Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Beverly, there was recently an article in the paper about the shockingly large number of women who, because of child care costs, are essentially paying to go to work. It was depressing ... and I don't even have a child.
Having gone without a raise for a few years, and a 1% raise last year, I'm trying to cut costs wherever I can. I dropped my at-home broadband WiFi, since I couldn't get a signal most of the time, I bring my lunch as often as possible, rather than buying, ride the bus and rarely take cabs, I've tried to cut my "fun" purchases, get e-books on sale rather than buying paperbacks, or buy them from a used book place (which uses the money for literacy programs, so I can feel good about what I do spend), and just try to keep my spending down.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

My TV comes in over the antenna, I don't have a landline, I don't buy coffee very often, I don't buy many clothes or shoes, I don't go out for lunch at work--my biggest household indulgence is a good Internet connection.
then I blow it by going into Best Buy and being seduced by a keyboard cover for my Samsung tablet.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Woo Jess and PMM!
And Tep and msbelle! Being responsible.
I really need to make an austerity budget for myself. I have been putting it off for so long. I have already decided February is the month I start Getting Shit Done, making a budget will have to be part of that. (Note, not sticking to the budget, that I'm not going to even try to do until after Iceland)
