When did I become a boring adult?

Phase 1 of our tax return hit the bank account today! Woo! State of Maine is QUICK this year, 3 days (Monday night to Thursday morning) from filing to money back.

I am going to buy a vacuum.

I am inordinately excited about this vacuum.

For one, it's PURPLE. :D For two, it is a Dyson DC25 Animal Cyclonic Vacuum with Ball. Super maneuverable. So I can go zooming around the house making vroom vroom noises (if the vacuum isn't on...). And I'm not paying full retail for it, thanks very much, refurbished will be fine, and save nearly $200.00. I've wanted a Dyson for a while... Finally have both justification and means to get one.

Then I have to actually use it more than once a month to keep on top of the kitty tumbleweed issues, but we'll work on that. Maybe I can vacuum the cats! hm... they may not have much fur left, if the commercials are to be believed... I'll just work on the floors.

You snagged a Dyson?! NICE!!!! I would love one of those for my house. If they made them in red, I'd most likely all ready have one. (Yeah... Impulse purchases due to color. That's me!)

I hate vacuuming with great passion, but a decent vacuum makes it nearly bearable.

Congratulations!

Don't worry about being boring. I'm not exactly the most interesting person ever. Sometimes the highlights of my days off include a trip down to AK Raw Fur, followed up by take out eaten in the parking lot of UAF's Musk Ox farm. During the summer, I park down by the river and watch the ducks.

They do, in fact, come in red. :D

And I think sitting and watching the ducks is lovely, not boring at all. :)

Oh my...
I wonder if the Free Shipping counts for Alaska? That would be a NICE vacuum to use.

The ducks are great. Even if some people do think they are boring, I do a lot of relaxing things like that. hehehe
