Indestructible.

So, apparently, when I said "I'm going to blog more often," I forgot to include "however I'm using 'often' compared to 'how long the universe has been in existence' so I can justify saying 'often' to mean 'two months.'"

What?

Anyway, my last post was the day I lost my dignity I mean pride I mean will to survive I mean car. How have things changed? More at 11:00...

(it's 11:00) I... still owe more money than I thought possible... on the bright side I am still making money, and, without having to pay (car payment + insurance + gas) I'm actually making money I can put toward paying stuff off. At this point, it appears, that I will NOT get my head above water by January (when I have to find a new place to live), but, we'll see.

I hadn't really thought about it until a couple days ago, nor realized I should think about it, um... what exactly AM I gonna do in January? None of my roommates are planning on staying in this house another year. If I don't have a car by the end of December I'm in trouble. Bill has been giving me rides to work, and I don't foresee him wanting to drive from his new apartment to wherever I happen to live just to take me to work. If.. IF... I can manage to get a car, get my checking account back, and phone back by January, and have a chunk of change on the side, I have options. I could get my own apartment here, I could move back to South Dakota, or I could move somewhere completely new and devoid of people that I know. The last option sounds intriguing. How cool would that be? Move to a new place, probably live in a hotel until I found a job/apartment, then go out and meet people and get involved in stuff... new church, etc. The obvious danger here of course, knowing me, would be the temptation to never leave my house except to go to work and play video games 24/7. If I did that, nothing would change... at least not for the better. If I did manage to... DO something... it would be awesome. I would get to, and have to, establish right from the get-go what I want my life to be like there. I guess I just like the idea of meeting new people and seeing a new area. Travel is fun. I don't want to live in the same town my whole life. I don't think I'd be terribly unhappy if I did, but I'd rather move around.

So, whilst knowing my plans could easily change in six months, I'm going to plan assuming that I'm going to move somewhere brand new. I need my money situation at least partially fixed, I need to get back into good habits (exercise, church, going out with friends and being social), and of course I need to figure out WHERE I want to live. Somewhere... somewhere not so hot. Phoenix is way too hot. I'm sick of getting blisters on my feet from the concrete at like 7:00am. It gets all the way down to about ninety degrees right before the sun comes up, and then goes back up to (infinity symbol) degrees.

Other than all that... not much else new here. Guess I'm pretty boring lately.
