But, I have been able to successfully acquire several things from my wish list from a while back. The boy and I ordered, received and built our new Ikea loft bed. It makes me feel weird to sleep on that frame again, but at the same time it's pretty comfortable and very convenient, due to the "closet" it created for us.
I also bought a bike! I went for a relatively cheap but still reliable one.
I love it, except for the handlebars, which I was assured could be changed easily. I think I may become a bike person. Especially when I don't live some place with so many hills. But it still definitely beats the bus.The one thing about the bus I will miss though is the reading time. I took "The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing", by Melissa Banks, from the lost and found at work and finished it in a mere three days of commuting on the bus. Now I'm reading "All the Names", by Jose Saramago, and I think it's going to take a month, due to the lack of turn-off-the-tv/computer-and-read time.
sidenote~ I also tried reading "Tropic of Cancer", by Henry Miller, and I just couldn't get through it. I barely made it past the first chapter. Have you read it or tried to? Should I try to go back to it?
Lastly, I did not purchase a Louis Vuitton bag, but I did purchase an agenda/planner. I thought this was a wise buy, since I couldn't live without one, and I can still feel classy but be able to hide it in another bag. But let me tell you about the customer service at the LV store... It was amazing. I was nervous to go in at first due to our style, but they loved it! I was getting complements not only on my tattoos, but also the forever 21 dress I was wearing that day. It made me want to go back and buy a bag. I'm saving now.
