And I don't even like kids or dogs!<br /><br />I am SO impressed by your ability not to buy anything, but possibly more so by your refusal of free champagne. I didn't know if was possible to refuse free alcohol ;-)<br /><br />I do find myself getting more fussy and refusing to buy things as I get older and savvier. I can't claim this is due to wisdom though. I'm just tight and won't pay over the top for shoddy crap.Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11337968500120821387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4185133934790891461.post-3940081716463302502011-03-11T13:50:45.475+00:002011-03-11T13:50:45.475+00:00I'm so happy for you, you've made me feel ...I'm so happy for you, you've made me feel all warm and fuzzy.
