Well, my money saving plan was basically shot. New plan of action – go!

I bought a laptop. Over $2200 worth of laptop-y goodness. It’s on a Best Buy credit card. I’ve never had a credit card before, you see… so this is going to be quite an adventure in money management. I’ve been pretty good so far paying on it. I think after it’s done, I’ll have learned how to set aside some money each paycheck for “important” things (which of course will be actual important things, like a car or house).
