In 2008, I hereby resolve to write something -- anything -- every day. Even if it means I'm the only one reading it. I need to start writing again, whether it's the mundane details of my life, or something more.

As a youngster -- so my parents tell me -- I would be put in my crib for bed, and once my door was closed, I would recite the details of my day into the darkened room. Well, this is my new darkened room. Except it's not dark. And it's not exactly a room. But, I'm going to give it a shot anyway.

Today, I made it to the new IKEA here. It was pretty cool, albeit a little overwhelming. I'll have to take some measurements and go back again soon.
