Argh, me mateys! It's been a handful of days since we've gotten anything, but I do appreciate the steady flow of reblogs, thank you.
I cannot stress enough how bad this current bed situation is. This singular tiny cot came with the apartment, and it's nigh-identical to the ones in the insane asylum, barring it not being bolted down.
It is tiny. Two people fit like sardines, very uncomfortably. The blankets that came with the cot is way too small for both of us to share, meaning one of us usually gives up fighting for it during the night and just opts to freeze in this room instead. It is very unpleasant.
Both our physical and mental, not to mention emotional, health will SKYROCKET once we get our own separate beds, mattresses, blankets, pillows, sheets, etc.
We were banking on the delivery of a check that was supposed to be hand delivered to us by the transitional company meant to facilitate our relocation, and now they're literally just dodging calls and no longer even pretending to give a timeline for when to expect it.
This has screwed us over severely, since our phone/internet bill is due in like 5 days and is $200 total (first month, activation fees, prorated start, etc). We would've been able to pay that no problem, and every month after, but that relocation company refuses to answer our calls, leaving us in the lurch for the final time (since we won't ever have to interact with them again once business is concluded by providing us with that outstanding check).
That check was also what we planned to use for furniture/beds and mattresses, etc, but because they're just fucking around with us and seemingly have no intention to actually hold up their end of the transaction, we are simply ... fucked.
This is why I am asking, for what I keep saying is and what I really do intend to be, the final hurdle. We need to pay the internet/phone ($200) so that we can start off our relationship with AT&T not in the shitter and defaulting on the very first bill, and furniture. A blender. A toaster. Literally just essential stuff.
My brother recently started sending me a couple hundred a month, which is enough to take care of groceries or the phone/internet bill. However, it's taking a toll on him and he already has to provide for the rest of the family, so I don't want to be the reason he (or anyone else) goes into the red often just to help me.
We're okay on food, but that means we're at $0 now for the bills + furniture. We should be able to self-sustain once we've survived this initial/starting hurdle, and it should be smooth sailing from there on.
Please: if you can, and would like to, please consider shooting $20 our way. Even $5 helps, no matter if you think it doesn't.
If just 35 people sent $20 each, we'd be golden and solid and finally, mercifully okay. We'll be in an even better position when that check finally is given to us instead of the run around, but that plan is scuppered beyond my control.
I'm gonna have to boost this a lot, so I'm very sorry if you grow tired of me and understand if you have to unfollow/block me. I won't hold it against you.
But once we get this last fucking Rubicon crossed, it'll be back to your regularly scheduled stupidity, courtesy of yours truly!
Thank you for reading. Sorry for being needy and annoying (and self-deprecating). Please help us get this shit knocked out ASAP so I can cease this anxiety without having to take another lorazepam when I'm already like 5 weeks into benzodiazepine withdrawal š
Much love, friend (or frenemies!). ā¤ļøš§”ššššš
