So it looks like a new downspout will only run me a couple hundred. And that purple sink? Missing its pedestal, BUT it is only $85. Hmm.
I don't know why January always finds me wanting to spend money as I look at the bills from the holidays.
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Since family members tend to give me money for Christmas, that's how I justify it. (I say, as I refresh FedEx again to see where in the hell my iPod Touch is. [Answer: Hong Kong. SRSLY.])

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I like to look at Christmas as a break even proposition. My mom gives me $200 each year, and I try not to spend more than that.

I have giftcards which will be put to good use. But I don't wanna buy clothes! I wanna buy furniture and fixtures and a downspout!

Yeah, what with the nephews and the postdocing brother, I do not break even.

I actually overspent this year, but then my mother inexplicably gave me $300.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I bought a coat at the post-Christmas sales, and then realized it was just a little more than my grandmother gave me for birthday + Christmas, and she would be thrilled to know I actually bought something specific. Also, we love coats. So I'm glad I remembered to tell her that!
Speaking of my grandmother and coats, she could not be cuter -- she was asking me how "they" are wearing coats now, because she's concerned that hers are now too long, due to her shrinking. Aw! I told her "they" are wearing them all lengths, and she should not worry about the styles! Due to being 91 years old.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I want a job interviewer to ask me what is the philosophy of martial arts. An interviewer for a job I don't want. Because that's a really stupid question.
