What I will reward myself with
« on: October 18, 2014, 04:33:52 am »
For anyone who cares what I've been up to I recently got a new job after randomly quitting my old job. I went one month without work and it was literally the most sad and depressing time of my life, even worst than when I got kicked out this past summer. I don't know what I was thinking when I quit my job, I think my mind had just had enough of everything.
Anywho, I should be getting paid this upcoming week from this new job which pays a dollar more than the last one. After paying my rent, paying some expenses and getting myself a used futon, I think I should have about $50 left. I know there is not much I can do with that amount of money but I'm thinking of just buying a dub sac, possibly more if I decide to skip out on the futon or find something cheaper.

I feel like my life is finally starting to come together, it's a slow process but it's better than where I was not too long ago. I feel like I finally have a home/family after a few years of just feeling so alone... and I do not want to fuck up again. Honestly I can thank weed for helping me realize how much I needed to change in my life. I would get high and realize how many things I could change in my life to make it better, and I did. It's literally my medicine.

 Well considering your current situation, there is nothing wrong with getting by on the cheap.. I've found life on the cheap to be more satisfying anyways. Depending your locale, you might be able to find a futon at a Goodwill near you and save some extra money.. they usually have random slightly used furniture being brought in daily.. also not a bad way to pick up nice clothes, barely worn, for a fraction of the price (also I get all my books from there.. I've even flipped a few rare/expensive ones). Even with a really shitty paying job, you can furnish yourself with a pretty comfortable set-up if you can snag the right deals. If you use tobacco products of any kind, sign up online and they will send you free coupons.. every little bit helps if your buying a pack a day.. thats even if you smoke tobacco.

 Do you roll joints or smoke bowls? I used to think I rationed weed better when I smoked bowls, but honestly.. I'd end up smoking 2 or 3. If I roll a joint, it's usually a .4 and I actually make out better.. and I can always throw the roach into a stash for later or hit it in a bowl.

 Try to develop some cheap hobby that you can make profitable in your spare time.. all the material you need are at goodwill for art projects if your creative at all.. making money online can be a challenge unless you are really familiar on the direction your taking.. Good vibes man, hope things keep goin well for ya.

Regarding futons and money in general: www.auctionzip.com

It's been a side job for me for... 7 years now. You can find sweet deals on stuff, and resell a lot of it. You'll find some cool shit too. I've gotten whole truckloads of shit for $50 before. It was stacked so high the tires looked flat, half of it fell off on the way home, and I still had a goddamned truckload of shit to sell when I got home. Tax free too.

If that doesn't work out I will continue searching on Craigslist. What I am the most worried about though is the risk of bed bugs. How likely would it be to get them from used furniture? I usually smoke out of a bowl. I was just talking to one of the assistant managers at my job and he told me he puts hash oil in his e cig. It sounds like a much more convenient and affordable method of smoking, especially if  I am trying to to smoke on the down low such as on a break.

I've been wanting to pick up some new hobbies. I've recently started gaining interest in writing rhymes/rap whatever you want to call it. I
d like to purchase a mic just to fuck around and record some shit. I don't consider myself a lyrical genius but if you've listened to modern day rap/hip hop anything can go these days.... just look at Migos. I have two high school friends who are really into free styling and writing songs and I've been trying to convince them to post things on Youtube but they don't want to. Maybe when I can afford some equipment I will be able to convince them to record some shit and get it posted.
