Off Day

Can you believe that Mike ate the last gummy dinosaur vitamin?
I was so looking forward to coming home and having that.
His argument: "There was only one left. I wasn't just going to leave it there."
He literally ate the best part of my day.

In other news, I completely took the day off.
I stayed in Pooler, skipped class, and had a wonderful day of studying for finals all by myself.
Plus kitty. But kitty mostly slept.

And I've started working out again. *yay*
I thought that if I'm a loser without a job I might as well not look like one.

Also, I cashed in my scholarship for CPA review stuff, so I'm going to start studying for that and taking some parts in the fall.
In 18 months I shall be named Allie J, CPA.
And by then I shall have legit business cards and not Call Me Maybe business cards.

I made the mistake of joining Sole Society, an online shoe store.
Why is this a mistake?
Because then I see things like this:


And I really want them on my feet.
Today.
But then I see this:

$49.95

And I know that I cannot afford that until I have a job.

I should bet myself money that even after I get CPA certified, I still won't be able to get a job.

That way, if I lose the bet and get a job, I'll give myself money.
Or, if I win the bet, I'll also get money.
Either way, I'll get money from myself.

And then I'll buy the shoes.

False economics,
TWS

  1. Is your plan really to be Allie J, CPA in 18 months? I think not. On the job front, don't be discouraged, school sponsored jobs are need based, not qualification based. Once you graduate, you just need to broaden your search - you'll be snatched up immediately.

  2. Wait- you don't think I can be CPA certified in 18 months?

  3. Wow, BooBah. That's exactly what your mother thought I said, but I thought you'd pick up on the subtlety (that's a very hard word to spell). I have no doubt whatsoever that you can be a CPA in 18 months.
