Life recently

The job is going well. Me being me is making me feel as though it isn’t,  but it is. Trouble is, I have absolutely no money. Losing the other place, moving, and all the money to get into this one all put me back into a 30 foot hole, again, like the one that took me almost 3 years to crawl out of before.

With the other job I was bringing home almost $400 more. I’m not a person who gives my word and breaks it. I told the new one I was there for the long haul and I’m not going to work the streets trying to find a higher paying job that would probably treat me like crap.

I don’t really have anything to cut back on. Dropping OP saves me $4. I like my internet, it’s all I have for entertainment. I can drop all the +s and save I guess maybe $15 a month. I gave up smoking, so I don’t dump $ in that. I barely go out and have exactly 2 packs of tuna, 6 packs of Ramen, some oatmeal and 2 sticks of butter.

Doesn’t matter though, I’m barely hungry these days. The free ride of unemployment and free health insurance has come to an end, so prescriptions will sap the $70 savings I’ve managed to cobble together.

So, you see, everything good is followed by twice as many bad. I understand the “living day to day” thing, it would be easier not having to do it poor.
