sparks (not hal)
Via
kmsqrd, I now know about
spark ... aka "writing prompts". Now, I'm known to blather on about all sorts of meaningless stuff, so hopefully these will guide me toward creating at least one on-point post each day (or thereabouts).
Today's spark: What is the last luxury you tend to give up?
My computer. I can't imagine not owning one. If I had to give up my car for six months and take public transportation (oh wait, I did), not a problem. No cell phone? No problem (if I remember to carry it, it's a rare day indeed). I already get my hair cut at Cost Cutters (think Supercuts knock off), so no problem giving up the $60 haircuts (I used to do that, then really didn't see the point). Shoes? Been wearing the same ones for like 5 years. I haven't bought new clothes in ages. Haven't got around to hooking up my kitchen faucets, so I still don't have running water in my kitchen. But a computer? I take it everywhere, and treat it like gold. I even bought a special
cooler for it. Priorities!
