my downfall is mostly that I don't keep good track of what I spend. That and my pets. I'm sure there are many others.

Yup, that was. When we lived in the loft and could walk across the street to the brewery, well, we did. It was yum. But a whole lot of our pocket cash went to those restaurants and bars pretty much completely unnecessarily.

How much do you pay to keep her there?

Heh. It's more that we need to spend lots of money in order to go see her. If we don't, there's the guilt. If we do, we're out at least $2K and there's guilt because we can't do it often enough to make the guilt go away.

I spend money when I am bored. seriously?!?

and in reponse to Theo - I know I need to be harder on myself, because I am always thinking that other people who are having trouble with money should just x,y, z and then am I even doing those things? NO.

and a girl DOES NOT have to drink.

sometimes she really does!

Spending downfalls: oh god, lots. The fact that my eccentric wardrobe is my hobby accounts for most of it. And books. But most of my purchases are from thrift and second-hand shops.

My downfalls: eating out; buying expensive booze; how easy it is to get me to think oooh, shiny, want; the cats

I agree, you guys. It's not like I really think the voice makes sense I blame Dick Cheney. Although it doesn't sound like Dick Cheney, either. (Which at this point sounds like Jon Stewart saying "wah, wah, wah" anyways.)

Downfalls, in order: booze, eating out, music (curse you, iTunes!!). And now vroominess - there's insurance, gas, etc....

Spending downfalls:

Clothes for me and Em, house stuff - especially bedding, make-up, a good hair stylist.
