Oh, look! A relevant poll!

[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*

Sora: *rubs his ear* Honey, I mean... the stuff that doesn't fit anymore, or the stuff that you don't like. We could put it somewhere else like the thrift store and you'd have more closet room. I mean, do you really like having to barge in their room for your shoes?

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *getting weepy* But they're my clothes and all that stuff comes back and even if it's small I can give them to Baby and oh god Mama don't take away my ShinRa don't take it awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: O__o Honey, I'm not taking anything away. Just making a suggestion, you don't have to take it oh god don't cry! *hugs you* I know I'd be sad if someone threw away my shoes or something. I understand.

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *clings on you and gets your shirt damp* You're really not taking my clothes away?

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *smiles and runs his fingers through your hair, kissing the top of your head* Never. But you can't keep things in the Twins' closet unless they say it's okay. Okay?

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *pouts but nods finally* ... it was just a few pairs of shoes anyway. >_>;; And they weren't using the space.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: ... but they said it was okay, right?

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: >_>;; Of course they did, Mama. *snuggles with you!*

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *kisses your forehead, before grabbing his laundry basket and heading out* Good. Going to get their laundry now, so be good. ♥

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: 8D!! I'm just gonna call one of my friends, Mama! We need to plan everything about the bonfire, oh since I'm wearing pink and black, we shouldn't clash~ *makes a dash for the phone*

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: Sorry, honey, we're about to eat dinner. You can have it after eight. Spaghetti sound good? And rolls? *LOVES CARBS THX! and is going to go and deliver more clothes*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: ;o; *she wanted the phoooooone~*

*meanwhile a certain Daddy is sitting on the floor with the Twins in the living room, playing video games*

Ri: DIE! DIE DIE DIE!
Sanyu: No, Dad! You're doing it wrong! *scrabbles for the control* You pull off the Break like this!

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *is amazed at how very quickly Ri went from BABIES! to DIEFUCKERDIE!* X3

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Ri: *he's just happy to see his sons enjoying the gift he got for them, and leans back to watch Sanyu tear through this level*

Satu: *has the game guide open over his lap and reading frantically* Okay okay... there's a treasure crate in the far right room, but you should kill all the Nightmares in the room first. They drop some good stuff.

Sanyu: *gives a nod and has his character throw himself into the fray rather recklessly!*

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *feels very warm watching the three of you together, watching the similarities in your mannerisms show*

Oooooh! This is my favorite part! I was over at Uncle Rox's house when Dante was playing this. Good thing you got the guide. *winks*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Sanyu: *jerks a little bit as he plays, eyes narrowing as he focuses on slashing through his enemies!*

Satu: *speaks up for the both of them~* Don't tell us that Dante finished Empire Souls II already?! Did he get all the Secret Files? I bet he hasn't beaten the secret character yet! We're leveling up more to take him on!

Ri: *is just a little bit amused by this*

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *laughs and is amused too, and steps forward to ruffle Satu's hair and kiss his head*

I dunno, but Mama's gonna be the final boss if you guys don't get in here to eat dinner.

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Ri: *hauls himself off the floor with a smile, and gives a stretch* You heard Mama, boys. And really, he's way harder to fight especially when it concerns food.

Satu: *squirms from the kiss, but is still at the age where it's kinda-okay; and then he kicks Sanyu's rump lightly* There should be a save point up that ramp, but get that treasure crate you missed!

Sanyu: *cheers when he busts that crate open* YEAH! We can make that Optimal Weapon now!

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *gigglesnort* "Optimal Weapon"? What a goofy name for a weapon. *will give Sanyu kisses too ^o^*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Sanyu: *squirms and must pipe up to defend his blade!* It sounds weird, but it has the best stats in the game. It takes forever to collect all the forging materials for it! This is the last thing we needed! And it looks really cool, too! You'll see, Mama!

Satu: *nods and flips through the book to show Mama the spread on all the dreamblades, and especially Optimal Weapon and its amazing stats!* See! See! Look at the attack and defense it has! Better than Promise-Maker and Forgetfulness!

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: *is very engaged in this, and looks over the spread with much interest!* Well that sounds cool... *mumbles* Still not as cool as SOS Shell, though... *grins and goes to fix the plates full of pasta and rolls and CARBS*

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Ri: *is busy filling up glasses with water or juice or milk and such* Just remember that I don't want you two to keep playing for hours. Finish your homework after dinner, and then you can play until bedtime.

Satu&Sanyu: *make general whiny noises but settle down in their seats*

Kira: *there's is a loud thudding noise from upstairs but this is normal, because Kira is pounding on Rikka's door* PAOPAO TURN THAT OFF AND COME DOWNSTAIRS FOR DINNER.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Sora: IAWTC. Boys, I need you to hang up your clothes in the closets. They are not carpet. *takes his usual seat towards the middle of the table*

Paopao: GO AWAY. I'M COMING. *and the music turns off and a boy that resembles Rikka comes out, his eyeliner removed and his hair falling in soft waves instead of its usually forced flip, wearing lounge-y clothes* What's for dinner, did Mam- Mom say?

[windandwater.livejournal.com]

Kira: *makes a little 'hmph' noise and follows after Rikka* Food. Because food is always for dinner!

Ri: *has gotten the booster seat for Baby (because she is small for her age) and helps Riku settle her, before they take their own seats* Hey! I don't want you two arguing during the whole meal.

[luscious-sarah.livejournal.com]

Rikka: See, this is why I should get an early dorm. *points at Kira, and has a seat between Satu and Sora, happy to see the huge basket of rolls and immediately stakes his claim over it*

Sora: *is busy with making sure everyone has some of everything*
