Asking people for money without an official gofundme? Never gonna happen. EVER.
Which is fine as a problematic ID snafu happened with Don's license. He renewed it and of course did not go down in person to ensure its immediacy--nope, he did it online much to my annoyance, but that is what he did. UHAUL isn't gonna take an expired license and the homeless thievery I have not yet remedied because I had no idea where I would be living, so registering THAT address was never gonna happen. That one is cut from my general awareness I hope...eventually. So we get to rent the truck after next payday which means that we get to eat, and not on $20. So--there was my solution and why Speedy Cash can go to hell as well as all of you. I AM KIDDING.
Luckily my money responsibility has taken on new urgency. It's been years since I paid a ridiculous rent--like almost 7 and when I did I had others in charge of bigger things--like I was the roommate or girlfriend who just paid in. Now I am with the world's least moneyed human, Don, meaning he is not involved with it and given the ...
I still harbor a little resentment with the ruining of Christmas...it only seems weird if people ask what we got. Wanna know what I got? AN INSTANT POT for Black Friday I bought for us both. That was what we got aside from the things my mother always sends us. The past 5 years we have had a small pile of stuff from my mother, usually a few gift cards, some Christmas stuff and that's usually our tradition. Don said...you have all my money, when could I hide any from you?
And he's right...when or how could he ever hide money when I know every dollar we have. Unfortunately this move left us a little short and after getting mini loans from the piggy--I promised him the last time was the LAST time. So this time when I realized we wouldn't have food for a few weeks I decided, on Christmas day no less, to apply for a payday loan.
Payday loans are not what you might assume. I figured, fuck it, I need a hundred bucks, hell, two hundred would be golden. For a $200 loan you will pay approximately $342. Think I am joking, oh hell no. LOOK AT THIS:
Advance ...
You'd think I would learn my will has better ends than many things. The only thing it hasn't done is made us overnight wealthy, but it's one of the things nobody can ever really say about me. Nobody can say I am not clever or persistent or lazy when I get my eyes on something. So my eyes scanned hundreds of ads trying to find a place for us. HUNDREDS. The problems ranged from the dog to price to location, and you better believe if someone wants close to $1100 from me for a closet I was going to find something way bigger which this building could only aspire to be. And so we did and it solves several problems one encounters while trying to live--the dog run is close, the laundry is closer and there's not a ton of stairs to ascend so there ya go. We got a thousand square feet, over double this place and cut Don's commute in half.
So we won, ultimately, one battle in the war this life is leaving me fighting. I don't see it as winning against them, because I still see a huge loss in still all this action. I got in ...
