I just was home to see my family for Easter. My mom gave me a lot of things, as she typically does. Some of them I welcome with open arms, like toiletries. Stuff you need but don't really like spending money on. I'm very happy when my mom hands me bottles of body wash, or the ever expensive contact solution.
Some of it is holiday dependent and I accept begrudgingly. This is usually food. My mother knows I don't want all this extra food but she gives it to me anyway. This Easter I am in the middle of trying to lose weight so I specifically said no chocolate! She told me not to worry... she just got me a "little bit." It was, no question, 10,000+ calories worth of chocolate. Yeesh.
The oddball thing I got this year was some old gold of mine and a some broken gold pieces to sell back to a jeweler, presumably so they can melt it down and do whatever with it. You know, like cash4gold.com, but not a total scam. So I'll be doing that later.
I actually used to wear gold in high school and college. I wouldn't be caught dead with it now. I also actually used to wear a big gold cross with our own personal lord and savior Jesus Christ on it.
From, you know, back when I believed in that sort of thing.
I'm also going to get Jesus melted down. On the day after Easter.
On the third day he rose from the dead, and on the 4th day I sold him to a jeweler to be processed into melted gold. Praise be to Jesus!
I read online that a good price for gold is $7/gram. Should I ask for $10/gram when trading in the son of the lord?
