today kara and i moved a bunch of furniture around, and among other things we're going to ditch the coffee table and replace it with two small end-ish tables. also, i brought this busted-ass rocking chair, which i picked out of someone's trash, inside the house, and have begun what i suspect is the first in a series of half-ass repairs to a loose joint between an armrest and a leg. this particular repair effort involves an inner tube wrapped around the joint. i'm hoping that the addition of air will make the inner tube hold the two pieces firmly together. alas, however, i can't find my bicycle pump, with which to inflate said inner tube.
