The Spoils Of Business

Hey you! Firstly, thank you for reading my garb, I know I'm often long winded and whiney. I appreciate your time, I really do!

I will cut to the chase and address the title, the spoils of business, meaning that I am benefitting from investing in my business. My lucky streak has extended and I couldn't be happier! I have purchased a serger, invested in lighting for videos, and now I have a laptop that will serve me greatly in my attempts of educating myself and starting my business. The lucky streak I'm referring to is a bit long winded, but I do find happiness in giving credit where is it due.

1. It all began with tears of sadness. My boyfriend was talking to me about a video game the other day. He said "...and during the renaissance..." when a light bulb suddenly exploded in my brain. The ren fair! Due to our situation, not only are the tickets far out of price range, but the travel was too great as well. Tears welled in my eyes, my chin quivered. I felt like someone crushed my heart, murdered my dreams. Then, my phone rings, its my boss...telling me to put in my vacation hours if I wasn't going to use them! The timing was so impeccable, I couldn't believe it! That Friday, instead of spending a double check on a stressful ren fair trip, I bought a serger instead. Best decision EVER! I was so elated! Its been over 2 years since I used a serger, and almost 2 years since I lost mine in the house fire. YAY!
2. My mood being a 10/10 for jumping right back into using a serger like I had never lost my old one, I had a new set of eyes. I was watching ToxicTears new video about the goth elitists and the bullshit she has been put through for being goth. Of course it struck a cord with me and I decided to make a video, myself. THEN, I decided to continue making videos. I have extremely low confidence, but I will stand up for the things/people I believe in. I've made a few mentions about goth elitism here on my blog, but it has only gotten worse! I feel like, even if only a couple of people watch my video, or read my blog, than I have made enough of an impact to make it worth the stress it puts me through whenever I bare my heart and soul on a video. I will continue to make videos, which brings me to my next point.
3. Dear boyfriend, I'm sorry and I love you. The G-man wanted to go out and purchase a ps3 to play the old mgs games. I support him in the video game playing. We go out and everything keeps shitting on him. He turned in a few ps4 games for cash, got WAY more than he expected, but not quite enough to do what he wanted to do. So, in a desperate attempt, we moseyed our way to our favorite pawn shop. Luckily, this pawn shop had exactly what he was looking for, but his mind changed quickly. He wanted a gun instead. As he gawked over the rifles on clearance, I strolled around the store until I got to the laptops. They never usually have anything good for a decent price when it comes to electronics, but today was my lucky day! There, among the beaten and broken $200+ laptops sat a clean, barely used acer with windows 10...for $155!!! That was unbelievable to my eyes. I heard a voice in my head say "No fucking way, dude!" I squealed as I skipped over to my gawking boyfriend "Babe, don't hate me. Come here!" He was intrigued by my sudden glee. I asked him "Should I do layaway?!" he responded "No, just get it now!" I proceeded to the desk, trying desperately to contain myself. When the lady at the desk came over to the laptop area, I pointed "That one, $155! Is that right?!" She looked very worried, a bit shocked and said "Um, that is a really low price for such a new computer! Let me...I'll be right back." I thought about it only for a moment, as soon as she disappeared to the back, I jetted over to the guy at the desk and said "I'm buying THAT laptop...right now!" What a charming salesman, by the way! He giggled and gave me shit about how he was gonna buy it, blah blah blah. While he was checking us out, the lady came back with this destroyed look on her face, "You decided to just buy it, huh?" I smiled ear to ear and nodded. Her eyes dropped to the floor and she slunked  away. I thanked my boyfriend, apologized because we came there for him, but his support was too strong.

Here I sit, OUTSIDE, on my new touchscreen acer laptop! yay!
Now I can live chat and video edit, and blog. My world is so happy right now! I'm so happy!

Thank you so much for reading this long ass post. I love ya!
