I can't believe I haven't commented in this topic at all this past year, despite the government stimulus money I had received a few months ago. Anyway, the very first thing I purchased with that government stimulus (sometime back in early May) was a new iPad, along with a special case with a built-in keyboard, for a total cost just under $600. This has allowed me to essentially replace my old laptop to have a large mobile device that I can use to browse the internet and work on my fanfiction writing at any time and any place (my writing progress has been admittedly slower than in previous years, but it's definitely nice to be able to simply open the tablet and add notes as soon as I come up with new ideas, rather than risk forgetting about such ideas by the time I have a chance to get more writing done). Not to mention, having a larger screen and storage space than my phone will make game apps much more practical (such as a few Lego mobile games I've been interested in trying out).

I also purchased several Lego sets over the last few months. Here's a list of them and how much I spent of them:
NASA Space Shuttle Discovery; $200
World Map; $250
Empire State Building; $130
New York City; $60
Bricks Bricks Plates; $70
Creative Building Bricks; $50
Creative Fun; $40
Creative Transparent Bricks; $30
Blue Baseplate; $8
White Baseplate; $8
Gray Baseplate; $15
Around the World; $50
Space Shuttle Adventure; $40

In total, that's nearly a thousand dollars worth of Lego products I've purchased throughout this past year. Yeah, I went on quite the Lego shopping spree, and in all honesty, I seriously doubt I'll be spending anything close to that much in such a short period of time anytime soon.

A house.  Seriously.  I'm moving in on the 24th.  It's been such an exhausting process.

Congrats! I sure know how exhausting it can be. I hope the move goes smoothly and that you can enjoy your new place :)

Very recently T-Mobile made an offer where if your a new or existing customer of T-Mobile, you get a free 1-year Paramount+ subscription. 

So technically, that means I have Paramount+ free for a year now?

Bought some holiday cards from B&N. I would rather get cards that supported UNICEF or some organization, or better yet, make my own, but uh. This year's been...out of the ordinary.
