I got my visa - no big deal -  ::)
LOL my biggest unexpected pleasure EVER!
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

But never fear, gentlemen; castration was really not the point of feminism, and we women are too busy eviscerating one another to take you on.

I actually have three.  My officemate bringing in candy and giving me some, getting prints of pics of me and df for the embassy (I threw in some of just him, since I usually just put pics on my laptop and don't get prints any more), and going through all our old emails for visa paperwork.  The old emails gave me warm fuzzies!   :D

One of dfs customers for his hosting business paid him £150 for using too much bandwidth...definitely unexpected, needed, and a pleasure! And its going into an account he can get the cash from, yay!

And, skittles here are just like skittles in the states..with the exception of the blackcurrent ones, but I didnt like the purple ones to begin with. ;)


Oh and I found oreos at sainsburys!! They are only snack packs of 4 oreos, pack of 4, but only 59p...I was just telling df the nite before it would be nice to have oreos..and wouldnt ya know it! :D

Remembering how much I love an album that I stuck on the IPod a while back and haven't listened to in AGES.

Yep I just spotted them at the little Indian store I was at last night in East Ham.  Just right there as plain as day!  I was like  ;D  cool.  But didn't get them.

My unexpected pleasure is not being too swamped this morning and waking up early enough to do dishes, finish packing, and get to work on time.  There were many inconvenient annoyances though....

I didnt realize what they were at first, I only saw them because I was looking to see if all the white chocolate digestives were finally sold out, which they were, and right next to where they used to be were the oreos..I think I made df almost jump out of his skin when I was like  OOH OREOS!! hahaha ::)

Finding a cute pair of black shoes, on sale even, that will go perfect with capris, since the weather is getting nicer.  A girl can never have too many black shoes... ;D
