I had a proud moment tonight. Roommate L walks through the door proclaiming, “I’m going to follow in your footsteps and become poverexic! I realized today how easy it is to skip dinner and save $10 a night. I ate a big lunch today at 3pm and I’m not hungry at all!”
I was a proud mama! I am SO happy for you L! You will soon learn that you will save SO much money by skipping one or more meals a day. I was determined to convert all the rest of my friends, one friend at a time. Next target is other roommate G.

L: I caved.
me: What?
L: I caved. I couldn’t do it. I ordered some scallion pancakes.
me: L … I am so disappointed in you.
L: I know… 😦
me: Can I have some when it comes.
