I have a question:

[wednes]

Can something be hilarious if it makes you want to die inside?

I was looking for a watch online for H. Tell no one, but I was pricing them at the Wal*Mart site. I hate them, they are evil. At the same time, I am poor and you have to buy the fiance a watch. That's the rule, right?

Anyway, I found that watch with a universal remote in it. I only clicked on it because I thought it was a calculator watch. But no...





Still no solid leads on a place to have the wedding/reception.
I wish a whole bunch of money would fall from the sky...
...like not in the form of a safe on my head, I mean in a way that I could spend it without anyone being worse for wear.

I never heard of the buy-the-fiance-a-watch rule. Oops!

That one is rather hilarious. But Walmart, yeah. I would think you could find something as affordable online somewhere. Have you tried Amazon? They're not quite as evil.

I've been looking all over the place. It's a matter of how nice a watch (or how good a brand name) I can get with the money I have. I've only saved about $60, and I can get a nicer watch at WalMart than Amazon...but I just hate to give Walton my money.

So do I, but sometimes it's the only alternative, if you don't want to go without something. Just do something extra positive to even out the karma. : )

I was going to donate my old phone to the homeless shelter. I bet I can scrounge up a few more things for them as well...

[groovesinorbit]

Excellent plan. : )

I keep meaning to tell y'all congratulations! :)

And yes, the watch is very sad.

Thanks, man!

You have to buy the fiance a watch?

*blink*

No one told us. So don't mention it to Todd. ;-)

I am told that a watch is the traditional gift.

You guys, I suspect, are not slaves to tradition...especially not Hallmark-style tradition. ;-]

I shop at the evil that is walmart, too. Even though I HATE that place. I wish target and kmart actually had craft sections!

[wednes.livejournal.com]

OMG I didn't even think of the fact that Walmart has a craft section, as I've only been knitting a short time.

*smiles and starts backing slowly toward Wal*mart with yarn bag*

My first thought, upon looking at the link

is that the 'vibration alert' watch could also be used as a cock-ring.

LOL That would indeed, be a good engagement gift!
