So, on Tuesday evening I made three big purchases. Things I’d been saving up for, talking about, and debating for months. Of the three, guess which item I was most excited about. Was it:

a) For $25 I bought myself a fake Christmas tree from the grocery store. It's pretty and has blue ornaments.

b) For a quarter of my monthly salary, a 36" LED TV with a fast refresh rate for playing HD videogames.

c) For $20, a bead spinner to make threading beads faster.

Did you guess the TV? Really? I don’t have a blog about videogames. To be fair, the tree was a close second, but I was super excited about the bead spinner. It’s kinda hard to explain, but you fill the bowl with beads. It has a metal rod sticking up through the middle of it, and when you spin the bowl, you can hold a needle into the beads and they all just jump on. I’ll post a video when I can get the stupid uploader to work.

Edit: got it!
