I've started working with a budget; I know it will be absolutely necessary a month from now, so I figured I would start practicing with it. Jeff convinced me to use a method made by Dave Ramsey, and hopefully I will be able to pay off my student loans within a couple of years.
In the mean time, I may need to restrain from a certain leisure expense, creating a painful distance between myself and an expectant lover. I may just need to wait long past the release date to pick up the Wii. Maybe a carefully placed advertisement, before the December that's approaching, can avert the dilemma. "Mommy, can I have a Nintendo?"
On to other entertainment spending; World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade is going to be released. Water Elemental, Invisibility, Spellsteal, Ice Lance, I am definitely going to need to play my mage again when the expansion is released. I've been busy lately, and haven't been able to play as much as I should, but Corpritslave is 22 now. I was going to add a screenshot of his cat form here, but the servers are down for maintenance.
Work is going good. I'm constantly learning and I think that's important for a job to hold interest. I'm not usually a cover to cover reader, and if the sixteen books on my desk weren't coding reference material I would either be, smashing my face into my desk repeatedly, or nodding off every few sentences and waking up surprised that the book in my lap isn't a high school history text book.
