This week is freaking expensive.

The night before we left for Boston the crappy car got a flat tire. It wasn't imperative that we get it fixed before the trip so we waited until we got back. Took it to get repaired yesterday- can't be repaired. Have to buy a new one. $150.

I put on the only strapless bra I own so I can put on my bridesmaid dress and show FSIL. My boobs are like falling out of it since I'm on my period and that makes then 50x larger. Had to go buy a new strapless bra I'll never wear again. $70. 

Hair dryer just stopped working this morning. Tried resetting it, changing outlets, no luck. $40. 

Went to this super fancy looking place to get mani/pedis with FSIL and the other bridesmaids. When we get there FSIL says she wants us to get french manicures on nails and toenails, but doesn't mention that's an extra $20 bucks. $80! (The dumpy place near my parents house charges half that AND they do a better job) 

To top it all off, next week I have an appointment set for my big shoulder piece tattoo, which is going to be like $400 for the first session. If I had known that all this *** was going to build up I would have set it farther down the road, but I'll lose my $150 deposit if I cancel/reschedule. 

 

Guess I'm eating ramen for the next month!

Re: This week is freaking expensive.

  • I know what you mean. It seems like everything happens at once. My tuition is due, car registration, and had to pay to cancel the DTV. All of this on top of a wedding I'm attending next weekend. I'm glad I have an e-fund. 

    I eat ramen 6x a week  as a choice. : )
