Off from work this week. I've been working for my roommate. She's paying me somewhat near what I get paid at work, so the week off from work's not hurting me too bad, although it would be hurting me less if I was willing to work 8-10 hours a day rather than 3-4. Bah! I've been lazy. I've wanted a vacation. But I don't need one... I'll try to work all day tomorrow, and then either Saturday or Sunday. Once I get back to work I'll keep working 2-3 hours per weekday and one day a weekend for my roommate. That work will last till the end of September, so it'll be a good source of a little extra cash for a while.
I ordered groceries off Freshdirect today. Not too cheap, but it's the only way I can get good produce in my neighborhood... Unless I want to travel on the subway to a decent grocery store, and then travel back to my apartment carrying 30 lbs of groceries. I spent more than I usually do because I got some nice steaks. Rather than going out this weekend for dinner and a movie, my BF and I are going to rent a movie and eat a nice meal at home. $35 for steaks is a lot, but less than a steak dinner at a restaurant. Also paid a Macy's Bill, (I pay the full balance off every month) for a dress and some jewelry I'd bought last month for a wedding. And, because I didn't have any groceries in the house, I went to McDonalds for lunch. My groceries will come tomorrow, though, so hopefully no eating out next week (or maybe just one lunch... Maybe...)
Macy's bill-- 91.56
Groceries-- 67.19
Lunch-- 5.30
Total: Uh... A lot. Bah. The groceries will last me 2 weeks though. For dinner I'm having an ear of corn- only thing left in the house. Woo.
Meh.
