i am returned from my semi-hiatus!
i have been preparing to be on vacation, away on vacation & then returned from vacation. i should be digging out from the backlog, working away. but technically, i am working. don't tell big brother .... shhhhhhhh.
before we go any further, i simply have to say that no matter how much society denies their intense obsession with appearance, some children just aren't up to par. hey, i didn't say it, i just linkededededededed it.
at any rate, i just returned earlyearlyearly yesterday morning from huntingdon, pa where i visited with eric. pics to follow.
he showed me a good time, which says a lot considering huntingdon's size. we spent plenty of time together, with his friends, & with my friends. not to mention some tours of the campus & a short jaunt for a shopping trip in nearby state college, pa. he got points for shopping.
we still haven't made a determination of our status as we recognize we need to spend some more time together. but i can't say i don't miss him & it's only two days after i left.
on the way home, sarah, darryl & i took a detour to the ikea at college park, md, where we met up with mike for a quickie shopping trip. it's quite amazing the number of things you see that you suddenly need when you see them marked for $2 in a bin at ikea.
i went specifically for
this tv stand & came away with a few additions like wire whisks, magazine storage files, lampshades, desk lamps, & markers (for 35¢!). i would say ikea is of the devil but then i'd be lying. all of that for $52 total (despite the guy mistakenly ringing up my total as $29,456.32 ... no lie).
i heart ikea.
i heart my friends for traveling with me.
i heart eric when he's nice.
i don't heart work but i should return.
