It's not even 11 o'clock and it's been an expensive day! Paid the dentist a visit to get that broken filling shaved down and pay him the rest of the money I owe him from that other filling I got in a few weeks ago, ($135, about) and then came home and decided I really probably should get that complete Zora Neale Hurston folklore and memoir, which was about $24 used (I figured it's like 3 books in one, at least, so not a bad price. It's also a business expense -- it's got spells and recipes.) I also found a good deal (about 50% off) on the present I wanted to get my sister for her birthday next month and am now contemplating it, though have yet to make the purchase official. Oh, here's hoping I sell some cat bones or tarot readings soon!

Other things I need to save up for:
Getting a crown on my busted molar instead of a filling that keeps needing replacement.
New dress that isn't see-through because of cheap fabric

I am also thinking about going for the "Pro Plan" Createspace offers on the book Death and Destruction. It's an initial $40 investment, so I'm on the fence about it -- but for that investment I'd get an extra $1.50 on each Amazon sale, and I'd also have the ability to get it put in real bookstores by means other than trying to broker wholesale deals myself through the ghetto little site I made. (Less ghetto than the cat bones site, admittedly -- but god, I don't want to have to charge extra just to be able to maintain some fancy webpage!)

And despite all this, no one in my family takes me seriously as a business person and instead thinks my cousin is the impressive one, near as I can tell because he's a boy.
