The ongoing crisis

Well, still no word about that job. I went ahead and applied online at Walmart. I’ll settle for a stupid cashier job or even a dumb greeter job — I’m that sick of being jobless. You would think online application would be easier but if you ask me it’s useless, half the job postings on Careerbuilder are scams for fake “colleges” and such, and the staffing agencies and temp agencies are useless as well. I’m going nuts.

I also got a notice from my apartment complex that I owe the remainder of my lease, some fifteen-hundred bucks. So that’s nice, I also have that to worry about. I don’t care so much about me, it’s the cats. I’m not giving them up; they need a home. But I can’t very well move anywhere without a job. This whole situation is really getting to me.

I went ahead and rented out a storage unit at one of those personal storage places. I just want someplace to stash my crap (mostly books). I’m going to try to sell as much as possible of my furniture and the other things I’ve been lugging around and no longer enjoy, such as my record albums (haven’t touched them in years) and so on. When I do have to move I want to have as little as possible to have to shift. The thing is, I took one lousy box of books to the unit and then my whole body just seemed to collapse. I came home and took some ibuprofen and decided to call it quits. Tomorrow I’m going to try to move as many things as possible — these are things I’m going to keep, mostly. What I can’t sell will go to Goodwill. I’m sick of looking at so many of my things….
