Indulgence 

Went shopping today with my grandma, in search of reefs for Vanuatu (or rather a cheap Masseur copy), a birthday present for my friend and to check out some digicams. No luck with the reefs, but I bought some dark chocolate and my first colourful underwear.

Finally I am a woman.

No seriously, I have never bought undies for myself before. I never understood the lure of cool knickers because after all, who's going to see them except me, grandma and my mother? (in the laundry, you sickos) But Target was having a sale and there were pretty colours, so now I am the proud owner of purple, pink and orange underwear.

Not like you wanted to know. Moving on...I wanted to satisfy my chockie craving, so in a fit of gastronomical adventurousness, I bought myself a bar of Lindt 85%. I remembered reading somewhere that dark is the real macho fair dinkum bona fide chockie not like that sissy milk stuff. Talk about insane. It's like introducing yourself to alcohol by drinking concentrated metho. The first bite was so bitter I practically spat it out, but now I'm getting used to it and it's growing on me. I can understand why people like it. It's like a chocolate espresso. Great if that's your thing, but I think I'll stick with my sissy Cadbury, thanks. Though if you're a connoisseur, suicidal or stupid inquisitive, you can try the "Noir Infini": 99%. Might as well hook yourself up on a chocolate IV line.
