- I’ve got the fat one.
- Why does your butt always smell so much?
- Which one of you keeps barfing on the floor?
- Stay still! I’m trying to furminate you!
- Oh, they’re fighting again.
- It’s just a piece of paper. Why do you play with that all the time? You’re so stupid.
- Meow!
- Here’s your dinner. Eat up, fatties!
- I cleaned it, so poop away! I know you like pooping in clean litter.
- Get off the table!
- All you do is lick everything.
- Eat that bug! Eat it!
- That’s human food! It’s not for you.

Katie and I are headed to a friend’s wedding on the east coast in just a few days.
It’s been almost three years since our wedding now (really? It certainly hasn’t felt like three years) and I just want to take a moment to stop and say that there’s been no better decision I’ve made in my life so far than to tether myself forever to Katie.
As co-dependent and needy as it sounds, I wouldn’t know what to do without her and I would definitely not be the same person I am today. I love her and she makes me really happy.
That’s all.
What else is there, really? Everything else is just the frosting.
I don’t know what to do with receipts.
I feel like I need to keep them for various purposes, like taxes or financial proof or just money tracking.
But they pile up in random places around the house, overwhelming and useless. Katie abhors them because of they’re a mess. I look upon them with increasing dread as I come home each day and drop a few more onto the already immense pile.
Yet, at gas stations, I’ll always press YES when the pump asks if I want a receipt. I haven’t yet learned to let go. I need that little piece of paper that tells me: don’t worry – I’ll keep track of exactly how much money you’ve spent.
The truth is that I don’t need that little piece of paper. All of my credit card transactions that I get receipts for are but a few clicks away on the Internet. Moreover, I download all of my transactions from my credit card’s site into Quicken, so I have a local copy as well.
Do I really need to hold on to that receipt during the short amount of time between when I make my purchase and it appears in my Quicken register?
For large purchases, the answer is still obviously yes, if primarily for warranty and return purposes. But for a $3 hamburger or $5 book, the answer should probably start being no.
It’s a risky business, but I think it’s a step I’m ready to take.
That’s why this FasTrak commercial I saw yesterday on TV is great.
