Been a Bit Shit...
I don't know what it is but for the last few weeks I haven't felt right... In fact a bit shit pretty much sums it up... I've been hiding from the world, which really isn't like me, I've been procrastinating more than usual and I've sort of developed an intense disinterest (bordering on dislike) of pretty much everything...
I don't know what's brought it on, probably money worries... I've become massively aware in the last few weeks exactly how buggered I am financially... I've managed to set up a new deal with the water board that'll drop my payments down to a reasonable £48 per month, but I still owe the council nearly £600 for last years council tax and I'm going to be paying £50 per month for this years, So thats going to work out at around £100 per month to pay off both... Rent hasn't changed so thats still £225 a month... Sooooooo... Thats £423 per month in bills I have to pay... I get £484 a month in benefits... Leaving me about £60 for food and travel and booze... My phone is £35 a month so drop that down to £25 a month for food, travel and booze...
So I know what you are thinking... Better get a job... But thats a joke... I've been applying for jobs all over town for 2 years now, in that time I've been invited in for 3 interviews and thats it... So what other options do I have... Well I could basically give G and Emma the ultimatum I've been holding off on using "Either Emma starts paying her share of the bills or I'm leaving"... But I'd feel like a massive tool for doing it... However I look at my financial situation and I think it's something I'll have to do when they get back from holiday.
