So, we're leaving this place.

Al came over and said the water company won't turn it back on without the $130 AND AND AND the electric is due to be shut off by the 22nd. Which, really, would leave us homeless. We can't go back to the apartment, the landlady ythere doesn't want us there. We have too much shit to impose on any local friends and my mom lives too far out in the country for it to be worth going to work every day.

We're driving to South Dakota to crash with Squeeji. Really, in essence, cutting out the middleman in us moving with her in a few months anyhow.

I know this probably seems irresponsible to some people. That's fine. But right now? Anywhere is better than here. Being homeless in another city is better than staying in this toxic envoirnment. But when I'm stuck in a shitty situation, I'm not going to sit around and let it beat me up. I'm going to remove myself from it. I'd rather face the unknown possibilities than stay in the shitty situation we're in now.

I'll probably be around the rest of the week, but not likely much longer. I have to get my shit in order here. Let work know what's going on. Get the shit we're not taking over to the apartment. Rehome the kittens. Rehome the rabbit. Possibly rehome the littlest girl rats we took in.

It's a lot. But I can't bring myself to put up with this anymore. I actually THREW UP today from a combination of the stress (and maybe that Wendy's I had earlier...). I still feel sick and gross and when it gets THAT BAD, it's time to ditch this place.

Upside, it's not like I haven't loaded up the car before!

Is there anyone local who might want a rabbit? Or two young, friendly girl rats? Or two kittens? I called the local shelter about the kittens, but I'm on a waiting list, so I don't know how long that'll take...

In short: UGH.
