IKEA Day

For those of you interested in going to IKEA on Saturday, the trip is still on. (For those of you not interested, we're actually going to Neptune.)

I'd like to suggest we all meet at IKEA at 10 AM as that is when they open. I'll have a 6'x12' trailer on the Pathfinder (I'm going to try to reserve one now. I'll let you know the size soon) and should have some extra space even after filling it with what [livejournal.com profile] allegedly is getting. If you have something you want to get that you'll need the hauling space for or just want to go to IKEA, please do!

I cannot remember if we're bringing a 4th person in the Pathfinder. Please let me know if we are.

Let me know if you'll be there, it should be a fun day of IKEA wandering. It isn't supposed to snow until later in the day.

Can I assume you have no Ikea near you, that this is going to be An Excursion(Tm)?

[identity profile] emilytheslayer.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
It's not *that* far away, so I don't know if Excursion is correct. It's more of a sally.

Well, it isn't that far away, but for bigger things a bigger vehicle is needed. IKEA is around 20 miles away.

20 miles away is NOT far...

Oh, how I miss Jersey diners...

It is very likely like the midwest IKEAs.

[identity profile] wizardru.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:35 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a function of all Ikeas. It's a design intent, actually. They know some people travel a LONG WAY to get there and might be there all-day, in some cases...so they make sure to have good food, especially breakfast.

I am big fan of their meatballs...and yes, I like lingonberries.

Fortuately, I know all the shortcuts by now.

And the eating place is actually smack in the middle, right before you head downstairs.

[identity profile] wizardru.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 06:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Not at ours...or rather, it's at the midpoint, but there are plenty of shortcuts to get where you wanna go. :)

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Want to come along then?

[identity profile] mekkasimian.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 06:38 pm (UTC)(link)
MRS-SIMIAN SPECIFICALLY WANT GO FOR SWEDISH MEATBALLS (WITH LIGONBERRY JAM) IN IKEA CAFETERIA.

=M=

We'll likely lunch there, but not first thing. Midpoint.

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 09:17 pm (UTC)(link)
You have Mek!

[identity profile] head58.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
ooh, Neptune!

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:34 pm (UTC)(link)
How are you replying to this at 4:34 AM?

[identity profile] allegedly.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I have you both at 4:32/4:34 PM!

[identity profile] head58.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I have that too. If only LJ had some technical staff, they might be able to fix this!

[identity profile] allegedly.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Ha!

[identity profile] urnesha.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
*rofl*

[identity profile] emilytheslayer.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:41 pm (UTC)(link)
? His timestamp says 11:32, sweety.

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:43 pm (UTC)(link)
The email notification I got for it said 4:34 AM

[identity profile] emilytheslayer.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, the email notification I got for this comment says 7:43 pm, but I bet you it's right on the actual entry.

[identity profile] allegedly.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Weird! Because in the actual entry is where I'm seeing the 4:30 pm stuff.

[identity profile] emilytheslayer.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Huh. We must all be on different servers.

[identity profile] allegedly.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Either that or I'm set to a different timezone by mistake. (Which I doubt?)

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:44 pm (UTC)(link)
In a Tralfamadorian way or a Quantum Leap way?

[identity profile] head58.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
I was thinking Tralfamadorian.

[identity profile] allegedly.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm 99% sure that anyone who wanted to go is on both of our friends lists, but I'll repost just to be safe.

No 4th person in the Pathfinder based on any conversations I was present for!

[identity profile] empress-schwa.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 06:22 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll be going!

Are you planning on eating first, or doing the upstairs first and then food, or no decisions yet?

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 07:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No decisions yet!

[identity profile] head58.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
Could you pick us up a bag of meatballs?

[identity profile] lynxreign.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 07:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I certanily can.

[identity profile] a-akimbo.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Ooh!! IKEA days...those are my favorite! Have a piece of princess cake for me and buy something practical and well-designed and cheap!

[identity profile] originalcatfood.livejournal.com 2009-01-09 02:59 am (UTC)(link)
I'd much prefer Weasel Stomping Day
