Well I finally got enough money for that ring. It was very difficult converting the Japanese sizes for rings into USA ring size. I measured a ring that already fit me and measured it... My USA size is 6 1/2, which is- *GASP* .666 inches in diameter. My Japanese size is 13, which is approximately 53.41 mm in circumference. I'm excited. <3
I got the money I needed from the first petsitting job. The Owner payed up front around 110 bucks. (Other owner will pay when they come back. I don't mind. smile ) Around 10 of that went to the ring, along with 100 from cookie dough (All of it.), and another 40 from a different catsitting job. Left me 100 for Boxing Day Shopping. We went down to Strawberry Park in Saratoga and looked around a Kinokuniya bookshop. Decided there wasn't anything there I wanted to buy. They had a Daiso Japan new across the street, and I got a Maneki Neko Salt Shaker and a Maneki Neko Teacup. (Hopefully the glaze they used to paint it isn't lead-based.) Then we went to the grocery shop next door. I got enough sweets to make Stocking (From Panty & Stocking With Garterbelt) salivate. Or at least enough to last me through a zombie apocalypse. 3 boxes of Pocky, 4 bags of Konpeito (Candy Stars), and 4 boxes of Sakuma Drops. (Fruit Drops. Has real fruit juice in it and is a nice pick-me-up in the afternoon. Shared some with my Mom. First one she got was Mint. Didn't like it, spat it out. Next one was ok. On the way home, got Gaia Cash and Lip Gloss, as well as Lip Shine. (Lipsmackers brand.) When I got home I shared some with Dad. First two were pinapple and apple. Didn't like, but ate. 3rd one was Orange. Devoured whole. I'm set, for a VERY long time. Happy Holidays, everyone.

If you don't like it, don't comment on it. I might vent or rant. I'm not immune to certain stresses, and this doesn't really help. You CAN NOT and WILL NOT hold me responsible if you're a subject of this journal. Cmon, it's not like anyone will know.
