4.30pm Friday

Ah ha, you are reading this expecting pearls of wisdom and things of arty farty significance. Sorry, basically this will be what ever happens to be in my brain and as it is 4.30pm on a Friday, that won't be much.
I have however managed to hold out against the call of chocolate bars and shopping today, despite being down on the streets in the real world during my lunch break. The weather was indeed harsh and cold, the means streets were indeed mean, but I was heartened by a gentleman who offered to take me for a turn around the town on the grounds it would be most refreshing.
Total expenditure: $12.00 for two dark hot chocolates. (Not shopping but necessary nourishment for the soul).
Shopping and chocolate are my weaknesses. I confess this readily and unfortunately despite all attempts to better myself, they constantly bring about my downfall.
Why do I vex myself so? And how can I bring myself back into good temper?
Is it home time yet?
