It's crazy how fast life can make a change and send you in a new direction. It seems like just yesterday I was making a plan to move to Los Angeles. That would have been a mistake. I might have been happy because of who I was with, but ultimately it wouldn't be the place for me. Because Oregon is where I belong. I've moved...

So I pretty much have the rent scraped together. They don't ever cash the check until the 12th of the month, usually, so this weeks unemployment check will get me over the mark. Everything else is up in the air though. I went to the social services department today and they aren't willing to give me any assistance because I'm single and I don't have...

I can understand your frustration.
You have been paying into the system when people who never even put anything in are able to get assistance when they haven't ever put anything in.
Sending you positive vibes!

sounds shitty- hope things come around.
I just found out that the savings I thought I could access are unaccessable. Which is really, really bad considering I'm unemployed and what I am drawing in assistance isn't enough to even pay rent let alone gas and electric. I just ran down to DHS real quick and applied for Temporary Assitance for Needy Families, but basically they said because I'm single and don't...

Mother fucker.
You're supposed to be the one AHEAD of me... not behind.
If issue can't come through for you, lemme know and I'll try to shake some dollahs free for ya.

Talk to some investment guys. They're usually willing to advise for free, and they would know more about what to do. With money, there's always a way. Just watch out for taxes; they can come back and bite you hard.

There are times when I'm alone that I think, This is it. This is actually the natural state. All I need are my thoughts and my small acts of creation and my ability to go or do whatever I want to go or do. I am myself, and that is the point. Pairing is a social construct. It is by no means necessary...

While I see where you're coming from with this post, I have to say I'm with MS on this one.

Whew. Glad to hear you're just passing along tidbits. I'd say more, but I'm horrible at expressing myself. And... once again... we seem to share experiences..
So I've been working on things about myself a lot this last year. Getting my shit together and figuring out why I'm the cause of my own problems. There is one thing that hovers all over all other things.

No, not stop being nice. I am a nice guy, I always will be, and I like that;...

By "n the works" I'm going to assume you mean "in my intestines". to which I must say your sacrifice is made for the good of all and is appreciated.
I think I'm gonna stick a fork in the whole online dating thing.
It really doesn't suit me I think. It's more based on the knee-jerk reaction of appearances and as such I don't have what it takes to be popular. Oh don't get me wrong this isn't a "woe is me look how fugly I am" type of blog. I'm at peace with not...

I got bored. Unemployment is really making me productive though. In a bad way.

I've had Surly Bender, and I have vague but fond memories of it.
The Goose Island big bottles are pretty well distributed in this area, and I've had a few different ones of those. I'm definitely a fan. And so far their being bought out by Anheuser-Busch hasn't seem to have had any adverse effect.

My husband is just over 4 years into his megabeard project. He is now able to use his to not only catch food, but also store it for later. I must admit, I love furry faces 
I've been noticing a definent cycle in regards to my anxiety and it's flares. First off, I'm an avoidant type when it comes to my stressors. I avoid the triggers, push them away, and force them down. That's been my cure with nearly everything, but I'm finding it just makes it worse. I have the temporary ease, but then the anxiety builds and comes to...

I'm coming to the conclusion that the online dating world is not for folks like us.
