I HAS A DEBIT CARD.

(To remember for the future: the time to realize you are out of important girl-type products is not 4 hours after you canceled your card and rendered yourself money-less).

It's weird how paranoid it was making me, considering how little money I spend overall. I guess it was just the nagging awareness that even if there was a huge emergency and I desperately needed money, I wouldn't have it. But now I do, so no more panicking! Just the tedium of updating all my online payment accounts, which luckily enough are few in number. And a lot of them still had the address of the apartment that is no more, so they needed updating anyway.

To celebrate having access to my money again, I am spending it! Just now ordered off of Amazon the following:

Showcase Presents: Booster Gold! a collection of Booster's original comic from back in the 80s, when he was just a hapless would-be opportunistic superhero from the future, rather than a secret time-traveling widower.
Marvel Adventures: Avengers vol 1&2. So much better than 616 right now. Everyone in is actually heroic, they all like each other, the good guys win their fights, and Steve and Tony are REALLY REALLY MARRIED.
Marvel Adventures: Iron Man vol 1. See above on MA:A, only with less Steve and Tony being married and more non-dickish Tony being an adorable woobie with daddy issues.

I bought the MA books used, so they were really cheap, and I didn't actually spend that much money - about 30 dollars total including shipping, which is pretty damn reasonable. And I refuse to feel guilty, since I have a paycheck coming next week. Still, will probably put off shopping trip to Trader Joe's until next weekend. Oh well.

Icon post! Because I have nothing better to do with my friday nights, it seems. XD

1x Torchwood/Doctor Who
1x Marvel Zombies
3x Stargate: Atlantis
1x Avatar: The Last Airbender
2x cake

The freelance catamite and improbable zombies icons refer to an on-going joke with

telyanofcelore . There is no evil cake-shop is a quote from a Boostle fic I wrote earlier this week that I found vaguely amusing. The Toph icon is now going to be my default for when I start babbling on about my hair (rather than my cross-dressing for justice! icon, since that makes no sense at all).

That picture of John Sheppard should thoroughly refute any remaining arguments that he might possibly be straight.
