My Last Hundred Bucks: Parking, Dog Food, and Tacos

by Eric Spiegelman

$100! It is a lot of money, and yet, it is also not a lot of money at all. Where did your last hundred bucks go, Eric Spiegelman?

$7: JetBlue double feature of Sherlock Holmes: Game of Shadows and Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol (which I discovered to be basically the same movie)

$30: 3 days of short-term parking, Lot C, Burbank Airport

$59: Large bag of Dick Van Patten’s Natural Balance dog food, sweet potato and venison formula

$2: 4-foot long “Porkies” chew stick (which my dog devoured in 10 minutes):

$1: Parking meter on Figueroa, 30 minutes

$10: Cachetada, vampiro and medium cebada at Mexicali Taco & Co
