If any of you are craving overpriced snacks or popcorn check out my Niece's fundraiser. All proceeds go towards buying her school a new basketball.

My current lease is almost up and gas is expensive and annoying to pump.
I've taken to saying "Tesla Wanker" whenever I see one drive past on the road. Not 100% sure why as I'm not particularly fussed about other people's car choices usually. But it's become a habit I can't seem to break.

Oh well.

I leased the new 2024 Model 3 in blue today. With tax incentives and no gas it's cheaper than my current lease. Plus, it was super fun to drive. Had PJ Radio on during my test drive. :D
