Bills Due, Bills Paid

Even though it’s been nearly two weeks since most of my monthly bills were due, I’ll finally post about them now. I again managed to scrounge up enough money to pay my monthly debts to society—even reluctantly dipped into some of my cash savings that I prefer not to touch—and covered the $448.98 that went towards rent, utilities, my student loan payments, phone and the $20 minimum towards my credit card (which will be paid in full assuming Uncle Sam’s money goons give me my tax return soon).

That said, I have been going out a little more lately and have spent almost as much so far this month as I did all of last month. Though, looking at the stats more money has been spent on random items such as gas (I’ve been cheating and borrowing my cousin’s car lately) and a few more meals have been dined out upon (like how I avoided saying “eaten out” there?). Still, more than likely, even this month I will stay below the $1000 average and will avoid completely depleting those cash savings any time soon.
