I like to say that "money makes me crazy", and I laugh while I say it, but really... it's true.

This weekend, my mortgage was three weeks late. But instead of paying it and living off of $25 for the week (which is probably what I SHOULD have done) I just said "**** it. I'll do what I want. I'd rather have this new dress... and these new shoes... and this new foundation... and these weights... and get my husband these new tee shirts... instead of living off of $25 for the week" I mean, I have to buy groceries. So that right THERE is more than what I would have been left with after I paid my mortgage. COULD I have done it? Sure. I probably could have. Did I want to? Oh hell no.

Probably a bad justification. But that's actually what went through my mind.

Hell... it made sense to me at the time.
