Saturday Night
... No one is high, but everyone is dry (so far).
I hope to have my next post on "The Theory of Education in the United States" up tomorrow. We've all been sick here, though, so we'll see how the day goes. I certainly don't think church will happen tomorrow.
Yesterday we polished off our math and Latin, and then paid homage to the god of consumerism. That is some store. Someday, I hope to give them a great deal of our money. We need bookcases. Lots of bookcases. When we first moved in here we invested in Skandia shelving from The Container Store. It's nice stuff, but my bookshelves have neither backs nor sides. And that was fine, before kids. Now the books are constantly pushed out the back, or falling off the sides, and it drives me up the wall. Ikea has some nice, affordable options, for one day when we're not between contracts and behind huge amounts of dental work.
In the meantime we just go to gawk and eat meatballs.

I think I'll go listen to Radiohead, now. It's been a while.
I'm still trying to find a copy of that book without going to the library downtown. Your first post about it still keeps my brain rather busy.
IKEA! We are going this week sometime. I'm most excited.

*using my best Homer voice* Mmmm, IKEEEAAAAA...
I love that place. I could do an entire kitchen in IKEA... I could do an entire house in IKEA. *Sigh* It's fun, isn't it?
Had to laugh at the bookshelves. Yeah. I used to use bookends and keep books on tables, dressers, etc. Not with kids. Cannot do that with small children. Or middle-sized children. Bookcases w/ backs are wonderful for the family.
Good luck with everything. I hope a new contract (a big, fat, juicy one!) comes your way soon!
