It's okay, I've done it before.

I promised myself that when I got my new job, I'd spend a little money on me, not the kids, the pets, or on petrol.

I saved up for more art and new manga and today I ordered the last of them. Part of this haul is an early anniversary present (16 Aug) and some of it is to keep me entertained when Mr Nursedarry goes back to Afghanistan in November.

I also had jtsbbsps_dk on Skype and geri_chan's fic enabling me...*cough* So, I'm now the proud owner of Vols. 1-5 of Haru Wo Daiteita (yes, Vol. 5 has that film in it:). Plus I may have bought jtsbbsps_dk's, delphipsmith's, and cassie_black's Christmas presents.

*pauses to hide from faithwood*

I also got the final piece of my three favourite stellamoon pictures:



Happy sigh..

Quick post as I'm trying to get the rest of the housework done before sitting down to Top Gear and my Waitrose treacle tart (they make the best ones) and a lovely cup of tea (not to be confused by the real thing:) If only I had some Cookies and Come® ice cream to go with it...(thanks for that, leo_draconis).

Huge foot-long thanks to sra_danvers, joan_waterhouse, drippingcherry, leo_draconis, melusinahp, cassie_black12 - have a nice cold beer to go with those.

And many thanks to jtsbbsps_dk and maja_li for rekindling my love affair with yaoi. Since I don't play in Camelot, and we've all been a bit bored post meet-up, it's been great to get back to Japan. I may have just spent a little money on the DVDs of my favourite OVAs as I'm tired of watching my not-so-great downloads (there was a reason I didn't watch these for so long). I'm rationalising the expense as useful diversions whilst Mr NurseDarry is next on deployment. What I can't explain away so easily is my decision to buy a manga comic based solely on the fact that one of the characters wears glasses....well, that and the cover has Explicit Content written across it.

Next week is my last week in my current job and in my diary tomorrow, all it says is "Leaving Lunch at the pub with 20 people". I've also got the twins' sports day on Thursday so watch out for pics of that. Or run away, whichever you're more inclined to do :D

Right, so back to my hd_fan_fair fic later and I might be writing a short sequel to Was It Something I said, which is all treacle_tartlet's fault.

Cheerio for nao!

And go Netherlands!
Balls.
