How I spent my Ad Revenue

As I am sure some of you have noticed, over the past year or so, there have been a few ads on my blog. It originally started because I wanted to make a little money to use to advertise my t-shirt designs, and well, I didn't really get around to doing that.

And because I am just making mad money from my ads doing this whole blogging thing... I mean, I could probably get a cup of coffee a week... not that fancy Starbucks stuff, or even a large one at a relatively reasonably priced chain that I am sure every Canadian is familiar with, but if I budgeted it right, I might be able to afford a small one every week. Might.

However, I just kept letting that loot build up in my account, and after my recent confessional post last week, well, I thought I should try something I hadn't done before and well, I went over to Ebay and parlayed the little bit of money I've made blogging to try to check at least one thing off that list.

Thus I bid on and won the following item:



I've fought the temptation since October 2007, but I finally gave in. Given this precedent, I guess I will start twittering sometime around October 2010.

I'm a Dudeist... I am all about the slack.

I've spent a considerable amount of time not getting any better at Guitar Hero :)

Although it did teach me that I have been performing air guitar incorrectly all these years (doing it backwards in case you were wondering).

It's a lot of fun though and I've picked up 2, 3 and the Aerosmith versions.

Will you be posting youtube video of you performing :)

From what I've read, you can switch the guitar the other way around so technically you weren't doing it wrong ;)

And I don't think the world would be enthralled to see me working through easy. I may have a lot of games and a lot of experience with gaming, but I am a quick and dirty sort of fella. I've learned I am not a stickler for 100% in anything.
