Things are expensive.

I continue to settle in here and have had the pleasure of listening to NPR.  Things in East Lansing are a bit more expensive than I had hoped — maybe I screwed up a little.  I decided to get a cell phone instead of a land line, but I actually have to pay like $43 a month for it.  I also have to get my own Internet service, which might be like $35.  I was thinking what with making like $1,300 a month I’d be living like a king, but what with my rent and these expenses, maybe I can’t.

    Try a tracfone if you don’t talk a lot on the phone very cheap. And in a college town there should be lots of free wireless. We are borrowing from a neighbor right now :)

    Cell phones are out of control these days, the prices only get higher and higher. We are on a family plan with my mother. That is the cheapest alternative. 3 or 4 people get together and split the expenses. We pay about $20 a month for 2 lines that way.

    I hope you enjoy the packages you will be recieving in the mail!

    I got it yesterday! I was so perplexed when I saw it at first! Then when I saw your names I remembered! I’ll try to cook it this weekend.

    Your other package will be in the mail tommorow. I was waiting on something to ship it, and I couldn’t wait because of the apples.

    I think you will enjoy this much more though :)
