Countdown: 5 days to homelessness

Still waiting to hear from a few places and more open-houses to go, but sheesh. I'm just feeling really pessimistic right now.

I actually have more time now that I am back in school than these past few weeks of summer. Working at the Art Camp provided a series of child-related horror stories though, including the highlights; getting punched in the spine by a 7 year-old, having to hold hands with a compulsive nose-picker, telling a 9 year-old to drop the "yucky" little ( Read more... )

But it is a great way to travel around and bring your bed and packing with you to your various ( Read more... )

I have a reeeeally bad cold. Its origin is a very disturbing story. Yesterday it was bright and sunny and we went to Liseberg, the amusement park here in Göteborg, and ran around with Peter's nieces and sister. Well one of them was being pushed around in a baby cariage, that is. Anyway, there are lots of little booths where you put your money ( Read more... )
