I used to think looking at apartments was as bad as it gets.
Then I bought a car (And sadly must do so again soon).
But now, I am buying furniture. This has to be the most miserable experience ever.
I thought I would just go online and order a couch, a chair, some bar stools, and a bed, but my mother has imformed me that you have to sit in the furniture first to make sure you like it. That combined with the $500 most of these companies charge to so conveniently deliver your new furniture to the roadside curb makes ordering online impossible. (I can still order my TVs online - electronics rule)
So then I started looking at furniture stores. When you buy a car, all the dealerships are next to each other. Same thing with condos. Whose great idea was it to spread out furniture stores? I don't mean they are just randomly spread out. I literally think that someone figured out the best way to take the 20 biggest furniture stores and make them all equidistant from one another throughout the city.
And then there is parking - or the lack there of because obviously, everyone is expected to walk from store to store that are at least 3 miles apart.
Arrrrgh....
I'll take back every nasty thing I have ever said about any exgirlfriend if just one will furnish my new place! I'll even buy jewelry, flowers, and not forget birthdays. You aren't getting rid of football damn it.
I can win $20K Sat and $20K Sunday, but I can't find a fucking couch.
Good luck this week everyone. Posting will be sporadic as I furniture shop!
