    It's bloody extortionate.

    Come to think of it, everything's extortionate these days. It might be that I'm short on money, but even Lidl, the cheapest of the cheap supermarket, is starting to look expensive.

    I think it's likely to be bought second-hand from a charity shop, if I'm being honest. I really need to exercise care with what I buy and when. I'm searching for a paid job, but until I find one I've only got the remnants of my student loan for the year to spend.

    You're probably right, but as long as all the pieces are there, I'm golden.

    I've bought two risk sets from the good will store down the road. Paid about 5 dollars for both of them.

    Bargain! You can't complain at that kind of price.

    Yeah, and they were just lightly used. All the pieces were there, boards were intact and even the boxes looked fairly mint. (just a bit faded from the sun)
    Probably someone cleaning out their attic or garage or something.

    Delicious!

    Now I want food, too.

    Joel and I haven't gone grocery shopping in almost a month, though. So there isn't a lot of food in the house...

    salad good, oatmeal, yucky. It is mush on steriods. It reminds me of snot. But too each there own.
    @lydia- your lunch sounds really good. My lipbalm, always ends up in the washer, but atleast I can find it.
