The other day was a pretty spring day. I had my first ever pasty, visited a new bakery-cafe and enjoyed a trip to a local park. Photos of the day can be found on flickr.

Speaking of photos, I'm feeling somewhat bummed at the moment. My dreams of purchasing a high end digital SLR camera have been put on hold (once more) thanks to the rather pricey repair of my car yesterday. Of course, fixing my car was a worthy decision as I need it for getting to point A to point B to point C. However, the timing feels a little wrong. I had just received back my tax money and was in a state of debating if I should treat myself to an iPod for working out, or a high end camera I've been coveting for some time. Well, the decision was answered as my car battery has been leaking battery acid fluid (yikes!) which was creating all kinds of havoc. Hmmm. I think I need more days like this one to put me back in good spirits.
