If I had a dollar for every one of my posts

[GoddessOfGuinness]

I'd pay off the bills and overhaul the bathroom.

What would you spend your post bucks on?

[fizzgig]

1. i wouldn't have much

but i'd put it toward my bills

how are you tonight GoG?

:toast:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

3. My stomach feels kind of yucky, but other than that, I'm ok...

How about yourself? :toast:

[fizzgig]

5. doing well

i felt very snobby tonight (long story) but i have a nice buzz going and i'm happy

i'm sorry your stomach is yucky

[GoddessOfGuinness]

11. I'm glad you're happy!

I think I just need to burp. I'm going to have some soda, to see if that helps...

Whatcha buzzing on?

[fizzgig]

39. i hope the soda helped

i've been drinking red wine all night. i'm happy now, but i'm not so sure i'll feel the same way in the morning. but hey, i can sleep as much as i want tomorrow

[GoddessOfGuinness]

40. Drink water before you go to sleep...

It really helps! :D

I'm off to bed now. The soda did the trick!

Sweet dreams! :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

2. Pay off my debts, put some in savings, and take a trip.

Man, if ONLY!!!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

6. Where would you go?

I'd like to visit Sweden...

[SeattleGirl]

9. Amsterdam!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

13. Lovely!

That'd be fun!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. My dear GoddessOfGuinness!

Congrats on making 30K posts, sweetie! :toast:

If I had a dollar for every one of mine?

I'd invest some of it....

And give some of it away to folks I know who could really really use it!

:bounce: :bounce:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

7. Thanks, Peggy!

:hug:
You are such a dear!

[Nicole]

8. Put most of it in savings

to replace the money I sent the IRS last week. :mad:

The rest I would spend on a new computer.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

15. Bummers...

:hug:
Hope next year's easier on you...

[Nicole]

34. Thanks.

:hug:

[grannylib]

10. Pay some bills and get some ink

[GoddessOfGuinness]

16. Ink?

You use a fountain pen?

[grannylib]

17. *lol* Yes, I do, actually (my dad's) but I meant tattoos. I have a couple planned

but no $$ for them in the budget.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

24. LOL!

I hope you can get them soon!

[madinmaryland]

12. Maybe Newyawker99 needs to weigh in on this one.

with over 150,000 posts she's the one who could answer that.

:hi:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

19. How about you?

It wouldn't have to be anything huge...
Would you go to a fancy restaurant?
Take a weekend in NYC?

[madinmaryland]

21. The hoover in your sig line would probably take care of it.

:shrug:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

28. We haven't seen ants yet this season...

But we're supposed to have warm weather next week. I wouldn't be surprised to see them back in the kitchen. I'm putting all the cereals in ziplock bags, just to be sure.

[madinmaryland]

26. And no trips to NYC...

Short explanation: I worked in world financial ctr across the street from wtc. bad day.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

29. I'm sorry...

How horrible! :hug:
Chincoteague, maybe?

[madinmaryland]

32. Thank you.

I love that anteater! You have the second best sig line here.

:hug:


The first is Blue-jay's with the pic of * looking at the squirrel!

[u4ic]

14. A car

that actually works...:bounce:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

20. Ooo! What kind?

I love new car smell!

[u4ic]

27. Gently used...

14k won't buy anything grand here - I'd be happy with a Corolla.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

30. We spent 5 on a used Volvo

a couple of summers ago. It had 130,000 on it. I've been very happy so far... (insert wood-knocking smiley here)

[u4ic]

33. Thanks for the tip!

If I ever get paid for my posts, I'll definitely consider it. :P


Oh, and I'll add another keyboard. My space bar is shot, and I'm going to break my thumb soon if I don't get a new one. x(

[AwakeAtLast]

18. Probably go buy some clothes

I could really use something new. I usually end up buying stuff for my daughter instead of me. Isn't that how it always goes? :shrug:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

22. That's the truth!

You should buy something for yourself...You deserve it! :hug:

[AwakeAtLast]

23. Thanks!

:hug:

[trackfan]

25. I still wouldn't be able to pay my taxes this year.

:(

[GoddessOfGuinness]

31. That sucks.

But it'd help, no?

[trackfan]

36. Definitely. But it would still fall way short.

However, if I had a dollar for all of your posts...now we're talking.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

38. ...

;-)

[reyd reid reed]

35. I'd send my kid

to Japan and then, when he gets back, go on vacation. We really wanna go to Wrigley this year -- that was the plan, but it's looking less likely by the day.

:(

[GoddessOfGuinness]

37. I hope you can work it out...

But if you can't, I hope you just enjoy each other. :hug:

[S n o w b a l l]

41. Pay my property taxes :(

And I'd $20 left over to live it up...splurge at taco bell or something.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

42. You could do better than Taco Bell...

How about some nice Thai food, or a bowl of Pho? :-)

[InvisibleTouch]

43. I would get the hell out of this city.

I hate hate hate the city. I would move to Florida. If I got a dollar for every post, I'd post a lot more! :)

[GoddessOfGuinness]

47. What part of FL?

Rural? Are there still small towns in the state?

