Reality bites

In an effort to not spending anything yesterday, I instead cried about my finances. No really.

I've never been one to own the consequences of my actions. I figure, if I just ignore the bad stuff or better yet, gloss over it with a smile and a joke, everything will be just fine.

After a couple hours of self-pity and awful daytime Saturday television, I called B.

B: Hello?
K: {silence} ...Hey, it's K.
B: How's it going?
K: {deep breath} ...Well, you told me I could call whenever and I've been stuck in bed and I can't get out because IamsostupidIspentsomuchmoneyontripsandclothes
andgradschoolandisittooearlytodeclarebankruptcy?
B: HA!

B talked me off the ledge and in 10 minutes I realized that I'm not alone, that it's time to face reality, and that I'm really grateful for my friends.

Yesterday: $16.45 - coffee and cab home from late night party.
