I got my first real salary this morning and it was 900 SEK more than I'd thought. Squee! Yesterday I went to town for two hours and bought gifts from Malin with money that I had borrowed from her, LOL! (Which I have no given back of course.) I almost got her this glass cat statue for 240 but in the end I got her a really beatiful Indian-looking gold and red schawl and a cappucino whisk that together cost as much as the cat. I had them gift-wrapped and we Malin opened them when we drank wine and ate from the never-ending birthday cake I made for the party on Saturday. She loved the gifts.
There was an odd moment when I told her I was planning on giving her the cat statue since it was more permanent and it was a big birthday. I said I wanted her to have something to remember me by thirty years from now. It's sort of me selfishly planting forcing myself upon her so that even if we break up or if I die I will always be present in the things I've left behind. I know, I'm spooky! Anyway, and then she said "Now I'll only have a broken wisk and some threads left when you are gone" which really broke my heart and made me feel guilty. She said it as one of her characters too, the innocent baby character, and she looked real sad. Then of course I told her I'd never leave her and that that imagery made me so sad. :-( And then we kissed and squeaked together for a while. ;-) (Yes squeaked. You gotta problem with that?)
Anyway, I also bought a really nifty top for myself. My parents gave me 400 in vouchers when I met them on Friday and I checked out what they had. I chose the top over two sensible and sexy read tops in my usual style. It cost 300 and wasn't really sexy nor sensible and not really my style either but I couldn't help myself! It's so cool. Squee! It's sort of a jacket-ish top without sleeves and a hood and a zipper that goes all the way. I tried to pull it down to my bra last night and it likes quite... ahem... "nice." ;-) It's darl grey, shiny fabric. And it's kinda baggy and stuff. *drools*
