Pay it off.... to myself....

Changed things up a little bit. Decided to figure out how much the camera and concert tickets cost me, and I'm going to try to pay it off with my little savings system before I save up for the next purchase. Of course for the camera stuff I went ahead a put in the 4 filters I still need to pick up. But no more after that... until I pay it off that is. As for my scrapbooks fund? I'll have to think about it. I may have to spend the next year trying to pay that off if I apply the same system. So yeah.... I'll do some calculations later... =p

clear it out...

I've become very particular about the organization of my room. The clutter got to me again. I didn't even make my bed this morning. So I went ahead and did it. And cleaned my desk. And put my clothing away. And I can breath. Best feeling in the world.

$10 bucks air fare?

Something to chew on...

Oakland freeway fire/collapse

I'm waiting to watching the news during rush hour....

I'm teaching myself patience

Something like that. This whole budget thing really put a leash on me. By the way I'm doing the recalculations of budgets on the monday of the first of the month. That's what I did today. Looks like so much more to spend... but it really isn't. I only want to buy stuff for a few categories... and those budgets are sooo small. It's the beginning of the month, I'll have to pace myself. I have to constantly remind myself it doesn't matter how much I will get paid, this is as much as I can spend for the month. And that, is how I save money.

Lots of work on my car today. Had an oil change, filter and gaskets, then we dropped off the car at Costco for new tires. Apparently I have a nail in my passenger side rear tire. Well no wonder it's been leaking.

Had lunch with Dad today. I'm still muching on my leftover pad thai. So good. I realize I haven't talked to him for a while. I rarely get to see him. So that was good.

The weather has been so nice the last few days. I love flipflops.

My room is messy again. Really should take care of that. I did some cleaning at work the other day. I spent an hour sorting out papers and throwing stuff away. It never looked so clean. If I can do that at work, I can do that at home. Clutters now bugs the hell out of me.

almost monday

My hair is really long. I dug out my scrunchies just now and used one. I have a really think pony tail. I don't remember the last time my hair was in this good of shape. Feels weird. But it's so cute! lol...

Scotty was beamed into space today. By that I mean the ashes of James Doohan was blasted into space via a rocket today. I dunno why I find that amusing.

A tanker full of gasoline blew up at the Maze this morning. That would be the area where there is a gigantic amount of freeway interchanges are right off the Bay Bridge at Oakland. Part of one overpass *splat* on another. I don't know how else I can describe it. It was interesting. Traffic is going to suck. I'm glad I don't live around there and do I care about the A's and Warriors. There is going to be a free day of public transit tomorrow. Think about it. Free rides for 1 day. Good thought, it's the right thing to do. But come on... one day? This is going to take months to fix. Maybe there will finally be more people taking up mass transit. I'm thinking this could be a blessing.

The entrepreneur in me is itching to get out again. This time M and I are thinking greeting cards. She has already had minor success selling some of her designs. I'm more into handmade cards. I've been known to pay a ridiculous amount of money for crafty cards. There is definitely a market out there. I'm thinking we will have to start small. Friends and family, small boutiques. It's pretty labor intensive work. But I think it'll be fun. I have all the material we will need to do work anyway. This will be fun.

I think I will spend some time tomorrow clearing out some stuff from my room... again. I just feel like it. I'm starting to feel my room is getting cluttered again. I guess I'll have to hang up clothings... lol

I need to make a new list. I've been inspired the other day by the list of movies coming out this summer. That's what it's going to be. Films to watch. Good times. I'd be amazed if I get through half of it. But whatever.

School is almost done. I'm looking forward to it. I have a couple of weeks off. Not quite sure what to do yet. I sort of feel like going somewhere. I won't have a chance again until the end of summer when my classes are over.

Sharks are playing tomorrow night. I will be unresponsive between the hours of 7 to 9:30.

I've been so exhausted from work the last few days. I don't know what it is. I'm usually really upbeat about it. The day felt so long today. It's just weird. It feels like I'm getting so much done, and a little too fast. Almost every customer I talked to today didn't know what they were talking about. some people are just so frustrating. When I get one after another, I want to pull my hair out. My hip is still pretty sore. I did put in some gel insoles today. Yes, I'm gel'in. haha.

I'm thinking I want to skip yoga tomorrow and just jog. That way I can sleep in. Speaking of sleep.... zzz....

breakfast?

I forgot how good Honey Bunches of Oats is. I was hungry just now and was lazy. I'm not working all that long today. Yay! Time off is fun. Probably go running after work.

Came up with some idea with my friend on selling greeting cards. I can probably get some of them going today. mmm... after I finish the Mother's Day card... =p
