Day...uhhh....

A picture of me in Meade, Kansas with the motel owner's cat who came to visit our room.

I've been sitting at home for, probably over a week now. I'd really like for that guy offering me a job to have a spare moment. I'm sure he will soon, he does need a new assistant eventually after all. I suppose I shouldn't be impatient, most people with my age and talents (or lack there of) get job offers this good. But since quitting my money-eating career as a commission only pre-sales consultant, I have had nothing to do. More money in the bank, but nothing to do. Honestly I'd rather spend my days of precious year 21 sitting in the basement then showing up for work to not get paid. At least sitting at home is my choice. Drive down to Colorado Springs every week and not get paid for it? No thanks, my time is a little bit more valuable than that.  

Anyway, I am tired of being at home and just want to move on to the next stage of things already. My time is a little bit too valuable to sit in the basement, my choice or not (and thank goodness it is a choice!!), but I have nothing to do. Barely any friends at all, actually, I have 1 (that I can actually see). And I am eternally grateful to have her (Naruto hating or not... though the fact that she does voictrously hate Naruto is a little bit soul crushing every time I hear it....). But more people would be nice. Where do you find people if you don't go to school? Craigslist? That's kind of pathetic and... dangerous and weird.

Anyway, I don't know how many days it's been since I haven't had a job. Luckily, it is not troublesome to not have a job still living at home. I just ate dinner for free and didn't even have to cook, but as lovely as that is I would like to get on with moving out and life in general. I think moving to Meade, Kansas would be a good thing. Something has always felt wrong with the consumer life style, but up until I found Mr. Money Mustache, a blogger who lives right here in Colorado, I thought that the only way to escape would be to live on an island. Turns out, you escape the system by using it differently than everyone else. Meade, Kansas is a tiny, flat town with giant roads perfect for never, ever using a car. I'm hoping there is a farmers market because the produce in the tiny little grocery store did not look or smell good... like, at all.... other than that, though, it is away from giant shopping malls and starbucks. As much as I love those things, they are not healthy for many different reasons and their addiction I wish to break. Because honestly, I have a lot of beautiful cloths now, I won't be needing any more for years to come.
