Windfall, Part One

You know, graduating is a lovely thing. Your parents come in to town. They tell you how proud of you they are. There is lots of eating and drinking and general merriment.

And sometimes, other relatives, the ones who can't come in to town, give you money.

Now, pretty much all my other relatives can't come in to town, given that they all live overseas. But my dad's parents did send me an email saying that they were planning on giving me $1000.

Hell yeah! A thousand dollars! Computed at ten bucks a day, that's an awful lot of days.

And so I splurged. I got this email while studying for my last final a week or so ago. I'd been studying at my favorite coffee shop for hours. When I got this email I grinned, packed up my bags, and immediately went out to the video store to get this.

Yeah, yeah, I'm a dork. Don't mock me. I'm proud of my dorkness. And I have enjoyed owning this tv show SO MUCH.
