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.)
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

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

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Spending downfalls:
Clothes for me and Em, house stuff - especially bedding, make-up, a good hair stylist.

Back before I said "oh FUCK" when I looked at my cc bill, it was 90% bars and restaurants. sometimes clothes.

Eating out is another big downfall for us. We're trying to be better about it, but there are still far too many nights where I get home from work and say "No, I don't want to cook."
t tangent Since the Yahoo profile went live yesterday, I've been getting more mail to GCS. The one that just hit my inbox was one saying that they hoped I was working on a book, because they think the world needs my words. Awww! t /tangent

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
god, this discussion has me mentally piling loads of stuff in my house up in piles to get rid of. Thing is that wouldn't generate much money. I could do with another round of ebaying though. Maybe get a burst of energy and list 20 or so things that should fetch money.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
someone should hook you up with an agent!

More like someone should poke me with a stick until I stop being intimidated by working on my second draft of the proposal.

This discussion is making me glad that I've already got the next gothy yard sale scheduled. But I need to take some pictures of things I want to sell on eBay. It turns out that a signed 1st edition of Marilyn Manson's autobiography goes for over $60 on eBay. And to think I was just going to take it to Half-Price Books!

oh, yeah, I have that downfall. But I do really only get my hair done done a couple of times a year. Okay, maybe once a quarter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Nurses just asked if they could get anything for me. "Painkillers or permission to go home." They thought it was funny until I told them how long I've been sitting around hurting.
Seriously--I'd rather have untreated pain at home in familiar surroundings than in some strange room eating something that looks vaguely like pasta primavera.
