Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

Today, I'm running so fucking low on money, I have to go to the supermarket to eat free bites of ham, cheese and whatever they have on their aisles for breakfast. FML

Today, I'm so broke after paying my bills, that I resorted to eating plain garlic butter from the pizzeria down the street for lunch. The worst part: to get the butter, I stormed in and angrily complained, saying they forgot to give it to me. I never even ordered a pizza. FML

Today, I'm so poor that I've been scrounging around my house all day trying to find quarters and dimes so that I can buy myself a cup of coffee tomorrow. FML

Burgers? In this economy?
Today, I was hungry and I was trying to buy the cheapest burger at Wendy's, but I'm so broke that I had to call my friends to lend me some money. Ugh. FML

Today, I was so broke and hungry that I went to Olive Garden and faked being stood up, just so I could eat their breadsticks. FML

Today, I made a sandwich. When I went to grab chips, my wife snatched it. I made a second sandwich. My son came in and stole the plate when I was grabbing a seltzer. I went to make a third sandwich. No more cold cuts. FML

Today, I'm so broke that I had to get a refund for my unopened hummus, just so I'd be able to afford the bus fare to get to work tomorrow. FML

Sounds… lovely?
Today, by being clumsy when putting my bread slices on a plate, I invented a sensational new type of sandwich: The Nutella-Salmon-Garlic Double-Decker. FML

Ah yes, I like having that too. Gives me my daily dose of calories.

Should've added that pickle you're in to the sandwich.

I use to have just a piece of toast for breakfast when in a rush. It's about the same thing.

Been there. I used to throw two slices of bread into a ziplock bag (which I would reuse as many times as I could before the zipper would deteriorate) and some cheap chips into another for lunch, and eat very discreetly, to try to keep coworkers from seeing that I was too broke to have anything in the sandwich. Those were hard times. It does get better, though. With a lot of hard work and determination, you can turn things around. I can go grab sushi for lunch on a whim, these days. If I was able to claw my way up, anynody can. If you were close, I'd buy you lunch. Hust believe in yourself, work hard, and kick ass--you'll get there!

I know the feeling, but my go to is cream cheese on toast instead.

Or fried bread. Put it in a skillet with melted butter in there, and finish with salt and pepper.

Sadly, I know how that feels. :( I hope your situation improves soon, OP.
