And the final score is...
Jul. 1st, 2004 05:29 pm25 hours of vacation payout. Yep, that about covers the watch and a few new clothes for the new job. And we now return to some version of our usual budget. :)
I just thought of an interesting topic of conversation: what's so good it scares you? Is there anything you've barely tasted, or are afraid to taste, because it might take you over?
I am afraid to live in Manhattan, for example. All that power in one place is like a freakin' drug, and as it is I can only name 4 places on earth I can be sure I could live happily. If I ever once live in Manhattan I fear I could never live anywhere else.
I might also list the S&M scene, which it's far better I not think about since I value, really value, quite a few things that are not compatible with that. And my friend who very wisely doesn't drink because his whole family is alcoholic and he knows it's in his genes. And... but enough from me, tell me what's in your head. :)

To jump on the 'love' bandwagon.
Date: 2004-07-02 07:18 am (UTC)Scary? Yes, the thought of losing her is indeed scary. As many here can attest to, insecurities of being left by one you truly love can be fairly harsh. She's definitely worth it. (sorry, slight nausea setting in?)
I would also say money. I'm afraid that if I ever got to a point where I had lots of money, I'd become so many of the people I hated in college (BU).
One thing I'm terrified I'd like is gambling. I'm such a fan of video games... I could see myself getting into other (particularly number based) games. Deep down this fear has turned into revulsion. I don't ever want to come anywhere near a casino.
