Phantasmix Stock Blog

I enjoy Thicken My Wallet’s reports on how to save money at the supermarket. Not so much for the savings tips, but for the amusement factor: I don’t buy a single brand/item he lists! I’ve come across several other blogs that talk about saving money at the store and this is pretty much the common theme – I just can’t relate. I’m an admitted semi-elitist food addict (occasional Doritos or Reese’s happen, that’s why “semi”).

Overall I’m pretty bored with money right now:

- stocks are not moving. Suppose I should be grateful they’re not down more than they are. I keep dreaming about numbers and charts and crazy breakouts, *must*take*a*break. It’s like computer games all over again (overplayed them at one time, started dreaming in Tetris and Super Mario. Yeah a long time ago.)

- it’s warm outside and makes me want to spend money, not save it. But in winter it’s so miserable I want to spend it, too. It’s a year-long affliction.

- I’ve only sent 4 invoices this month (typically it’s 8-12). One client keeps begging for an invoice – time to get worried about my lazy invoicing habits?!

- Again – warm out, too lazy to make graphs. Those are usually amusing when the weather is ugly.

Hope y’all are enjoying the summer!
