Budgeting and such

This is something I might do every once in a while... it's kind of silly, but we'll see how it goes, and if I like it, it stays. If you don't like it... well... no one's reading this at this point anyway.

(More after break.)

ANYWAY. So I'm currently unemployed, which is a barrel of fun. I have a few job prospects, but none of them are anything too major, and are more small part time gigs that'll pay meager wages. So I decided to try to keep my spending limited to an average of $10 per day... which might be a little difficult for me. Here I'm going to track my spending in (hopefully) an effort to keep me spending as little as possible.

Monday:
$0.

The benefits of spending time at home is that you don't have to spend anything if you don't feel like it.

Tuesday:
$10.50.

$3.50: Today my May term class began. It's kind of a cool class, maybe if I'm motivated I'll write about it later, but for the purposes of this it pretty much means that since I'm in town from 4:30-10:00, I have to buy dinner. The $3.50 spent was at Burger King, because I was feeling thrifty and such.

$5.00: That thriftiness was thrown out the window when I felt guilted into giving a homeless guy $5 right as I was caught with my wallet out sorting my money. Fudge.

$2.00: Snack and a soda for a movie.

Wednesday:
$109.50.

$100f'n.00: My REQUIRED text book that I could not find anywhere else, and has NO RESALE VALUE AT ALL. DAMN IT ALL TO HELL.

$1.50: Runts. Because I like Runts.

$8.00: Chipotle burrito and a drink.

Thursday:
$8.50.

$0.00: DVDs at the library. Not an expense or anything related to this post... I just wanted to feel like I'm doing something right.

$8.50: Chipotle burrito and a drink.

Friday:
$11.50.

$11.50: Groceries! I got some peanut butter and some bread, which I think should tide me over for a while (jelly destroys the heart and the soul of the peanut butter sandwich, by the way... as if it thinks the sandwich is too great, so it inserts itself into the sandwich to bring it down to the jelly's level). And I had lunch purchased for me, and everything was superb.

Today:
Probably a lot.

Gonna go see Up today, and might do something for dinner. Exciting times, for sure.
