Stalking the Mailman
Mar. 3rd, 2009 02:31 pmI'm not really stalking the mailman. It's more like the stalking a cat does. I only watch for him to leave my house b/c there have been plenty of times when I've opened the front door and he was standing there. It scared the crap out of both of us on all occaisions. So now I make sure he's already moved on to Joyce's house before I go for the mail. I'm hoping to get my Christmas & birthday presents from my dad. When he can remember, he sends me 50 bucks. I'm hoping that means a total of 100$. But one never knows when it comes to my dad.
*goes to check the mail*
Eh, nothing good except Old Navy telling us we can get 15% off when we use our Old Navy card. The rest was just junk ads. You know, the kind that are addressed to resident.
My dad got paid either today or yesterday so hopefully he'll send it soon. I'm saving up for a laptop. Prices have come down in a crazy way. You can get one for as little as 400$ and that's without a sale! So ya know, I may actually get one in this lifetime. Also, if I can quit smoking, that'll save me so much money. A carton of smokes is almost $40 and I smoke the cheaper ones. So out of each of my checks I have to take out 80$ which is almost my whole check! And I only give myself 20$ a week spending money and I almost can't do that with the cost of cigarettes. It's probably a good thing I don't have to pay for the luxuries of a car. Otherwise the cost of gas & smokes would eat up my entire check.
Being on assistance doesn't afford u many luxuries. But that's okay b/c I've never had a lot of money to begin with. Besides, working would probably kill me by from anxiety making my Crohn's flare and killing off my entire digestive tract and u can't live without a gut. A quote from Abbey on ER.
Okay enough weird talk. I'm going to try to write some before taking my shower.
