More like rainsnowsleetslush go away. It’s another gloomy day here in Chicago. I was trapped in my house last night. My driveway was a sheet of ice, there was no way I would have made it out without sliding into my house or something equally as bad.
I’m really hoping to get all my Christmas shopping done soon. I pretty much know what I am getting everyone so it should be pretty easy. There is only one person who I am unsure of, but I know I’ll figure it out! My methods of shopping are kind of ridiculous. It’s more of a “one for you, one for me” kind of thing, because I ALWAYS seem to find something that I just needwantomgjusthavetohave. I can safely say, I have yet to buy myself something! I’m waiting until after I get my presents done and then I can do shopping for Las Vegas.
Speaking of Las Vegas, I was talking to my sister and said what if I win a bunch of money? How awesome would that be? Totally won’t happen, because I doubt I will be hitting the gambling hard! It’s just fun to imagine what you would do if you won a couple grand or something. I was like hmmm, Miu Miu bag ($1200), Louis Vuitton speedy ($600), Marc Jacobs bag ($500) and then taking everyone out on me!
Plain silliness, I tell you.
That’s exactly what happens when you send a girl with expensive taste and a handbag fetish to Vegas!

The weather is quite ridiculous. I share your Christmas shopping routine though. I often find something I just “have” to have. I’m horrible at impulse buying.
If I won a hefty amount of money, I’d pay off all my bills and student loans. Then I’d buy a new computer, some books, save some and probably buy a lot of new clothes and purses. Oh, and I guess I should probably treat my friends and family to something. If I wont a crap load of money, I’d probably use some to start up my own massage clinic.
Isn’t it depressing outside, Jenn? I just want to cuddle up with a book and the boy. I know I would end up being more practical if I did win a lot of money, definitely knock out bills and school. Those would just be my fun things! Also, I’d hire a personal trainer. I need a body like Jessica Alba, haha.
I need to go Christmas shopping. I’ve got school until the 16th, then I’ve got 3 days before I go in for surgery so my window is quite small. Which is ok, because my bank account is likewise small, so it shouldn’t take me too long to buy stuff.
I’d pay off all my bills, get a MacBook Pro, get fancy schmancy camera gear I don’t need JUST BECAUSE I CAN, and fly off to Italy. For a week. Or two. Or three.
Exactly! I don’t necessarily NEEED new expensive handbags but if I CAN, I WILL! A trip would be lovely too!
It is definitely a gloomy day in Chicago. Give us snow, or something pretty, but not this “wintry mix” and rain that will freeze…. And why not dream big with the Vegas winnings? It’s fun!
One for you and one for me…. I love that idea and think I’m going to subscribe to it this holiday season.
If I won a ton of money… I would be buying more cashmere. Everything would be cashmere. I would become a cashmere queen. I would even figure out a way to line the interior of my car with cashmere.
Mmm, cashmere. How fabulous would a cashmere car be? OMG
If I won some cash, I would seriously upgrade my work wardrobe. Nice “professional” clothing is so hard to find for cheap!!
It is nice and fluffy snow here now, but it is supposed to turn into a gross slushy mess this afternoon. Boo.
Vegas is dangerous. I bought my first designer purse there almost ten years ago, and its been downhill ever since. =(
VG, seriously. One of the first things I did was looking up the Louis Vuitton store :( My wallet will hate me.
Well, have fun with your weather, because it’s December and it hasn’t even hit below 50 yet. (It did in November, just not in December)
If I won money, I would use it all to get B and I through school and then through Law School.
Oh man, I would kill for 50 degree+ weather! Lucky!
Vegas is so fun! Who are you going with?? I am totally making a trip there sometime between March and August (since I’ll be living in Cali for 8 months) and I can’t wait!!
I hope you do win lots of money. One time my boyfriend won $600 off a single pull on a $5 slot machine in Niagara Falls. That was sweet.
Nicole, I’m going with my boyfriend and his family for his 21st birthday! It’s going to be so fun.
$600 is awesome! That’s fantastic luck. Seriously.
Ohh I really like that Marc Jacobs bag! If you win anything in Vegas, you should split it with me. Just sayin. ;) If I won money… well, how much money are we talking here haha? I’d drop out of school… buy clothes……………….. oh lord, I really need to get my priorities straight.
I’d try and save the money for either grad school or buying a house, but I sure would be tempted to blow it all on shoes.
Oh girl, don’t even get me started on shoes! Lanvin would make so much money from me!
I know what you mean about the one for you, one for me thing. I’m guilty too.
I LOVE those bags…seriously hope you win lots in Vegas and can purchase at least one of them :)
Ahh, I love Vegas, I’m so jealous! I’m a total wuss with gambling, I hit up Slots ‘O Fun (the ghettofabulous casino down by Circus Circus) and play 5 dollar blackjack and 2 dollar craps. I was there in March and I think I won a total of 20 dollars. Enjoy!
at least you know what gifts you want to get for people, i am still in loser denial that its even december!
I know, Julie! I can’t believe we are 22 days away from Christmas. Craziness.
mmm i LOVE the miu miu one the best by far!!!
Sigh. Me too, Libby. It’s gorgeous.
the idea of coming into a huge windfall of money excites me to the point of hyperventilation, at which point i cannot come up with a logical thought process on how to spend aforementioned cash.
probably:
1) credit cards. boo.
2) purses.
3) maybe something for Hubs.
hey, a girl’s gotta have priorities.
haha, well at least he is on the list! you could have went with, say..shoes for number 3!
Yes, you’ll have to visit Australia sometime! It’s beautiful here.. we have some awesome beaches. I’d love to visit Chicago too… I love Oprah! Haha. Hope you don’t mind but added you to my blogroll.
Hello! I found/stalked you through Miss Alyndabear.
(pleasedon’thateme)
I loooove thinking about what I’d do if I came into money. Every time we have a Lotto Jackpot, we always have conversations about what we’d do if we won.
It’s great fun!
Hi Kirby! Thanks for stopping by!
Some couple from Canada just won $13,000 while gambling and then when they got home they discovered they had also won $18.5 million in the lottery.
I think people like that should share the good luck wealth.
DUDE. That is ridiculous!
My hubby swears that we’re going to win the lottery some day so he always plays when the jackpot gets huge :)
I always envision that I’ll hit the massive jackpot on the penny slots, haha…it has yet to happen…le sigh.
