saving a fortune

So I ate breakfast at home, and I brought a lunch today. I should do this all the time in order to eat healthy and save money, but I am pretty darned lazy and I so I don't know if I will be able to repeat this process again tomorrow.
The breakfast was leftover Vietnamese soup, or Pho as it is also known, and the lunch was generously donated by a friend and is leftover Butter Chicken.
Maybe I just need to organize all my friends so that they all make me lunches and take turns each day.
I just wont get my vegan or veggie friends to help out, cause I can't stand tofu!

I haven't blogged for awhile, but I am sure there is tons to talk about.
I bought Fallout 3 for the PC, and it is amazing. It is so immersive that I have played 3 hours straight without even realizing it on more than one occasion.
It is a First (or third) person RPG. It takes place in a post apocalyptic world that has survived a nuclear war (barely).
They have old and new weapons that can be used, plus they have mutant people and animals to fight. Their is also an underlining theme that sort of feels like it comes from the 50's, but it provides humor and additional atmosphere to the game. If you have ever played Bioshock it is similar to that.

I gave blood last Wednesday. It was fun, but I was really worried I would pass out due to lack of sleep. Unfortunately they are very good at scamming you into signing up for future sessions, so I have a date with the Canadian blood services in January and March :)

I saw the movie "Role Models" with Seann William Scott, Paul Rudd, and Christopher Mintz- Plasse (thanks IMDB). It is a movie about two guys who get into trouble with the law and have to spend 150 hours mentoring kids as part of their community service. It was pretty funny all around. I would definately recoomend seeing it. Something about little kids swearing makes me laugh :) plus there is a great deal of humor in the world of live action roleplaying which is fun to watch.
As a RPGer, I do think it's a little too geeky for even me.

I spent an hour at Marlborough mall on Sunday looking at all the different Cell phones. I need one, but I don't know which one to get and whom to get it from. I haven't owned a cell phone in 7+ years, and I don't know exactly what I will really use it for.
I was just blown away at the amount of stores and kiosks that that mall had.
I still need to browse the providers web sites again to compare them and see which one has the best prices for the service I might utilize.
I should just blow a wad of dough on the iPhone and get it over with, but I really don't want too for some reason. Maybe it's the hype around it, I tend to have an aversion to jumping on the bandwagon :)
