Penny Pincher

The past week of my life has been financially heartbreaking.

After my paying bills & debts when I got paid, I was left with $40. Managable, right? Not even.

Especially since I had to get a haircut($30), and pay an overdraft fee($33) for overdrawing my account($.89).

That left me with roughly -$24. No wonder I have had to scrounge around for change just to buy cigarettes.

It is all very pathetic. Luckily, I get paid on Thursday.

Now I just have to figure out how to manage that money, which includes the decision of whether or not to go to Tracks.

Pros: I get to show off my new haircut. I get to leave Longmont. I get to see my Denver boys.

Cons: I will have to hear everyone's $.02 about my hair. I will have $20-$40 less. I will have to trek back to Longmont at 4 AM to take the "niece" to daycare.

Maybe everyone's $.02 will add up to something substantial, i.e. a pack of cigarettes or some gas.

Apparently, it's looking like I might end up going to Tracks... there is a chance for me to get some, so I think I'm going to take it, even if it means no sleep for work on Friday, or Static that night...
