Ooh la la

On Tuesday I started the day in my usual day-off-from-work routine. Big bowl of 4 cereals mixed together, coffee, genmai-cha and UPN news. I pondered the state of my lemon Ford as I watched Springer, Montel and Maury. I set out in the afternoon with the aim of taking my car to a few dealerships to enquire about trade-in deals. Honda or Toyota, baby, Honda or Toyota, that's Kentaro's mantra. It's not like I WANTED a Ford in the first place. Just seemed to check out better than the other options we had back in buying time. I drove for half an hour south, past about 50 dealerships and car yards. I made a left on Broward Blvd and drove straight into downtown Fort Lauderdale. I parked on Las Olas Blvd and walked into a bridal shop. I disclosed my budget to the staff and was directed straight to the sales rack. The wedding dress of my dreams was brought before my eyes and I wept with delight to hear the drastically discounted sale price. Well, I didn't really cry but I sure am glad that the dress shopping is already over because it's not fun to do solo!!

It's a Christos design from last season, and is 80% off because it was worn once in a fashion show.

Woohoo!

Fiance, check, dress, check...
