Busy time for me right now. I'm moving in with my girlfriend this week, so my best friend, George, is in town for a few days to "help me move." The quotes are because I have no furniture, and since I moved to New York by myself with 6 pieces of luggage I have only added some minor pieces of clothing and a TV. So basically, he just wanted any excuse to come to the city.
Because I have no furniture (the room I rent currently is furnished) I had to buy a dresser. I'm not exactly rolling in cash, so IKEA was the only answer. Last night I spent two hours alone and one hour with my girlfriend putting together a small five drawer dresser. It was only $60 and will definitely get the job done, but I officially drove more nails last night than I have in the rest of my life combined. It's cheap because you do every piece of human labor.
Why are things from Sweden so high maintenence? Between IKEA and the Bikini Team, I don't think any man should ever think of moving to Sweden, unless they have a death wish. Luckily, the cheap furniture might counter all the hair dyeing, waxing, tanning, and plastic surgery appointment money needed to hold onto a woman there.
But, I digress. It's a busy time, but an exciting time. If living with her works out like I think it will, she'll be the one. Yes, that one. Only time will tell if she's willing to put up with my bullshit, and I with hers, with nowhere to escape to.
