Ugh, I really need to update this more often. Here are the highlights of the last week:
- ChaCha has been going really well, but they recently changed their pay structure which has made me less motivated. I've made $400 in about a month, which I was very pleased about. I will probably continue to do it since I have consistently made top guide, but if I ever get dropped down to 0.10 per query, I may have a cow. Seriously.
- The original plan was to pay of debts, get a new car... oh, you know how that goes. I ended up buying a Nintendo DS Lite. Coral Pink! You wouldn't believe how many stores I looked before I found it. I also got "The World Ends With You" which is extremely difficult, but very good.
- I also got some makeup. I'm on a girly streak right now. Hush.
- My first wedding anniversary is on Monday. I know, I can't believe it either. Time flies! Jerry tried to get the day off of work, but couldn't, so we decided to spend the weekend having fun instead. Last night we went out for dinner at Biaggi's, which is a fancy Italian restaurant that we ate at the first time I met him. It was more expensive than I would have liked, but totally worth it.
- My computer stopped working yesterday. This posed a major problem since I kind of need it to work. We went to Best Buy and picked up a new one for a little over $500. It makes me cringe, but I really like it... it's a lot faster and I should be able to work more effectively once I get everything set up properly. Still, it puts paying off debts back another month. *sigh*
- This morning we went out for breakfast and caught the early showing of Wall-E, which was delightful. It was really, really good. After it was over we headed to the mall. I bought Jerry Soul Calibur VI for our anniversary (totally romantic, don't ya know) and he bought me a few pairs of Brighton earrings that I picked out. Got a few cards at Hallmark (lol to picking out anniversary cards together), grabbed some TCBY and then headed home.
- I've been babysitting pretty much full time and will be until the girls go back to school. Jess asked me if I wanted to watch the baby full time after it's born, but I declined for a couple of reasons. The main reason is it's a ton of work. Silly to say that when I've been wanting a baby, right? Well, it's different when it's your own kid. Another reason is I KNOW I'll get attached and if anything happens so that I can't watch it anymore, it will be extremely hard on me. I'm already attached to the girls and I've only known them for a few years. Imagine how it would be raising someone else's child.
- Oh! I know I haven't mentioned this before, but we booked our flights to Atlanta in November. Jerry's friends are getting married and he hasn't seen them in a couple of years. I haven't met them, so I'm a little nervous, but excited at the same time. It should be fun!
I need to go, the kitten is screaming at me to hold him.
