So I guess I'm still planning to stop living with my parents and run off somewhere. I've got $380 and some stuff I could sell. Videogames stuff. There's also my digital camera, though I still intend to get a whole lotta use out of it just as soon as I become pretty (annnyyy day now). I don't really have anything else of value. Maybe some DVDs have resale value.
Boston's still the main choice, just because I've got a friend there. I probably shouldn't rule out the rest of the continental U.S., though. I don't know how badly she wants me to be living near her since her boyfriend doesn't like me and I cause drama for her. Don't get me wrong, we're really strong friends (as evidenced by the fact that we've managed to stay friends for so long). I just don't want to make things worse for her just because I'm lost right now and am likely to become very needy if given someone to latch onto.
I pretty much retreated to the internet when college life first became a problem for me, so of course I have an online friend I consider to be pretty good. She'd be cool with me meeting up with her at the University of Montana and maybe sleeping in her dorm until I can set myself up with a place to live. Naturally, the closest we've come to each other is through the phone so there isn't a 100% chance that she won't be creeped out by the complete me, but I guess being alone in Montana isn't too different from being alone anywhere.
I've also considered putting up a topic on SG, but I don't think anyone'd be extra open to welcoming me into roommatehood just because we like the same porn. The big problem, I suppose, is that I'm hoping (waiting?) to find a place where I'd feel wanted. So it can't be any old place... I'll probably have to deprioritize that if I hope to make this thing really happen.
If I'm going to sneak off, I need to be somewhere by Aug.20th or so.

Advice for moving: craigslist is an amazing resource (I found my house and both roommates with it) and go with Ebay to sell your wares.
I'm sure you know what Ebay is?
