The Expense Report

Everyone has bills to pay. This is nothing unique or a plea for sympathy. A couple of Saturdays back, one of the neighbor's German Shepherds decided that my twenty-nine pound dog, who was in our fenced yard, was a chew toy. More than $200 in vet expenses later, my little "Bru" is starting to put weight on his front paw again. Now, we have another bill coming to repair our Toyota. All these new and unanticipated charges with a pregnant wife having a four figure medical deductible, and thousands of dollars in expense to make our condo baby-ready. Add in a traffic ticket I did not deserve, and you realize just how fast you blow through your earnings. I think it is time to sell some plasma . . .
