Bike

It's interesting living with a roommate who has a "real" job; 9-5, a 401k, insurance, etc. The contrast between us financially is like a canyon, the grand freakin' canyon. It's never an issue really, it just provides some striking comparisons between the life style of people below and above the poverty line living under one roof.

He bought a bike a few days ago. It cost more than Aaron and I make in a month combined.

Just chew on that, let it roll around for a little while.

I'm not angry or anything, hell, it's a sweet bike. I suppose I am jealous, though. Not the angry, intense jealousy, but more of that sighing, wistful jealousy "ahhh....look at that....how cool is that?"
You know.
