One + 1 = Thr3e

I tested my willpower this morning. I tested to see how far I could push it, and well I failed. My attempt at self restraint was pushed to the limit and that limit was tested with a lamp. After walking through the whole of IKEA for the first time, I had got only what I told myself I would get. I was walking confidently towards the checkout with only the things that I needed when I saw the thing that would push me over my limit.

It was a simple green lamp. I already own a lamp. As a matter of fact, I own two. One is boring and crappy, but its been good to me over the last couple of years. The other is a lava lamp. Now the lava lamp hasn't worked for a long time, but it still takes pride of place on one of my bedside tables. But for some reason, I couldn't walk out of the shop without it. I didn't know why, but for some reason, I just needed it.

I'm very happy with the whole selections that I made at IKEA. My bedroom looks quite snazzy if I don't say so myself. I did spend the majority of my afternoon organising it, but now I feel better about the whole room. It looks so much better that what I thought it would.

Now, I just have to plan my next trip to IKEA. After walking through the show room, I kept seeing more and more things that I like. Only thing is, I need to have someone else with me, I don't wanna walk out with another lamp.
