I hate money so much

I just looked at my bank account, and I had a strong urge to vomit. Now admittedly, it's the first week of the month, when everything comes due and bank accounts just hemorrhage money, but this is completely beyond. I have to really, finally, come to terms with the fact that I am beyond horrible with money and do something about it. I've been lucky the last few years to have had a ridiculously large income, but that's no longer the case. I spend far too much on... everything. Eating out, random purchases I don't need, 'treats' that I rationalize far too readily, just everything. I need to sit down tonight and make out a hard-core budget, and then --here's the clincher -- stick to it. There is absolutely no way this can go on. This month may already be shot, but savings can fill in the gaps there. Can't keep doing that for three years, though...
