Pesos are power

Money is power. 
I have two pesos. 
I have no power, except that to buy a pack of mints. 

And even then when you think about it, two pesos is really only $0.25USD. 

Should I exercise my power and buy the mints, or should I save the money as a form of almost not complete desolation? 

Two pesos until Tuesday. 

I also have to buy bread for our breakfast night tonight. I don't know how that is going to happen, but I have a few hours to grow some wheat, harvest it and make bread, so we'll see what happens. I also had a glimmer of hope that Manna would fall from the sky as my provision for my part in this dinner. It was a brief dash of hopeless longing for a reparation of poor planning. And the idea lingered for no more than a passing whiff of sweet pastries from the bakery two houses down. The sweet whiff that would drive any famished and hormonal person mad. 

Two pesos.
