If I had that much money with which to be vindictive, I would. But I don't. In an incredibly weird coincidence, last night I was informed that I may be sent to Sydney next weekend (free). quote: @Rachael - that's if you can find me. Chay still hasn't.

I spent money on buying a drink I didn't really need because I needed coins. I spent said coins on a new car wash thingy which left my car sparkling and fantastic! This would only be the 2nd time I've washed my car this year as I don't think I need to due to water restrictions. I'm surprised the dirt caked on wasn't that hard to get off. MMmm shiny.

So, you are washing your car to spite water restrictions?I don't see the point unless you own an Audi or something.

Yep. Rationing is a ridiculous approach to managing a resource. As an aside - hats off to Audi's marketing department. They seem to have cultivated quite the reputation among folks who know nothing about cars.

@Ben: Ahhh.. I should explain. My moronic boss drives an Audi and he gets it "hand washed" at least once a week. He is a man-child who gets paid too much by DADDY who owns the business. That was a reference that only I got. But, you're right, I know nothing about cars.

Today I spent sixty quid getting the fucking window in the fucking driver's door of my fucking car fixed. Fucking thing decided to fuck up, and I spent all fucking afternoon yesterday in sweltering humidity with flies crawling all over me trying to re-attach the fucking actuator mechanism. Why the fuck doesn't some bastard design a car to have internal components that are actually fucking accessable instead of encasing shit within a welded prison so you can't fucking get at it.Fuck.

Today I bought The Nanny season 2 for my friend since she loves that show and she's finishing TAFE today and I'm going to see her exhibition tomorrow so I figured since I got her season 1 the other day when it was on special and she was unable to get to the shops due to final preparation, I'd get her season 2 as a present. I hope somebody liked her exhibition today, then she can get employed and get lots of money and buy me things...Or live out her career dream..whatever..

I love that ad. Sony has great creatives.Anyway, I'm not going to Sydney any more, so I went on a small spree yesterday. Now I have a new dress ($180- inexpensive), sunglasses shaped like hearts (I'd like to see you say no to those), an amusing clutch purse (it's a tapestry of some weird country with too many consonants in the name!) and more cleanser, moisturiser, exfoliant ($160, ouch). At least I can clean my skin with France.
