So. Pending pee test and background check, I apparently have a job thing. Thus the slight name change. Because background check.
I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

Congratulations, Plei!

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Yay for new jobs!

It was a week ago today that I mentioned giving up the daily Dunkin in order to save money for karate.
Congrats. I have pretty much given up my Starbucks habit. Also being tighter on my Amazon habit. Plus, quitting (man, I hate that word) karate...should net me a savings of $250/month-ish. I have ordered my credit reports (they won't give them to me online for some reason? Too horrible?) and have put in a request to speak with a financial advisor at my credit union.
Plei (or should we avoid that nick?), pre-congrats, though I'm sure that is only temporary before becoming CONGRATS!!!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I am glad that I do not have an Amazon habit. I should probably just put a one year ban on book and music purchases unless I've been given a gift card. Should probably do the same for new clothing for myself. That would more than create enough cushion to cover a movie out a month.
Come on austerity budget ideas, what else we got?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
PMM, congrats on the new job (pending pee test)!
I calculate I'm saving about $500 this year by cutting back on the soda-drinking habit. I'll save a lot if I learn to cook and quit eating out so much, too, but that's still hypothetical. Oh, and putting the brakes on the Amazon and eBay habit has saved me a lot of money.
