Oh, this is good.
Em tells me she's interested in getting a laptop. Great, I say. I have two...one's broken, but whatever. Anyway, I do some research, preliminary stuff...no big deal.
So, I'm searching eBay tonight, and for the first time, I see Alienware listed on the laptops. I'm shocked, and I click. And BAM! There it is.
Alienware Area-51M, $2,280. Yes, it's expensive...but much cheaper than what you can get on the Alienware website. This is a MAXED OUT Alienware. There's something that needs to be disclosed at this point:
I *love* the Alienware Area-51M. I've wanted one ever since the day I saw it. And now, I see one, one that's AFFORDABLE, given our low expenses and how much we have...ok, how much Em has saved up (I have a lot of money, but not $2200 and I have a trip/car payment coming up.
I EVEN LOOKED TO APPLY FOR A CREDIT CARD BECAUSE OF THIS!!! But, since I no longer have employment, I can't get one.
GAH. GAH TO HELL. I should have seen this coming. Little things had been piling up lately...and now, here's a HUGE thing.
I seriously hate money.
