End. Of. Rope.

If you're one of the people who actually thinks I'm making all this crap up and have absconded with the dough, why don't you call Jacobs Realty, Landmark Bank or any of places I've had to call home for the past near six months?

Oh yes - apparently U-Haul sold off the contents of our storage shed. It wasn't supposed to be until today. I was trying to arrange the bucks to stop it, but they apparently sold it all on Thursday. Oh my God.. my life work was in that shed (my music collection). My clothes, all our stuff. It's all gone. I literally now have nothing except the clothes on my back and what's in the car.

Wages, still climbing out from under the mountain of crap that accumulated while the block was on the account. The apartment fell through because she hadn't bothered to tell us we couldn't move in until June, for pity's sake. That's a heck of a detail to leave out.

Oh, for fuck's sake. This is not what he needs to hear. And if we're playing that game, I'm also a long time friend.

Last year, there was work being done on our house, so my family and I stayed in a forty dollar a night motel. Dirt cheap. It had free internet. Cheaper hotels are downright scary.

There's free internet at McDonald's now. The idea that he should go without a connection to the world because you think it's too extravagant is ridiculous.

Your situation is not his situation.

He's working his ass off to find a way out. Sometimes, there is no way out. When I was homeless in 2002, there was no way out for *months*. No matter what we did. Sometimes, the world is a shit sandwich and that's the end of it.

Lots of things are impossible. When you're poor in America, impossible is the word of the day. Someone remaining homeless does not equate to that person wanting to be homeless or throwing cash around. Especially in the current economy.

Clay, babe. I am *NOT* saying give up. I'm saying that I know you're doing your level best. I also know that one day, things will turn around. This can't be forever. You'll get out of this.

I love you.
