Planes, trains & automobiles

After the somewhat abysmal handling of 'The Luggage' situation by British Airways, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't extremely pleased to be home.

While away, I was able to sample the somewhat delectable delights of the Apple Mac. So impressed, I decided that my new mission in life, was to acquire one. So I figured I'd take a look at the website.....cor blimey chief.....how much?

For those that know me well, will know that when I decide that I would like something, I take my time, plan things carefully . There are some rumors flying around that I have slight impulse buying problem.....totally untrue

Anyway, so quite the conundrum, eh? Not so!

Being the super genius that I am, I come up with the all time classic solution. For quite sometime, I've been less than thrilled with the economy of my vehicle (SUVs are for the rich or daft). So, I pop down to my local Carmax, and get them to value my car.

I then locate a suitable replacement vehicle, and make the arrangements. So in a few days, I should not only have a new car, but with the equity in my current vehicle (which I have no finance on), I can buy the new car outright, and then have enough left over to buy me an Apple Mac!

Oh wow, I am sooooo excited. The stuff I'd been buying on eBay and Chefs over Christmas arrived today, so I've been playing with my new MP3 player, and trying to figure out where and how to put up my new magnetic knife holder thingy; and now, now I get to play with a new car, and a new laptop.

Wow.....2007 is off to a freakin' awesome start. I'm home for the new couple of weeks, and then I'm in Toronto for about a month. In the middle of that Canadian stint, I have a vacation in my favoritestestest place in the whole world, with my best friend.

It's kind of ironic; 2006 ended in a bad way; and 2007 starts in a great way

I'm really looking forward to seeing how much better this year can get.

Wishing you everything you want, readers.
