'Tis the Season to be Broke

Happy Birthday! My baby turned six months old today.

To celebrate, I got ripped off at an oil change place that confirmed my loyalty to Kevin, my car mechanic. Not only will I get my synthetic oil changed at half the price of these overpriced-try-to-rob you chains, I will have the comfort of knowing the person changing the oil. It's either that or learn how to do it myself which might prove to be more fun. :)

Now I'm back to the starving artist routine for two months since half of my paycheck is already missing - which really sucks, considering the awesomeness of my income. I hate the big student loan payments - but at least now I am seeing the service and value of its high dollar amount. Sigh.

On a happy note, I am done Christmas shopping - except for stocking stuffers, if we get those before the after-Christmas sales.
