    • ]]>     This is turning out to be one expensive day. I started off by going to get my prescription filled and OOPS my health insurance has expired. SO, I had to shell out $200 for my pills. Then I went to Kinko’s to print out our marquee poster for Abaddon, and it ended up costing $50. Plus I had to buy a new jumpdrive cause I lost mine, and that cost another $50.Then we went to lunch at 11 City Diner and ran into Derrick. Yay! Well, lunch ended up costing $26.00 but apparantly that wasn’t enough because I tipped our HORRIBLE waitress $11.00 spending a total of $37 on lunch. I didn’t realize it until it was too late. I swear to god I thought that was 20%. OOPS. Then we leave the restaurant only to discover that Harmony’s car was towed. That’s $150 towing fee plus $10 storage fee plus $50 parking ticket plus $10 cab fare. Plus we had paid the meter $2.00 to park for the illegal 2 hours.

    TODAY’S TOTAL SO FAR = $459.00

    Plus I promised Eric I would buy him a new bed because his inflatable air mattress no longer works and is essentially sleeping on a wood floor. And I have to order $250 worth of postcards for Abaddon. And I have to pay rent for next month. And I have to get more posters printed = about $60. And OF COURSE I have to have drinking money. How else would I deal with my everyday life??

    I’m excited about going to see solo in blue tonight. I’ve heard great things and I’m always so proud to go watch our shows.
    …oh and my cat started pooping on the floor.

    I think I’m going to go spend what is left of my livelihood on a good night out at the bar tonight after the show! If I’m going to be poor, I might as well enjoy the hell out of it!

    Warmest Regards,

    Eric Martin
