Being Poor is EXCITING!

I just realized today how EXCITING it is being poor.Today, I needed to get some food that was not pasta and I only had $10 in my pocket. I am definitely sick of the ramen. So I hit the big Y, and I got a big box of Captain Crunch ($2.50), a half-gallon of whole milk ($2.19), a loaf of whole wheat bread ($1.19), and 3 dozen eggs that were on sale buy 1 get 2 FREE(3 for $1.49!) for a total of $7.37. I guestimate that I should be able to get over 20 meals out of this windfall. Omelettes, french toast, boiled eggs, and good 'ol cereal - great stuff. As I made my way out of the supermarket, I was filled with a strange, twisted form elation. Being poor really is EXCITING. I haven't had NO MONEY in a long, long time - and it's FUN! Yep, that's the word, fun. Wow, I am not even sure if I am being sarcastic...probably, but not entirely sure.
