| If you have sardines and Star Wars, today is a good day. |
Today was an excellent day for receiving mail! My aunt sent me a letter (which contains such juicy tidbits like, "Here's a list of homemade food you can't eat."), Amazon delivered the BCAAs and CJ's butter I ordered and my unit sent me a big care package. At first I thought, "They sent me printer paper. We already have that here." Then I said, "No, no Mr. Sarcasm, it's just a box the paper came in." The picture above summarizes what I was sent nicely: sardines, nuts and Star Wars. They also sent pretzels, Fig Newtons, beef jerky and a chocolate Cliff Bar, but my backpack was stuffed with the above. Anyway, thanks to anyone who already sent me a package or letter and more specifically, if you are my aunt, work at Amazon (but only if you actually touched the things I ordered) and if you contributed to my care package above.
Through some investing blog reading, I found this guy. I have not yet seen him trying to sell anything from his blog, so don't think he's a huckster, hustler or charlatan. His message is clear: you don't have to spend all your money on things that fill up a garage. If you can, use a bike rather than a car; if you buy a car, buy it smartly. And grow a mustache. I don't agree with all of the advice he gives, but I like his idea of a Costco membership and using the library a lot instead of buying books. Certainly over here it's easy to use the library (surprisingly good selection out here. I feel like I said that in another post...worth repeating.), both for borrowing and donating.
Rest day today, so tomorrow it will be squats-overhead press-deadlift.
Dinner involved a pile of meat, some butter and brussel sprouts.
