Hey, we’re rich! Yeah, we got $225 for the X-box, we have the room paid for till Sunday, we have a full tank of gas, and we even have $80 on our cash card! This truly is like being rich when you consider how bad off we’ve been so far. I even have a MasterCard coming from Netwinner with $50 of credit on it. They just came out with their own reloadable debit cards, so this is what I’ll use from now on, rather than go and redeem my points for gift cards for certain stores. I hope that and the $100 Walmart card gets here fast. I’ll be using the $50 to get incense. I just wish I could accumulate points as fast as I did in Oregon! But with this shitty connection and with the constant crashing and whatever evil has been hell-bent on holding us back, it’s been going so slow. I’m down to 235 points now.

Tom went to storage today and pulled a lot of his computer stuff and tools to start selling off.

We also got the charcoal briquettes and duct tape just in case. Just because we’re doing okay right this minute doesn’t mean we’re officially out of the woods for good. Whatever’s cursing us with our security seems to like to do so about once a week, so until and if we ever do end up in a place, which probably won’t be anytime this year, I wanted to be prepared to escape life on the streets if this thing really ever did decide for sure to have us run out of money. If they let Tom go at work or if the truck crapped out completely, we’d be fucked. And so the last thing I wanted to do was risk running out of money to the point that we couldn’t even afford to kill ourselves to save us from starving in the streets. Maybe if whatever source of evil it is that’s been after us knows we’re armed with “ammunition” against it, it’ll back off and go pick on someone else. We agreed to do whatever it is we’re going to do together. If we’re going to live, we’re going to both live together. If we’re going to end it all, we’re going out together. We would both certainly prefer to get by in life and be happy instead. Sure, the more money the merrier, but right now we’d gladly settle for just getting by in a modest house and having a reliable car, too.

It’ll be so nice to finally have my stuff again someday if we make it. Seeing my dolls again will be like seeing old friends!

I still miss my big soft cuddly fuzzy buddy.
