Yeah, I would have been screwed because of Christmas if I hadn't been paid three times this month. God looks out for fools and children.

Next time I get paid three times in a month is May...if I'm reading the calendar correctly. Nice! I'm planning on going out to CA at the end of that month I think.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Who else here gets paid once a month?

Art Crawl!!!

Gloomcookie - those are my paydays too!

When I first worked for the state - we got paid every other Friday - oh those lovely 3 paychecks a month times. . . oh well. (It inconvenienced Accounting and thus - went bye-bye.)

Who else here gets paid once a month?

Me. I find it way too difficult to budget.

It took me a few years to get used to it. Now I have a rough sense as to how much money I should have at any point in the month.

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

Mine too. I like it better than every other week.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Once a month here. I actually find it easier to budget, but that's only because the paycheck hits a few days before a bunch of the biggest required monthly expenses -- I plan everything based on knowing that mortgage, bills, yadda yadda are taken care of at a time when there's enough in the bank, and everything after that is stuff where it's possible to tighten up if I have to.
