My Last Hundred Bucks: Parking, Dog Food, and Tacos
$100! It is a lot of money, and yet, it is also not a lot of money at all. Where did your last hundred bucks go, Eric Spiegelman?
$7: JetBlue double feature of Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows and Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (which I discovered to be basically the same movie)
$30: 3 days of short-term parking, Lot C, Burbank Airport
$59: Large bag of Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance dog food, sweet potato and venison formula
$2: 4-foot long “Porkies” chew stick (which my dog devoured in 10 minutes):
$1: Parking meter on Figueroa, 30 minutes
$10: Cachetada, vampiro and medium cebada at Mexicali Taco & Co

A buck more would’ve got you a fried egg on top of that cachetada, which would’ve been both financially prudent (I think?) and delicious.
i made an account just to say how happy i am that you feed your dog natural balance. down with the mainstream pet food industry!
Aw, I used to get Natural Balance (the small bags though), but now the protein isn’t high enough for my pooch (He is all, “30% or more or I walk!” He is spoiled).
