The Schoolyear of Scott

I have a love/hate relationship with IKEA.  Actually, its more like a eh/despise relationship.  When I was little, I remember going to IKEA with my parents (at Potomac Mills Mall…what a drive that was!) and they would put me in the ball-pit while they shopped.  Obviously, the trauma has not worn off.

Nearly all of my apartment is furnished by IKEA, so I can’t 100% hate on it, but out of the 10 or so pieces that I have from the store, only three are still in perfect working order.  Now, I admit, I am somewhat to blame for these pieces falling apart: the majority of my IKEA construction took place the day after I graduated from Emory and I was basically operating on no sleep.  The majority of the blame, though, falls on one person, and what a tool (pun!) this guy has turned out to be.

The blame falls on the IKEA Man.

I have a confession to make.  I’m about to come clean (pun!) on something that I have hidden from many people for a while.

I have a maid.

Not only do I have a maid, but I have a man maid.

I have returned from the aforementioned cruise and will be writing about it in a series of posts in the coming days, so stay tuned. If anyone would like to volunteer their services for a massive laundry undertaking, I am currently in the need for help!

I’m heading out for the aforementioned cruise this morning, so the blog will be on a bit of a break until January 5th or so. Have a Merry Christmas, Happy Channukah and a Happy New Year!

So today is my last day as Development Coordinator at Starlight Children’s Foundation.  In honor of this occasion, I thought it would be fun to look back – reminisce, if you will – on some of the more interesting things that have occurred here the past two and a half years:
