Money! Shopping! Squeeeee!!!

by Mary Anne on November 8, 2008

So the weekend is off to a great start. Last night I won some money. A really decent amount of money. Enough to allow me to go out and splurge on something I wouldn’t normally buy for myself. I’ll give you a hint, it’s less than $1,000 and more than $500. I didn’t win it in the lottery, nor did I win it at a casino but as the result of a one year running bet with a group of many friends. I can’t tell you what we bet on because then I’d have to kill you and I like you too much for that.

Common sense would dictate that I should just throw this money back into the family checking account especially during these tough times. However, I haven’t splurged on myself in a REALLY LONG TIME. I’m sorta feeling like it might be that time…time to be selfish and go shopping for something I would never, ever use our household money for.

It’s really been a long time since I’ve considered buying something totally frivolous for myself so help me out. What would you buy if you had a little windfall of cash like I did yesterday and would you feel guilty about it?

PS: If you are participating in NaBloPoMo, please leave me a comment and let me know…I’m putting as many in a blogroll as I can so we can support each other as we crawl towards the finish line!

Woah! I’m really digging the template/theme of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s very difficult to get that “perfect balance” between usability and visual appeal. I must say you’ve done a awesome job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me on Safari. Exceptional Blog!
