Well, guess who just barely avoided being homeless--thanks to the help of a good friend (who shall remain nameless) and a little bit of luck. I will be a five or 7 minute walk from my place of employment, about 4 or5 blocks from the centre of downtown. Bit of a dump, but not too bad, really, for the location and the money. I was told I could paint it myself, if I was so inclined, which I might do, someday. And I can keep three of my cats--so not total devistation there.
Won't go into anything else, as that's for my other blog. Just thought certain readers would want to know.
I still won't be blogging for a bit, as of Sunday...will take some time to restore phone and internet service, after the expenses of the move. And I'm required to have renter's insurance, so that's a bit extra I hadn't planned on.
Load of other hurdles in front of me...but one step at a time, I guess. At least I'm feeling a bit better...not 100 percent, but...better. Tired tho' and head and stomach still ache a bit.
Anyway, I was rather enjoying posting threads on the Doctor Who Online site...then the rugrats came along. There's some really terriffic young people on the site...smart and nice kids...but suddenly, there's been some total brats turning up, with their moronic text speak and their bad attitues and exceedingly rude behaviour. Well, no more posts for me. Oh, I will respond to my friends posts..and interesting posts by regulars...but really fed up with rugrats intruding into my posts, "yelling" and calling me names and telling me what I can or cannot say...I don't need that nonsense. Not with all this other heavy stuff to deal with. Uh-uh. Under normal circumstance, I'd probably just ignore the little brats, but my circumstances are far from normal..and it just upsets me much more than it usually ever would. Shame, but nothing I can do, but stop posting so often. I'll be damned if I'm going to allow myself to be abused by some little tyke in a foreign coutry thousands of miles away--and most of these kids are at school, while doing it!
It's too bad. I really like that site..but as long as the guys that run it, give free rein to the ASBO kids, nuts to that, I say. There's other sites I enjoy, like the Teaspoon site and the BBC site is sort of okay, as well.
So, tired tonight. Was going to watch something Dr. Who related, like maybe DW Confidential...but just too exhaused. Too tired to even bother eating. Just want a hot bath and my warm quilt to snuggle under.

Glad you won't be homeless - good news
It may be a dump but you can make it your place - so much better than moving into a pristine apartment where you feel you can't touch anything and it'll never be home.
You take care - there's a long way to go but the first rung has been reached.
