I have a Mac Mini

It's pretty exciting. I am using Safari, which makes every familiar website look a little odd (Facebook looks an awful lot better), and iTunes, which is fantastic because I haven't listened to my music for about a month now and I'm just realising how much I've missed it. 

This week I have also managed to acquire:

• my bike! It is all fixed and lovely. I've really missed being able to bike to work, weird as that sounds. The Church Corner guys did a great job (shameless plug).
• a functioning heater that makes my room bearable (or warm if I'm being indulgent).
• a soft-toy of the Cookie Time monster/mascot. It is red and sparkly and AWESOME. I'm a bit of a soft-toy fan, and I've wanted one of these since I was about 4, because they're spectacularly weird and cute. When I was a kid they didn't make a soft-toy of the mascot: childhood-me was extremely disappointed. This week someone at work was selling it for peanuts. Woop!
• a yak scarf. By which I mean a scarf made from yak wool and lamb's wool, rather than a scarf that is for a yak. It's reddy-yellowy yum and incredibly soft and made by exiled Tibetans living in Nepal and surprisingly affordable (and that's about as many "ands" as I should ever use in one continuous sentence).
• a pendant made from an old-school wooden Scrabble tile. 

Pictures will be forthcoming once I've found a spare USB port on my compy (I suspect it will require a USB hub).
