Payday today!! I'm trying to get the enthusiasm levels up like all you Wednesday pay people from last week, but when you have a strict budget it's all divided up and spent before you get it anyway.
It is nice seeing the car money creeping higher though - I've gone from "could buy another car the same as mine if I crash it" level to being able to get something that's a bit nicer. Slowly moving towards the point I can buy a car I would actually choose to buy without being forced by the death of my current one.
my pay doesn't land until Thursday night, dammit. I much preferred a previous job where it would arrive on a Tuesday afternoon. somehow that feels much more civilised.
