I just returned from IKEA with a really comfy faux-leather recliner and footstool. I just thought I'd let y'all know. (My couch with its rock-like feel managed to offend my mother's sensibilities, and I know that she was concerned about my seating arrangements.) This afternoon I'll be heading out to the Underground Market - it's a fun mixture of antiques, souvenirs, everyday essentials and crap. It's a great time, and I highly recommend it.
