Cashew Butter

So I thought I would try some cashew butter today. I saw this at the store a while ago and thought: 'I love cashews...why shouldn't I love cashew butter?' So I buy the jar ($8) and take it home to try it out. Good, but definitely not worth eight dollars. For this price I should be able to just dump the shit in my gas tank and have it run my car for a month. At least I know I'll have some food there in the back of the cupboard for when I'm broke and can't afford to buy anything else...

I'd hoped to put some money away with this paycheck, even go on a little bender, but it's never enough is it? By the time I've paid off on some checks and things I owe people, I'll be lucky to have $15 to last me till next payday, which, incidentally is rent time. So I'll still be broke then, too. Hopefully I can work it out, because I really, really, want to go see Chicago. I feel that I have not traveled enough for a person my age. I'm getting pretty tired of Richmond and Virginia and the South in general. I need to visit some blue states. At the very least. Let's not even talk about me going abroad because the finances needed for that would just depress me.

Finally, tonight, while almost everyone I know is preparing to go see The Dark Knight at 12:01 am, I'm contemplating going to see Hancock. I've heard good and bad about it, I'm intrigued by the premise and the cast...AND I have a free pass from the time there was a tornado warning and the movie theater stopped Iron Man twenty minutes in...fuck it. I'm going. Night!
