I am supposed to start school tomorrow, leave for Vancouver for a few weeks shortly thereafter, and on top of that I am trying to rescue some kittens dumped on my parents' property.

I am so tired.

I was snooping around my oldest brother's facebook page today (I deactivated my account months ago so was using my cousin's account, at her urging). Apparently (according to a conversation I read on his wall) he just spent $39000 on a life sized transformer--not of the electrical type but of the comic book/movie kind.

What?

Now at first I thought he must have left out a decimal point and he meant it was $390.00. But in reply to a comment somebody else made, he wrote that he "would be paying it off over more than a few months." And since he makes a very comfortable living, I am going to assume that $400 wouldn't break his budget and require a long pay off schedule. Can he really have spent that much? Not to be judgemental--and I am sure his 8 year old son will be tickled pink with the giant robot--who pays that much for something like that? And what will they do with it?

Of course it's his money to do with what he pleases but all I can say is wow. Wow. Wow.

Prior to my injury I was working full time doing IT support and my yearly salary wasn't more than the robot. Apparently I was in the wrong line of work....

Crazy.

I am going to post pictures here when I see it. And I am not sure I believe him until I actually see it.
