Nice things

I was shopping with a dear friend the other day when I was overcome by a paroxysm of laughter and had to keep my mouth tightly shut and shoulders shaking like someone on the way home from a rave until we left the record shop that we were in.

At which point I turned to her and said, 'Shop attendants can be so unkind.'

She raised an eyebrow. 'Oh yes?'

'Oh yes. For instance, if I had to place a sticker that says "I'm cheap! Buy me now!" somewhere on a CD cover, I would not do so beside the words "Amy Winehouse".'

In other news, HAPPY BIRTHDAY [personal profile] who_la_hoop ! It's hard to think of you growing up my dear little Hoopie, but if ever I were to have a secret lovechild I would want her to be just like you. Talented, clever, inquisitive and bold are all things to celebrate! I hope that you have a wonderful year and that you are currently being stuffed senseless with very good cake.

I really should get that on a tshirt. Although I have seen the record store staff stick them on their own shirts - I may have made an offer or two, but apparently cheap does not mean blind and without judgement. ;)

Cunning staff :D

LOL

Darling - you're not cheap, but you can be had, I suspect.

:D

See. Now that's exactly where I would've put that sticker.

Yes, but you have children, so you can't get all your evil out at home ;-)

Ha! Oh ye of little faith.

I am surprised you do not have a secret lovechild. I can just imagine you falling madly in love with an Italian hunk who takes you to his gondola where you makes sweet, tender love but then you run away into the night...
*note to self* must not let imagination run away with no pants on.

My point being, I don't believe you. *glares*

Hee! Thank you! I am indeed eating a lot of good cake. Also chocolate. Washed down with lots of Pinot. Birthdays are not days for diets. *grins* I suspect that each year I actually grow a little less mature, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing! :D

I have never seen a 'I'm cheap! Buy me now!' sticker, but now I kind of want to
