Adventures in IKEA

   I'm remodeling the house, and I had to buy a couple of IKEA bookcases.
   They come in huge boxes and I don't have a truck to take them home.
   So, I bring them home in my [1]Cabrio with the top down.

   This is a good solution in the summer (as long as it doesn't rain) but
   it doesn't work out so well in the winter. Today was warmer than usual
   (high of 41), and I had to pick up some stuff, so I thought I'd try
   bringing home a few bookcases.

   After driving home in winds that felt like the breeze off Lake
   Michigan in wintry Chicago, I'd have to say that driving on the
   turnpike with the top down in December is not a good idea.

   Having a glass of wine when you get home isn't a good idea either.
   Sleeepy...

   Sorry to [2]miss this..
