Post Weekend Wrap Up

The long weekend went by as usual and I feel like nothing has been resolved in my life. I have to move in like 22 days and have no idea where. Both of my prospects have fallen through. I looked on Craigslist today and everything seems a bit sketchy or out of my range. Ideally, I want to live somewhere month to month, have utilities included, not to have to put down a deposit and live with only one person or alone. I met a girl this weekend who is house sitting here for a few months rent free! That's what I need. I wish some rich person would come up to me and be like, "I'm going to Europe for a while. Wanna stay in my nice abode for free and keep a watch on everything?" Hell, yeah. I'd save so much money. Rent is my biggest expense every month. Oh well. At least I still have more time than I have had in the past to find a place. Hopefully something will work out and if not, I'm used to being homeless. Maybe I could write a book about it. Or maybe I'll be an eternal couch surfer.

This weekend I went to a lot of parties. It started with Thursday night when I went to a friend's rooftop party. Fireworks were going off all over the city. We had a panoramic view and everything. Saturday I went to another party at a different friend's. They have this amazing old willow tree in their yard that someone built a tree house platform in. People kept climbing the tree but I knew better: drinking plus climbing equals brain bleeding. Saturday my friend had a little bbq and that probably was the best party of the weekend. There was only eight of us total, four sets of couples actually. Maybe it was better because I knew everyone and we all just sat around on the lawn eating, drinking and listening to music, so it was rather chill. I like observing couples, especially in different stages. Couples body language differ from being together forever to have just started seeing each other. It's interesting. I wanted to go to Michigan on Sunday, but that just didn't happen. I really want to go up there and explore the beaches. I need to go somewhere. I hate not being able to travel. I wish gas prices wouldn't be holding me prisoner.

So, I have a lot on my plate right now. I have to move and I need to delve into writing assignments and start pitching ideas and I have social activities, etc. We're supposed to play another Saucony game tonight. I hope it rains so we can just play drinking games in the bar. I hate whiffleball. Tomorrow night I might DJ for the first time, which will be cool. I'm all for trying new things and going new places. More than anything right now, I need money. Money will solve a lot of my problems. Even if I have to temp for a couple of months, I should be okay. I'm signing up with another temp agency this week. I just wish those checks would come faster. This is what I get for not wanting to be "normal."