[InvisibleTouch]

56. Most definitely rural.

Did I mention I hate the city? ;)

Southwest part of the state is my choice. I've even got my spot picked out. If you go inland from Naples into the Everglades, you come upon long stretches of road with only the occasional house here and there. That's my goal - tropical climate, no neighbors. Paradise!

BTW, it's very cool, GoG, that you reply to every post in your threads. No wonder you'd have all those dollars for each post! :)

[GoddessOfGuinness]

59. Buy an airboat?

I try to acknowledge replies to my threads, though I know I don't rate 100%. A couple of times I've been the one person who doesn't receive a response in a thread. It bites. ;-)

[Left Is Write]

44. I'd redo one of the bathrooms also. And I'd put wood flooring throughout the main floor.

And, I think, a professional landscaper to do finish up what Mr. LIW have been working on (and paying for) bit by bit.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

49. I'd love to pull up the rugs

and refinish the floors here.

[Cabcere]

45. Next semester's textbooks.

*sigh* x(

[GoddessOfGuinness]

50. $1,877.00 for textbooks?

Jeeeeeeze!

[Cabcere]

54. OK, so maybe I'm exaggerating a little...

my post count would probably cover the next two semesters. Maybe. x( Stupid &%$#ing textbooks...

[GoddessOfGuinness]

65. That's horrifically expensive!

Too bad there isn't a used textbook supplier around...

[Cabcere]

71. Yeah, it's pretty rough.

If you're lucky and get there early enough, you can sometimes find a used textbook or two, but even then they're still absurdly expensive, and most of the time the required texts come in sealed "course packs" so you have to buy the whole damn thing new. It's possible to order from Amazon or Half.com, but there are risks involved with that, too - shipping takes a while, and you can't always be sure you're getting the right edition. It's a pain in the butt. x(

[RevolutionaryActs]

46. A trip to Europe

And a new car. :P

[GoddessOfGuinness]

51. Sounds like fun!

What kind of car?

[RevolutionaryActs]

53. A hybrid!

:bounce:


If only I could get money for my posts... D'oh!

[wildhorses]

48. wow, i would have

over 18 thou :wow:

i would pay off some bills:bounce:

i hope that is what i would do:P

[GoddessOfGuinness]

52. Maybe you could pay off some

and have a little fun, too!

[wildhorses]

55. that is what i was thinking

i would prolly do...but, it would be nice to come out from under some of this crap the ex decided should be minex(

long boring story but, end result is i got a pile of it and it is a drain of energy.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

60. The peace of mind that would come from being bill-free

would be as good as a vacation, to my mind.

[caty]

57. Retirement

[GoddessOfGuinness]

61. I'll never retire...

It's a fact of life I've come to face. I may be able to slow down a bit; and I'll probably eventually teach more than I perform. But I won't be able to afford to quit even if I wanted to.

[frogcycle]

58. more posts

i'm a junkie

[GoddessOfGuinness]

62. Like wishing for more wishes?

Cheers to you! :toast:

[flvegan]

63. This

Or I'd do the smart thing and pay down my mortgage.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

66. Cute!

Nice car!

We paid off a 30 year fixed mortgage 2 years ago. It is SUCH a relief, especially considering the outlandish rates new home buyers are paying around here now. I hope rates go down soon...

[LeftyMom]

64. I'd go buy the nice little Toyota van for sale up the street

and I'd have enough left over to throw my shit in it and move.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

67. Where would you move?

:hi:

[LeftyMom]

68. Nowhere yet.

I have to finish school before I can afford to live someplace else, much as I wish that weren't the case.

I do like that little van though. :)

[GoddessOfGuinness]

72. Well I hope you get your wish...

even if this is just a fantasy. :-)

[NMDemDist2]

69. a new car

i could get a sweet ride for that $$$

:evilgrin:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

73. You could!

What would you go for?
A hybrid?
A sexy little sports car?
A family car?

[NMDemDist2]

75. that's the tough part

i really need a small pickup living out here in the country

but i really really want a hybrid or a biodiesel unit :cry:

[GoddessOfGuinness]

78. Maybe you could get a pick-up and convert the engine...

[EstimatedProphet]

70. I'd clear out the bills

[GoddessOfGuinness]

74. Works as well

as a vacation, in my opinion!

[LSK]

76. I'd be buying a Jeep Patriot

[GoddessOfGuinness]

79. How does the Patriot act?

Sorry...Couldn't resist.

[SteppingRazor]

77. I'd pay off some debt...

my post count would just about take care of my student loans

[GoddessOfGuinness]

80. That would be a relief, no?

:toast:

[ZombieNixon]

81. $1700 - data recovery

$1800-something - new laptop

With a nice chunk left over for a nice apartment next year or something. I wish DU could be a paying job. :P

[scarlet_owl]

82. I would buy a sun porch for my mother-in-law.

I think I might need a little more.

[Bucky]

83. HypnoToad's long overdue double-sex-change operation.

We will have heard the last of that whole "lesbian trapped in the body of a man" thing.

Of course at 30,000 posts, we'll have to go with one of those cheapie Granada Medical School sex change operations.
