Poor Mofo

The other half turns 30 this year and I would love to do something special for him - whether that's going away for a weekend, having a stripper for a night, or being able to afford that digital SLR he's so been wanting. But alas, I'm a broke mofo, or I will be when the big day arrives. All my money that doesn't go to rent, the car, bills, beer, or food, goes to paying this semester's tuition.

I feel like I'm in the The Rocking Horse Winner no matter how much money I earn it's still never enough. Granted, I would have been fine if we didn't have to buy the new car. Growing up is difficult.

I currently have a job, to which I am very thankful for, but I have loans from a college that I'll never graduate from and no degree, in a job that might have paid me more if it was the private sector. I'm scared of change, I'm scared of being fired, I'm scared that in ten years I'm going to be sitting in the same position as I am now.

My love deserves a great birthday this year, no reminders of three years ago; a parental unit stress-free day; no OG waitstaff singing - just a celebration of the birth of one of the most important people in my life. He makes life more colorful with his crazy diatribes about the illuminati, the guy two doors down getting a BJ on the porch, and his art of photography.

When's the big day?

Here's my advice on the life scene - don't worry about the loans, everyone has them. Follow the happiness, girl. Sure, it sounds simple - but it has worked for me thus far. Don't be afraid to be selfish about your happiness - and when that happiness comes from making others happy (K, for instance), you both win.

My birthday is the second Saturday of September, so it's a ways off.
