Ikea

I always go to Ikea thinking there will be things I want.  I get a little wrapped up in the catalog and some kind of idealized Scandinavian life.  What am I thinking?   That life doesn't contain the same tediums in Swedish as it does in English?

Anyway, went to Ikea today to help a friend continue redecorating her apartment.  Despite not needing or really wanting anything, my partner and I ended up spending some $80+ on 'stuff.'  Tedium or not - impulse purchases are the same in any language!
