happy birthday!

it was a crappy day yesterday, what with the rain and overcast bullshit, so I took the kids to ikea for some meatballs and gravy and a few passes down the slide. they had quite a good time save for the loss of elliot's wooby blanket which fucking pissed me off. I knew that was going to happen! but whatever. I did see a rug that interested me. unfortunatly the children were running maniacally around so I could not observe as closely as I would have liked. upon our return home I typed onto ikea's website where I learned that this friday, saturday and sunday they are having a birthday sale. every home item is 15% off. which means everything except those barf balls with gravy is on sale.
