Adultyhood.

Warning: This post is about being an adult (for better or worse).

1) My computer is currently at the Apple store. They just called me to tell me it's finally all better (yay!), there's nothing I have to pay for, and I can go pick it up later. I'm currently working, and was all gung-ho about going now, but then I realized that I rode my bike to work. So I'm going to work for a while longer and then ride home and drive up to the mall.

Maggie and I did just discuss the hypothetical idea of a bicycle mileage rate. I don't think she was serious. Too bad.

2) Money is weird. I'm not sure we'll ever have enough of it. It seems that no matter how much I have, it's never enough. I was thinking about this as I was pondering the possibility of having to pay for repairs to my beloved Jorge. I guess I just have to remember that I won't always be trapped in this state of not being allowed to receive any additional income. Side jobs are a no-no when you're in AmeriCorps. And to be frugal, frugal, frugal!


That's all. :)



Except this: I made vegetarian gumbo last night. I feel so Gulf Coast. :)

  1. Hi Carolyn,

    I hope this isn't too creepy, but I found your blog and can't remember how. You probably don't really know me (I'm friends with Katie K and Siew) but I just wanted to tell you that I really enjoy reading your blog. :) I somehow got here one day, read a post, and kept coming back.

    Yeah, I guess that's definitely creepy. But I promise I mean it in the nicest way. Hope you don't mind! :)

  2. I haven't read your blog in at least a week or so...and of course after e-mailing you, I had to come and check out what was new in your life. :). And I think Chris' comment is funny.
