Saved Up for a new Macbook Pro / Bought an EQUIVALENT PC, Dinner for 4 at red lobster, and a car instead
A Success Kid post.
You reach the bus stop just as the bus pulls in. You didn't run. You didn't even walk fast. You step on like a person whose life is in order, which, for the next nine minutes, it is. The card machine says "approved" on the first tap. You were not sure it would. You put the card away with the calm of someone who was absolutely sure. You pull last winter's coat out of the wardrobe and find a twenty in the pocket. Past you was careless. Past you is now also your favourite person. The 3 o'clock meeting is cancelled four minutes before it starts. Nothing about your afternoon has changed except everything. You spend the hour staring at the same spreadsheet, but freely. **Why it caught on:** Sammy Griner was about eleven months old when his mother, Laney, photographed him on a beach in 2007, clutching a fist of sand. That fist is exactly how a bus arriving on time feels, and buses arrive far more often than promotions.
