I've already claimed bankruptcy. BEFORE it was hard to do. So I'm lucky... I guess. But it isn't helping that I still feel like I'm struggling, when it should be getting better. I feel the same way a lot of times... so what, electric is late, I'll pay it next month. But it does stress me after a time. Can't be helped. Thank you though... for your comment...
mercie:
Well, funny you mention that. Actually, roomies are the problem... one already left and the other is leaving next month I believe... it looks like I may have someone for August 1st, but, so many have flaked out already I wouldn't doubt if this one did too. ("Oh I wanna move in! Just kdding, I can't.")SO I'm working on it, but that's my other gripe and worry right now too! Oh, and I can't move, because I OWN my house. I mean I CAN move, but realistically, with bankruptcy, I won't be buying another house or getting approved for renting with my credit. And NOW, I'll stop bitching...
so i'm still waiting to hear back from the school in seattle and it is driving me batty, i mean, i am leaving chicago ONE WEEK FROM TOMORROW and still don't even know where i am heading.

okay, so it appears that driving to portland will actually be something to occur on the 25th, not the 18th.
BUT THAT'S OKAY.
and actually sorta appropriate. nearly 2 years (three?) to the day that i first set fit in that wonderful city, i will be there again.
for good this time.

what IS it about portland?
so many people seem to live there. in fact, i'm convinced half the US really lives there and they're hiding it somehow.

No, but roughly five interviews per week for six weeks with nothing is pretty discouraging. I don't even get my hopes up anymore.
copillia:
Thanks dude!!
Have fun at the show.
If you wanna meet Dan, we will be at Neo on the 12th.

one of the crappiest things about moving?
having a girl you're into give you the, "i would have wanted to date you if you werent moving" line.

sweet, Portland is beautiful. I'm the perfect person to show and tell you around. Do you know where you will be moving? And when? Let me know I tell you the goods about where to live and where to hang. Yeah I grew up in Cicero for 18 yrs then moved to Ohio and I 've been here for the past 2 years. Kind of new myself but not as new as you will be when you move here. Oliv.
oliv:
I work right by Alberta, cool street but I will tell you that it gets kind of ghetto near there depends on what cross street. I hang out at a couple places on this street, it's funny because I'm here now at this coffee shop, we'll have to get together. When do you plan on moving? Are you doing the drive, it's beautiful if you go North but long. I think I went 70?????? I can't remember. I found this place out here that sells Chicago style dogs, I was so happy. It had the sport pepers and everything. So if you miss home, I'll show you that place. O.
so yeah, i think i am going to up and live in portland.
looking forward to random suicidegirl sightings.
