My Morning Manifesto

Getting late into the month and what was once a cycle of the moon, now artificially means its time to dispense with my money for my needs. My roof requires a certain amount of money, for my vehicle which takes me to work so I can earn the money which allows me to pay for my vehicle. Well, I earn a little bit more which allows to pay for my cell phone which is simply needed this day and age and for my car insurance which by federal law is required to allow me to drive, so I can earn money so I can pay for health insurance incase something terrible happens I’ll be able to pay only a small amount of money and doctors can treat me and heal me and keep me healthy so I can continue earning money to pay them. That is what comes at the end of each month. And of course I take out a little bit for my fun money. So I can drink alcohol and laugh with my friends or a take a cute girl out for coffee or if I really like her perhaps even dinner, but then of course in this day and age she’ll often pay her own way, which I don’t mind, in fact I like it like that, not because I’m cheap, but because she’s her own person, doesn’t want to be treated like a blonde trophy to be place in my bedroom. I am a feminist. That’s my fun money, and I also put money aside for quarterly payments to my government, and even though I didn’t vote for most of the people that claim to represent me, I still feel it is good and right to give them approximately a quarter of what people pay me for my services, so that they can provide me with good roads, and good schools for my children when I have them and a ton of other things like spreading freedom and democracy and torturing enemy combatants and bombing villages that house terrorist training camps because we don’t want our planes hitting our own buildings. And that is what the end of the month means, and perhaps I’ll save up just a little bit of money for a new laptop, a better one than the one I am currently using so I can play music, and surf the web and send pictures to my friends, pictures of myself drinking alcohol and laughing and I can even write creatively on this new computer. Or, if I may be do bold, perhaps I’ll take a trip across an ocean, to another continent and see some sights. Meet some people that have a totally different perspective on the world and heck even speak another language, but luckily they speak English too. That is what I’d do if I had enough money left over after paying for all these services that I’m so grateful to do as I am a citizen and a human being.
