I am now the proud owner of five complete and uncut (bootleg...shhh!) seasons of Sailor Moon, as well as the three feature length movies~ *Squee!* There was a tense moments on Tuesday when I received the package and ripped it open in excited glee to discover to my dismay that the boxset packaging that they sent me didn't match the pretty ones advertised on the site which I thought I was getting, and for a while I was pretty miffed thinking that they'd sent me the wrong versions. After a couple days of sleuthing out these mystery boxsets on the interweb though and comparing DVD id numbers, it turns out they most likely are the right versions, but the manufacturing company (MAC) changed the design. So they're not as pretty as wanted them to be, but the quality should be there. *Is satisfied.*

We have employed a new maid in our apartment. He's tiny and orange and does a good job at getting those hard-to-reach dust bunnies that breed under our bed; and his name is Roomba, our brand new iRobot vacuum! (Affectionately nicknamed SlaveBot.) We got him on sale at Canadian Tire for a reasonable $220 and I don't think I'm ever going to go back to a hand held vacuum. You just push the Clean button and walk away and he does his happy little beepy sound and goes about cleaning the entire room (carpet and hard floors); and when he's finished he automatically finds his way back to his docking bay again to recharge~ He's adorable! :3

Speaking of awesomeness, I received my tax rebate cheque in the mail this week and it was twice as much as I though it would be! When I filed my taxes it said I would be getting $1600 and the cheque turned out to be for more than $2600; apparently I forgot I had some left over school tuition credit so they tacked that on. There only thing better than knowing that you have a cheque coming in the mail full of money is that cheque arriving and being for even more shiny money~ I always use a small portion of my tax rebates to buy myself a present -- that's what Sailor Moon was this year -- but now that I have this extra thousand dollars I may or may not also go out and buy a new, bigger filing cabinet that I'm in desperate need of, but I'll have to wait to see if I get it for my birthday first or not.

*Gasp!* And I finally finished paying off my $9000 credit line for my car (with help of aforementioned inflated tax rebate!) I am officially DEBT FREE. *Confetti rains down.* *Mastercard proceeds to bombard her mailbox with monthly bills.* D:
