so there i was, pacing my tiny kitchen, clutching a grocery receipt like it held the secrets to life. had to call in an “emergency” day off because i couldn’t face anyone while hiding the fact that my fridge was literally EMPTY except for a single moldy avocado. my friends think i’m on this health kick but really, it’s because the idea of explaining my bank balance makes my stomach churn. so when ...
