I'm left with 7 userpics. Wow. It's like been 3 years or something since I had less that a hundred! I'm sure I'll get over it though :p
So I woke up with a damn runny nose yesterday. So today I caved in and went to the chemist for some relief. Anyways, because it's Easter Sunday I'm driving around looking for somewhere open. I pull up at the local shopping centre and it's got those concrete blocks at the front of some of the parks, you know, to stop you driving forward onto the footpath? I always scrape them. I mean, these ones are pretty big. So anyways I don't care about scraping my little car on them because the bumper's just made of plastic really (not to mention my car looks like a piece of crap anyway... it's got a hail-damaged bonnet that is a different colour to the rest of the car... long story...). HANYWAY, this guy pulls up next to me and does the same thing.... SCCRRRAAAAPPPEE! I look over. I look down. Because he's driving a shiny brand new Lotus Elise. Hahahahahahaha! I just cracked up. It was such a bizarrely funny thing. So anyways I had to cover my face with a tissue and pretend I was blowing my nose because I couldn't stop cracking up and he was looking. Huh. Anyways, I thought it was hilarious. If I drove a car like that no WAY I'd have been as relaxed as he was... just got out with a grumpy face and strode into Subway. Huh. I wonder how much a new bumper for an Elise costs?? :D
Also had a fight on the phone with the Eagle Boys Pizza manager last night. They were charging public holiday surcharge on their pizzas. I say Easter Saturday is not a public holiday. Thoughts? Apparently they pay their staff time-and-a-half for Easter Saturday therefore they HAVE to pass on the surcharge. Which is fair enough but I still don't think it's a public holiday. Hmmmph.
