just pennies

so here i am, turned down from yet another job, about to go to the store, because the cupboards are getting emptier and emptier.

per the grocery store's daily special, i'm getting prego sauce for 99 cents, a bag of boneless skinless chicken breasts for 3.99, lettuce for 38 cents, & the other essentials; a carton of eggs, half a gallon of milk, and some mozzerella cheese. so if i'm lucky i can keep it under $10.oo.

and with me i'm bringing empty soda cans and a jar of pennies to exchange for cash in their "coinstar" machine. and i'm hoping & praying i can get what i need with just pennies.
