Spending Money
SilentJ:
Xbox Live Arcade is quickly becoming the bane of my existence checking account.
I probably shouldn't have spent well over $100 on arcade games but goddamn if they aren't really really fun.

I have spent huge amounts of money lately, but I'm feeling ok about it because Student Finance finally got themselves sorted (by which I mean I have had three letters from them since June 23rd, two of which are dated a day apart) and I'm now going to get the amount of funding I'm actually entitled to, not the £2000 less they initially offered. So I'm not going to be penniless at uni! Just very in debt afterwards.
I think the most amusing thing anyone has bought from me at work was a dozen bottles of mouthwash and a dozen bottles of whiskey. I enquired about it (jokingly suggesting they didn't try mixing the two) and they told me very gravely that they were shopping for an elderly relative and only came once a month. At the time I accepted that as a rational explanation but thinking about it, this elderly relative must use three bottles of mouthwash and three bottles of whiskey every week. That's a bottle every two days! That is a lot of mouthwash! And very probably an alcoholic relative!
Recently I've been spending large amounts of money in several bursts, but mostly it's for holidays and stuff which I always knew would be expensive. The day-to-day expenses add up; things like food when I'm not hungry, just bored, or books that I could perfectly well have got out of the library and returned for free. I didn't spend anything before I got a job, and now I spend masses all the time.

I haven't bought anything other than food or a movie ticket or something in... say, 4 months?
This might be because I have no money.

oh, if I had more income, my house would be filthy with firearms. My dream rifle runs minimum $250,000. they don't even make ammo for it anymore. (STG-44)

Yesterday, at the cinema, I spend 12 euros on two tickets to see a mystery movie. So, no clue what to expect, hoping for something AWESOME ... we end up with, drum roll please ....
LESBIAN VAMPIRE KILLERS.
Exciting title, right?
SHIT movie. Utter bollocks. 12 Euros wasted. Don't see it. Just don't.
