Spring Break!! Wooowhoooo!! Oh, that was last week.

Many apologies for a prolonged internet absence. I have no excuse, I am sorry.

First- a building update: I'm not buying it. Unless it goes to bank auction, and I can come up with some serious fast cash.

I split my time between not going to school, cuddling with my cats, spending much overdue quality time with my niece and sister, going to a CRMA recertification in Augusta, and having a bit of a getaway to the greater Boston area with Zarra.

My first thought on acquiring my Subaru was, "IKEA TRIP!!"

Ikea doesn't really play into my philosophy or aestetic... and I had never been before... but with that kind of trunk it just made sense. So, when the opportunity for a getaway arose, Zarra and I set off on the grand journey. I managed to stick to my alloted Ikea budget of less than $50, and was wowed by the opperation without being wooed by cheap modern-ness. Here are the highlights:

Pretty little classic plates.

These wine glasses were the only ones in this series to come home with me.

This chair spoke to me. It screamed, begged, and pleaded to come home with me to sit in my sunny, yellow living room so that it might be spring all the time in its own, happy corner.

This one too. Only it was talking about my sorry excuse for a yard.

I've always wanted a daybed.
