moving. Too bad it's not to Switzerland.
2002-05-14-10:10 a.m.

I started actually putting things in boxes last night. Kinda odd and sad, but very exciting. I took a few pictures of my room, because as odd as it seems now since I've been living in it for 10 years, someday it will only be a hazy memory.

I wish I had gotten off my ass and finished my fucking mural. My brother will probably paint over it since he's moving into my room.

The thing is, other than my dad I've always gotten along with my family really well, and we still get along great even though we rarely get together anymore, we all just sorta pass through the house at completely different times of the day. I'm only moving like 20 minutes away though so it's no big deal, and I can still come over and raid the fridge if I need to.

Lately though, it's pointless to even go into our kitchen because there isn't shit to eat, my mom has 4 dollars in her checking account until the child support check comes, and I really don't have the money right now to bail her out because I already gave her rent for this month and I'm paying Rodney starting this month too so I'm paying at two places, plus I have to buy a lot of shit because my dresser and entertainment center won't fit in the new room. And as long as Kyle has whatever he needs I really don't care, because she has enough money to buy plenty of groceries if she'd just quit being so lazy and try to put together some kind of budget.

Speaking of budget, I just re-did mine and I'll be fine, I'm only going to be spending about 100 bucks a month more for the new place, plus I just had my evaluation for my raise this morning and I got the maximum they can give me, which isn't as much as I'd like, but it sure won't hurt. Once I get settled in the new place and get all my shit in order I'll be scouting out jobs. The central location will mean I can work anywhere from south houston to Galveston and still have only a 30 minute commute. Bling Bling indeed.

There are so many benefits associated with this move, if I can just manage to make it to next month without spending too much money I'll be set.

Lindsay will be accompanying me to Ikea tomorrow after work so that I can buy all kinds of cool swedish storage things.

Oh the Swedes, they gave us that knife, the biking team, cough drops, punk bands, and swedish porn, but inexpensive cool looking housewares? It's almost too much.
