armoirification

The antique dealer called on tuesday morning to cancel because of the rain, and since then, I've been more than a little nervous that we were getting ripped off. After all, we had already written a check for half of the money and it had been promptly deposited. I guess I need to have more confidence in my fellow man (and woman), because it was delivered promptly this morning, as promised! I actually had a dream last night that the antique dealer showed up with a faux wood armoire and tried to pass it off as the one that we had bought. When confronted, he admitted that it wasnt the same one, but would we like it for 100 euro?! I know, I need to lighten up a little.

Anyway, two very tired looking guys knocked on our door at 8:15, having carried the damn thing up all the stairs. It made my complaining about carrying a table and wine up seem a little ridiculous. They scooted it in, sliding it under the door with about 2 cm to spare, then brought up the doors, shelves and cornice. Theres nothing else to say really, except that its magnificent. I'll post pictures when I get back from work.
