* As I began my MBA classes, I shelled out about $250 for textbooks.
* Food expenditures seem to be on the rise, totally about $450 this month.
* Looking forward to big bonus in February, probably enough to wipe out CC3 and part of CC1. Also, the federal tax refund would help as well.

Regarding your comment, ahhh, now that "diamond shamrock" charge on my credit card bill makes sense. I was pretty surprised when all the Mobils started changing names to Valero; I thought Mobil was this gigantic company, but I also admit to not knowing about the gasoline/oil business.
