frugality is the new black
Sep. 4th, 2009 03:08 pmAm feeling rather smug having just used the word 'duplicitous' in a conversation. Yes, yes my day to day life is rather sad and lacking excitement :P
This weekend marks the beginning of my hermit-like behaviour. People will be seeing a lot less of me as I really have to knuckle down to reduce my outgoings. I have the payments on the 10k loan I took out for the club which are about £230 plus I need to reduce my giant overdraft so that I have it available as wiggle space if I ever need it for club emergencies. This means after Flock tonight (WOO FLOCK!!) I'm unlikely to be out for the rest of the month. Including missing Slippery Belle, Heather's birthday and Wendyhouse.
Boo!
I foresee much home entertainment being required. Have![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
eddy_ and pyropaws over for boardgames and films on Saturday and I can see myself playing a lot of wow and watching a lot of CSI on the BT Box. That said I've spent £20 on train tickets down to see D next weekend as I can't expect him to do all the visiting as he's hardly flush with cash either. Plus I get to see Wols at the Raptor Centre. Woo!
ah well - no point complaining - I've been partying like a beast for a number of years so a few months of hermitude won't kill me. hey I'll still be at whitby and I have a couple of gigs to look forward to.
In vaguely related news the insurance stuff is mostly here - new telly is way more plasticy and smaller looking than the previous one despite still being a 32" sony - makes me realise what a bargainous thing of beauty the old one was. I sold my unlocked boxed replacement Nokia 6300 for £70 on ebay - my first ebay sale ever - it went suprisingly quickly and hopefully everything has gone smoothly with the transaction. Given that ebay is the reason I'm called Sarah Orange* (I needed a user name to bid on taxidermy that I never won and everything else I tried was taken) it's quite odd that it's taken me 8 years to get round to selling something on there.
* *wonders what she was called before then...?*
