Today, miraculously, I got through the whole day without spending any money. It is the first day I was able to accomplish this feat of mental strength, but hopefully not the last.
As a direct result of not spending any money, the total fun I had today, measured in decibels, was zero. Well, very close to zero. I fell well short of my daily quota of 9746 decibels of fun, anyway.
Before I left Los Angeles, I never thought I would miss it, but I’m afraid I am in that oxymoronic position. Things are different here. The sun doesn’t shine very often. The girls don’t often walk around scantily clad. I don’t get to play Smash on weekends. I don’t get to drive my car. My parents and my home aren’t a short, 13-hour drive away. I think part of the problem stems from my surplus of free time. That’s right, I’m complaining because I have too much free time. It gives me too much time to sit in my room and relax when I should be stressed out, doing homework. Oh, how I miss being stressed out.
