Things are very...tense tonight.
It's bad enough our whole day was spent writing up resume's we didn't want to write because we know they're completely useless back home. But no one seems to believe what a flaming shithole Warren is and that we simply CAN'T commute to Cleveland on a daily basis and the chances of us getting jobs even remotely near each other with even remotely the same hours is IMPOSSIBLE. But Matt's parents don't seem to believe this. It might be easier to find a job here, where you've had good schooling and plenty of opprotunities to enrich yourself, but in Warren, you're the bottom of the barrel. And you just have to deal with that until you can concoct a way out of the damnable place.
And then his mom points out that 'as much as we love having Alanna and TJ here, they're going to have to go home sooner or later'. Wow, thanks for being completely insensitive to our plight. Because we have no money to get home with and the people at home OBVIOUSLY DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK. Thanks, everyone. And it's not like the fucking Hag would send us money. I've even dropped hints, but she's just changed the subject or finished the conversation and hung up.
I was feeling okay about being stuck here for the time being, but now I feel like I'm a burden and I'm just taking up space and shit. Things are perfectly fine when it's just the three of us, but when we're all at the house it's just waiting until something is said to piss someone off, it seems.
I just feel uncomfortable now. And I'm sure, by the end of the night, I'm going to be patcing things up between Matt and TJ because they're being stubborn about something or another.

'Cause I like TJ, I still am fascinated by and interested in you, and I'm willing to help the two of you - because you're two of five people I give a damn about.
Mmmkay?

And independent is good. Being overly stubborn is pointless.

And Western Union would give you the shaft and it would take twice the amount of cash to do it that way because of the fees. :P And, honestly, those are the only two quick money-sending ways I know of.
