Writer's Block: In The Money

Jul 27, 2007 09:19

If you won $100 this afternoon, what would you do with it?

I'd buy books and have dinner somewhere fun. Khan's Mongolian Barbeque would be fabulous. Yum.

writer's block, books, khan's

I think I'd go with a few small parts for the 'cross bike, a book, the Simpsons movie, and Khan's Mongolian Barbeque.

If I magically find $100 this afternoon, I'll take you to Khan's. :)

I'd get a few things for the house.
I need a new food processor and I might go and get some storage baskets.
Or I'd go have a manicure, pedicure and a haircut!

Ooh, a manicure and pedicure would rock. As would a whole bunch of yarn, except that I'd probably just cuddle it for a while and then put it away in the yarn closet, so that's not really the best use of my magic $100.

Realistically, I'd probably save it. Maybe take it on our trip next week.

For pretends, I'd go buy a really cool cell phone. OK, I might do that even if it was real.

Is there a specific really cool cell phone that you're thinking of, or would choosing one be part of the fun?

suhl July 27 2007, 16:44:27 UTC

Well, I have an amount of iPhone lust, but that's more than $100, so I've been trying to come up with something that will satiate my lust for less. The current frontrunner seems to be a Razr, but I may wait and see how long it takes the OpenMoko (http://www.openmoko.com/) to come out.

Oooooh, shiny! I like that.

I could really use one. Failing that, shoes.

Re: Massage trista July 27 2007, 15:32:10 UTC

I can't even go into a shoe store. I'm like a gambling addict in a casino when I do. It is not pretty.

Do you have a particular pair in mind?

Re: Massage lastwordy_mcgee July 27 2007, 17:26:55 UTC

None in particular. Just shoes :)
I could also take the hundred and use it toward plane fare. That's always a good thing.

Re: Massage trista July 27 2007, 17:45:35 UTC

Yeah, but shoes!

Mmmmmmmmmm Kaaaaaaaaaaaahn's!!!!!

*homer drools... a LOT*

Damn you woman, now I want Kahn's like woah!

I'd probably pamper myself, facial, mani/pedi. Because damnit, I'm worth it.

Or better yet, I'd say to myself, "Self, you have $100, you can call in sick to work tonight!" :D :D

trista July 27 2007, 15:32:56 UTC

Ooh, calling in sick to work is an awesome use of the $100. Excellent! You'd be buying yourself some fabulous free time.

Kahn's makes my heart happy.

soulfire July 27 2007, 15:37:10 UTC

We should all get together (finally!) some day soon and go to Kahn's!

trista July 27 2007, 15:57:45 UTC

Yay, Khan's!
