The Downside of Growing Up

Making my money stretch is getting on my nerves. I might as well get another job for the weekends because I sure won't be going anywhere in my little buggie as long as gas stays at the same price as jet fuel. Seriously, who can afford to travel anymore? Traveling is one of the greatest thrills in my life; suddenly I am stuck at home weekend after weekend. It's depressing... basically I am making money to eat, to buy gas to get to work, to pay my rent, to pay my bills and to buy an occasional Starbucks coffee. That eats up my pay check. Completely. This morning I discovered that my electric bill trippled... TRIPPLED! Mind you, my condo is set at 79 degrees when I am home and 88 when I am not there, which is most of the day. There is some serious unjustice going on here. To add to my frustration Tawn informed me that my water was turned off when she went to take a shower this morning. Oh dandy! Just dandy.
