And what would any trip to Ikea be without the inevitable call to customer service?
The lamp I bought has no transformer, so no can plug into the wall. They're supposed to call back, and they will mail one to me. I'm not renting a car, or spending 4 hours on public transit, just to get a $40 lamp to work. :-p At least this time it was a small thing and not a large piece, which is the more typical experience with missing pieces.
We did find a table for the kitchen, as well as a reading chair for me. Both are assembled and working as promised (though I've not started restocking the kitchen shelves quite yet) with no problems in the assembly. Whee.
We also stopped off at an okay little Ethiopean place in Silver Spring for a late lunch/early dinner. Was a pleasant surprise in an otherwise depressing little semi-suburban business strip.
I'm sure I'll take pictures of the stuff, but not quite yet. Right now I just want a nap.
