I’d rather be at Books-A-Million

by The Boss

We were looking through a catalog this morning, and Ben noticed a book he thought I’d like.Then he said, “That’s it! Let’s go to Books-A-Million.” My heart skipped a beat as I thought about the books I might buy..or at least thumb through. Before I could even verbally respond he said, “I guess that was a mean trick to play on you.”

::inset super frown here::

Then I remembered, that we had been talking about our budget, and not buying anything extra to save a little money. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Dave Ramsey for ruining the whole shopping experience for me and pointing out how much money could be going into savings. It’s not that I am ungrateful, it’s just that I’d rather be at Books-A-Million. Dave, I first read your book while standing in the isle of that store, and that worked out for both of us. I bought a book, and you got paid for it.

I’d also like to thank Lee and Larry for showing Ben how much you’ve saved up!(WHICH IS AWESOME!) That has encouraged us to buckle down a little…or a lot.

Repeat after me, HOORAY for saving money! HOORAY for saving money!
