I used to talk about fandom in this livejournal

Weird, right? Maybe I will again, some day. (Leverage! Bones! Supernatural - still! I really am watching television, you guys, and reading fic about it! I swear!)

IN THE MEANTIME, it's nice to have a community of smart ladies to ask practical questions of! Hey ladies, here's one:

Do you use/know of a financial tracking tool where you record all your expenditures and it helps you manage your budget and also examine the way you're spending money? Because I could really use both of those things! I went through my finances recently and it turns out I've been spending HEAPS more money than I thought I was! What an unpleasant surprise.

So basically I'm turning over a new leaf, and recording everything I spend in a little moleskine notebook is only charming for so long.

Word. I use a Google Docs spreadsheet to keep my checkbook balanced, too, but I don't track my types of expenses (yet). That will probably be phase two of my financial planning makeover, which I'll start once I've managed to get a two to four month rent buffer in my savings account.
