I have been to the mountain....

 


AND I HAVE SEEN THE FACE OF GOD.

AND GOD IS SWEDISH. 


Oh. 
My.
God. 


We were there when they opened the doors at ten this morning. 

We sat at Steak & Shake at 1:00 p.m.
waiting for a waitress to notice us
and as I looked into the faces
of my mother and my child
I realized...



we had just endured quite possibly the most traumatic experience of our lives. 


I swear to you, they looked like they'd just seen a tornado.

And the tornado was red, and black, and silver and white
with purple
and green
and strange floral prints.

At least I think they were floral.

My mother will NEVER set foot in another IKEA.

EVER.



Personally?  

I can't wait to go back.

Ohmygod.




By the by.  I have SHITLOADS to tell you people. But my daughter is still washing IKEA out of her hair, and I need to get her out of the shower.  It's been 30 minutes already.

Oh me too! All that chrooooome! And red enamel! It's like the best psychedelic drugs without the hangover.
