Cashmanimal 0 #1 October 30, 2007 So I am sitting here at my desk, just got done with my first class of the day and was reflecting on some things.... Today is my birthday. The big two-oh. I decided I wanted to go get a hair cut (much needed) and eat some pizza to celebrate with myself. I go to the ATM, and decide I should check my account balance before the withdrawal..... $19.50. Nevermind. Walk around the little ATM sub-station to my other bank...... $15.00. Nevermind. Go to the third and final ATM option.... the joint account with my parents.... $25.00. Yeah! Do my business.... it spits out the $20, I take my card, and my phone rings. It's my father, who I haven't spoke to in months. (parents divorced, mom re-married for 8 years now, don't speak to real daddy much). So we talk, for quite a while. I walk to the pizza place while we do. Finish the conversation, order, pay..... oh wait. Congratulations to me on answering the phone, grabbing my card, and leaving the twenty in the ATM. Holy hell... So, due to complications in getting paid I have officially hit financial rock bottom. I go to my barber and tell him I just need to relax, I have no cash, it's my birthday. He hooks it up. So now my head feels better, but I am pretty bummed out. I have enough money for gas to get to the dropzone, and not jump.... no carpools.... I GUESS I could do homework, but.... haha! It's my birthday. If I can't do what I want to do, there's no way I'm doing something I don't want to do. So I have chosen to take the day off, and sit here, and do nothing. I couldn't be more excited about it either!It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cashmanimal 0 #11 October 30, 2007 Birthday update: Just dug deep into our fridge (yes- it is the perfect college stereotype.... all alcohol, no food) and found 3 REALLY old hotdogs, and half a can of Hormel from god knows when. I microwaved the chili with a few slices of cheese on top of it, boiled the hotdogs (which softened up nicely) and had a pretty tasty little snack. Here the proof: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l123/acashman19/IMG_0684.jpg http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l123/acashman19/IMG_0685.jpg Here is probably why we never have money: http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l123/acashman19/IMG_0589.jpg edit to add: I noticed in the picture there is lettuce on the bottom shelf. I bet that's been in there forever.... obviously we always look straight past it.It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cashmanimal 0 #15 October 30, 2007 QuoteDo you work? Oh, I actually have multiple jobs. There was a serious error at my bank (partially my fault, partially theirs) that has stopped the transfer of money into my account, which I didn't know until it got overdrawn and then locked. Should be all resolved in the next few days.... this bowl of chili better go a loooong way!It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cashmanimal 0 #18 October 30, 2007 Actually, I think my initial post sounded a little more depressed than i actually am... I just thought I would share the irony with everybody! It's really not so bad. I just think I wanted that pizza so much, that it was a big let-down. Look at my fridge! I'll be MUCH happier later tonight.... gonna put that Bob Barker costume on again and party it up!It's all fun and until someone loses an eye... then it's just a game to find the eye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

virgin-burner 1 #20 October 30, 2007 happy b-day! by some of the comments of the female dz-crew, you shouldnt have such a bad birthday after all. otherwise, you do something completely wrong in RL as opposed to online..“Some may never live, but the crazy never die.” -Hunter S.
