I bought a Daffodil Pin. Sinbrat would be proud.

I have had a productive, if somewhat illegal, day. The productive part is that I have bought new curtains (to replace Mum's which I recently returned to her) and they are now hanging up in the lounge and bedroom. The curtains I'm talking about are the lacy ones that go under the warm ones, so you can open your curtains without the world seeing inside. Hence, I now have natural light in both rooms. *g*

The illegal part is that I drove my car down there to buy them. I don't have a license. But, I have had my learner's permit for a couple years now and I know enough to be able to drive around the suburbs on a wet Saturday afternoon.

I also bought myself chocolate. It was on sale. Now, I have three of the big Cadbury blocks in my fridge (and one hiding in the cupboard). I don't know if they'll last the night. This is why I try not to buy snacks and bring them home. I have no willpower, so if I enjoy it, it'll be gone within a day. The same thing happens with cheese, which is why I try to keep it as a rare treat.

Woo! Good on you! *g*

Hee! Yeah, a true friend encourages you in your illegal exploits.

Although, since it was raining this morning, I drove myself to the station. I'm looking forward to driving home, instead of doing the ten minute walk.

It's just a case of I live alone, so I don't have anyone to take me for practice, and I'm a bit too tight at the moment to be able to afford lessons. Really. (This is rationalisation in progress. *g*)

heh....well you are doing better than me. I don't have a licence or a car. My rationalisation is that I'm doing my bit for the environment by using public transport *g*

Ain't rationalisations grand?

*applauds your environmental sensibilities*

Well, to be honest, the car was a bribe from mum (a "hurry up and get your license so I don't have to drive you everywhere" type of bribe)...

Rationalisation: A way of life... Heh. That seems remarkably similar to my icon... *g*

heh... my mum tried that with my brother. It worked, eventually.

How much of a dork am I that I only just clicked that you were probably congratulating me on my support of Cancer research fundraising? Heh.

That, too! ;)
