Toonie tuesday with no toonies to spare

So, the only thing that ever makes Tuesdays bearable is the knowledge that when I am done work I get to saunter down to the Nutty Chocolatier and get myself a big two scoops of nice cold and creamy iced cream in a waffle cone for a toonie an some change... but today, though it breaks my heart to even admit it, I've not even a loonie to my name. Now, that's probably exagerating a bit...I have my investments, but they are virtually untouchable, and i've got my credit card, but the balance is up to 800 again and I really don't want to use it for such a tiny purchase, and I've got four dollars in the bank, but there is no way I'm going to risk service fees that put me into overdraft (for which I do not have overdraft protection) just so that I can drag my fat ass to the iced cream shop to stuff my face.
So woe is me for I must go without my weekly treat.

On a lighter note, I got my book lists for three of my classes and I'm getting pretty excited about University. Too bad the books are going to cost me about... a million dollars. Again... exaggerating, but seriously... one of my text books costs 70 dollars....USED! Now doesn't that seem just a little bit rediculous? Oh well, hopefully my father will be able to spare a few dollar (or...a hundred?) to help me with the purchase of these puppies.
On an even lighter note, after the cat crapping in my basil plant (you know...our new roommates evil cat of doom?) on the floor in the living room, peeing on the stove (yes...I am not joking...it pissed on the stove) and on my bag, destroying two brand new books, it seems that we have not had any problems for the past three days. Knock on wood, but I think we might just be looking at a changed animal!

So anyways, Happy Tuesday!

and to brighten your day 9or at least mine) ...

Not impressed at all...

So I've not written of late as I've been rather busy. We had a roommate move in a couple days ago and its a bit of an adjustment. It's good though. We certainly need the extra income and she is a pretty rad girl so I don't at all mind sharing our home with her for a while.

One tiny little problem though is that this morning her cat pissed all over my bag, destroying the two (brand new) books that were in its front pocket. Now, I've forfeited the 20 dollars I spent on the books and the bag will hopefully be usable once its had a good wash, but I don't think that it's guaranteed.

So needless to say I'm pretty upset about the whole ordeal. I hadn't even had the change to start reading one of the books and even more devastating, the other was nearly finished...and now I can't read it because it smells so strongly of urine I might just vomit in disgust.

On a lighter note, next weekend Josh and I are to have a Cocktail Party, which should be fun because we seldom do things with his friends other than watch movies. And seeing as neither of us like to go to the bar, it should be a fun alternative.

Well, Happy Wednesday!(image from holyjuan.com)
