Amras and I have a weakness for what we have taken to calling ‘pizza moments’. The term comes from a comic strip called Catana Comics (if you haven’t seen them check them out it’s adorable) – and basically means we’ll balk at spending $15 on silverware, but will gladly spend $20 on a large pizza. Perhaps not the best thing to have a habit of doing, and we try to watch our tendency towards it, but to our credit our “pizza purchases” tend to be things we’ll actually keep rather than well…real pizza.
For example my usual strain of ‘pizza moment’ is the tours I still go on in port. Yes, they are expensive, but they are – after all – experiences that will last a life time. My lower quality ‘pizza moments’ tend towards less exotic things like brightly coloured clothes and crazy shoes. But I digress.
Rarely, do Amras and I have a joint pizza moment. So I was rather surprised when he got back from port this afternoon bearing ….a PlayStation 3. Used of course, and acquired at a very good price. But…definitely a pizza moment.
A totally awesome pizza moment.
Especially since I was stuck on IPM all day, and was exceptionally grumpy about it; and was all around having a rather …lousy afternoon.
Especially since with said system, he also got Call of Duty 4, Fallout 3, ….and …GOLF! Seriously, I have not played computer golf since I was a kid playing with my parents. I had totally forgotten how much fun it was…and how completely addictive it could be.
I still…definitely need to work on my swing. But by the end of the night hey, I had earned enough experience points to get myself a pretty awesome golfer outfit..
What? We make our own fun out here..
I love Catana Comics. They are so often exactly like we are. Master has pre-ordered their book. So glad you got to end the day on a high note doing something fun.
