Over the last 4 weeks or so, I’ve spent about $450 between two different girls (If you recall I was dating a hot Italian girl, but I’ve recently upgraded to the Persian express.) Call me crazy… For some reason this new girl I’m dating just really freaking like going to the movies, and last night was no exception. She just HAD to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3 — and I just had to take her.

Festival of Frugality 74 is finally here. Lots and lots of great posts. –I was going to do an excellent mother’s day theme, but the lack of related posts left me wanting.

Whenever I am “in love”, my life turns completely upside down. I don’t follow any of my routines, I don’t think about my next great projects, I don’t play basketball every morning at the crack of dawn, I don’t post any new articles. hehe.

Since I couldn’t manage to get my lease renewed at my current apartment yesterday, I went looking for a new place and I was lucky enough to come across an awesome house that is renting for less than my current rent but had more rooms. It then came to me to consider leasing the house and renting out the two other bedrooms at prices that would make my portion of the rent only about $200 total.
