Dateline 6-2-2017
/Well, not only did I end up not starting yet another challenge but I took the time I saved by postponing the start date to give myself a fuck it day where I did absolutely nothing productive at all after about 1:30 in the PM. It was a nice unplanned break from my usual day of trying to keep busy at all time even when I'm not really in the mood.
I'm probably going to start my weekend a little early and repeat my schedule from yesterday. I'm in a bit of a food based mood because I have no money or anything exciting to eat until Sunday when I'll have a payment to replenish my account.
Hopefully, I'll be better with budgeting this go round. In general, I'm really good at planning my paycheck to paycheck existence to where I don't usually run out of funds and if I do it's usually because I'm buying the items that I need to get me going for the one or two days that I need to wait for more money to come through.
This time, my mistake was buying a bunch of bulk food right out the gate where I, one, overestimated how far my supplies would go and, two, underestimated bored I'd get eating the same meal every day. So, I do have plenty of food to get by but psychologically, I can't stop thinking about the additional ingredients that I'm craving to make these meals complete.
Me knowing me the way I do, I know that I'm not going to be able to fully focus on anything now that I'm this close to the end of my wait that's been going on for close to a week... hold the phone... I just remembered that I should have a payment from a small job that I did that should be transferred into my account by the end of today which means that I will soon be buying a gigantic carne asada burrito to celebrate this mini pay day!!!
So, that's what's going on today.
Talk to you tomorrow,
