Ha, so I got paid yesterday and proceded to blow it all on a new computer. A shiny new(used) iCrap! Pimpin' Purple Biatch.
Pimpbot is dead so I have been without a computer for a while now and I was starting to get desperate. I had been checking Craig's List every day for any hot deals on computers or computer parts. I have a few pieces of a computer that I have been piecing together for the last few months. I have a 1.2Ghz Intel Celeron Processor, a 10GB hard drive, a CD-ROM Drive, and 3.5 inch floppy drive. I was really looking for an ASUS TUSL2-C motherboard, 350Mhz power supply, and a nice case to finish up my project. But instead I came accross an ad for an iMac DV that I couldn't pass up.
I am still working out the details with the seller but I should be picking it up today or tomorrow at lunch. This will lead to two things for sure. One, I will be broke for the rest of the month. It will be ham and cheese sandwiches for lunch every day. Two, I will become an insomniac. With this computer I will stay up until like 5am every day goofing around on the damn thing. I have all the software for the iCrap too, that's another reason I jumped on this deal. I have Photoshop 7 plus every plug in you could want, Flash MX, Adobe GoLive, Dreamweaver, Microsoft Office, the list goes on and on. With my project computer I will have to buy every single piece of software, which could get quite expensive.
Let me take this opportunity to explain my financial situation to some of my worried fans (tongue planted firmly in cheek). Sometimes you may look at my checking account balance being displayed and see that I have, oh lets say $1.76. During these times I inevitably get emails and messages from concerned peepz offering to throw a few pennies my way or give me food or something. Rest assured peepz, el guapo is not starving. But I will accept paypal donations, email: [email protected] .
I have a weird way of accounting for my funds. If I have a bill or expense that I know I will be paying for in the future I deduct that amount from my checking balance ledger. This is to make sure that I always have my bills and essential expenses covered. And being that the purpose of my checking account is only for bills and expenses the balance is going to be pretty low on a regular basis. It's a weird way of budgeting but it works for me.
el guapo's financial house is in order. I've got the 401K going on, the ROTH IRA going on, the Mutual Funds going on, and maybe even an offshore account or two in the Cayman Islands going on ;-).
