Now, am getting ready to go have a drink with the friend who lost his mother last week.

Plan on having *1* beer...and that is all.

On the jobs tomorrow..no idea what salary would be for one of them...the other, I'd be making less than I was at my former job.

*eh* A job is a job, right?

Fortunately, the other sounds better...both, from what the woman was saying about the job, and the salary.

Decision gets made at the end of this month on whether i can afford to keep the Apt. or not...or if I move in with friends.

Powerful word, that one...and makes me moreso blessed to have the ones I do...who are willing to offer a part of their home to, as the old Looney Tunes cartoons would say "A fellow American who's down on his luck". Yeah, had to work a quote in there somewhere. But, on a serious note, have two offers of places to live...Friends, and with parents again, since sister has her new home.

Scared to death of moving back in with parents. I'd have to look for a job closer to there, and amongst memories, and the concerns of falling back into the pattern of being trapped there, I'm quite fearful of that.

Friends would be easier, as it'd be closer to where I'd work, but still, no income boy means I'd be leeching off of them, not something I really want to consider, either..no more than I already feel like I'm leeching.

Expense check from the Texas Trip should come in next week..that'll be a nice little boost..not much, but enough to straggle..

And, need to think on X-mas for family. With my sister having the new home, and me being unemployed, she and I are going in together again this year...but, the price of gifts both of us are getting for others is once again lessened.

Be much easier if I could channel the creative energy to come up with some neat "home-made" gift ideas...already planning on cookie treats to go with family stuff...

Yeah, random musings. Fortunately, LJ is even better than your TV...if you don't like what someone is saying, you don't have to read. Lord knows, I've done that a few times.

Ya know, just in case anyone is reading and getting pissed at me for posting pessimistic leanings, or worries, or concerns, or anything like that. I know of several who don't care, but I also know that I have a few random lurkers out there. Hell, I think Soundrigger still posts anonymously (When will that slacker ever get a LiveJournal??), but, this hedges the bets with anonymous posters. And friends? Well, if they're friended here, they should have half a clue on how unemployment musings, and life suckages, plays havoc with how the brain operates.

I've long stated, this state of mind will LIKELY get better once I find a job. Now the question is, will that happen before or after I lose my Apt? The next to last vestige of being independent...

Ah well, more musings after I get back.

If you have a job and are living with friends for no/low rent while you get back on your feet, I don't think you're bound to keep mooching for them. The place to stay is just injecting good karma into the world -- you're committed to Pay it Forward someday. And you'll be making money, so you won't have to mooch for stuff other than lodging. Unless you're talking about really crap money.

ah, the fun.

Hell, if you can post "pessimistic leanings, or worries, or concerns, or anything like that" what fun is a live journal.
