So I finally get around to posting. I must be off or something. Anyhow, there really is nothing going on, short of me not completely keeping my promise to myself that I will go out and do more. Right now it's a financial thing and timing since I have a weird work schedule. What is bothering me is that last night my sister comes downstairs and tells me to call our mutual friend Karen because they want to work something out where we can go to an anima convention. Don't get me wrong, I would love that, but first and foremost in my mind is the fact that I have bills and there is no financial finagling that I can do at this time because I have no extra monies. I tell her I can't on grounds of no money and she gives me this blank stare and then asks what about the money she and her boyfriend gave me at the beginning of the month. My jaw dropped. She totally forgot that almost two weeks ago my car was at the dealership for work done and she was the one who gave me a ride there. I told her all my money was tied up in bills and that unexpected finance.
She then asks me why can't I. Well, I tell her it's all about having money and any money I get from the two of them automatically goes to bills and groceries for my house. I know she lives here too, but sometimes I find that she really doesn't have her stuff prioritized. If she did, she would have realized she still owes me for this month because what she gave me covers last month when she decided to splurge on Christmas gifts. Not to mention she gave me less than what she normally did for that as well. She keeps thinking she has her money to spend, but she's not in our parents' house and there are other things that go into surviving on your own.
It kind of hurt that she thought that all that money she saw me get was just that- money still to be spent. Maybe I need to raise her rent.
