Where Have All The Flowers Gone... And Why Did They Have To Take All My Money???

My unemployment has officially run dry.

This means no more safety net, no more Netflix, no more Hulu Plus, and no more internet (except through the phone.)

This isn't a tale of woe is me.

I prepaid my rent for a couple of months and have some money trickling in from a couple of freelance jobs that I've managed to find.

This is the tale of how I entertain myself with all that yummy WIFI gone from my apartment. (NOTE: All my utilities are covered by the rent.)

  • Opening the fridge to see if any non-poor college student food has magically appeared. I haven't been a college student for years. Where does this stuff keep coming from?

  • Cube Tap Jenga. The game where you plug as many electronics as you can into one outlet using cube tap adapters. You lose by either blowing a fuse or if your wall outlet can no longer support the weight of everything that is plugged in.

  • Hot Water Olympics. This consists of races between the kitchen’s and bathroom's plumbing. Events include; the race for the water to heat up, the race to run out of hot water, and individual timed events.

  • And my favorite, how long can I last in my apartment with the heat turned all the way up.

I guess this why I will never understand the person that says, "Oh, if I were to ever win the lottery I'd have to keep my job or else I would go crazy."

Maybe it helps when you are already there.
