That woman is my hero. Unfortunately, I'm not that dedicated of a citizen.

Yes. It's kind of a laugh until you cry kind of thing. Speaking of which, I have not yet been able to listen to Pink's "Dear Mr. President" without tears welling up. Amazing song.

HAHA!
That is great.
As for the blow job, I'll leave that to his wife.

...or Condi.

To be fair, Monica should do it. She has expierence blowing in the Oval Office and an already used blue dress ;)

That woman is my hero!

And it makes me think of that blow-job dream I had...the one where I bit down...

*shudders*

I'm sorry, Honey. I'm not dedicated enough! But I'd contribute to a Blow-Job Fund.

Typical Democrats. Nobody wants to put their mouth where their money is. ;)

Hey! This has nothing to do with the post, but pblblblblb!

Ok, here are my thoughts on couches: At IKEA, the different covers cost different amounts, so you pick a cover/body combo. I know you like soft/squishy, so I thought you might like this:

which is $499. You can also get it in red:

I like the red better. Those are both Ektorps with a different cover.

Then, in other styles that are less cushy:

LUND BJUV, $469 red (they also have a dark forest green)

Image

LUND HOGEN (Beige, also in red or grey), $419

Image

LUND EKON, also in black which would be bad with white-haired Eris, I think, $599 but a little higher quality:

The nice thing about IKEA is that we should be able to get future pieces that match (chairs, loveseats, etc) and we can buy additional covers in case these get ruined/schmarmy/cattified.

You can also look and see what you like, of course. :) I should have around $700 after bills on the first (my rent, rent, loan payment, and all of the $70 phone bill). I can throw down for a sofa if you can help cover other expenses later in the month; food, etc.

What do you think?

I just noticed the first two sofas are both red. Oops. I guess it's fate!

Out of all of them, I'm leaning towards the red ektorp (the first one, $499) myself.

The first one is definitely the best; I like the red too. YAY!

Yay! The red it is, then. I guess we can look at paying about $500 for our sofa then. Oh, crap. Sales tax! Oh, well. As long as you don't mind helping out more with groceries and such, I can throw down for the sofa. Plus I'll have more grader hours with the final papers and exams for that class coming up, which I'll be paid for later in May.

Or we can try to look locally... check out Target and K-Mart and whatnot... But $500 isn't bad. Not great, but not horrible. (Eeek, plus gas costs there and back!)

K-mart?!

It would never cross my mind, but Brian just assured me they have nice, affordable couches there. I figured it wouldn't cause an aneurysm (or vomiting) to check it out.

Ah, gotcha.

(still like craigslist if we can find something...)

I agree. I just checked Kmart.com and all they had were futons :P

Honestly, the main reason I liked IKEA is because we can a) get new covers as needed, b) they collapse and are easily moved, c) they have matching pieces we could get at a later time. My heart's not set on it, though. I know we're still young pre-proffessionals. :)

Exacly, and with moving, I'm not likely to be in the mood to drive all the way down to Chicago to haul a couch back up here. PLEEEEAAASSE, Craigslist!

Actually, we should look at Craigslist. I forgot all about them! And I really want to go to St. Vinnie's for some spring clothes shopping, and I want to hit some yard sales, maybe over that weekend? See what we can find?
