I am HORRIBLE with money, like the worst. No matter how hard I *try* to save, I just can't seem to not want to enjoy myself and spend money on other things now. That being said, I had bought a car off of a guy 2yrs ago, and failed to realize a few months after I purchased it, that I'd also have to pay taxes on getting the title changed over to my name. It took me 2yrs to finally get it done, some of that wasted time can be attributed to me not having a job for 3 months, and having to catch up on bills. Also, I'm just a huge procrastinator....
Finally, after 2yrs I got the car title changed; and I NEVER got a ticket for my expired stickers, can you believe that?! Yup, I was pulled over once, as was my boyfriend when he drove it, but they always understood the situation. It cost $300 to transfer the title, highway robbery I tells yea. So after work yesterday I thought it'd be nice to get my boyfriend a robe to wear around the house because he had mentioned always wanting one last week. I managed to find one at 70% off at JC Penny [$70 down to $22!] and went home to surprise him with it. He was shocked, and kept exclaiming how I shouldn't have, then admitted to me that he had been in search of a picnic basket for me after work that day too!! How adorable!!! I love my babe, and he loves me. :)
