OK, here's the deal. In spite of the fact that I've been unemployed for more than six months, my Credit Union has just increased the limit on my maxed out credit card, enough to balance out the hit by taxes on my savings for a trip to Japan.
I'm seriously considering using this to supplement my savings and get my butt over to Japan. I'm very concerned that, once I get back into shit employment, I just won't get out again and do it. This may be the only chance I have to just put everything in storage, and take off. While I was gone the only expenses I'd have back here would be the credit card and storage payments. Of course, on my return, I'd have to get a place AND a job and that could be very painful but right now I'm just thinking... fuck it. I've always gotten the itch to wander in the spring.
Will I have the courage? Or am I just a baka for thinking of doing this? Hippie days, I had no money and lived day to day wherever I was... but I also had no debts, and was free to act on impulse.
Crap, I don't know.
