Bad Planning


Ashleigh and Amber scanned a stack of letters that Dad sent home to his parents while he was at college.  He often gave a report on his finances.  This one from his freshman year stood out to me.  It seems to be from the beginning of the year.  I thought it was really funny because he had such a good sense of humor about it.  He was very detailed and commented on everything he bought during the month.  This month was funny because he said, "I spent an excess of $36.  This is quite ridiculous and shows bad planning....I assure I have repented of this and put down a strict budget for November."  I also love that he mentions spending money on dates, one of which included tickets to see Saturday's Warrior.  I can't quite make out what he highlights after detailing the date, but it almost looks like the word atrocious.  If so, I wonder if that is describing the date or Saturday's Warrior.
