I dont know if any of you guys remember me saying that I might have to move back to Maryland in September if I didnt find a place to live.
Im an optimist, and I always try to look on the bright side.. but the truth is, there is nothing good for me in Maryland.
Yes, I have friends there, but.. its toxic for me to be living there again.

Anyway, my uncle had a vacant apartment to rent, and I'd been meaning to talk to him about possibly staying there. It had been empty for months, and he doesnt really need the money. I couldnt afford the $900 a month, but Id pay him whatever I could. We would work something out. I could do chores or whatever else.
So I procrastinated, because thats what I do. But I finally got up the courage to call him.

Side note: I absolutely HATE asking people for help. I always feel like such a burden and inconvenience to other people when I need something from them. Yet I'll be the first to help anybody who needs it. Which is why it took me so long to ask him.

And I digress.. I finally called him and he told me, he was sorry but somebody had moved in there 2 weeks ago.


Fuck fuck fuck. So here I am on the verge of tears, and then he says the magic word.. "But..."

But what?! Is there hope?

"But.. you know I have an extra room in my apartment, and youre more than welcome to stay in it. You dont have to pay me a nickel."

So, all you Jersey folks, come September I will be living in Bloomfield, 2 blocks away from the Nevada diner.
Lets play.
