[Poll #1201185]


And here's your explanation, oh wonderful flist.

I have come into the possession of a $65 Visa giftcard, to use for whatever I want. It is a delivery refund from Lowe's when we got our new washing machine (the old one died in a horribly messy fashion). My mom apparently doesn't want to use it for anything, so she gave it to me. Unfortunately the giftcard expires in September (wtf such a short time), so I have to use it up before then.

I also happen to have a $25 giftcard to Target, which was a birthday present from my cousin. I was planning on using it to buy Guitar Hero: On Tour for my DS, since the $25 would pretty much cut the price of the game in half. See, because I want Guitar Hero, but not enough to pay a full $49.95 for it. >__>;;

I originally thought I'd used the $65 card on clothes, since my wardrobe is kinda of lacking these days. x__X;; But I could totally buy a bunch of other things that I haven't been able to buy for months and months because I have no monies (zomg manga). Or I can buy a little of this and a little of that. @__@

TELL ME WHAT TO DO, FLIST.


EDIT...

I also have a $5 gift certificate for Amazon. >_>;; I just realized that I could finally get Chain of Memories and the guidebook, with free shipping, for a bit over $20. *gnaws things*

*grumbles some more and might be having a rare moment of actual brooding and emo, and doesn't say anything*

Sora: *offers a little smile and rests his head on your chest*

It was excruciating for me with Rikka, Ri. Please... understand I don't want to go through that kind of pain, watching him grow up before my eyes again, watching me become 'uncool' and 'unfun' and 'a complete bore' in his eyes. I can't do it again. I can't... obsess.

And always remember. You're her Daddy. You'll always be the number one guy in the world to her. Nothing and no one can replace you.

*wraps his ams around you and buries his nose in your hair, because that's always comforting and he's feeling needy all of a sudden*

Why can't they stay little and cute? I don't want to give up being their everything.

Srsly, this is making ME weepy.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *might be weepy now, holding you close, too*

I don't know. I knew in the beginning that they'd grow up, but... I feel like my nest I spent seventeen years building is just... emptying before my eyes, and it hurts so much.

*gives your temple a kiss and nuzzle*

... hey, we're still young right? Reasonably?

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: ... well, we're pushing forty. So not really. .__. But at least I don't look as old as you! Why, are you thinking about adding a new line to the army?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*goes pink, embarrassed you guessed so easily*

We don't have to. I mean, the Twins are barely teenagers, and Baby is still little and cute.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: It's harder to get pregnant as you get older, I think. And if we want to, we shouldn't wait too much longer. *is deep in thought*

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*squirms a bit thinking about it* ... well, Riku would be all for trying to have more mini-yous running around. You two could try for it, if you really wanted to.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *looks at you* And how do you feel about it?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

You know that I've always wanted lots of kids. But if it's really harder to get pregnant as you get older, it's going to be even worse for me. *gives you a little rueful smile* It's already a miracle that Satu and Sanyu are mine.

But if you and Riku wanna try again, you know I'll be here, too, to be Daddy.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *shakes his head* It's only really an issue for women, I think. If you wanted to try... for another... I would be all for it.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*looks a little confused*

But if you really want to have another child, I'm not the best choice. You know I'm not.. *trails off a bit and then gives a shrug* I'm not fertile.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *turns red and casts his gaze down at the floor, before remembering there's laundry to be put away*

I guess I just... really always wanted to have another of yours. Maybe we're capable of... another miracle.

*gives you a smile and a kiss, before bracing the laundry basket on his hip and going to deliver Kira's clothes upstairs*

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Another miracle, huh? *and he snags you around the waist before you can get away* If you really want to try with me...

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *is wide-eyed and his heart skips a beat, because he was surprised* Yeah?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah. *he's a bit pink in the face, and sorta can't meet your eyes* You know I always love the 'trying' part anyway.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *has a slow sort of smile* Then we'll try for another miracle. *leaves you with a Very Sexy sort of kiss, before heading upstairs*

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*he's a bit stunned by that, and can only watch as you walk away*

... HEY THAT WAS SO UNFAIR.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *is snickering as he knocks on Kira's door~*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *there is loud bouncy pop music playing inside her room~* NO RIKKA YOU CAN'T HAVE MY EYE LINER BUY YOUR OWN.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *laughs and knocks again* It's me, Kira. I have your laundry. I think I got that pair of leggings back into some semblance of shape after your Papa accidentally tried to get them on...

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *throws open her door then, wearing a cute outfit she spent her last allowance on~*

Oh, Mama! Thanks! I don't know why Papa would try to put on my leggings anyway.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *grins* You always look so cute. Maybe you should take me shopping. And yeah, Papa is... Papa. But that's why we love him.

*hands you all of your laundry and has learned to leave you guys alone so as not to be overbearing*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *giggles and sets her laundry down to do a twirl for you* I got it on sale! Oh, Mama! You should help me figure out the perfect accessories for that new dress.
