Full Weekend
And plenty of sleep in there to boot.
I’m not ashamed to say I slept in on both Saturday - and this morning. It was cold. Too cold to force yourself out of bed when there’s really no reason to get out. True, its a waste of a morning - and I’m probably the biggest advocate on the ‘less sleep is more life’ policy, but when the outside temperature is 4 Degrees Celcius and its about 25 under the sheets, the decision is really completely simple.
That’s not to say I’ve had a completely lazy weekend. Shopping had some place in there, as well as hanging a new unit for DVD’s on the wall.
One trip to Mac’s Hardware, five hollow wall anchors, screws, three shelving brackets, two measurements, a new drill bit (and a partridge in a pear tree) later, and it was on the wall. Populated with tin box set DVD’s and other shelf-space-wasting items moments later. After that, it was time to sit back, enjoy the fruits of my labour and watch a DVD.
This afternoon I went bed shopping. Who knew a Queen bed was so large? It looks quite mediocre on the shop floor, but run the measuring tape over my room and you quickly realise a) how looks can be deceiving and b) how small my room is.
So its back to the drawing board. Double-bed seems to be the only thing I’ll fit in here.
I’m going for one of those low-slung pointy ones, sitting close to the ground with the little timber ‘tray’ around the edge. A ‘platform’ bed as they call them.
(but in black or white…)
Something modern to freshen up the room. I guess it also means I’ll have to get a new desk to match up the more modernistic feel, but then its all stuff I can take with me when I move out, so one can’t complain.
