blah
this driving is really getting to me. it’s been a month, and i’m ready to be done already. not only that, but it’s pretty much draining the bank account. it helps that gas prices are slowly going down, but it has to go down a lot to make a noticeable difference in the amount of money i’m spending driving between austin and rochester and then up to st cloud on the weekends. come on st. joseph!! do your buried upside down thing!!
it’s getting to the point where it almost makes as much financial sense to find a cheapo place in rochester. i wouldn’t mind doing that, but nate goes back and forth. every day he takes on a different view on that one. i think it would depend on how much the rent would be. i don’t know. can i just whine a little bit? i’m missing my summertime because of this. i like the job, but i want to be settled. yucko. on top of that, everyone in austin seems to think it would be ideal for us to live in austin; nate can work at walmart in austin and i can commute to R and back. that makes NO sense. i could see if there were no walmart in rochester, but there is. and the rent difference between the two towns does not make up for driving 90 miles a day. plus it’s a dumpy town.
to top it off, i feel like i should be offering to pay rent soon to kathleen and george. aahhh. i wonder if should put my student loans on forebearance until we figure this crap out. that’s a lot of rolled over interest though. hmmm.
