		<description>Mom - if you&#039;re really interested, I&#039;m using the spreadsheet provided by Presh Talwalkar of &lt;a href=&quot;http://mindyourdecisions.com/blog/2009/01/05/a-free-spreadsheet-to-track-your-expenses-in-2009/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Mind Your Decisions&lt;/a&gt;. But you should be filling out the (much simpler) spreadsheet I made for you last November... :-&#124;</description>

		<description>Aaron - wow...no way could I use that thing. Sick in an hour or two is more like it. Ha ha. I prefer the boring receipts into spreadsheet model of enforcing my goal.

Alex - I can only try my hardest. So I will. And I&#039;ll restart as much as necessary to get me through to the end. The goal isn&#039;t perfection - it&#039;s a heightened awareness of the state of my personal finance, spending habits, and areas I can tweak for optimization.</description>

		<description>&quot;I will record every single financial transaction I make this year.&quot;

I&#039;ve tried it.  A few times.  It went great for about 3 weeks at the longest.  I hope you have more perseverance in it than I did!

My 2009 resolution is to become a more likable person.  If I fail at that, I hope to at least become a more lickable person.

It&#039;s kind of a cute idea, but I know I&#039;d get sick of it in a week or so.
