Shopping...
The reason I keep coming across anime stuff is that I'm cleaning up the dining/library area, which has served as a junk catchall for the past year, because over the next couple of weeks I'm moving my studio area into there. I did the IKEA thing today - there's been a store open in Frisco, about 45 minutes away, for 6 months now and I kept intending to go. Only got 2 things because I realized quickly that of the $300 I budgeted for this, I was going to ahve to have a good deal of that for the delivery, because even if they fit in my car there was no way I was going to be able to get them out on my own. :)
So I got this desk and this chest of drawers to start off the studio area. I was originally going to buy at least one more table and move the bookshelves over to the area where my work area is currently, but realized that if I didn't I could leave the bookshelves there and buy more bookshelves for the current work space and be a lot happier. And Target has some cheap 5-shelf bookshelves for sale, so I think I may be over there tomorrow.
This is a coffee table I've got my eye on - I like the storage, plus the ability to extend it if necessary. In black-brown, of course, not that birchy color.
I have no idea what I'm going to do with my current desk, which looks sort of like a Stealth bomber. IKEA wanted $60 to take it away, and ... I don't THINK so!

That weekend I've got the painting class on Saturday morning from 10-1, but I'm free that afternoon, and all Sunday, so any of those times is fine.

Okay, then, Sunday it is. Kidnapping friend-type-boy-creature for slave labor and driving relief; 6-8 hours driving is a killer, and I don't want it to be literal. Mom on not-strangling-grandma streak again... best to keep them apart. *eyeroll* Can I disown them and have you adopt me instead? I'd sell them for parts, but I'm not sure I'd get anything. (Wouldn't sell the brother, though. I've put too much time and energy into
warping him to my willteaching him to be a valued member of fannish society. He bathes. I'm so proud. *sniff)And it is after midnight and I have to get up early tomorrow... If I didn't like doing this to myself I'd quit, right?

Speaking of free, did you want me to pay for the desk, $10 or whatever? It wouldn't be a problem if you do. ^.^

It's not the best of monitors, I got it refurbished to start with, but it's big and the last time I checked, two months ago, it worked. :D
'Tis a good thing you're bringing help - I'm not sure my knee would thank me for crawling around under it at the moment. XD

Yes, still coming, and thank God for church, since everyone will be there instead of clogging I-35... Ah, the upsides to living in the south. XD
