Day 25: America's Got Talent. Well, sort of.

Money spent: $20
Amount in food eaten: $.15

Breakfast: English muffin with peanut butter ($0 - free from work)
Lunch: Cheese wrap ($0 - free from work)
Dinner: Tuna on crackers ($.15)

After work, I met up with Mike and my friend Julie to go to a taping of America's Got Talent.  I described the experience after we left (5 acts in) as "grape gum".  It was fun and artificial and sugary sweet, but ultimately it lost it's flavor and I realized it was probably going to someday cause some sort of cancer...  It was awesome to see Julie, and the tickets were free!

After the taping, we ate some of Mike's famous tuna and headed across the street to our friend Lindsey's birthday party.  I was proud of myself for all the money saving I've been doing, so I had a few beers and racked up a tab of $20.  It was worth it.  I had a great time.  I talked about my freegan dive with a bunch of people - not sure if they thought I was insane or not, but everyone was really interested.
