Being Financially Responsible

I dislike trying to control my spending.

It’s such a killjoy.

However, today I managed to avoid spending money on a new Mac.

How, I’m not sure.  ’Specially since I really want a new Macbook, and when it’s maxed out it’s only $2K.

*Urgh* — I dislike being responsible.

Tonight I paid off my credit card and my Federal student loan.

That’s -$80 a month.

I have to wait until the 20-something-th to find out if I can pay off that old card that’s been hanging around, but I really should.

Then my credit report will contain nothing of a negative nature.

Let me rephrase that: I will have no debt that makes banks nervous.

I will have a record that I paid it off.

That kinda freaks me out.  Just a bit.

So — that leaves me with one thing outstanding: getting an apartment.

Oy, what a step that is.  Going from having nothing but the grace of a “parental figure” and their possessions to getting a place for myself with my own possessions…

It almost seems too large a step to take.  But, I’m thirty-one now, I should be able to cope.

Should…

…

As long as I don’t get that iPhone or that Macbook until after I move.

…

But my current laptop is dying.  I mean, audibly wheezing.  On a 10-minute basis.  It just started wheezing now.  And my cell is a piece of crap, designed by retards in their off-time from the coal factory.

…

It’s freakin’ hard.

Having fun, readers?  Please do.  I have little fun to spread to you.  You’ve gotta find it on your own.

Skåll!!!
