Wow.
My uncle Eddie gave me $20 for my birthday. The crazy-cool thing is his birthday was a couple weeks before mine and he didn't seem the least bit fazed that I didn't get him anything.
My mother got me some shoes. It's week #2 and they seem to be doing well. I'm hard on shoes, so my mother says, and so week 2 is a start...they feel sturdy though, honestly...it's hard to tell though, my $15 WalMart shoes lasted only 6 months and might have felt this same way...
My gramma took me and my two uncles out to eat at a Casino buffet. The food was Ok in general, I seem to be the only person there who didn't care for the steak. I pretty much pigged out on egg rolls, which were amazing.
My sister gave me $29 in Amazon funds, which I spent on E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial and a movie I had been wanting to see but am too much of a wuss to rent as a new release and am too impatient to wait for it to go into the old release section, neither of which matters b/c it was on super-sale, $8.99 + $2 S&H ($11), and I can probably/maybe get $7 or $8 from it after I'm done w/ it, since the sale won't last forever, you know. Plus I don't have to worry about late fees 'cause I OWN this thing, beach! I also used $9 of it to buy an mp3 album that I wasn't able to listen to entirely for free online b/c my internet seems unfit for streaming music as of late. It can do OK for like a minute or maybe two. Different websites I visit have different settings and such, so it may be OK if I subscribe to Rdio again...dunno. Oh, and I also bought two songs by Deftones.
The money Eddie gave me is in my mom's possession until she actually HAS the $...in other words, she owes me about half of it b/c the household funds somehow ran out too quickly for all the RX needed to be had w/o any glitches...the rest of it I spent at Hastings on a CD that I SWEAR (for the 5th? time) that I won't re-sell (for the 15th time) and a movie rental?....or...ugh...what was that? OH! Yeah, I bought a movie that was on clearance, it might be an old release by now, bought & paid for price was $2.13 w/ tax ($1.99 w/o). Still hoping someone buys it from me via Amazon eventually, since I watched all I care to see of it already. Plus I bought a portable bottle opener, which was intended I guess to act as a keychain. I had to take the keychain part of it off though so I could affix the bottle opener part to my existing - and absolutely fantastic! - GHOSTBUSTERS: THE VIDEO GAME keychain that I got at Hastings as a freebie/promo...thank goodness my sister noticed it, b/c I just walked right past it...they had a pile of 'em sitting beside the door...it made it so much easier to live down the fact that I paid almost $17 just to have a cool looking thingie to put my money & state issued photo ID in, that cool looking thingie, for those not in the know, being a GHOSTBUSTERS wallet that I had bought at GameStop during the GHOSTBUSTERS: THE VIDEO GAME fever of 2009. And THANK YOU PROTONCHARGING (R.I.P.) for letting me know it was there(!)
I bought something on eBid so that I could get some feedback added to my profile. I originally came to eBid so I could buy A CLOCKWORK ORANGE for the best price I could find at the time. I now have been trying w/ no success to make some money from selling on eBid. I think my lack of feedback might look suspicious to a lot of people. But I'll probably end up selling what I bought, thankfully it was only $3.75. Could have been bought for $0.76 cheaper on Amazon, but who cares and if so, whatever...i don't...that $0.76 would have just been wasted on another item. Or it would add a tiny bit to my so-far-nonexistent savings fund for the TV I mentioned in my justnow prior post.
