1984

His and hers Ikea catalogues?  You betcha!  I couldn't have been more excited.  But then I got to thinking.  How did they know about me?  Oh, no, these weren't both addressed to The Swede.  No, one of them had my name on it.  I have never given anyone at Ikea my address, never used credit to make a purchase there, nor ever placed an order online.  Immigration wouldn't have reported me to Ikea, would they?  Nor any other government agency, right?  I can't imagine.  The only conclusion that makes any sense is that they are watching me, monitoring my every delirious trip to Ikea.  How else would they know I would like to have my own copy?
