Easy Come, Easy Go
Today I have been spendin' money like there was no tomorrow. After all, that is a lady's most favorable pastime, is it not? Hahaha. Besides other things, I have spent money online at Amazon and Ebay too. I found some very cool things on Ebay. I bid on a poster of Matt Damon from "Good Will Hunting." I bid on and won a very expensive "collector's" photo of Ryan Merriman lookin' as cute as he can be. It comes with a certificate saying that Ryan really did sign the photo so people will know that it's not a fake. I bid on several other items and managed to spend quite a bit of money on Ebay. Then I spent more money on Amazon orderin' some more Matt movies. Yes, Belle went wild today. I know that both Ebay and Amazon love me dearly. Money, money, money, monnn-EY! Does my heart good to just blow a few hundred bucks on absolutely non-essential items now and then. *sigh* Tomorrow I intend to call the bank and, uh, *cough* make sure this money I've been spendin' like wildfire in a dried out hay field really is MY money for certain. Hopefully Belle will not end up in the hoosegow. But if y'all don't hear from me for several weeks after tomorrow please send a cake (chocolate preferably) with enclosed metal file addressed to Belle c/o The Tennessee Maximum Security Prison for Women on Centennial Boulevard in Nashville, Tennessee.
What brought all this on you might ask? Well, it's like this: I awoke to find that I have some surprise money sittin' unused in my checkin' account. I call it surprise money 'cause it sure was a complete surpise to me to find it there all at once. I don't usually have money like this floatin' around on a daily basis. Can you imagine what it's like to check your checkin' account one day and see that you have less than $800 in it. Then the followin' day you check it again to discover that it has grown over night to several thousand!!! Hahahahaha! Dang! I had to call the telephone automation bank thing three times just to be sure I heard it right. Then I checked with my online bankin'. And there it sat right before my eyes. As big as life and twice as colorful!
I know! You think Belle is lyin' big time or is headed for trouble big time one. But I am not lyin'. As for trouble....I sure hope not. Did Belle win the Tennessee Lottery, which by the way is legal now? No, not exactly, but kind of. I was kind of waitin' for some money to come in to me but I had no idea it would be this much. Whoa! Yes, I know where it came from and no, Belle has not taken up robbin' banks nor puttin' a red light outside of her house. But Belle will not give away her secrets either. Needless to say this is one of those REALLY GOOD CYCLES for me. REALLY GOOD!!!! And I plan to enjoy it while it lasts. Pay off my old debts and then make some new ones. Yes....Belle is livin' the good life for however few days or weeks it may last. Have you ever entertained the thought of lyin' naked in a bathtub filled to over-flowin' with $100 dollar bills? Actually I plan to put some of it away into a savin's account and some of it I will blow in. Why not? I will only go 'round once in life. So I plan to enjoy it as much as I can. My head is still reelin' from yesterday when I first discovered my win-fall. And if anyone tells me I have to give any of it back,....Belle is goin' to end up out on Murfreesboro Road in the Insane Asylum.
Get a grip, girl. This ain't a dream or if it is I sure hope nobody wakes me up anytime soon. This is just too good!!
I did not sleep one iota of a moment last night. I had all these thoughts rushin' through my head like an express train runnin' on it's own without a conductor to stop it. All durin' the night I thought of what I might do with this bit of luck. Honestly! I do know who it came from and I don't think I will have to relinquish it. And I know it's drivin' you crazy 'cause I won't say, 'cause I know it would drive me insane if this was your diary I was readin'. But for now I can't share that piece of information. Trust me. Maybe one day....
I need to get some sleep. I'm dead from excitement mixed with exhaustion. But I don't even think that sleepin' pills will work at the present time for me. I'm havin' an adrenalin rush comparable to Niagra Falls in the rainey season I can't wait to talk to D about all of this. Yes, D is back again! I missed him so much. He is like honey poured over a piece of buttered toast. He is just as sweet as he can be. I am anxious to hear D's reaction to all of this. I just hope I will be able to sleep tonight or I will be truely wild as a buck tomorrow for certain.
Shhhh....Don't tell any single guys about this. They'll all be wantin' to hitch up to Belle...um....Okay. on second thought, let me think about that awhile.
In the meantime, with God as my witness, I shall nevah go hungry agin!
