Well, the court STILL has not finished the process of jury selection, so I am still on jury duty. Although I have a sneaking suspicion (fear, really) that I’m going to be selected for the jury, since I was questioned today and not excused. Apparently my opinions and background were not far enough out there [...]

jury duty got me down
Posted in budget, duty on June 23, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
yep, i’ve been summoned for jury duty for this week. i don’t know why every fiber of my body seems so opposed to the idea of serving on a jury (maybe I’m unpatriotic?) but I’m really upset about this. I think I just hate changing my routine. Not to mention the fact that the court [...]
Losing the stuff
Posted in living on June 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Last night I managed to be semi-productive, which is a change from my usual post-work self – I managed to go through all of my clothes and pull out a LOT of stuff to be donated, as well as pulling some random home items that I no longer want, and am going to donate as well. [...]
get credit monitoring free from Transunion

I’m getting ready to leave work, but just ran into this article on cnnmoney about the class-action lawsuit that Transunion just settled. I’m going to need to look into this more thoroughly, but if all is at it seems, this is definitely something that I will be taking advantage of. And it’s on CNNmoney, so I’m hoping [...]
a little discouraged

Even though things are looking up for me, lifewise (BF and i are getting our own apartment, FINALLY, and I’ve been accepted into an educational program to start in the fall), I’m feeling a little discouraged about what’s going on with my money.
In my head I know it’s literally impossible for me to spend more [...]
deciding on student loans

I think I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m planning on going back to school in the fall. Recently, I found out that I actually have been accepted into the program that I applied for, which is good news because now I qualify for federal loans. Before I was just planning on taking classes on a [...]

I did it! – a no spend day
Posted in frugal living on June 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
So yesterday I wrote that I might have a no spend day… and I did! It may not seem like such a big deal, but I’ve come to realize that I don’t drop large amounts of money on any one thing, but rather I’m constantly spending small amounts (you know, 2 or 3 dollars at a [...]
“change”-ing my money, little by little
Posted in Food, savings on June 17, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Well, after a brief hiatus, I’m back and ready to go. My mouth is no longer hurting so much, and I’m back at work (which, of course, means plenty of time for blogging).
Nothing really exciting has been going on with my money in the past week. Despite my best efforts, I’ve spent more than I [...]
Not any wiser

This post is not as ominous as it sounds. Really, I just had my wisdom teeth removed. So I’ll probably take a break off from blogging for a couple days while I recover. But I’ll be back soon.
