I went and picked up two more bookcases today. I couldn’t be bothered to put them together, but I will do that tomorrow. Then I will finish placing my books (Magic for Beginners — paperback version — has shipped! I should have it tomorrow!) and figure out how to organise them. Probably broadly by theme — non-fiction, gen fiction, mystery, fantasy, poetry/art, nerd — then by author. Oooh, it will be so wonderful and pretty.
I also picked up a mirror for my bathroom — finally, a nice big one instead of the dinky (but pretty! to go in my bedroom now) one I was using (which is sitting where it will hang once I get around to it, but since I also have a lot of art that is getting around to being hung . . . and, crap, a light that needs a lightbulb). AND a table for art. Made out of wood, pine I guess, but I don’t know what the equivalent term is in English. Massive wood is wrong. Anyways, very plain, but also good for what I need.
I forgot that the Boucherville Ikea is right near the border, so USians from NH and VT and NY come up there. But I think I just missed the huge influx of students.
I went with my sister, who ate 3 hot dogs.
