Morning, all.
Mmmm...Cumberbatch. I was talking a coworker who's been transferred to a different location today. It took a while to convince her to watch Sherlock, but she's been thoroughly Cumberbatched now.
DUDE. I just finished the last two eps last night and I'm all "WHY didn't I listen to the Buffistas earlier? I know better!"
I adore them. Cumbersnatch is hot like fire as Sherlock, but I am a slut for brainy, sarcastic guys. I love that he's not twelve, and he's very striking, but his face is too long, and he's interesting-looking. That's one thing I really like about British shows -- they will go for the good actor with some looks that would not land them Hollywood gigs generally.
Oh, and someone told me Cumberbatch is really a ginger, so I had to go look. Apparently, he doesn't like the darker hair because it makes him look too girlish? DUDE. SO not an issue, really. The darker hair is SO much better.
Yeah, before I dropped that much on a coffee table I would certainly be haunting Craigslist or local resale shops.
One thing you cannot get used? Bookcases.
The reviews of the Target one say that the bottom shelf breaks if you put anything on it. They have other nice-looking ones, though.
My problem with used is transportation. I.e., I have none. So I need delivery, unless I rope my parents into shopping with me, which means shopping with my parents.
Do you have a World Market nearby, Jesse? I find their furniture to be really nice and stable--dinner table, desk, TV/DVD setup. In fact, I do need to replace the table by my cuddle lounge, and I'm going to look there before my favourite second hand furniture place nearby.
Woke up with a scratchy throat and snotty. No karate today. Instead, we are babysitting the kids who are also snotty. I wanna crawl back in bed.
I'm also looking at this one from Pier 1, which I actually can see in person.
ahhh, the cuddle lounge.
Good times! It's still going strong. Bon's fallen asleep in it more than once, I think. As have I, with company over.
Shame about there being nowhere else to sit in the apartment, though.
I just had a look at some World Market tables, and more than one looked pretty good, but then the realisation I'd have to put them together (and given that I'm looking for one with shelving and/or a drawer---nuh huh), it's not going to happen anytime soon. I do not have the energy for that.
ita !! I'm signing up for our krav center's Intro to Krav class on 2/4!!! I'm so PYSCHED! And prepared to be sore as hell. You get a 2 hour intro session, and a week pass to self-defense and fitness classes, for $35.
WOO ASS-KICKING! And getting my out-of-shape ass kicked! Any pointers or advice? Things to look for to know if they are a good center/instructor? [link]
