OK, so I'm not quite broke, I have a "good" job, in that it's steady and that it pays ok... It could be better, but I guess it pays well for the level of stress and the level of work that I actually do... And it leaves me enough free time to be able to take photos after hours, which is something I definately enjoy doing...

However, having just purchased 2 tickets to the states for myself and my gf, and doing the budgeting for the rest of the trip, leaves me in the position of knowing that I can do this, but needing to make sure I keep a lid on what I spend from now until we leave.. It also puts me in an awkward position here at work, I am overdue for a salary review, my costs have definately increased, as has my workload since the last time I got a raise, however, my boss knows full well I've just paid for 2 tickets to the US and will probably try to tell me things can't be too bad if I can afford to do that...

Anyway, I don't even know where this is going... I think I said somewhere along the lines that half of the blog would probably just be me dribbling random crap... Well, here's some more to add to that rather sloppy pile...
