Eh

I just got done helping my sister & cousin move. We got the big stuff moved, the couch, the beds, etc., so now all they got is the entertainment center, the kitchen table , Sis's computer table and a lot of boxes. Pretty sure they should have it done by the start of the weekend, seeing how my cousin's and my parents are down there helping.

Maybe I Should Have Waited a Month

One more month and it would have been a full year between posts.

I'm going to try to post more often, and shit. Shitting good. But not at the same time. Partly cause its gross, but partly cause I don't have a laptop, notebook, or the Jesus Phone. But let me get back on track.

Awesome Girlfriend and I are still together, but it has been a rocky road the last few months. Let me go back to August-September. Awesome Girlfriend (eh, I just like the sound of it, and I'm sure she would) and I decided that in the coming February, I would move with her into St Louis. This did happen, but not in February. On November 8th, I was terminated from my job of five years at Gerbe's/Dillions. Since it didn't make much since to get a job, then turning around and quit to move to St Louis, AG and I decided to move early. I started my new job at Ladue Pharmacy, LLC on December 7th. I went from making $12.35, to $11.50 an hour.

Let me talk about the new apartment a bit. Its a nice place, large living room, separate dinning room, one bedroom and a good size kitchen. Some how, before we got the place, while we were calling to get an idea about the utillies, we were told that the gas bill would be about $60 per month on average. Our 1st bill was $255. The 2nd was $319. And the latest was $288. Now, all of these do include a $50 deposit that gets added for the first four months. So we are looking at $205, $269, and $238. Those are still much higher than the $60 we where thinking. So this caused some financial problems, as you could imagine.

At this point in the game, we are looking for someone to sublease from us as we are going to be moving to KC. AG has an internship there and they are paying for her housing. So we thought it would be cool not to have any bills at all. So we got that going.

A week or so ago, AG found out that parents are splitting. We knew that this was going to happen sooner or later, but it doesn't make it any easier. That added more stress. All while having to study for her upcoming Exam in June.

And to top it all off, that job at Ladue, yeah, I got let go from that. Didn't fit in. It's fine, I didn't like the job much anyway. Way to much of a factory than a pharmacy. So, now I'm jobless, and now the money situation is worse than before.

Then it hit me. I can't continue like this anymore. I Have To Go Back To School. Its been bugging me for the last few years that I never finished my Degree at LSTC. So thats what I'm going to do. That and post on here more.
