conv: The other day I got a gift card in my email I wasn't expecting from someone I had done some freelance work for. It caught me off guard but I was super happy! The other day I checked my email and a former client I did some freelance work had emailed me a gift card out of the blue! I was happy. surprise gifts are always fun. Very! I decided since it was surprise money I would waste it on something fun. that sounds like a well deserved plan.
