Okay.  Serious question guys:  I bought a space heater for my apartment because I tend to lounge on the couch/don't care if the rest of the apartment gets cold, but if my feet get cold I get ultra sad (socks kinda work, but my feet have been broken a couple of times, so they don't generate heat or something?).  I have vaulted ceilings around 12' tall and it's pretty open-concept from living room to dining room to recessed kitchen.  Bedroom and bathroom are only areas I can 'close off'/close the door.  I feel like the space heater isn't doing that great of a job, but I don't want to kick up the thermostat since it'd then be heating a huge amount of space that I'm technically not in.

Thinking maybe return the space heater and grab a heated blanket instead?  Thoughts on people who have done this before?

Costco has awesome heated blankets. Get one.

Early timesheet SPAM.

Thank goodness I no longer have to do timesheets. 

+1, I suck at CAD.

I’m a certified CAD designer with an AAS in engineering technology. I DO NOT let anyone at work know that. I spent a decade of my life buried in CAD. I never want to touch it again.

if they're house booties, that means they've never been outside, so i don't see how that'd destroy your couch? 

Eh, they're house booties but they have treads/rubber on the bottom?  And unfortunately the apartment is furnished with really nice German leather furniture/think leather.  I don't want to ruin anything only 2-months into the lease.

@MadamPirate I actually bought the space heater from Costco!  And they're having a deal on the heated blankets this week, I think, so I think my Friday night is going to be returning that and buying some other stuff.  Also getting a mini-price refund due to the parchment paper I bought going down in price.  I keep buying stuff that goes down in price literally less than a week later.

I'm a terrible engineer who doesn't know CAD...I did it in college, of course, but when I started work, we had dedicated CAD designers so I never had to touch it. And I don't wanna.

Uhm...is that as exciting as it sounds?

I *was* pretty decent at it, but I just plain don't like it. I was spoiled in consulting because we were literally not allowed to do it and had to have designers/drafters do everything. Now I do some design but I'm in a terrible mood the whole time! :rotflmao:

Which probably explains the alcoholism. Tipple post? *hic* I mean triple post?

pfffft, you aren't alone.

We "took" it in my intro to engineering class, first semester freshman year. it was the first time they had taught it and it was like a 4 week module, maybe. and I bribed my project partner to do my CAD and I did his writing section (he had done CAD in HS, I didnt). And my company *typically* forbids electricals from having CAD and have us use the drafters.
