Your budget has holes. $50 buss pass? I've lived at lot of places that don't even have busses. $30 for laundry? $15 cleaning supplies? What are you, a clean freak? Hell, you might as well get maid service. :p

See, this is what gets me. You people who don't have to count pennies have no idea of the realities. Fine, how did you get around in those places with no bus passes and what did it cost you? And, NO, it does NOT count if you were a membr of the armed services, a CO rep who had the red carpet laid before him or any other such circumstance. Tell me about the time when you lived in Anytown, USA and worked 36 hours a week at the local hotdog stand and how you got there and what it cost you. Also, please describe how you got to church on Sunday, how you stopped over at your best friend's house and how you managed to make it to the Local Elderly Fascists for Amerika rally and what the costs were.

In Philly a WEEKLY transit pass costs $18.75. Tokens and transit passes are good on buses and subways but not on commuter rail lines.

In Colorado Springs, Colorado a monthly bus pass (20 trips) WITH transfer fees to my town costs $50.00. I can give you the number of the local transit authority if you don't believe me. PM me.

Philly must have the deal of the country on laundramats. Here the laundromat charges $1.25/load /per wash and $1.00/per dry. I do 4 loads of laundry a week. I'm an uppity poor person who changes my sheets weekly and showeres every day with clean towels and a clean change of clothes. I suppose you'd be complaining about how bad I smelled if you ever happened to stand in line behind me waiting to buy your bus pass. Anyhow, my Swiss, out of control laundry standards come to $9.00/wk or $36.00/month. My estimate was for smelly non Swiss background members of the population.

OK, so I lied on cleaning supplies:

Monthly costs:

Laundry soap (on sale) 2.99 x 2 = $5.98/m
Fabric softener (on sale) 2.99
Dish soap (on sale)= .99, x 2 = $1.98
Vacumn cleaner bags (on sale) one per month = 1.99
Bleach (on sale) $1.09/gal
Pine-sol type floor mopping detergent –generic- (on sale) $2.00
Ajax type sink and bath scrubber (generic brand) =.99
Total $14.00 mas o menos
Colorado state and city sales tax 7% = .98

Sum = $14.98

I LIED EVERYONE! My cleaning supplies costs are ONLY $14.98 NOT $15.00! Can you ever possibly forgive me? And I was really, really stupid to have picked up a road flare thinking it was an old (and therefore, harmless) stick of TNT. And I'm ever so sorry I tip toed back and put it back when everybody explained to me how stupid I was. And I apologize from the bottom of my heart for EVER thinking "flippent" was my friend and telling her about the Cellar. And I am really, really sorry I ever mentioned having to be homeless, camped on the San Miguel River. And I apologize from the bottom of my heart expecting ANYONE here to understand about mild traumatic brain injury or diffuse brain injury and I'm really, really stupid. Hitler was cool and Rommel couldn't have fought his way out of a paper bag and Katrina happened only to low lifes who deserved to die.

Now.

Are you ALL happy?

Well, why the hell NOT??????????????
