Finances?

It's like, every time I am about to do something really productive or get excited about something, someone always ruins it. It just happened to me a few minutes ago...
I was about to work out. I never get to work out because I'm too tired from work or business meetings. I was motivated to work out tonight. I had a bunch of energy and I was ready. As soon as I was about to start, my mother comes in and tells me I need to partial pay for my contact lenses. Let me tell you a little something about my finances. The last paycheck I got said $387.30. I spent the entire thing on my laptop that I am typing on right now. The one I got today said $474.36. Not bad right? Well, my contacts cost $431.92. I already feel bad about spending my last check on this laptop. I didn't really need it, as much as I convinced myself I did. I don't really want to spend this check on small pieces of plastic to shove in my eyeballs. No. I have three pairs of glasses. I don't need contacts. I don't even wear them that much. I only wear them when I'm not breaking out, which is never.
I'm looking at buying a car soon. I thought I would have to wait until January, but I recently hit the jackpot. No, I didn't win the lottery (that would be nice though). A woman came into my work with her stupid Mini Cooper. She had three bags of stuff in her trunk. She said she was going to donate them, but she didn't really want to go down to the shelter, so we could have them. Okay lady.... Anyways, so we went through her stuff and found these two really nice watches. A Breitling Navitimer and a Cartier. The Breitling (according to my own appraisal) is worth anywhere from $4,000 to $8,000. The Cartier is worth around $2,000. Now why this lady would get rid of these watches I don't know. Maybe it's because she was recntly divorced and used the money to buy herself a new (crappy) car and get custom leather in it. They were his watches and didn't know how much they were worth. But that's just my theory.
The watches belong to me now (my precious) and I am free to do what I want with them. If it wasn't for them not fitting my wrist, I would have never known how much they were worth and had a pretty new toy that would get super damaged and be worth nothing within minutes. I'm not good with watches.
So the moral of this story is, keep your watches. They might be worth something....
