SKUBB-Do You Know What This Is?

I keep surprising myself, but this weekend I rocked IKEA. My place was in serious need of some basics like tables and a bureau and my cousin Chris was kind enough to help shuttle me there and back with all my goodies. My credit card is practically worn out, however my place is finally coming together. IKEA was in Halifax years ago and of course closed down long before I could appreciate it so this was definitely an eye opening experience. I had no idea you had to put together everything you bought, however I did have my own tools, courtesy of living in previous apartments that barely passed for anything other than slum housing, and with a little back pain and sweat, I managed to put everything together on my own - including my six drawer bureau, or as they call it at IKEA, a Malm. The funniest though was writing down the four things I was going to buy and making our way down the various isles in the warehouse and having no idea what they were since the names didn't even remotely sound like anything home decor-related. Ah IKEA...I have a feeling we'll be spending a lot more time together.
