This was never the way I planned

For the love of fuck, what is UP with livejournal today? It's constantly timing out on me, the bastard.
In other news, it's Day 3 of the No Money Spending Unless It's Really Necessary. So far? I've spent $7.50. It was on tampons, and plastic utensils, because I had a dinner party last night and I ALWAYS run out of forks and these were only a dollar.
"What?" I hear you say. "That's not necessary!" And you know what, you're absolutely right. Unfortunately, I've opened them, and I can't take them back. (And the tampons were, I'm sorry, an absolutely vital, I NEEDED THEM RIGHT THEN necessity. Plus I was completely out.) I can, however, take back the plastic plates and cups, which I might do. I'm not sure, because I suspect I will be needing them in the future.
So my total is down to 92.50 right now. Twenty two more days to go, and I really, really don't want to use it all up. However, I am obligated to do a couple of things this month which will, unfortunately, require money. Fortunately, it's not a lot of money (it comes to a total of $14, roughly), so I'm thinking I will either save up my spare change (laugh if you want, but it always seems to multiply) or just dip into the hundred.
Also, I have plenty of leftover lentils and brown rice (it's yummy, stop gagging), and I just remembered I left some frozen fish in Tom's freezer, so I really should be good to go for the next twenty days. And of course, tomorrow I have to go to New Bern for my grandmother's birthday. Gas is a necessity here, but I don't plan to go over eight dollars. Thank God for low prices right now.
Having a hell of a hard time keeping up with Nano, what with several end of term projects to worry about. Always seem to be one day behind. Speaking of projects, I need to finish writing two more pages on my geography tourism project.
