Ooops

For­got about a $255 deb­it card pay­ment I autho­rized last month. I’ve been doing my plan­ning based on this mis­con­cep­tion and now I’ve got about a hun­dred bucks left until my next pay­check which prob­a­bly won’t arrive for anoth­er ten days.

That’s not the end of the world. Basi­cal­ly that means $50 for gro­ceries and $5/day for every­thing else over the next 10 days. I’ve cer­tain­ly lived on less, but you know, if I’d remem­bered the pay­ment for my train­er and planned around it, I would­n’t have ordered that Bat­tlestar Galac­ti­ca DVD boxed set that should be arriv­ing ear­ly next week.

The upside is that my rent was paid on time this month, and all of my bills have been paid except for two that arrived recent­ly and aren’t due until after my next check comes in. All in all I’m OK. I have a month­ly pass for the bus and if I’m itch­ing for enter­tain­ment I have a bunch of books I haven’t read and a gym mem­ber­ship that’s paid through April.

Still, remind me not to do this to myself again, OK?
