omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg omg.
seriously, what did I do to diserve this miserable existence?!?! I like to think I'm a pretty reasonable human being, and that I don't deserve all of this insanity.
we're being kicked out of our apartment, effective oct. 1st. we haven't even fully moved in yet, due to the leaks/mold/everything falling apart. my bedroom doesn't even have a ceiling anymore!!!!!! and, to top it off, they only want to give us half of our money back despite the deplorable living conditions.
to top it off, my old roommate skipped town for 2 weeks and she owes me money from bills from our last apartment. I notified her multiple times and she kept saying she'd drop if off at work, but she didn't. now those bills are going to be late.
oscar is losing his hair due to the stress of the move. I took him to the vet and the bill came to roughly $145. I only made $190 last week after taxes, and I had to pay the vet bill up-front. I didn't even have any food!! I spent my last $30 today at trader joe's. I get paid tomorrow, but I have to pay all of the bills from my last apt. in full since Christina didn't give me her half, and there goes my paycheck.
we need to move by wednesday and if we don't get all of our money back, I can't afford another down payment. and even though oscar is on antibiotics due to his skin condition, he has an upper respiratory infection now (probably due to the mold in the basement) and I can't afford to take him to the vet. I broke down in tears today in front of my roommate because I'm so worried about him.
I really just want to die right now.

ugh. I really don't know what to do these days.
this is my last week of school before my 2 week summer break. I have a lot of work left to do until then, and hopefully I pass all of my classes. this has been an extremely stressful quarter.
I moved into my apartment on the 1st and I'm still living by myself (well, oscar is here too obviously). my roommate's bedroom keeps flooding through the ceiling every time it rains, and so does our basement. they keep trying to fix it but nothing is working. it's annoying because we still have boxes everywhere because we can't unpack a lot of things. we were hoping to have had a house warming party by now, but it keeps getting pushed back farther. at least we haven't paid rent yet!
it's hard to believe that after living here for 2+ years, I still find myself miserable, and alone. I feel like giving up.

ahhh!!! I'm moving in 4 days. I'm so so so nervous!! things have been going not so great lately and I've been worrying a lot more than I should over things.
last night I went to raven with Meredith and Bridget and we actually had a really good time. Steve was there, and he invited me to bob and barbara's on friday and I'll probably end up going.
tomorrow morning I have a doctor's appointment then work. I've worked everyday in a row since friday, and I don't have a day off until sunday which is when I move (that makes 9 days in a row!!). the payroll department at my work screwed things up last week so I never got paid, and I'm stressing over that, too.
as you can see, I have no life. goodnight.

heqwhfiowhefoi!
today was my first day off in FOREVER. I decided to break out of the oatmeal rut and make vegan chocolate chip pancakes. oscar agreed-- they were fabulous.
I also got my laundry done and a little grocery shopping, so I'm pretty set! I've been eating crap lately because I don't want to go and buy a ton of food when I'm moving in a couple of weeks.
speaking of moving, I'm so ridiculously excited!! I've already started packing things that I won't need in the next couple of weeks to get the ball rolling. my parents mighttt be coming up with my dad's pickup truck to help us move. if they can't, we have to rely on Craig.
my boss is on vacation for the next couple of weeks so I'm the acting manager while she's gone. I'm worried about tomorrow because I have to make sure I get all the monday paperwork done, like payroll and schedules and have everything sent to our DM on time. and at 4 o'clock I have to sit in on the weekly conference call. ughh.

today we went to look at yet another apartment, and it was pretty much a "no" as soon as I walked in. I slept in and was running late for the appointment, so janice and jackie had already had a peek. just no. the landlord was sort of sketch, too.
so far we're leaning toward the place on 15th and christian; it has everything I'm looking for, but I think it's a little small and overpriced for the location (1350 sq. ft. and it's $1600). it also doesn't have any outdoor space, like a deck or even a back patio.
we have one more on the list to look at, and from the photos it also looks promising. I'm hoping to know by the end of the week where my new apartment is!!!
other than that... I've been very conscious of what I've been eating and cut down drinking to 1-2 times a week, and have only lost 2 pounds. that, along with this ongoing apartment search AND working like crazy, is really stressing me out. I snapped on my boss yesterday for the first time...
in other news, I have an appointment tomorrow morning for a new/second job!! depending on how much this place will offer me, I may have to leave origins. we'll see!

so we didn't get the apartment on 18th and catharine. it's a total bummer because that place was PERFECT. I was already planning our house-warming party in my head... ugh. I did some craigslist searching and I found 4 apartments I'm going to try to check out this week. I don't mind staying in south philly, as long as I'm close to public transportation, but janice wants to live walking distance from work so that limits the options. I found a great sounding place on broad and wolf but I know she won't want to live there. anyway, at 3 today I'm going to check out a place on 21st and catharine, so it's in the same vicinity as the other place! and it's $100 cheaper haha. ugh this is so frustrating.
other than that, today is my day off from work but I have to stay home until 2 because we have an exterminator coming over sometime between now and 2. we definitely have ants, possibly roaches, and most likely termites. christina and I DEEP CLEANED the other day... I mean we moved all of the furniture out into the hallway so we could clean the floors and everything and we still have these problems. I need to move!!
