Moving (?)
I have a problem:
I've finally found a one bedroom apartment that is within walking distance of my work (in fact, it's only a block away). It's tiny, but in a great location and it would be all mine - I wouldn't have to share a damn thing.
But, with this new job and the wage decrease I took for it, my savings have dwindled. And shrunk. And pretty much disappeared. (Ugh, I have the worse financial sense EVER and I am so angry with myself about it). So, while I'll be able to afford the monthly rent, I'm not going to be able to afford the moving costs- security deposit, the cost to move the utilities to a new location, plus rent on the new place as well as this place for the first month.
So here's the issue: I really really REALLY need to move out. The Moomie drives me crazy, even though he's not doing anything. Just the sheer fact that he's in the apartment irritates me to no end. I'm afraid I'm going to light him on fire while he's sleeping because I can hear him dreaming and SWEET LORD I HATE HIM SO MUCH. But I would have to ask my parents for the money to move out, which would be admitting to them how irresponsible I've been with my money.
So it boils down to the ultimate question: what is worse, losing your pride or possibly murdering your roommate?
