And then there's the strange people you meet on your way TO Aldi! ;)
How much money did you have leftover for food after hitting the fabric store? Oh yeah, you mentioned the government kinda helped out with that, and your Xmas gifts, and I mentioned how Kelly Temp Services has paid me yet again, about 4 years of vacation pay, about frigging time!
Am i spending it on Xmas gifts? Heck no! Half the people I'll be spending my holidays with won't deserve much of a gift, and the other half will understand how REALLY broke I am. I'll STILL be spending my money at 1/2 stores and dollar shops, because after paying off my bills for oh, the overdue this month, paying next month, getting the letter saying another unemployment extension is running out, the rest of that legal settlement goes POOF.
Brice got me a 1 day CTA pass. My classes Wednesday start at 1pm, and Thursday at 5pm. If the days were reversed, you can bet I'd use the heck out of the pass. But he asked if I wanted to do lunch on Friday. There's also a Graduate Portfolio Show at the school... er, Holiday Inn @ Merchandise Mart on Friday. If I get my timing right, that 1 day pass could serve me pretty well on Thursday-Friday, not so well trying to do Friday-Saturday though.
