retail therapy

My savings account has shrunk exponentially in the past week, and for once, it has nothing to do with being young and single. Since Thanksgiving, I've paid for:

1. Car registration
2. December rent
3. LAUSD overpayment repayment
4. Over half of my student loan, which begins accruing interest in February
   

All of this financial do-gooding has left me feeling like I will need to stay in and watch DVDs this weekend. Or go shopping. Either / or.
