Couch Accouchement.
There's nothing to liven up one's abode like a new piece of furniture. Every time I walk into the house, now, I smile, thinking, "Look at me! I've got a sofa!" I'm going to bed late today (I stayed up for laundry), so it will probably get its first important use this evening, when I drag myself out of bed half-asleep to wake up to the soothing sounds of Survivor.
It's not really my couch; I'm borrowing it from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
wjukknibs who's borrowing a couch from his sister. Yet, for all that, it took three car accidents to get this couch to my house. First, wjukknibs got into a car accident in Chicago, bruising the musculature of his ribs and making him unable to help move the couch himself. We were counting, then, on his brother to help, both with brawn and with an SUV large enough to hold the sofa. On the day he was to move it, he crashed into a mountain. Then, yesterday, as my landlord drove his truck and me to wjukknibs' apartment to finally pick up this sofa . . . I think you can fill in this blank. Not one mile from our sofa, we were in an accident.
Thankfully, no one was hurt in any of these accidents. More thankfully, I still got a couch! I do need to rearrange my furniture a bit, though, to preserve the flow of chi and all that.
Also, as you probably guessed, wjukknibs and I returned safely from Las Vegas. I managed to clear $100 from gambling, which defrayed pretty much all of my expenses, including meals, taxis and Penn and Teller souvenirs. I want to detail my out-of-state experiences soon, and I'll certainly begin writing up my thoughts from the Penn and Teller show sometime in the next day or so.
Till then, I can finally invite people to crash on my couch! Hooray!
