

i saw the railcats play twice this weekend. they won both games. i think dave & i should meet up at a flyers/railcats game some weekend. i'd gladly drive to schaumburg to root for the visiting team. ;)

i think i may put roman shades into the bedrooms.

i would totally show you a photo of my living room right now, but my camera battery is completely dead. it sort of looks like an oversized marshmallow factory the way the coverless cushions are spread about.

i totally have two cameras ... hang on ... okay, nevermind. apparently i left that camera turned on when i put it away last & so it's battery is completely dead, too. maybe i'll think to shoot a photo before i start assembly tomorrow.

i'm going to bed now, kids. i'm tired.
