The Word "Lush" Will Suffice
Okay, so I think I'm borderline alcoholic. I'm just kidding. I'm not anywhere near being an alcoholic, but I have definitely been drinking a lot more than I need to be.
Alcohol costs money and I have spent so much of my dinero on alcoholic beverages in the past couple of weeks. There's no one to blame but myself. My co-workers like to go out, and I am all about a party, but I need to practice a little more self control. I have very expensive tastes. I spend about 30-40 bucks on drinks everytime we go out. And, ironically, I complain about being broke the next day. It's a vicious cycle.
Since Halloween, we have gone out five times and each time I have consumed beverages of the alcoholic persuasion. Yeah, this week is definitely gonna be a sober week. I'm down to go out, but it'll be water for me. Why? Cuz water is cheap. Let me digress a minute... the price of a rum and coke is ridiculous! Well, I don't think this is digressing since it helps prove my point. A rum and coke should NOT be more than $3. It's like the beer of liquor drinks! It's simple and therefore should be priced as such! I'm not a big beer consumer, but I have been drinking it more recently since it's cheaper. Most beers don't cost more than $3. I spent $6.50 on a rum and coke yesterday! What the hell, man?!
I've also been buying liquor and having it in my apartment. Not too proud of that. Never wanted to get to that stage, but I actually think it's smarter this way. At least by having some liquor here, if I am not going to drive I can get my drink on here. This will prevent me from drinking as much, if at all, when we go out.
This sober week is definitely needed. It'll help me detox and save what LITTLE money I have left. Can't wait til payday. Well, actually I can. I'll still be broke after that too. Where is my raise?! It hasn't been a year yet, so I'm just being really impatient. I just hope I get one. That's what has me so ill about everything. Since Microbac was having financial issues I haven't received an affirmative as to whether I am getting a raise in January or not. All the higher ups say I'm doing really well (I'd like to thank alcohol. Because of it I got all the information I needed to hear from them. I'm a sneaky devil. I like to prey on the drunk). All the positive words they said to me keeps hope alive in my heart and gives me the strength to go into a thankless job and work hour after hour after hour (add about 10 more hours to that). I've said it before, I like the job, but once my year hits, they need to offer me something to entice me to stay, otherwise I'm going to have to start looking again. I know if I do get a raise it won't be much but every little bit will help at this moment. Know what else will help? Not drinking so damn much!
I'm going to do better. I've put it in writing so now it must be followed through! I can do it! I HAVE to do it. My savings account is on life support...
