I'm gonna be dropping close to $1000 over the next couple of days.
Welp.
THING ONE: I'm gonna be taking a trip from Maryland to Washington state in a little over a month. This is to attend my little sister's graduation from college. In order to make this trip, I need to pay for my half of the travel expenses, which is pushing over nine-hundred dollars even in its planning stage. This, in addition to the various other monthly payments (which I just recently got down to under four different payments!), is going to result in a credit balance that is higher than I've ever seen. I'm not looking forward to it.
THING TWO: My search for a full-time job up in this bipolar state has been very frustrating. Of the eight-or-so applications I make per week at minimum, I've only gotten calls on two since the year began. Not only that, but those two were below what I need: full-time.
THING THREE: I've sworn off any major distractions until I'm able to land such a job. Those distractions include games and game-making, since both of those can dominate an afternoon without effort.
SUMMARY: My need for money has made me boring bored SCARED exhausted.
Does anyone want to hire me? I'm good at...two things, at least! I can make lunch for five people! I can tell decent innuendos! I can eat a whole pizza in four hours! See? THREE things!
No but seriously screw this job search Maryland has disappointed me in so many ways why does every basic job I see require twenty years of experience in some other advanced field but only want high-school graduates this doesn't make sense screw this noise.
Ugh. I'm gonna go transfer a thousand bucks so I can make this damn trip. I swear, my sister's achievements have cost me so much money in the last few years. I love her, but jesus horse she should slow down until I sell a book or something. I'm pretty sure all the money I owe has just been so I can visit her or the rest of the family.

P.S.: I'm still plugging away at FMP, Humility, and Switcharootaloo. All three have some progress. Switch will probably be the next update, but FMP is being worked on at this moment. That is all.
