#rent stuff

sup y’all. Seth, your friendly neighborhood queer/trans/disabled/autistic dude here. good news is, my surgery went well! I have a HUGE weight off my chest, both metaphorically and physically! bad news is, I’m running pretty low on foodstuffs again. I got some cereal, which you can see back there in that photo, and I got some fruit snacks, but that’s about it. ALSO...well.

HUD is also asking for a whole lot more funds from us this next month. last month they wanted $200 more, and this month they’re raising it even more, for some reason. we’re trying to figure out what the frick is going on there, but they’re asking for us to pay $600 a month, and considering we were already struggling to feed ourselves before they asked for the $200 more, things are going to be....bad.

all of the bad aside, I am absolutely having a great week. abusive ex-stepdad who gave me PTSD from a WHOLE LOT of terrible shit as a teen died, I’m feeling more dudely than I have in forever, and damn if I’ll let any of that mess make me feel any less excited about that shit.

am gonna do the e-begging thing again, though, since food is getting short and we’re gonna be having a hell of a time to get rent together. the tone of this post is all over the place, but that’s because I’m on some serious heavy pain meds and my brain is all over the place. any amount to go towards rent, if indicated, will get sent to my roomie who has the account for that. anything else is liable to get put towards food delivery, since even when I’m not fresh out of surgery, I can’t make the walk to the store, and we don’t have a vehicle.

I got a few links if anybody can help out. paypal with my deadname, and an Amazon wishlist with food I can use now that I’m like...y’know. sorta mobile again. kindasorta. ain’t fun to get around, but I’ll do it, y’know? also my post-surgery wishlist, which I’ll be cleaning up a bit after I post this. I super appreciate the folks who got stuff for me off that earlier, the wedge pillow and lap desk are SUPER helpful and have made my first 24 hours home WAY easier than they would have been otherwise. and a preemptive thank you to anybody who shares this or gets anything off of those. I super appreciate any and every reblog, every share, every dollar dropped in my lap, every snack or drink or small thing off my wishlists.

I found this reasonably priced house (like almost within my own budget) and it was such a cute old style with nooks and details that I like.

But the more I looked at the house, it seemed familiar, and then it hit me. It’s a friend of mine’s from high school. I guess his mom is moving out finally. His parents are divorced and I’m preeeetty sure she had a serious boyfriend, so its possible that she’s moving in with him.

If I could afford this house, I would totally get it. Its up the street from the house my Nana and Papa raised (practically) four generations in, and my other friend since daycare lives on this street. It’s close to downtown but still a neighborhood, so I’m guaranteed adorable trick-or-treaters every Halloween.
