Eh, well, I’ve been on a diet since…April, it seems. I’ve been trying to make sure the numbers have gone down at a steady rate, but some days they’ve dipped down by large unhealthy amounts. I’ve dipped down under 200 at some point, and to be honest, I never thought I’d get there.
Of course, I’m talking about my bank account, not my weight. Hahah, frankly I can’t imagine weighing until 200. It’s been a spending diet! Anyway, after graduating, I’ve been trying to tighten up on my spending habits (not including my Japan splurge), if only because I didn’t have a steady income. It has been tough, and to be honest, I’ve given in many times. The lure of spending to socialize was often too great. As such, money flowed like…um…maple syrup (definitely not like water, but not as thick and slowly as molasses).
Well, even though I didn’t get paid this week, I’ve lifted my spending block. Sort of. I have gift cards for some stores that I’ve been holding onto until I’ve been in a spending mood. So, I’ve been using those, as well as putting things on credit. It’s all right though because I know that I’ll be coming into money really soon. So, I’ve got some new clothes now, as well as Futurama Vol. 2 and Drawn Together Season One. I’m going against conventional wisdom, and all, but I kind of enjoy shopping. I like getting nice things. So, I mean, knowing that I can spend again kind of feels good. It’s like I’m no longer forcibly cutting myself back.
Ah, but now that I’ve splurged, I have to cut back once more until I get paid. I can last two weeks.
I think.
