Thanks, Jessica and Ginger!
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Fuck. I screwed up my accounting (well, what I call accounting) and managed to spend through the cushion that I like to keep in my checking account. Not a huge deal, I can build it back up, but will have to be frugal for a while. I went to get my car checked out before I drive to Richmond for Christmas, the brakes had been making a weird noise, but were working fine, and . . . I need new brakes. To the tune of $900. The guy didn't even want me to drive it out of there even though he couldn't work on it until tomorrow. I suppose the good thing is that if I hadn't been going on the trip, I probably would have fooled around checking it out. Which technically I did anyway, since it first made the noise two weeks ago.
Ewww, headache. Have applied drugs and food.
Thanks for the advice, y'all. I may swing by 10K Villages if I have time just b/c I love their decorations, but I won't sweat it.
I have a shopping cart of $140 (including shipping) at Sierra Trading Post. That would get me three sweaters, two shrugs, and a faux suede vest. According to them, I'm saving $218 over the retail cost. Hmm. I need more sweaters and I'm hoping these would be high quality and long lasting.
I think I just talked myself into it. Got rid of the shrugs, which brought it down to $125.
Brakes are sneaky that way. I did the same thing in August - getting ready for a trip, got the car checked out, needed new brakes. when I thought they were fine. Mine had been squeaking but then they stopped, which probably means I pushed it even further...Sorry it's a hit to the finances, but I'm glad you'll be safe!
Good luck, Nora!
Do you have a coupon, smonster? This one ALDECEMBER9 is supposed to work for 20% off into January. Sierra Trading post almost always has a coupon...
Welcome to the world, Glambaby Shane!
Yay baby! Hello Glambaby Shane!

Yes, found that on retailmenot and it worked. Down to $104! The magic of the Internet.
I don't think I said.... YAY GLAMBABY AND GLAMFAM!
And now I want to buy fingerless gloves and organic underwear, both types of items I do need. I want office armwarmers that are a little less... glittery, and a lot of my underwear is so old it's starting to shred.
OMG why so shoppy, smonster?
I should distract myself with work. Heh.

Heh. I just recently organized my drawer full of them, and I think I'm getting some more on Christmas, thanks to Mom and her knitting.

Don't look at me. I'm browsing Etsy for new lipstick and pink eyeshadows. Which I probably don't really need, but the idea of hand-made organic black lipstick is awfully tempting.
I should distract myself with work. Heh.
I ... should do the same thing, dammit. Don'wanna.
