we want macbook pros

so, maggie and i want to own macbook pros. a lot. however, we do not have money. we have committed to own them by our second christmas together, at least. this is our plan. our plan which includes a money jar.

  • Start jar with $20 a piece on move-in day
  • Every time we have sex, we put $10.00 in the jar.
  • Every time one of us is too lazy to do something, thereby forcing the other one to do it, the lazy person puts $1.00 in the jar.
  • On every federally recognized holiday, we both put $1.00 in the jar.
  • For our birthdays, instead of giving each other gifts, we put however much in the jar we would have spent on a gift.
  • On Valentine's Day, instead of being sad and spending money on chocolate and ice cream (or whatever), we both put $10.00 in the jar. Unless we have sex on Valentine's Day, in which case the amount would of course double.
  • Any money left in pants when put in the laundry will go into the jar.
  • Whenever two different tv programs want to be watched at the same time, the person who gets to watch what they want puts $1.00 in the jar.
  • Whenever the remote is lost the person who cannot find it will put $1.00 in the jar.
  • Each paycheck, we put $10.00 into the jar.
  • Every time one of us participates in one of the items on our list, that person puts $2.00 in the jar. Unless it's a really embarrassing one, in which case it's $50.00.
