If I had 1,000,000 we would absolutely still eat Kraft dinners. We are both cheap that way. The girl would prefer to call it frugal, but let's be honest cheap is as cheap does.
And I would like to state for the record, some things are worth the price. Take pillows for example. She scoffs at me because I will pay $80 for one pillow. I'm not gonna lie, it wasn't easy, but I don't spend more time in the day in any single other place; it should be comfortable.
She on the other hand would rather spend 12.99 on a pillow. And then buy 5 pillows. This is great if there's the possibility of a sleep over or orgy breaking out, but at our age I suspect neither one is highly likely. One good quality pillow should suffice.
So what happens apparently is she gets to pile four pillows on top of each other in an effort to create one usable pillow while I get the one flattened extra one, which by the way, is not unlike sleeping on the bare naked mattress.
Now she will read this and say' "HEY, you make me sound like ________________." (I'm not sure how she will fill in the blank this time) She will then follow that proudly with, "And I did NOT spend $12.99 on any pillow! I bought them at the Dollar Store."
Baby, if you can spend $80 on a bike seat the least you can do is spend as much on a pillow. Wait, what am I saying I bought the bike seat too.
Hi Sweetie, I love you.

I'd like to say I was with the *girl* when she read this and she didn't even get half way through before stating "I don't think I even paid $12.99 for them."
Do I know her or what? ;)
Impressive... kind of scary, but impressive nonetheless. Although, I'm with her on this one. I am not the pillow shopper of the house, because I'd bring home a dozen pillow-pack from costco....
