this morning i took twiddle thumbs to the target i went to with my mom so i could show her some furniture i saw there that i think might work for our new place. the target we went to last night had slightly different furniture. we then went to ikea for some comparison shopping. after that, we went to her parent's house to get our stuff that is there. we have a table and a desk in her parents' garage. her sister and husband came over with their truck again to move it for us since it doesn't fit in my car. now there's just one question, where are the screws? when we moved out of santa cruz, twiddle thumbs's dad started disassembling a lot of our stuff in order to pack things in tightly into the moving truck. god only knows where those screws are. if they don't turn up soon, i will have to start shopping for screws!
