I blow my wad...uh, I mean my check on gas for my wife's Tahoe, my daughter's incessant need for more and more beauty products, on their pedicures, haircuts, and of course on my daughter’s clothing habit (American Eagle, Abercrombie & Fitch, and Hollister). I also have to pay for their tanning and no telling what else they don’t tell me about. By the time that’s deducted from my check, and I pay my mortgage, utilities, and internet, all that’s left is a few bucks for actual food. The boys and I have to beg and borrow for a few denarii to get our clothes.
