fiscal hibernation

It's an adult concept.  What kid has ever had more than $5 and thought, "gee I could save this, or I could spenditallimmediatelyomgrightnow.  Yeah, saving sounds way more awesome"?  Even a ten year old Warren Buffet would cringe at the mere thought of it.  Fiscal hibernation.  Yuck

And yet, this is where I find myself.  Enough money to survive, live comfortably, without worrying, but I'm an adult so I don't feel like I'm doing it right if I'm not worrying about something.  

So why am I writing about it?  Simple: blogger is free, my internet is a budgeted expense that my roommates won't let me cancel, and I need an excuse to turn on my computer every once in a while to sync my fitbit.  Duh.

What am I gonna write about?  I dunno.  Hopefully never my hibernation.  Probably my (mis)adventures in trying to cook for myself.  Probably even more about my very dumb cat.

Why start now?  I'm almost done with the fifth Game of Thrones book and I keep putting off reading it so it doesn't end.

Is there anything else you feel compelled to explain?  I have a cat named smallcat who used to be able to fit in the palm of my hand but is now approximately the size of a full size bed.  The internet loves cats, right?  I'll just keep talking about them, then.

Giving Up on Humanity

I was texting a friend last night about how much I hate things (there are a lot of things I hate) and at one point I said, "whatever I'm giving up on humans and turning into a velociraptor".  which, in my head, looks something like this:

If you're wondering what a "raptor noise" is, go watch that part in Jurassic Park where the raptors trap the kids in the kitchen and try not to have nightmares for the rest of your life


My friend responded to this message in the best way possible: "can I please be your only human friend??  You and VelociRautins can be friends!"  this is what our friendship looks like:

On the off chance that you don't follow Syracuse University basketball, Andy Rautins was a well-coiffed guard and a self-proclaimed "ba11er", according to his license plate.  An SU fan put his head on a raptor body, coined it VelociRautins, and brought a sign to all the home games.  If you're thinking that it sounds pretty lame, you can't even comprehend how wrong you are.

The point is, VelociRautins and RaptorMe look pretty good together.  I think I may have just found myself my next boyfriend.  Score

I like airplanes

To illustrate this, I drew you all a picture:

I hope this gives you an accurate feel for what this blog is about (I have no idea what it's about)
