...I may not be going this year.
Earlier on probably around April, I had a plan to save what I needed to pay for my room and get there and back (which was definitely cheaper than what my ORIGINAL plan was in the beginning of the year when I made my room reservation). But then my car broke down last week and that plan basically went out the window.
Long story short, I ended up having to miss two days of work (which if I went, would've had enough to still consider heading out there) and ended up shelling out about 280 bucks for a new fuel pump and odometer fix. The good thing about it is that they fixed the leak in my gas tank for free because they found it after I paid them. lol
So I think that this was just a little setback; that I can easily make up for the cash I had to spend at the mechanic and the money I missed out on at work those two days when I put in for my unemployment claim, right?
Wrong.
I found out Monday that my benefits expired. In order for me to still collect, I have to file another claim, which I can't do until either Friday or Saturday. Good news about that is if they approve me in time, I should have a bit over 700 bucks from four weeks of not collecting for four weeks.
If I DO go on what I'll have, then I'll need to have someone crash with
Chark and I during the duration of the Con so that I can pay for the room. But they'd have to have the money to me either Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning, since I'm supposed to check in that Wednesday. The irony of this is that I'll have the money to have been able to do everything I wanted on my own the Thursday/Friday of the Con, due to my job's week delay pay and Direct Deposit. At least I'll have enough money to get back home. lol
So yeah. Unless about 400 bucks drops in my lap in two weeks time, I'm probably not gonna go. Which sucks, because this year's theme is magic.
I like magic.
Ugh... ><
