now i'm down to two dollars.

on what did i squander 28 dollars? good question.

with kind of a sad answer.

i spent twenty eight dollars on a movie ticket, coffee, a new notebook and beer. note that desperately needed groceries went by the way side. in my defense, i've spent the last month so strapped for cash that anything remotely resembling luxury was immediately taken out back and shot. and so when i finally had my bills paid, i opted to spend money on things that promised levity.

though i gotta say, spending ten fiddy on a movie ticket for "the hangover" was a bit of a hard sell. i admit freely that i choked back some tears when handing my money over...but it promised levity and levity it delivered. truth be told, i would have rather gone to see "away we go", but it was lawren's suggestion and considering he's always gone freely with mine, it would have been uncouth for me to throw a fit. and it was pretty funny with some good eye candy. obviously i mean, zach galifianakis. paunchy with a beard, yes please.

the coffee and the new notebook obviously went hand in hand. i've been writing more than i have time to actually post (i only get ninety minute increments at the library). and while not all of it is fit to print, it feels good to get these thoughts out. though i must say, i can't wait until i finally have money to buy a laptop...this writing by hand crap is getting kind of old. i'm trying to figure out ways to cajole my mother into sending me her old typewriter, but it's heavy and well, she's getting frail. not to mention the postage. so i suppose you, little mead college rule, you will have to do.

and dollar beers at the comet, you will do just as nicely. with that i leave you your found item of the day:

  1. You couldn't honestly call yourself a writer if you didn't spend your last dollar on beer. So glad you're writing, you're good! XO G
