im slightly bummed right now. stu and i are supposed to go up to portland to celebrate his mother's birthday this weekend and i was pretty excited because i wanted to go to ikea. well, stu reminded me that since we have that damn frog we should probably only be gone for one day and since the plan was to go up on friday night, go to the dog show and dinner on saturday, and drive home saturday night, we probably wont be able to do anything fun. :-(

i tried to go online and look at some stuff and found some really inexpensive stuff, mostly kitchen stuff and i got all excited because i was thinking, "well, if it is just some utensils and stuff, maybe the shipping wont be that expensive." of course, there are very few things on the site that you actually can order online (which, i guess is why they can keep everything so cheap; it being the warehouse do-it-yourself style but im still mad!). oh well, guess ill have to wait 6-8 years for that damn frog to die so i can go to ikea...
