Gah, it is incredibly annoying to try to figure out a way to make money over the summer. Me and my boyfriend have been trying to come up with ways, preferably that don't involve working for annoying people (this has mostly been things to make and sell online that would be useful things). We've not been getting anywhere though

.
If we manage it, then there are plans for the money. If we can get $500 from this, we're planning on buying his mom a Kindle DX

. She's been wanting a kindle and is debating a kindle 2 if she can somehow pull together the money, but the DX fits her needs a lot better. There is this problem of making $500 to afford one though.
It seems a worthy goal for the money though. Yeah, its working and not getting to use the money to pay rent, and needing to deal with rent some other way, but getting someone who would benefit a lot from an ebook reader the one which really does most good seems worth it.
Now to finding the way to get the money. Gah. So irritating.
