Statistics on first month of my second PHD

The first month of my second PHD (Pizza Hut Delivery) went like this:

Total money earned: $855
Total Hours: 76
Average Tip: $3.55
Money Spent on Gas: $44
Miles Driven: 370
Avg. Pay Per Hour: $11.32

So was it worth it and will I continue doing it? Considering I planned on making about an extra $200/month, yet I earned $780 with factoring in gas and wear on car-I'd say it was a big surprise and worth it. I worked 3 nights a week which did add too much stress to me and Lynn. I had a tightness in my chest from stress (but we also were closing on our house in Atlanta at the same time). I've stepped down to 2 nights a week and the stress is gone. I believe 2 nights a week is much more manageable for the next few months. We will see how next month goes. I'm also still pursuing a 2nd job that uses my brains and does not conflict with Micron's interests.

Last night was the first game of the Broncos football season and apparently a huge night for Pizza Hut as well-except I don't start working until 7pm so I missed all the extra tip action. No matter- we had a bunch of extra pizza at the end of the night so I had a brainstorm of trying to sell it at the WalMart down the street. NO problem, in 15 minutes I had sold 7 pizzas for $20. The pizzas would otherwise had been thrown away.

Also, for some reason all the musician's I'd love to see are deciding to come to Boise in the next month. Given one pick-who would you go see from the following?
The Black Crowes
The White Stripes
Stephen Stills
Smashing Pumpkins
Queensryche
Brandi Carlile
or The Beyonce Experience.
