need to go buy a bed.
But the more i look for shops, the more i don't feel like going.
but i really, really need to get me a bed.

first of all, i'll have to deal with sales people
Now i hate sales people. I know what i want, a bed. 140cm wide, not a king size
I want the head to go up. not electrically, manual will be fine

I don't want to have a classic looking bed, i want just something to hide the mechanics the frame with the sprung lats...

And i want one that is flush on the floor, so the damned cats can't get underneath to fight when i'm sleeping, or hide dead critters under my bed.

So i know what i want, just need to find a store that has that.
And that's where the problem starts. They all have crappy websites, they don't list much product, just the "specials"..
The cheap ass looking stores look cheap ass , list cheap prices and the products look like chit and i'm sure will be like chit for my bad back.
And the decent looking stores they don't list prices.
Not listing prices probably means "break your back trying to save up for the cash for a good bed for your back" ..

So now i gotta drive round them stores to see what i can find.. I hate it.

the whole ordeal would be more agreeable to me, if i somehow could be allowed to drink heavily throughout the process.
But other then the legalities of driving while chuggin' beer, there's also teh issue of coming home having bought something that really isn't what i was looking for.

That could range from either the wrong bed, to no bed at all, like , i dunno, a dirt bike.


The only positive side of this, is that i don't have to deal with wife or gf during all this... I will be going through the store, at speed.

Me : Sales guy ! , i want this this this this , do you have it?
Sales geek : no , but i have*
Me : stop, don't care, you don't have it, i'm out of here
Sales geek : but
Me : *already in the car*

Rick V 11-26-2011 02:04 AM

Take the 45, and try it again
You: I am looking for ....... do you have it?
Sales geek: No Sir but I can order it for you
You: thank you, call me when it gets here
Sales Geek: yes Sir, will be happy to Sir, thank you Sir

I know, that's why i need to get me a decent holster.

Rick V 11-26-2011 02:14 AM

No just tuck it in your belt, go in all gangsta

svandamme 11-26-2011 02:20 AM

With 8+1 rounds, It's heavy man... Either i gotta tighten my belt uncomfortably or the darn thing falls out

and if i tighten my belt, my fast draw is compromised...

Rick V 11-26-2011 02:24 AM

Do I need to send you a shoulder holster?

svandamme 11-26-2011 02:26 AM

Think i'll just go to fecking Ikea.
Might not be all i want it to be , might not be the best bed,
but at least i know what i'm buying before i get to the store,
the price ain't to steep and i can pretty much run through the store at speed.
And on the plus side, i get a construction set to build.

Rick V 11-26-2011 02:28 AM

:d

svandamme 11-26-2011 04:26 AM

screw shopping, went into my cave instead,
moved my bench around and bolted it to the wall so it don't wiggle no more , now the Dillon will be tiiiiiight.
Gonna put in some new electrics next
but first some window shades, don't need my neighbours to see my new activity through the window
and want the sun out so my bench doesn't discolor into pink(it has already, but i moved the pink side to the wall now)

Rick V 11-26-2011 04:37 AM

I hope it is at least a manly shade of pink

svandamme 11-26-2011 04:41 AM

near white ... had to take immidiate action.. flipped it around, now it's nice red again.

Rick V 11-26-2011 06:21 AM

Welp just had a nice 1.5 hour drive to the bank. It should be illegal to own a car like a 911. There is really no reason for a car like that on the street, gawd I love it

Porsche-poor 11-26-2011 07:07 AM

1.5 hours thats with traffic? Just kidding. You took a short cut right?

svandamme 11-26-2011 07:16 AM

No, he took a detour, the longest point between A and B = 911

Sounds like fun. Mine is tucked away for the winter. They have already sprayed de-icer on the road in front of my house twice.

pete3799 11-26-2011 08:02 AM

Got 10 inches of snow here Wed. so looks like the 911 is on vacation for the winter.

Porsche-poor 11-26-2011 08:13 AM
