this year after i was laid off my waitressing job, i decided i deserve to earn higher wages. i don't deserve to continue to earn only minimum or even only a couple bucks over minimum.
i've spent the past month and a half interviewing for various different positions and finally found one. finally, at least at this time it seems that i will no longer be broke. :)
to celebrate, i went out to buy a new phone. lucky, i found a refurbished newer phone being offered for free. all i had to pay was tax on the full price value of the phone, which came to about twenty bucks. my music phone is only slighty longer than an ipod nano and it is just as slim. i immediately sold my old phone, and both my ipods. YAY!
the only other thing i can think of that i have been wanting was a wii. i finally can afford to spend money on something so unnecessary. omfg.
my new roommate and i begun the search today. i visited: costco, 2 different gamestops, sears, best buy, circuit city, radioshack, target. throughout the entire search we traveled probably a total of 50+ miles.
i really can't believe how difficult they are to find even today. you can't buy them online anywhere except amazon or ebay unless you want it on backorder. you still can't find them ANYWHERE because they don't stay on shelves longer than two hours. no wonder people on craigslist, ebay, and amazon are still making such a profit off this console. these things are still damn near impossible to find.
i kept saying, "i really just want to walk into someplace and there be only ONE left on the shelf." Finally, we walk into wal-mart (with only one other big box store left to visit) and we find the absolute last wii until another week or so.
YES!
i am beyond happy. for the first time in my life there is not ONE single thing i can think of that i could want. not ONE.
at least now when I play super smash bros there won't be any issues with my brand new machine >=)
life is good
