If I had a 1000K$

Quiet out there this morning. ...too quiet. ... *sighs* Anyway.

If I had a million dollars:
--I'd travel to Japan. And Europe. And Australia/New Zealand.
--I'd quit work and go to school full-time.
--I'd give Mom funds so she could afford vet bills *and* her prescriptions. *insert much guilt over being 1600 miles away and not being there to help/support her and not yet knowing how much of our savings I can send to her until the roof and mortgage refinancing estimate comes in*
--I'd buy ever piece of PoT merchandise known to humankind, including all doujinshi. Actually, I don't think a million would cover this.
--I'd pay someone to clean my house. Because obviously I don't seem to.
--I'd buy a for-real-not-used-hell-with-the-depreciation *new* car. Something terribly impractical and sporty and sparkly.
--I'd buy FFXI because then I could buy myself the time to play. <3Taru<3
--I'd go visit everybody.
--I'd go to all the conventions I've ever been interested in.
--And be able to have keen stuff to cosplay in.
--I'd be able to have pets like snakes, fish, mice, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, etc., because then I could find a way to keep the cats (read: Bebop) from destroying/killing anything smaller.
--All the books I've ever wanted. And a library to keep them in.



...ok, fine. If I had a billion dollars. Just daydreaming here.

I babble because I am going stir-crazy.

*looks at piles and piles of books to work on, slumps* Extraordinarily nice out. But have to be at work for another five hours. Can't leave, have to save vacation time, not fritter it away. Then have to do four loads of laundry, bills, and Japanese homework this evening. Always miss extraordinarily nice days. (Tomorrow is language lab homework, errands, assembling that bench with Kelly; Sunday is Leslie's game, Japanese study/review esp. kanji...)

...bright sun, glowing blue sky, golden green things growing...makes me want to paint. Wish I had a good standing easel. And canvas on frames thingys. Dick Blick is having a huge sale, but I truly have no funds.

Re: class. I think too slow. I write too slow (really, really too damned slow). Suckage.

Am barely getting jack done at work. When I am actually concentrating and applying myself (not now, obviously), I'm going so blasted slowly through everything.

I am Moleasses Woman. See me creep through my entire life. DX

You know, I know it's anime (or rather, manga). I know they bend the laws of time and space and physics. But in a realisticish-set universe...some things I just *can't* buy. I can only suspend disbelief so far. Over the line, and I'm left thinking "Oh, come on now. Get real." >_o

Maybe I'm just a bit touchy that with an ensemble cast, they just hammer us over the head that some characters are practically gods--while other characters just about sweat blood but still not succeed, or be laughed at instead of taken seriously. Or maybe it's the stupid little voice I have trouble silencing that says "But that's against the *rules*! The refs/judges wouldn't allow that! Player X would get kicked the hell out of the game/tournament for pulling that crap...!" or that says "No coach or ref alive would let a player continue after that sorta thing happened to them...!"

Eh... *shakes head hard* Need to quit allowing reality to intrude on fantasy. Foolish for me to be going nitpicky like that. -_-;; ...but still...! *flails* *swats herself* Right. Focus on laundry and sleeping instead.
