Maybe it was a purchase, maybe an experience? What did you treat yourself to?
I did well on a couple interviews today so I walked down to the local cafe and had a chai latte and a maple bar.
Tomorrow, if I do well on that interview, I’ll go walk downtown and get lunch at the local thai restaurant I like!
Congrats on the interviews! Food and beverages are one of my favorite ‘treat yourself’ categories.
Thank you! And definitely the same for me. Just like my cat, I am very food driven.
Exciting! I’m confident you’ll do well, you got this!
Thank you very much! One of them is definitely shaping up to be quite promising. :)
You got this! Good luck!
Lunch.
As in: You cooked lunch or got take out? For me either could apply.
I bought a slice of buffalo chicken pizza.
pad thai
edit: hbu?
I splurged recently on a china cymbal for my drum kit! It’s pretty exciting, I haven’t upgraded my kit in ages.
Good for you! Sounds like it was about time. Hope you make the most out of it. :)
A tuna hoagie and some chips.
A pair of boots. Never owned one before. I can finally splash on puddles like in the movies
Hey are you more of a Peppa pig or George?
I’m waiting for it to rain to find out!
I was Bad and bought a couple hundred dollars of stuff for my painting hobby
Sometimes being bad feels so good though lol
I hope your new supplies aid in painting something cool!
Bought the Lego Game Boy two weeks ago. Haven’t played with Legos in a long long time, since I was a kid. But this was a really fun set to put together.
Okay, so, Monday I went to 2 thrift shops and 2 pawn shops because we weren’t able to that weekend. I ended up spending around $50USD on 5 games.
First lawn shop I got Jak 1-3 on PS2 alongside final fantasy X on PS2 for a little over $20 at one pawn. I’ve 100%ed the first Jak years ago and was part way through Jak 2 when I lost my console and games. Same way I lost FFX with my partway completed save.
Then at the other pawn shop I got PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royal and Crash Bandicoot Twinsanity for around $27, I think. Would need to check receipt, if I still have it.
All games I used to have and enjoy. All I gotta do is see if there is a way to unlock PS3 DLC for free without system mods because I don’t think my brother would be too keen on his systems being modded.
I went for a run yesterday because I was feeling miserable. It really helped. Today I made 2 big pizzas from scratch.
Zero sum game
Only for the physical health, mental health got 200% improve.
Bought a game called Slay. It’s one of the most elegant turn-based games I’ve ever seen. Xisuma made a video series about it. Highly recommend watching the first video if that sort of thing interests you.
A motorcycle, always wanted one and figured now is a good time.
Hell yeah! And who downvoted his/her treat to themselves? A real turd in the punchbowl eh.
I’ve been getting Dental work done recently, and it’s across the street from a harbor freight, so after each appointment I’ve been going there and buying a tool or two. Just bought a flex head ratchet yesterday.
It’s better than buying fast food i tell myself, which I’ve stopped doing for the most part. (If I’m out and about with people, or there’s something limited time that I want to try sure, but otherwise i haven’t bought any in a couple months)
People often shit on HF but their hand tools are perfectly acceptable for the average home mechanic, and hell honestly fine for a lot of professionals with their new Icon linea. Even their power tools have gotten pretty good lately. They’ll last you many years, tools are always a good investment.
Super Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 bundle for the Switch 2. Partly a treat for me, partly for my kids. I want them to play it like I did when I was a kid. 😊 Although the games look so much better on a 65" OLED than they did on my thicc TV back in the day. But that’s okay. I’m enjoying the updated graphics too. It doesn’t take away from the experience.
I bought a silly game that just launched called Escape From Duckov. Played it for three hours straight! It’s kinda addicting.
I literally did the exact same thing. Never played an extraction shooter before and it was a spontanous purchase. Did not regret it.
Three oliebollen, what a delightful start to a depressing day at the office!
