wha-lah


well, i got the armoire together fairly well. about 5 hours for this "fun and rewarding project." you know you're in bad shape, though, when you feel like you just ran a triathalon after you ASSEMBLED a piece of furniture. doh.

actually, it wasn't too bad. the doors are still kind of wonky, but i think they sort of look better than the ones in the store. maybe i could get a part time job as a display assembler at Target, now i have skills.

the 21-page instruction guide was easy to understand. i only have one leftover part, and the thing stands there just fine :) the tv fits with about 1/16" to spare, of course, the thought of getting a bigger tv sprang to mind immediately.

plus, i want to decorate AROUND the armoire now, everything is slightly "off"

oh my. it never ends. but for now, do-it-yourselfers rule.
