Look What We Did
Hee hee

And, it survived the whole ride from South San Jose to SF without blowing off and causing a crash on the highway. In fact, you will be very impressed to know that I drove exactly 60mph the whole way and used my special g-force reducing “patient with severe pain in the back of the ambulance” skillz while taking corners.
This marks the first time I’ve ever hauled anything on the roof of the Jeep! Threats have been made before to stow both the boyfriend and the dog up there at times, however those are generally hollow (though Earl just informed me that Mitt Romney actually made his dog ride on the roof! yikes
… what an asshole).
Never before have I been so much my Father’s Daughter as the moment today where I corrected Earl on the proper knot-tying methods and procedures of Tying Things to the Roof.
We bought two bureaus! And looked at a bunch of beds and couches. A few of those we liked, but decided to sleep on it before plunking down.
Oh, also, we ate this today while on a between-furniture-shopping lunch at this drool-inducing place in Los Gatos:

Yes, it was every bit as good at it looks.
Tomorrow we are unpacking (ugggh) and then having friends over to BBQ on the patio in the afternoon. Grilled meat and beer: bring it on.
Happy 4th, Everyone!
