On Thursday (the day of my last accurate post) my friend Tam and I drove a couple of hours up to VA to pick up our bed. (Kevin was out of town until Friday night, so I wanted to get it home/together to surprise him!) We finally got home around 7 pm, and because I didn't want to steal anymore of his day, I took Tam straight home. I was supposed to pick our friends Josh and Tina (who were coming down to visit from NY this weekend) up from the airport at 10 pm, so I thought I'd use the time in between to put the bed together. It can't be that hard, right? Right.
Ugh. Beds are NOT designed to be assembled by only one person! I was balancing the ends of the sideboards on knocked over laundry baskets to get everything to fit, and then I realized I was missing a part. I had to pick my way out of my mess and go to Home Depot. I finally got back home with the part and got everything together...just in time to find out that Josh and Tina had been so delayed in their first flight that they were going to miss their connection and were going to have to fly into Raleigh instead of Greensboro. Then they had to drive 1 1/2 hours at midnight. Yikes. So I posted the photo of the bed on here and then crashed into it, only to get up at 2 am to welcome them in! I was so glad they made it safely!
Friday was quite the day. We started at a bar at 5:30 pm, and didn't make it back to my place until 3 am! Can you see why no picture was posted on Friday?! The picture below is from sometime that night; I'm guessing it was taken before midnight! Left to right are Josh, another friend Melissa, Tina, me, and Kevin. We had a blast hanging out at Melissa's house, playing drinking games and poker. Our butts were dragging the next day, but it was totally worth it!
