Hanging in the balance.
So, after I collected my mind the other night, I got in contact with my mother. I also took the time to email Trey, since I don't have his cell phone number, and he'd already headed back to Ann Arbor to stay the night with his girlfriend. It appears that my mother and Leroy(my stepfather) are willing to help me out with rent for at least a few months. Which would help Trey out with some of his money problems, long story, and not my business to post. I know part of the reason he's coming up short, is I haven't been able to pay him rent for a time, since I've been out of work. And the other person that lives here that was giving him rent money is in the same financial situation as me. Which means for some months now he's more or less been letting us stay for free, something I'm personally very greatful for. So, so far I've emailed him asking him if I were working right now, or found work within the next couple of weeks, whether it would make a difference. I've also notified him of the offer from my mother. He's at least said he's considering it, which is a good thing to hear. Haven't heard anything more than that back from him yet though.
On the other hand though, if I am still required to move. I'll probably be ending up down in Texas. Since my mother is going back down there in the first week of October, she offered to take me down there with her. I guess apparently some friend of hers is more than willing to let me use one of their spare rooms, and extra vehicle to find work, and until I can afford a decent car of my own again. Lets just say the offer sounded a bit creepy at first, considering the person is a 52 year old female who recently divorced. But once, I got more actual details, I decided it was ok, and made sense. She's a home care nurse and is out of town a lot, so it's easier to have someone ther to take care of her animals, and watch the house. Not to mention there is also the fact that apparently I could probably get a decent job at one of the computer places down there shortly after I move, which would allow me to apply some of the things I was going to school for originally.
The downside is, I'd be leaving everything and everyone I know behind. I wouldn't be able to see any of my friends any more, obviously. From what I've heard of texas, I'd also pretty much have to give up some of my gaming/fun hobbies. And I'd be about 1200 miles away from about 90% of the people I care about.
The only other thing I could come up with, would be maybe my grandmother letting me stay with her until I can get an appartment. Then I'd end up living in Durand though. Plus side is, I'd still be fairly close to my friends, and could still do things, whenever someone was willing to drive out there and pick me up. Down side is, I don't know if any of my friends would be willing to drive out there and pick me up till I can get a car to do anything. It's pretty much Way out of the way for anyone I do anything with on a regular basis. But, the area seems like it might be an easy place to find work in.
All I know is I dread having to move down to texas, for the very reasons I stated above, thats a pretty big change in life. Heh, on the funny side, my mother did say a lot of the women/girls down there like bigger guys apparently, so that might be a friendly environment to me. Graned I've also been told there a lot of women up here in michigan that like big guys too, but most of the women I've run in to don't seem to, or at least not from the way they talk about certain things.
