My Financial Accountability: Day 3

Today...was more difficult than the past two days. But because I have awesome friends (and, apparently, a suddenly raging social life) who tend to foot the bill for booze when the spirit moves them, I spent roughly $57 less than I would have if I were going it solo.

And here we go:

Newbie to NYC's Spending Journal for Mid-April (cont.)
