You're smart. I wish I could say the same for myself regarding money...

Well, I've started buying Banquet TV dinners for 89 cents.

But there are times when I absolutely *crave* cheeseburgers. They're like big, greasy crack rocks. I have no energy when I eat like that, and yet I can't seem to completely stop.

Oh god, I've tried eating that but I just can't. I bought some to take with me to lunch, but I almost threw up after I took the first bite.

Another fast food eater here. I've sesly had it up to *here* with fast food though. I'm sick of Jack in the Box, Whataburger, Sonic, McDonalds, Burger Street, etc. Ugh. I have tried to start eating at home more, but it's difficult since I don't like to cook and I suck at it anyways. I had a Totinos pizza yesterday (those are good and CHEAP!

) and last week, I made rigatoni. I'm so freakin' picky though, I hate everything! LOL I've recently discovered Lipton noodle soup that I love, so I've been making that once a week or so. I only eat once a day usually, then snack the rest of the time.

Anyways...about the money situation. I've never loaned lots of cash to anyone..well, once, to a close friend, but he paid me back and I trust him completely.

Well, that's good. Trustworthy people are hard to find these days

I had one from McCormick & Schmicks for (late) lunch. I even ate the fries.
