This past weekend, I dove into the Christmas season with full force. I shopped ‘til my bank account dropped.
I hit Harwin’s Trendy Jewelry store pretty hard. Once you’ve shopped there, it’s hard to go to Macy’s and pay $20 for the earrings you get at Harwin for $2.70.
One highlight was that I got a $20 video game for $1.24! It was entered into the scanning system wrong, but Target still honored it. My nephews must be praying very hard over their gifts.
I ran into an old friend Saturday night, and wound up staying at Pappadeux’s until 11p.m. visiting with her. That’s what Christmas is about—telling stories from the year over gumbo and French bread.
I stuck to my rule of not buying anything for myself. It’s pretty hard not to buy myself anything, because there are so many good deals and things that would be perfect for me to give myself.
I did break down and buy a charger for my new dysfunctional Treo. One of my superiors was getting rid of it, and I asked if I could possibly have it if I could get it to work. The QWERTY board is messed up, but the touch screen keyboard works fine. I’ve been playing with it all weekend. It’s a huge phone upgrade for me—even if it is dysfunctional.
I honestly think I am more attractive to men with the Treo. When you pull out the Treo, apparently you are saying to the world that you could be a Sugarmama. I saw a glimmer in man’s eyes, and it was almost a bit scary. Just think if I had the iphone. I’d have to buy a tazer accessory for it to keep the suitors away.
