Mercedes is going to scrap.
Bills mounting (got paid today, and my whole check is already gone).
Can't afford to make plans for taking time off work for The Pool Party or Rainfurrest; any other cons are pretty much out of the question. Plus, work has no paid time off, or allowance for sick days (I am getting 'talked to' by management for taking 24h off in accordance with the emergency room doctor's orders after suffering heat exhaustion at work).
I'm not letting my housemates borrow my car anymore (they never refill with gas).
I'm not included in meals at home (grumble grumble).
Since the housemate that is giving me all the trouble is only playing Minecraft and looking for work; I've cancelled the minecraft server I run. NOW he can start fucking looking for work.

As for toys; I try never to part with my collection, but I'm... not seeing a whole lot of ways to reduce my debts; financial hits keep coming. If it wouldn't ruin me outright I'd sooner walk away from my house than my toys.
I feel for you. Had roommates in the past, but never lent them my car, though. We have a great public transit system here in Montreal anyway. :E
Squeak to you, dear dragon friend. ^'===='^
