Money comes, money goes..

Yesterday was the first time in ages I went out for a walk. I walked an hour and felt pretty damn good when I got back home. So I decided to do it again today, now try a little jogging as well because it felt yesterday that I have more to give when it comes to speed and stamina. So the training continues. And so it happened that I made quite big online order.. It was dripping rain last night, so I came to conclusion that I need a decent jacket for my running hobby this fall/winter. And new sportpants, but only because they were on sale.. And since I' m going to look stunning after all this running, of course I ordered a couple of new shirts as well. They were also in sale. The thing is that actually I don't have the money for these clothes. But luckily the products I ordered weren't all available right away, so I decided to wait until they all are and get the package first then. So waiting for a week 50. And waiting for my tax refund. So it's all taken care of. :)

Today I went down town for a quick visit. I saw a commercial last night that there would be Christmas opening in the shopping centre.. So I thought there would actually be something to see.. Maybe it was just me who was impatient or there wasn't any proper program.. However, it was alright to get out from home and see some people. I even found new headphones for my iPod. Now I'm just wondering if I should reset my iPod because it isn't working as it should. It plays the music alright but the turning-on is a bit complicated.. I'd love to buy me a new iPod but THAT I can't afford. Anyway, when it comes to music, I was glad that I didn't hear one Christmas carol while at the shopping centre.

I've had the habit for the past few years, that I'll buy myself a Christmas present from my tax refund. This year I haven't come up with any idea what to buy. I don't have ideas even for what I wish for Christmas. Or what to buy for others. I've made some small presents but the idea was that those would only complete and personalize the actual presents. The problem with me isn't so much what to buy for me since I'm a sucker for music and books. The problem is that I'm pretty picky with what I read or listen. Like this one Christmas present I got... I also like to watch movies on my sparetime. And I do like Jack Black (among many others). But I don't like Nacho Libre, one of Jack Black's movies. I'm not a huge fan of stupid comedy movies. I basically hate every single one of Steve Martin characters. And don't even try to make me watch Mr. Bean.. When I mentioned that I like Jack Black I was referring to films like High Fidelity, School of Rock, KungFu Panda, Waterworld... I like the intelligent Jack Black, with the high class humour.. Not Jack Black in turquoise thights.

I am not only picky when it comes to movies, music or books. It is a problem when watching tv as well. Well, it's not a problem when I am alone at home 'cause then I can watch whatever I want. But for example, I don't follow (probably never really have..) any Finnish tv-series.. I can count those Finnish movies I like with one hand... I am a fan of action movies. I also like fantasy A LOT. And that goes with my books as well.. Maybe I should make a list of books, to my blog, that are missing from my shelf.. Just in case if someone wants to get me present that is truely appreciated... Hmm, I suppose that's not a bad idea..

Anyway, should maybe do something useful for a change.. L8r allig8r!
