Oy.

Things that have gotten more expensive for me recently:

*Tolls on the Triboro Bridge
*Gas
*Metrocards
*The upstairs cafeteria
*The candy vending machine (also in the upstairs cafeteria)
*My health insurance
*My gas bill
*The cable bill

Meanwhile, I've been reading about how:

*Criticism in dying
*The art of freelance writing is dying
*Magazines are dying
*And everyone who's smart is jumping ship

Am I on a road to ruin, or what?
