Back in the swing of things...

Oh, Mondays. Have you ever stopped to think if you hate Mondays because you're supposed to hate Mondays? Or if you actually do from the bottom of your heart DESPISE the fact that it's Monday and that there are 4 whole days AFTER today that you still need to work? That doesn't pertain to myself I realized while writing that. Because I am one of the very oh-so-lucky few that has a part-time job. But along with these part-time hours comes with a part-time paycheck, which I realized is not enough to support my spending and drinking habits (hence my credit card decline this past weekend, ouch). Oh well - and the show goes on. I tried to rationalize it by thinking of my friends who have loan payments to make every month. My boyfriend has $1000/month payments, I'd be paid off in no time!!! And he has to make that for the next few years. Unfortunately I don't even have an income that would support a $1000/month payment, I only make $800 measley dollars a month.

As you might have been able to tell already, this post is a rant of my incapacity to make money or obtain a job that is equally challenging and fulfilling. I say this as I sigh because I feel completely hopeless in the situation that I'm in. I will refrain from describing my woes anymore, in case the Christian Okoye of attorneys actually reads this. *******

I'm considering breaking into the "mommy and daddy will you pay off my credit card and I will pay you back" fund. But I've already done that once, and paid it off. So I would feel like even more of a 24 year-old LOSER if I had to ask a second time. Especially since my parents aren't exactly raking in the dough either. I even considered the "grandma and grandpa will you pay off my credit card and I will pay you back" fund, but my grandpa's got his mistress to pay for and heaven forbid she could go a day without a Big Mac or something.

Maybe I should go back to work and actually earn my $9/hour. What a treat. Until next time folks... And I promise it will come sooner than later like last time...
