Someone who I hadn't seen in a long time was at dancing last night and we caught up.  I hope I'll see him Saturday too!  Same with plenty of other nice people.

Pram wheels had gone all wonky for some reason.  The past week they seem like new.  Come to find out FIL oiled them last weekend when Josh was staying over with them.  How cool is that!

Sailed through my interview this morning with flying colors!

Catching up with a colleague I haven't spoken to in years - and he now lives in London!  Hooray!

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.

It only took a week for the care package from my parents to arrive.  Usually it takes 2-3 weeks for me to receive anything from the States.

Getting a beautiful new laptop for a really great price on Dell outlet!!! It's lightweight- only 5lbs...the one I have now weighs a little over 10lbs. And it has a DVD burner.  :D

Getting the most awesome coat yesterday for my winter coat.  Fits me like a glove, is an authentic vintage 40s coat, the most beautiful color for me, and it cost LESS than the crap coat I got at Next last winter!!
