The punchline

That had been my plan all along, just so I could see the expression on Liz’s and her mom’s face when I pulled out that pink bag. "I picked this out just for you." And let me tell you, getting that pink bag was an adventure in itself.

Although I didn’t mention my plans to Liz so that the joke wouldn’t be ruined, as soon as I got home she quickly guessed what I was up to and vetoed the idea. She thought that even the bag would be too scandalous for her mother and then Liz would have to kill me with her bare hands for embarrassing her in front of her parents. I was kinda bummed by this turn of events, after what I’d gone through to get it, but not surprised. I’d suspected this idea might've gone too far.
Better safe than sorry I guess. But I'll always wonder, What If . . . ?

Who's spending too much on cosplay? Mmmm, how about that boy with only $9 in his bank account? Wheee! Dude, I really overdid it this month. I suppose I could cut down on my food budget, that'd give me some extra funds. It's either that or cosplay, ha ha ha. Those are my two main . . . optional expenses. Ah, it's cool. I get paid this week anyways. But seriously, I need to get out of this habit of throwing money at cosplay. I need to swallow my pride and do more shopping at Goodwill, even though it smells there. Heck, even Habitat for Humanity has this secondhand hardware store, I should go there for my hard cosplay needs. That's something to consider.
Ah, but I haven't even bought any Christmas presents yet. Egh . . . I don't really wanna. The people I'm obligated to get gifts for (mi familia), they're all broke so it's not like I can expect anything in return. Plus, I don't really know what to get them anyways. My runt brother's easy to shop for, but everyone else . . . *shrug* hell if I know what they want. Bath&Bodyworks for the girls, sausage&cheese sampler for the guys! Pfft. Lame.
I'd rather spend money on presents for friends; I've got a better idea what they want (how could I not, with all these wishlists darkening the skies?). That'd be more fun. But the gift-giving heirarchy goes: family, friends, co-workers, ex's, etc. I can't buy for friends until I get stuff for the family unit. Do not pass GO, do not collect $200. Blah blah blah.
Ah well, I'll figure out something.

P.S. Ha ha. Less than five minutes after this post, I was looking for my keys so I could go to Home Depot. *sigh* "Does he ever learn?!?"
I'll start being responsible tomorrow. ;)
