Whoever said "Money can't buy happiness" was obviously an obnoxiously rich depressed fuck or some hairy arm-pitted hippy, because, lemme tell you, having a little bit of scratch does make the world better.
No, the Rottenator and I are not rolling in it yet, but our financial situation is more stable than it has ever been in the entire time we've been together, and although we still have our quibbles and squabbles, our relationship is better too.
Because you know what? Money can buy a reliable car, dinners at mid-scales buffets, a little peace of mind, and lots of cat treats and e-cig accessories.
Which leads to less stress. And less stress = less violently angry Rottenator which makes the world a more enjoyable place.
The way to a man's heart truly is through his stomach...and his love of football.
Which why this jersey:
And tickets to this game this weekend:
are probably the best purchases of my life.
Other than this:
In other me related news, I had a great time at my sister's house this weekend, babysitting her chirren:
who are just the most hilarious and beautiful children in the word. It was my sister's birthday, so I purchased these for her (she's a Gamecock and Bill Murray fan, obvs):
In fact, I don't believe I would be exaggerating if I were to say that Bill Murray needs to hire extra security.
Just sayin'.
So anyhoo, things are still going well. New trainer at work, hurrah! Which makes it a lot better. Speaking of that, I think that the US of A needs to rethink it's work schedule. Or at least my company does, because 4 days on/3 days off leaves me much more motivated. In fact, even after a weekend away from home, I still managed to do laundry, clean the house, go to the grocery store, and post some mail. Having a free day during the normal "work week" should be a routine...for me, of course, not for everyone else, because then I wouldn't be able to get my shit done, which would defeat the purpose.
To recap:
New car...
New washer and dryer...
New accessories for the car...
Life is pretty darn okay right now. Only two things would make it complete...
New Rottenator and new Nooge? Say what!??!
I kid...kinda...

I don't know who is more adorable- Ian or Colonel Meow. I wouldn't kick either one out of bed. ;-)
ReplyDeleteWhoever said money can't buy happiness was a stupid fuck. Until last year I was living in poverty. I was not able to buy food at times and never able to go anywhere. Even taking my kids to the movie once a year was something I had to save for. Now I have a job that pays well (with benefits!) and for the first time in my adult life I can breathe. Money may not buy happiness but it buys stuff like FOOD and CLOTHING and it pays the damn water bill. And now it pays for a vacation! How great is that!
