Talk Soup

I get really frustrated with my spending habits, especially when it comes to eating out. I can have a full belly on any given evening, but if a buddy calls me up and says, "Let's go to dinner," then I just seem to forget about the condition of my belly and end up going anyway. True, I don't have to actually eat, but who wants to go to a restaurant and just sit there and feel like a cheap skate? Not me. I need to find the will power to say "no" or maybe postpone the dinner for another evening, but for some reason, that never comes to mind when the thrill of social interaction comes into play.
