Day 9: Bad Math

So yesterday, as I was writing this up, I had a mini-freak out because I didn't think I would be able to afford a car payment and a settlement payment for my credit card when I get my new salary. It turns out, I was doing the wrong math. I use the ADP Payroll Calculator (a helpful tool to keep you from guessing what your next paycheck will be) and I only figured it for working 40 hours on a biweekly paycheck schedule. When I went back and realized I had screwed myself out of half of what I would be making, things looked much better. Not only can I pay my bills and a car payment, I can afford a decent sized settlement payment as well. Now, I just need my start date.

Earlier in the year, I had outlined a one year plan for slowly getting fitter. I think I will harvest that plan and implement it over the course of the year where I am paying off my debt. More on that later. Today, I am going to enjoy this third day of a three day weekend. I'm not sure what I am going to do but I will make sure it is relaxing and/or fun. Hope anyone reading this is having a good day, too.

Food since last time: My parents offered to buy Burger King so I got a Big Bacon King which is just way too much burger for one human. I had also had fries and a DP. Then, for dinner, I made a pizza with extra cheese, bacon and pepperoni. I ate 3/4ths of it and drank about a liter of DP. For breakfast this morning, I had a weiner and that last 1/4th of the pizza with a cup of DP. Definitely switching to diet sodas this week to see what a difference it makes, calorie wise.

Pop Culture since last time: I read more Infinity Gauntlet and the Impossible Fortress (about halfway through it now). I watched one Kimmy Schmidt episode and several Master of None episodes. I also watched the Korean horror flick, The Host. And I saw most of a very edited version of the US remake of Death at a Funeral with my mom.
