My new credit card finally arrived today. It’s about time. I only applied a month ago. It’s one of those reward program cards. Of course, now that it’s arrived I find out that my credit limit is $300. That’s pitiful.
Oh well. Hopefully it will keep me in check.

I got payed by the Citadel on Thursday. That helped. Not as much as I’d like, but it means I can pay bills without fear of checks bounding and still put a little into the credit card to stay under my limit. I also got a check from the Choral Society concert yesterday. That $250 will also be a big help. Now I can definitely make it until next Thursday for the Restaurant’s paycheck. I fear it will be abysmally small. But every little bit helps, eh?

Today I ran out of money. I knew my spending was getting out of hand, but I ignored it. I was having too much fun with my friends to restrict it. And then today I didn’t have enought room on my credit card to buy a pizza. I also just took a voice lesson and payed my teacher. $120. So now I have nearly $2,500 on my credit card and $75 in the bank. I can’t buy gas. I can’t pay my bills. I can’t even feed myself.
Painful or not, I need to work more hours, and find a better job. I get paid Thursday. I think. And then I’ll get the check from the Citadel soon too. Maybe, maybe, between the two, I can pay my water bill and keep the car running.
