Wednesday Blues

Back when I played football we had a day of practice, once a week, which our coaches eloquently called "hump day". It was Wednesday - right in the middle of the week, a few days after a game and a few days before a game, which meant that we could beat the living hell out of each other for hours without worrying about injuries (mostly).

Anyway, today is Wednesday, and it appears hump day is back, because I have a lot of classes and meetings today. I'm making a quick cup of coffee right now, hopefully I can get to class on time.

As to frugality: still no call back from the part-time-job-craigslist-man. I left two messages so I retain the hope that he'll get back to me. Also, I repotted my salvia plant. In a much larger pot. Roots need room!

It cost me 2$ for the potting soil, 1$ for the new pot (dollar stores are great...) and 1$ for the sprayer I mist the plant with every morning and night. I'm a pretty good caregiver, what can I say?

I have a meeting for a real part-time job...work-study is part of my financial aid. I can work up to 10 hours a week, and this job seems to be 8.25$ a week. Meaning I can make 82.5$ (minus taxes) a week, which is far more than I am spending!

Profit! What?!?!?! It's too good to be true.

Hey, I'll post later but I have to run.
