It Buys Happiness Just Fine If You Know Where To Shop

This week's Friday Five....

You have just won one million dollars:

1. Who do you call first?
The GM1, of course. After that, not a soul. They'll all be coming out of the woodwork as soon as word gets out anyway.

2. What is the first thing you buy for yourself?
Financial freedom, meaning I pay off this mountain of debt that is threatening to avalanche us.

3. What is the first thing you buy for someone else?
My mom has always wanted a Mercedes Benz, which she calls a "circle car". I'd buy her a sparkly white one.

4. Do you give any away? If yes, to whom?
I'd give some to my relatives, even the ones who don't need it. I'd give a big lump to Tonya, so she can hire someone to beat the hell out of her child-custody interfering asshole Michael of an estranged David soon-to-be-ex husband Jackson who shall remain nameless.

5. Do you invest any? If so, how?
Oh yeah, but I let someone who knows how to do it, do it. As long as I get a decent monthly income from it, I'm happy.

Man, am I cranky today or what? Methinks I need some more coffee and a quick watch of "Father Ted" or something.

I think we're both cranky. Coffee would be good, and maybe watching an episode of "The Waltons" (those quirky red-headed Depression-era God-fearin' "can't be that bad" mountain hicks).

If I watch the Waltons I wind up throwing things and screaming "Goodnight John Boy! Fuck you, John Boy!"
I never deal well with "heartwarming".

Wow - I'm actually tempted to do this one.

I re-read this several times and noticed I don't get squat if you win big. Don't make me stand outside yer place on the sidewalk wearin a lovely suit and tie, clutching a fedora in one hand, and wavin a cigar around in the other! again.

Ah yes, Father Ted, that'll do the trick. You can shout "Arse!" along with Father Jack.
