Train tickets to see Opal Fruit.

It's her birthday today, so I'll be handing over my presents. I'll be with her for the rest of the week - and we might go out to a nearby zoo, depending on how we feel .

Is Opal Fruit your girlfriend? Hope you have a good time!

Bought a Djungelskog (or, as Moony lovingly misremembers: Dundelstorf) at IKEA in our last trip there. He had not been sold in the US for many many years and it was a big surprise to finally see him there. Had to get 'em!

[Mr EliteL]

@ShiraNoMai Wow, oh my that's a big boy. Where will he be placed in your home, or maybe you'll place him in different places to lounge about for a while. Perhaps Mars will take a liking to him and sleep on top. I prefer the look of the smaller panda you have there though (not saying big boy is bad, it's still good), and is that a third soft toy there beside it or just something else?

Ah, so this is what prompted you to ask me what Opal Fruit was. I forget if I answered you at the time with the actual answer but yes I believe that's the username of @Kyng's girlfriend.


@Mr EliteL: The big bastard lives on our couch and will probably stay there all the time since we have enough space to have him on it unless visitors come over (which is like never). There wasn't another plushie in the cart but that might be a kitty themed pillow we grabbed next to it, but I'm not confident on that.


Not really a notable purchase I'd usually care to mention but I paid off the first two installments of my college fees for this semester and smoothly annoyingly was late both times. The first time added a $100 penalty onto my fee; I don't think my second payment added a punishment fee and I hope not because otherwise that'll be another $100 I've pissed away.

As exciting as it is, I am a bit nervous. I hope I'm not going to disappoint them, by being a different person in real life from online!

How'd it turn out @Kyng?


Not an upfront cost but we just had to sign up to a $16,000 loan to get a new A/C unit because ours is finally in a poor enough state that it isn't worth continuing to get it maintained. Fortunately they'll put the new one in this Saturday and we know we can pay that loan off easily but it's still a lot of money. XD

I hope it goes well! I’ve met loads of online people in my time and I’d say 98% of them were very much how I expected them to be. We won’t talk about that 2% though

Yeah that A/C sure is an investment huh. Hopefully we’ll see electric bill decreases soon enough as a result of this.

It's me. I'm the 2%.

Oof, that $16k air con. Was the old one from when you got the place? I'm not expert on them obviously so no clue how long they last and just wondering how it was when you moved there.

Haven't really purchased anything, it is getting to the unbearable time of year of heat and even though it doesn't last long, maybe it's time I get something new to deal with the hot days. Or just settle with my little handheld fan again.
