Welcome back from your trip to Dallas! |7:30 PM| THAT was a total goddamn bust.

I just got back from the gas station, where my debit card was declined at the pump. I got to find out via ATM that a couple bills or something must have hit early, and I was suddenly beeeroke.
You may be wondering how this could have happened, seeing as I got the raise and all, and my family didn't borrow ALL that much from me. I made 2 big boo boos. I didn't get a paystub in in time, and then I was out of town for the next one. This string of irresponsibility has been plaguing me for a month now. Luckily, I'm getting a very large and impressive check this coming Thursday, but until then, I'm quite SOL.
Dammit. This sucks. I wanted to go to Dallas and see some nice folks, several of whom I haven't seen in ages. It's probably for the best, though. My unstable finacial situation should probably shackle me to my house. But, the powers on and my bills are paid. I just can't drive to Dallas. That's a lot more stable and pleasant than previous times I thought I was in trouble. I'm actually feeling pretty good, considering. I'll see the Dallas crew soon, as of thursday I'll have money "hanging out of my ass" to quote Sinclair.

I'm going to fill out my taxes. With any luck, I'll be able to get a quick advance for a reasonable amount of painful interest.
