I have a weakness. ._.
But, on the sunny side, I've got a lot of books and music coming my way, and a couple of other fun things.

Susan and I have both talked to Mary (the manager at Starbucks). Mary's really excited about having me on board, apparently, after everything she and Susan talked about. o _o;

I'm just excited about $7 an hour and health benefits, even if I work parttime. o _o;
Before taxes and all, if I worked as much as I did at Party City, I'd be getting about $700 a month. o __o
Which would mean car and my own house faster.

Not hired yet, but, Mary said that in a couple of weeks they'll be hiring again and I should check in around then, and label my application "SUSAN LIKES ME". xd

I've seriously started moving off the path of apartment.
I'm thinkin' more like a trailer, because they include more things in the rent (water, electricity, garbage, and other fun things). After that, there'd just really be gas, food, cellphone and intranet.
That and they're a good bit cheaper than apartments. o_O;

Over the last year, apartment prices for the area of Atlanta went from (bottom of the barrel) $215 a month with most utilities included to $450 a month with only sewage included. >_o;

Kim and Chris are getting a brand new, three bedroom, double wide for $800 a month, with almost all of their utilities included.
It's a BEAST.
Bigger kitchen than what they had before, bigger, living room, biggerbigger, except the rooms are smaller, but the kids don't really play in their ginormous rooms now anyways. xp
It's a LOT bigger than the one we had when we were growing up. x__x;;

I just want a single wide trailer with a maximum of two bedrooms (because they don't really get much smaller than that. o _o).
Kim's gonna ask for me how much the smallest trailer is per month to the neighborhood their moving to.

I'm gonna get this job first.
Then pay off my car.
Then move to the new place.

And live.
