ermm.. im literally adulting ☝

my payroll is finally set up, and apparently we get paid tomorrow, so this is my last official day of being broke... spiritually. i have a lot of backed up rent from the last two months (~$1400) so i won't be splurging on CDs or dining anytime soon. but ill be able to do my laundry, pay (some) of my debts and bills, and finally buy groceries. and that's enough to let me breathe easy again.

work was chill today. i always worry so much about meeting new people and the anxieties that come with it, but the 3 people i worked with today were all cool and nice and chill. learned some more and made some more money. nice and easy.

assuming my check comes tomorrow, i think i might do all my "chores" (listed above) before my next shift. second time closing. i like this 50/50 thing i've got going with mid-shifts/closing shifts. and next week im getting 30 hrs !!! if that becomes a permanent thing that means i'm getting $1000 a check after taxes. which is literally more money than i've made in my life. and plenty for a single person in a studio apartment to live on.

after work i was supposed to go to my dads to do taekwondo but there was a family emergency so he canceled class for today. ill just stretch tonight and make up for it on thursday. i played minecraft for an hour or two, made an update about it on my neocities, and ate some leftovers. an uneventful day that i am eternally grateful for.

one of the shelters i tried contacting about cat food got back to me today. despite not literally needing cat food at this very exact moment this urgently anymore, i think i'm still going to pick it up. i may be getting paid soon, but i'm still going to be broke for a good minute, so i need to save whatever money i can. coupons, food banks, free stuff on facebook/craigslist, anything.

alright, enough yapping from me. time to watch more JCS.
