I'm feeling a fair bit better, especially after I get up and all the crap in my lungs works its way to the bottom again.  Vic wanted to look at chairs in IKEA again, so we took the van over there.  This time we bought the one next to the one she'd liked last time, which wasn't the one we'd gone to see.  Aaanyway...

On the way home, we decided to go and blag a test drive in an electric Smart, as I've had some stupid stuff running around in my head for a while.  It's like driving a little go-kart that doesn't burn fuel.  I liked it, but was upset that the really cool orange colour in the brochure they have isn't available.  At all.

That lead us to stop at the Chevy dealer, where I test drove an electric Spark, which isn't available in the smart green that the gas version is.  As I was stuck with the sales guy, I didn't have as much fun in the Spark, but it looks like it'd be a lot more practical.  If I decided we needed another car, which I'm really not sure we do.

When we got home, we put together Vic's IKEA purchases.  I don't understand why people say this is difficult, I really don't.
