Mom got brain and lymph node cancer, gma died (83), got kicked out the house in less than a week, had to takeover full car lease/insurance payments (can't really afford $440), had to throw away my bed, dresser, desks, computers, and other large furniture, forced to put my stuff into 180$ storage for 2 months, had to rent another uhaul and pay friend of dad to store in their shed for a while, been staying with friend/gf who has a kid and shitty friends, she's also addicted to weed and has issues, got a peritonsillar abcess went to ER, doc was young dumb fuck misdiagnosed me, went back 2 days later worse, still didn't do shit, after a week of not eating and not working, I went to another hospital, doc agreed with my self diagnosis called ENT immediately to lance it, pus fell out a day later, foulest bloody pus diarrhea I ever tasted for about 30 minutes of loogies (I have no insurance). Maxed out my overnight passes at the complex she lives at, so I started parking across the street, the problem though is I got a permit/SS ticket for 110$ and another permit ticket for 47$. Power went out from lack of pay for a couple of days, been without internet since early august (have shitty phone but that's nearly useless. At library now), Cat had lump on his neck and had been puking a lot, so paid $184 for that bloodwork (he's fine, could be allergies or something).


On the plus side, I finally was approved to drive for Uber and got cellphone internet56k (after like 5 months of whatever they were/n't doing), I spent $500+ driving 'gf' and her kid to Illinois, which was sorta worth it for me since I've never done anything like that or left the west coast. She has another kid there that is older and lives with her mom, (one of her friends I met there who was cool died the other day in a fiery car wreck), 'gf' has been behind on rent and bills since her tweeker sister left her with the full rent payments ($1300+) or whatever, so her landlord (which is luckily her friend) offered her some sort of payment plan, but she and I have to move out by the 16th or something, I don't really want to move in with her as I never really wanted to in the first place, the relationship was all sort of rushed and not bad, but not what I want or need. I found a 10$ gift card on the ground earlier today.

On the neutral side, we had 2 cats had kittens, one 4 the other 6, then neighbors found a stray kitten outside and couldnt find the mom, so they adopted it well. They were cute and fun for a few weeks, but we already had too many adult cats, we found a good home for them with a lady and her gma on CL. We gave them all funny names: striper black toe, Gandalf the Grey, Gollum, Orangey Face guy, Stupid Orangey Face guy, Other Orangey Face guy, (aka Conan Obrien 1,2,3), Gecko, Mini Tink (mom cat is calico named tink), Tink without ink, forgot the 10th, and then we named the other Eleven.

PS- Holy shit is everything cheaper everywhere else in the states outside of CA.

Also sorry for shitty run on sentence bullshit, library has limited time so I just dropped it all off. I could elaborate more on some things as well, and was planning to write a whole blog on the tonsillitis (since it's a recurring thing for me). I'll post that up eventually.

Rough situation.
Regardless of what happens,
I hope you have fun.
A build is not a guess, an estimation or a hunch, a feeling, or a foolish intuition. A build is a dependable, unwavering, unarguably accurate, portrayer of your ambition.

Where in CA?

But yeah man, life is definitely a lot cheaper here than in other states..depending on where you live in CA it can be WAY worse... like San Francisco, or even inside LA or Orange County..yikes.

So you are going to be driving for Uber for your job? what were you doing before?

Found a place and moved in last sunday. Over my budget with the car lease payments, insurance,gas but its chill and my cat is allowed. with utilities its like 825$ a month but I had to pay 700$ deposit which sucks.

I've got bank to cover November, but not sure if I'll be able to afford car insurance and all that for the following month.

Driving for uber is decent money, but it kills my mileage on the lease. its like 25 miles an hour and in 4 hours (aka 100 miles you don't make that much).

I keep logs of my delivery job and uber was gonna do a IAMA on reddit about it.
