deird1Have kept my unbroken streak of seeing Star Wars movies for the first time in the cinema. In this case, that means Kidlet Secunda has also been to her very first Star Wars movie. She slept through most of it, but watched a couple of scenes in fascination while I changed her nappy.
On that subject... HELL YES was that a Star Wars movie! WOO!
Life has been an endless series of Christmas events (including five different present opening occassions for Kidlet Primus). BUSY. We're now about to go away for a week with my family. Not sure if this will be relaxing, or extra busy. We shall see.
I have downgraded my phone (to a paper diary, an iPod, and a old-style mobile that actually makes phone calls as its primary function), and upgraded my car (to a hatchback with parking assistance, bluetooth, cruise control, and, oh yes, the ability to fit two children - kind of important, that). Very happy with both decisions.
Having so much fun dressing Kidlet Secunda up in pretty outfits. Girls clothes are fun! Plus, dresses are so much easier for nappy changing. I can see why boys used to wear them pre-toilet training.
The entire world has given me chocolate for Christmas. It's yummy, but not terribly good for me... Oh well... *munches*

Parking assistance is like that on fancier cars - but for mine, it just beeps when I get close to things.

Ah, the beeping. Very handy. Forwards too, or just reverse? I'd love forwards, but fear I'd never get into a park as the sensors would be on nonstop beep and I'd never dare to go in, despite it probably being overzealous...

2) not have ringtones
3) not have a working "home" button
So it got swiftly retired, and given to the kidlet to play with. :)
