Who Says Money Can't Buy Happiness?

1 Blockbuster going out of business + $80 of hard-earned moneys = cinema happiness.

You know when people say "It was like being a kid in a candy store"? This is when a movie nerd like me says it. All those years when my family and I were actual card-carrying Blockbuster members (instead of the netflix consumers we have become. I mean, the nearest movie store was half an hour away; it was bound to happen), I dreamed of being able to walk down those aisles and just grab every movie I loved off the shelves and take them home forever and ever and ever. So as guilt-riddled as I felt showing up for the first time in years for the sole purpose of cleaning them out, it was a total dream come true. The sales clerks were good sports about it, even though I did buy Back to the Future 1, 2, and 3 out from under one of them (I didn't have the heart to tell him they're for my girlfriend. I'm sure I'll enjoy them too).

My glorious 15 or so new acquisitions + me buying Spaced online = happiness

So who says money can't buy you happiness? I can curl up with Simon Pegg, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, and my girlfriend (hi, honey!) all in one weekend. Who could want anything more?
