Just finished examining the budget that will control my life for the next two or more years. Starting Monday, 'cause I want to continue being frivolous for just a little longer.
Twenty-two dollars a day. That's for food, gas, entertainment, and anything else not bill-related. Fuckall, that's quite an adjustment for me. This is going to mean grocery shopping, nights spent watching tv instead of going out, bar nights of two or fewer beers. I mean, I suppose I can go a few days of only spending a few bucks, then blow the money I've saved on a night of debauchery once every week or two. But still.
It's a damn good thing I'm single, 'cause I just couldn't afford a girlfriend right now.
But I suppose it's going to force me to eat better, and maybe to stay in and complete my school assignments or maybe even write.
On that note, I should mention that I'm writing a review of Once Upon a Time in Mexico for the school paper. My first assignment. Our little boy is growing up...
