Some Helpful Advice From Ikea

It was spring cleaning day at the Scooter and Pooteewheet household today - we're just that far ahead of the curve. Mainly this involved finding plastic totes, buying two bookshelves at an extremely crowded Ikea (picture of Eryn hammering a bookshelf below), and then organizing everything out of the basement bedroom into said totes and bookshelves and several great big piles of donatables and trash/recycling.

However, the most important thing gained today - the sage advice from Ikea that one should not hump one's bookshelf, otherwise it might break.



Here's a more family-friendly photo of Eryn and me putting together the white Ikea "Billy model" bookshelf for her room. She also sank the screws herself, so she really did most of the non-lifting work alone.

It's just strange. What else could that crazy scandrawing mean?

Pooteewheet is pretty sure this is how the guy who broke her office bookshelf, who said he "sat" on it, actually broke the bookshelf.
