Have you ever been so happy you wanted to cry?
So, earlier this week I was put in the worst of situations. My landlord said that he was going to file the papers needed to evict me of I couldn't guarantee him that I was moving out by the end of the month. The place I want to move into only had one apartment left and was most likely to be gone by the end of the week. The only way to secure it was to come up with $400 by Wed. (Living on the edge sucks.) I asked two people for help, one couldn't because she is living as close to the edge as I am, but I am already doing a little project for her so I will be getting money from her anyway later. I asked another friend and she just flat out refused. My last option was to ask the guy who got me my job. I already had asked him to lend me $20 so I could get back and forth to this job for the week. He ended up giving me $200. That alone was so..Unbelievable and unbelievable in kindness. so, I went to him and asked, begged for the $$$ that I needed. He was kind enough to agree. The universe is shining on me. However, there is a dark side to all of this. It has made me painfully aware of where I stand with some of my friends. Recently, my kindness has sometimes been met with nothing less then total disrespect. I feel the knives that penetrate my back. I understand that there are a lot of my friends that are just getting by. But even those I know who are living on the edge have given me support in other ways. It is not always about money. Sometimes it's just about getting a little mental support.
I am happy through all of this because I know that what I need to do will be done. and overall this has been one of the best weeks of my life. But there is so much left to do. I still need about $1400 to move in. Which, right now, is going to be an easily obtained goal. I will even have a little $$$ left over to hire movers, hopefully, and even go out to Neo for a few occasions like BatCave night but for the most part I will have to keep a low profile. I have grand plans for future occasions, I am thinking that for Thanksgiving I will travel back to Philly to see the Irwin's and a few friends. I will give more details on these plans as the date approaches.
Right now, I am trying to organize my various address books; Outlook, AOL, MSN, Gmail and such. That will be a long process, but if anyone out there wants to help me by giving me thier most recent info, it will help a lot. I also have to clean the apartment and such, because Haderlein is going to start listing it on Monday. And finally, I have about 250 surveys left to complete for Lisa. so I guess I need to get crackin'
