A portable air conditioner...

...and now I'm returning a portable air conditioner. Turns out it'll blow out the circuits no matter what room I plug it into. (I didn't find this out firsthand, thankfully, but was informed by my landlord that I would experience that result because of the overwhelming amount of power the thing would be drawing.)

Why any company would make something that is supposed to be convenient into something that clearly has a woefully limited use is really beyond me.

The plus side is that our wall unit was apparently broken (I thought it just sucked by nature), and now that it has been fixed, it does a better job of cooling the previously unreached rooms, but still requires me to leave my door open and point a fan my way. So, once again, I'm left with either closing the door and sweating my ass off or sacrificing my privacy to the world's most annoying roommate for the sake of being comfortable.

Unfortunately those portable AC units run pretty high on the amps. Might want to see if you can find one that draws a lower amount.

Considering it's been around 100+ degrees with the heat index this week, I bought a tank top...because apparently I don't have any tank tops anymore... >_>

My favorite princess movie. <3
I just received it today and the colors are a lot more vibrant than the picture. Plus, it's super comfy!

Man, why does all the cool stuff have to be made for kids? I'm not usually a shoe person. I only have three or four pairs compared to most women's collections of fifteen or more. I can't really justify the cost to the realistic usage.

But man oh man, I was set and ready to buy me some fuckin' rainbow sequin tennis shoes.

They were perfect. Beautiful. Now they haunt my internet searches. I'm scrounging around for something similar (or more hopefully, identical) in an adult's size... but alas, my efforts seem to be in vain. The humanity! :cry:

And I don't even have a 3DS yet, but no way I was going to miss out on grabbing a SMT Limited Edition. The device shall come after.

Also, picked this up off PSN since my original PS2 copy disappeared for some reason years ago and I, shamefully, never managed to get it replaced.

This goes with my happy thread post, but here are a few more shots of my most recent purchase and reason why I'm broke

It doesn't have all the bells and whistles that it could have, and isn't the newest model, but hey, it looks good, runs well, and gets me from point A to point B so I'm good with it. (well, it has AC, so I'm not complaining anymore :D)
