Specialis Revelio!

It's arrived at last! And I promise . . . no spoilers here.

And hence will begin a weekend of not moving whilst I devour the last Harry Potter offering. Turning myself occasionally to prevent sofa sores.

And not before time too, I might add - there seems to be a hoarde of people out there, determined to try and ruin it for everyone. You can't move for spoilers! No more though - the time has come for me to find out for myself!

This time though I will try not to injure myself. When I got Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, I sat for hours on my bed, cross legged with the book in my lap. When I sat up straight, something in my back gave way. After managing to stand up, I fainted. I won't be repeating that one . . . .

Feel the Pinkness!

OK, I have a little confession to make.

I know I bought a new plasma recently. And that was very extravagent.

But I have bought one more small gadget. I promise, it is small. And I did get a bonus last week.

So I bought something. Something shiny. Something pink. Something FUN!

Have you guessed what it is yet?

Yay - it's a Nintendo DS Lite! In PINK!



I love it. I am being sensible and buying (a couple of) games on eBay as it quite frankly is shocking how much those little cartridges are in "normal" shops. And my gorgeous Filofax, which is getting used every single day by the way, has come in very useful in listing the vast number of games I want to play, so I can cross them off as I find them for an absolute bargain on fleaBay. And it told me today on More Brain Training, that my brain is 28 years old! Impressive, considering yesterday it was 49 . . .

However, the pronounced girliness in me has espied this. A DS Lite that has been dropped into a vat of Swarovski crystals.



Now, this is a little excessive, even for me. But I crave a little sparkliness for my DS Lite. Just a crystal butterflly, or heart, tastefully done of course.

Any suggestions on design ideas?

And any suggestions on good games?!

PS. You wouldn't be getting the impression that I like gadgets? And girly things? Especially when said gadgets look girlie. Would you??!!
