Reckless Barter?

Yesterday was a very busy day for us. Mom got up in the morning to clean (OK, maybe I slept in while mom kick-started the cleaning) and when Mom woke me up she was in an extremely fowl mood, all angry and screaming and insulting.

So we cleaned up, dressed up and went to see a play ('Murder on The Menu'- produced by Raell Padamsee and directed by Karla Singh. It was fabulous.) Then Dad came home, and I was roaming the house in the Vietnamese traditional dress at Midnight. Scary, I know. Anyway, this is not really what the post is about. Just before we left for the play, the subscription copy of my favorite magazine arrived. This month was a gadget special. I expected the same old nonsense, iPod, Laptop etc. Yeah yeah I have it all. But when I opened the magazine, I saw this really really cute pocket video camera. Yes it was a little expensive, I don't have that kind of money at the moment. But it was Love at first sight. The camera was on my mind the whole time, and when we had reached the venue of the play I recklessly bartered my potential tattoo if my mom would buy me this camera (the camera costs of triple how much the tattoo would have!) now that mom has agreed, no more tattoo for me, and I am waiting to get my hands on that sweet camera! Mom was joking about how one issue of a magazine changed so much!
