Today, $60 flew out of my pocket like it had wings. It was sort of frustrating. All I could think about was what else I could have done with it. What would YOU do with $60?

That’s what I love about you–you can take such an incredible tiny thing and turn it into a great video.
I know the sticker shock, though. When I was in SF a couple of weeks ago, I splurged on breakfast at the hotel: orange juice, coffee, waffle. Tab? $30. Yikes!!!

That was an awesome video! I totally indentify with that. Everytime my mom and I used to go grocery shopping, and we’d get the total, we’d always say “Do you know how many new items of clothing we could have bought for that?” I feel your pain.
Hmmm, if I had $60 right now, I think I’d maybe do a little dance, and then go buy a new pair of jeans and a new pair of shoes.

I would have done the same- spent it on dinner for 2. But alas, I’m cheap and single. I would have done what I usually do- buy a week’s worth of natural foods.

That sucks that that costed so much. I remember when I was in new york an F’n sandwich was 10-15 bucks! How people can live there is beyond me. Of course there must be places to get inexpensive food.

Hey, hey! I’m back! And wow, you are spending dangerously girl! $60 for lunch! That is insane. But then again, you know those restaurants. Always sneaking up those extra costs on you when you least expect it! No worries, though, I’ve been spending way too much too.
And this vloggercon trip is gonna take a big hole out of my pocket as well. I love your vlog. Very funny!

That was awesome. =D I’m so glad I finally got over my fear of 1040 forms and caught up here. =)

Mmm… Cadbury’s Cream Eggs… If I had $60 to blow, I’d blow it at IKEA…

Serves you right for getting the gold plated lobster sandwich.
And yes, I wish you guys could come up to my show, too.

I can say right now that if I won the Mega Millions, I would spend a good portion of it on Samoas.
You was robbed.
Also - I just got the letters “reahlkok” as my word verification. Do you have anything to do with this? I feel vaguely dirty.

Ok, first of all, I don;t know what a samoa is, but i actually said out loud “HEY!!!!” when i saw you are a reader of both The invisibles and Strangers in paradise. Then when your coleco PACMAN appeared i almost choked on my tortellini!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This was my alltime favorite toy when i was a kid, until i disassembled it because i needed red flashing led lights for a “computer” i was building out of a cardboard box and a 5 gallon pail. so thanks for the walk down memory lane!
