... and that's saying a lot. I'm not allowed to have a Twitter account, because if I wrote down the shit I think as I'm thinking it, I'd be committed in a week tops.
This one takes the cake though. We sort of screwed the pooch on the budget for the next two weeks. My wife forgot to mention her medication when we discussed the budget, which was going to be tight anyways. It would have been nice if she had called BEFORE I handed the dude $100 for the guitar. Anyhoo, what's left is the food budget, the only place where there's any money that can be flexible. So how do I stretch our food budget to last two weeks, minus a quarter of what's left?
Beer. I'm going to use beer as a dietary supplement. It IS calories, after all. Calories keep you alive, right? Your body doesn't care, does it? I've got vitamins, I've got some food. I have 40-something home-brewed beers in boxes in my office. I've got 13 days until payday, I can drink three beers a day, I can survive dammit!
I'm not sure in which direction my wife thinks I've lost my mind... but clearly she thinks I've slipped into LaLa Land.

Oh, DO report back on how THAT works!
And thanks for the laugh first thing in the morning... I needed it.
omg. what a genius plan! perhaps you can supplement with top ramen? yep, that is another bowl full of healthy nutrients, no? lol!
hope some extra cash comes along unexpectedly!
off topic, but i am with you on chickenfoot! all the way! they seem WAY more fun, WAY more likeable, and WAY more interesting than the present-day line-up of van halen.
I think your plan is wonderful. And for future reference (from my lovely experiences at college) one can sustain on beer and a few other staples (bread, peanut butter, ramen) for weeks at a time!
