Ok, so I finally got clear as to why I didn't get paid. Despite being told several times that I would get paid on the third friday I worked, what my inbred, dumbass, can't-understand-basic-english boss meant was that I would get paid on the friday after my third pay period was over. So I get a check this friday. Of course, rent s past due, and will be even further past due when I get paid, and it won't be near enough to meet rent, and that's not even counting daily expenses (gas, groceries, electric, etc.). I hate admitting that I have a problem financially, but I seriously do. Oh well, I talked with the landlord, and they're semi-cool with me being late on rent (read: no eviction notice yet).Plus, we finally got on food stamps, and Mo should be getting on to Medi-whatever/Peachcare as soon as EJ and I get a statement from our employers saying we don't make shit, and are below the poverty level.
Let it be known, before anyone (I doubt anyone whjo reads this *would*, but who knows) starts bitching about welfare. I HATE being on welfare. We could have been getting food stamps and such for several years now, but we managed to scrape by, and I didn't want to do it. I have no choice right now. And as soon as I can, I want to stop being on welfare (or whatever).
The search for a new job continues, and hell, I'm even looking at getting a second job. That hurts almost as much as being on welfare. Still, we shall be fine... eventually. It's the eventually that's killing me.
Other than all that, life is peachy >.<
