$250

There are many different ways I could spend $250, for instance:

• A day at the spa (okay, maybe a half day)
• A new bookshelf (which I really need)
• A barbeque (which I really want)
• A new suit for work
• Okay, maybe just a new jacket for work
• Funky leather boots (which I also really want... I now live in a country where its cold enough to wear boots in the winter, but NO salt stains because there's NO snow!)
• A chair for my living room
• A new bikini with a matching sarong and perhaps some beach sandals
• A new eyeliner, mascara, lipstick and some concealer (scary to think that that would add up to $250, but it would!)
• Some cute new tops for going out
• A month's worth of one to one personal training
• 400 million pounds of chocolate
• A really funky sports watch
• Nice casual pants (in this country it could cost me almost $250 for one pair, but maybe I could find a sale and get two in different colours)
• Half the tuition for a writing course.......

I could go on and on. And on. Funny how my wish list never gets shorter...

But having listed all the things I want, what did I spend $250 on?

Bette Midler.

Does that answer seem like odd man out to the above list? Yeah? No kidding. Yet somehow, that's what I spent it on. Was she good? Yeah she was alright, but I don't think $250 to hear her sing The Wind Beneath My Wings and The Rose was really good value for money...

And to think I wouldn't spend $125 on the Eagles!! There is no logic in my life.
