I’ve put it off long enough… 4 months… I’m gonna do my finances… see you in about 4 hours… argh…
Vodka and chicken nuggets… not a bad combo…
12:32 AM update: you know it’s bad when you’re grabbing receipts and bills by the handful
3:16 AM update: interesting… I have a receipt here for $51.74 of gas back on 08/10/06 but the charge never showed up on my bill – NICE, free gas!
3:22 AM update: hmmm… another charge to Target that isn’t on my bill… this one is for $45.63… wait a minute… this smells fishy…
3:25 AM update: MAN! I knew it was too good to be true… apparently it only let me download the last 4 statements. I was missing a couple weeks in my tally… dang it. I guess that’s what I get for procrastinating. Perhaps this is a sign I should get some sleep…
Man, I can’t believe this is going to be a two-day-plus affair… I guess I should have known from the pile of receipts…
UPDATE: Finally done! It was worth it just to get rid of that niggling feeling that my finances weren’t in order. I don’t think it’s because I like to have things in order just for the sake of order. I think I really like the analysis part. I guess it’s the same reason I really get too much into fantasy football.
haha. tell the truth. was that for me?
what is the purpose of doing this? to prepare for filing tax return?i never save receipts…should i start doing it?
hmmm .. beer sounds better with chicken nuggets. but how was it anyway?
you drink too much
Wow, lots of questions…
edensong: haha, you know… I didn’t even realize, so… maybe subconsciously?… but also because it’s all I had in the fridge… I need to go shopping.kwabert: it’s to satisfy my obsessive complusive disorder… also it does help come tax time… and when analyzing my spending trends… and to stick it to “the man” when he tells me more than a year later that I didn’t pay for a parking ticket that I obviously did… actually you should start saving receipts now that you’re a homeowner… for insurance and writeoffs.desafina: nah, beer is too “bready” to really complement the already “bready” nuggets. I think the more neutral vodka helps bring out the flavor of the chicken (albeit, processed chicken) better while the saltiness of the chicken helps ease some of the vodka’s bite.TenW40: you lose at poker too much
Try a nice glass of red wine. It tastes great with nuggets too! 🙂
i can’t believe u actually look thru your reciepts and do ur balances…i don’t know many people who actually take the time to do that. tat’s awesome.
