I just want to publicly acknowledge some good customer service. I got an email today from GoGet (the car share we belong to) letting me know that there’s a new car available not far from us in Glebe, and that they’re doing a special rate on it for the next month. It’s going to save us like $60 on a day trip we’ve got planned. So “yay!” for saving money. I also like that all of their communications are really friendly and non-corporate, and they make me happy to be a part of such a successful local business.

Happy birthday to crumpet! She’s a blogger, an artist, a knitter, a beloved doggy-mama, and she makes a mean vegetarian chocolate pudding. And if you buy me a piece of art from her shop, you will make us both very happy. 🙂

Excellent. I just got a call today from the Ian Thorpe Aquatic Centre letting me know that their Adult Swim Classes are starting back up again. I was a little hesitant to spend the money ($200 for ten lessons plus unlimited use of the pool over those ten weeks) when we’re so broke, but I rationalized it to myself and the Snook thus: I am giving up Diet Coke. I know I tried that once before, but I’m serious this time. I spend at least $10 a week on Diet Coke, so I figure it’s a good sacrifice for the class. I start a week from Thursday! (But the Diet Coke prohibition starts NOW.)
