Countdown to Judgement—pah, I’m done counting
I woke up early enough this morning to have the time to wrestle my way into my uniform and one particularly combative piece of architecturally-inclined topwear, when I received a phone call from a number I barely recognized. Second glance proved it to be the supervisor, and so I picked up. As it turns out, the weekend sales have been ludicrously slow lately, and this weekend has thus far been no exception to that rule. After having picked up extra time yesterday—not to mention a screaming pain in my leg—I got the day off.
So I slept until eleven.
The next thing to do was errands. I took the $5 tip I made this week and spent it on:
· 56 trash bags (vanilla scented) and
· one Coke contour juice glass. Would you believe it was only 50₵?
Next was the recycling. There old phones, two old batteries for phones (where’d that other one go, anyway?), and done. For a while I wandered Best Buy, wondering how much I could save on a Nook case. After seeing the prices, I aborted that plan. My Nook shall remain naked until I know I’m safe.
Then it was home. Home and light bill.
*watches the money flutter away* So long, O $71.86! Why must you taunt me, bills?!
*huffs* I’d better beat this thing, ‘cuz if I don’t I’ll be soooooo pissed…
*4 hours later*
OK. I’ve assembled two corner shelves using no more than my hands and a butterknife (no screwdriver), repackaged meat and tea and cocoa, eaten more processed meat than was good for me, and rearranged the pantry AGAIN. I’ve balanced my checkbook, and the program projects that I’ll actually be in the hole $38 next week.
Here is where I throw a Giant Middle Finger™ to the world. HOW DARE YOU SCREW ME OVER, LIFE?! YOU DARE?!
