I am Joe’s continuous budget woes…

**sigh** $40 left to buy food. I don’t need too much. Lets see; bread, rice, milk, chicken, soup…vegetables. Wonder if I can squeeze that out of $40. O.K., so I still have all of the checks that I haven’t cashed yet, which would come out to $100. But I really wanted to put all of that into my savings…And duh, I have to do laundry too. That’ll be another $20. Poo

I am Joe questioning his cell phone service…

Saw this article on CNET about ATT waiving the canceling fee because they are set to raise rates. ATT is not bad; their customer service is better than Sprint (WAY Better). But the thing with my phone is that I get crap reception inside my house. And then I got a flyer in the mail from Verison and they have 700 minutes for $40 (I have a 60 min/$40 with ATT.) But Suzanne has Verizon and she has a funky situation with her phone where she can’t use it out of her calling area. Something to think about

Current music:

She’s got eyes like Zapruder

She’s got eyes like Zapruder
And a mouth like heroin
She wants me to be perfect like Kennedy
This isn’t god, this isn’t god
God is just a statistic
God is just a statistic
Say “show me the dead stars
All of them sing.”
This is a riot
Religious and clean
God is a number you cannot count to
You are posthuman and hardwired
She’s pilgrim and pagan
Softworn and so-cial
In all of her dreams
She’s a saint like Jackie O
This isn’t god, this isn’t god
God is just a statistic
[chorus repeat]

“All that glitters is cold, all that glitters is cold.”

I am Joe’s evening with his roommate…

Me, Mike, and his sister Lauren, headed out to Berkeley to have dinner @ Zachary’s Chicago Pizza. Talk about grubbing; that was some good stuff. We had a good time there, just talking and eating. While we were there, this gorgeous Brazilian chic walked by. She was just drop dead gorgeous. Mike was being sly about looking at her; I was just gawking and staring at her.
Anyway, after dinner, we headed back to the city to get some ice cream at Mitchell’s. OMG, that was some of the best ice cream that I have ever had. I have a Kahlua Cream Shake, and shared some of Mike’s Mocha Fudge. I wanted to get a 1/2 galleon to take home, but didn’t have the money. Also wanted to get a tub of avocado ice cream for Suzanne and her family since they like smashed bugs so much.
Maybe it was the Wyder’s Pear cider that I had mixed with the Kahlua in the ice cream, but I am tired and ready to goto sleep. Good thing I have a manager’s meeting tomorrow @ 10am so I can sleep in an extra hour (or make it to the meeting on time in my case.) Hopefully, the computer system will be back online and we can start to receive some of the stuff that we have been getting before it gets any more backed up.
