Science Fiction Convention... fun?

Oh sure, I had a great time. Meeting celebrities, visiting with internet friends, but was it really worth it? Did I really spend a ridiculous amount of money for 1/10th of a second to spend with an actor? Someone who I'll probably never meet again in my life?

Yeah, I did. Of course I thought it was great idea at the time. I did, that is until I received a credit card bill stating that I had spent over $1000 on everything for one weekend in Chicago, a Gold Pass to have dessert and breakfast with the actors, and then on photograph and autograph tickets.

I tend to spend money a lot, not thinking of the consequences until I get my bill and my monthly payment has skyrocketd. That's when I get disgusted with myself. I think I need help!!
