Happy Monday! The 4 and 5 trains were running about 20 minutes behind schedule this morning due to either a stalled number 7 train at 42nd Street/Grand Central or signal problems at Bleecker Street, depending on who you believe. But the delays weren’t anywhere near as bad as these L trains to Brooklyn. Gee wiz. If I had to wait fifteen hundred and thirty four minutes for a train, I’d probably just suck it up and take a cab.

Urban Field Trip of the Week: Ikea!

Today Geoffrey and I had a very exciting adventure together when we hauled our tight little asses out to Redhook, Brooklyn and spent a couple of hours wandering around in a daze inside the gargantuan new Ikea that opened just last Wednesday. It was so much fun! Here’s what I came back to the city with:
4 Black 20-inch square throw pillows
1 Multi-colored rag rug for my kitchen floor
1 Vanilla candle in reusable glass holder
1 Lint roller
Total cost for all this loot: $20!!
Gee wiz, what a bargain! I will be returning to Ikea again and again!
