Credit Where Credit's Due, or I Spent HOW Much?
Took Aimee Uy out for a birthday lunch at the Mylk restaurent in Greenbelt 3. When she informed her fiance Richard Chong via text message and his replies were, "Why?" and, "Don't do it again." Geez, protective much? They're already getting married next July and it's not like the guy's got any reason to be jealous. Anyhoo, the food was so-so, the bill not so-so and dessert definitely so NOT (as I found out when I ate it at home).
Sometimes I scare myself with how much money I spend online. I just checked and I've spent close to ten thousand bucks in the past 3 months on comics and DVDs alone. A couple of days ago I was experiencing trouble making an online credit card payment on Ebay. I checked and my credit balance seemed fine. Turns out I didn't account for the online purchases I made on Discount Comic Book Service, my favorite online comic store before I had the advantage of Ebay (and Jeffrey Co's California home as a shipping address). The fact that DCBS sent a couple of books via the expensive UPS (note to self: don't put "ASAP" in future requests for shipping the books) to the California address didn't help.
I just cleared my bidding watchlist for the rest of the year, but not before winning the Planetary Vol. 2 hardcover. Geez, I'm turning into a shopaholic. Think I'll opt for monthly shipping from DCBS, and a separate credit card, as well.
