All I Want for Christmas...

...is an IKEA catalog. Those things are an absolute pain to get when there's no IKEA near you. For some absolutely lame reason, IKEA won't let me order a catalog because my zip code is not close enough to their store. Ummm, yeah. You think that might be why I wan't a catalog? Mental midgets, I swear. Oh, and don't try to order anything from their website. They charge a flat rate for shipping. So that $5 basket you want has $179 shipping fee. My numbers may be a bit off, but that's about right.

I could break down and buy one on E-bay for $5, but really...why should I pay for something that was originally free?

Why do I want one of these? Well, they're fun to look at, but we are planning to go to Atlanta sometime next year and load up on some much needed stuff. With two kids, it's nice to go in with a game plan.

And the best part...after waiting for years for an IKEA in Sacramento, they finally build one the year after we move away from there. It would figure, right? Murphy is not a friend of mine.
