Ugh

So I've started counting calories again. Not bc I'm back on track with my diet, no. Actually, its an attempt to make sure I eat enough! We are that hard-pressed for money now. :'(  Jess still hasnt found a job, and I'm struggling to pay it all on my own. We can barely manage to pay the essentials (rent and power), and have approx $40 left over for 2 weeks worth food and gas. Credit cards and college loans are going to have to wait. And we've both got too much pride to ask our friends for help. I mean, they have their own money problems! I did talk to Jess' mom today, and explained the situation to her, and she is going to talk to the landlady and see how much she's willing to work with us. This sucks!

I feel like such a horrid selfish bitch for being upset that I didnt get to get anything for ME for my birthday, which was Sunday. My mom gave me $150, which went towards groceries. A few friends gave me cards. That's it. I know they have their own problems. I'm not mad at them, or upset with them. I feel like I should just be thankful for all the blessings I do have, like being alive and relatively healthy, and having Jess and our family and friends. But it still SUCKS. I guess I'm just spoiled.

My upgrade date for a new phone is today. If I could just find a decent deal on a new phone that I actually want, and get that, I'd be happy. I hate the POS I have now. Its so outdated (Envy 2, anyone?), and I'm a huge technology-junkie. But their cheapest 'deals' are still $130! And that's for a stupid BlackBerry Curve! I've had a Curve before, and there's no way in hell I'm paying $130 for one!
