Dilemma

Okay, so my grandma has given me $60 to go buy something for myself so she can give it to me at our family birthday party this Sunday. I have no idea what to get. Normally I'd get some clothes or something, but I really don't need that (or anything else) right now. And the only things I want are expensive, like a new horn or a car. What should I get?

Pity I can't buy a boyfriend. :D Though I do have a date this Saturday -- I'm excited.

Rather than something you need---get something you want.

You know what I'm going to tell you. But do what you want. Just think like Mary Kay wants you to, which is as follows:

a small investment in personal beauty products + a couple of weeks to adjust to new hotness = new boyfriend who sees the inner beauty and the outer goshliness

shortened equation:

$ + :) = 2

Or buy some ice cream cake. Very delicious!

Bring granny something you already own that looks new, save the $60 for taking your new boyfriend to Stuart Anderson's Black Angus and Laser Floyd.

It just so happens that $60 is the service fee I charge for acting lessons/dating consultation. I'll even cut it down a few bucks if you bring some meat to make a stew.

badger: did you know that at burger king, you can fill your drink as many times as you want for free?

Badger, this is why we can't have nice things. (2021 walks away in shame, contemplating a name change for the 2021st time)

Wow. You guys are all amazing.

Michelle: what's this about a new boyfriend?!? It's only a date (and a first one at that)!

The other Middlemas: I have to say, it was worth waiting to read your post. Had I not been in a library, I would have laughed out loud. So stew, huh? How much of a discount would I get if I just made it all as opposed to just bringing meat?

I'll tell you what, Laverna, if that is your real name... if you bring a pot of fresh beefy stew to choir this Thurs, I will give you a free acting lesson and 15 mins. of free dating consultation. You just can't put a price on a good beefy stew. Can I get an amen?

And as for that free drink at Burger King, when you are as famous of an acting teacher/dating consultant as I am, you get a free refill when and wherever you dern well please. Speaking of, how the heck are you T.R.? I haven't talked to you since I have been home (29 days and counting.) How is your sister doing? Grrr, she never me wrote me although I emailed her every week. It's okay though, when you are as famous of an acting teacher/dating consultant/full time missionary as I am, you just don't have time to read all of your fan mail.

Didn't see you there on Thursday badger-boy. Now you'll never know if I brought any beefy stew or not.
