i don't know what to do

[bertine]

i want to go to texas with my sister when she testifies at the trial but doing so makes me miss two weekends of work at 'nards and a week at dtg. that is about 500 dollars. i really can't afford that since that is about a third of what i make in a month and i just got back on track and christmas was this month. should i go and just say fuck it to my bills or should i not go and miss out on this whole thing (and seeing my buddies in Joplin?).

I think it is time to get a regular job that has work for me.

dude, you're so going corporate. you love it. you want to have, like, ten thousand of its babies.

yeah, i think i will go, it just hurts to think about not making any money for that period of time. hopefully i'll get a good tax return.

corporate is ok. :P it pays well, i get insurace (i haven't been to the doctor in over a year) and i would be able to afford my lavish lifestyle.

Can you work extra at 'nards before the weekend? That's what I do at my night gig, but I don't know how your schedule works out...

Or work the corner the weekend before? That might make up for a bit if you can drum up enough bidness.

i might be able to work more at 'nards, the only problem is that i make an extra 2.50 on the weekends which means i have to work 42 hours to make up for the 36 i'll be missing.

and it is jan, a slow time of the year even on the corner.

we'll see how this interview goes. i'll get a bunch of hours if it looks like i won't be getting this job, though i am perfect for it

Blood is thicker than paper.
Be there to support Serinia.

and thank you for the cool Christmas card ^__^)

good point but my condo is pretty important to me and i would rather not lose it.

serinia is good, all us holmboes are good i guess.

I must have missed something, what is all this testifying about?

oh, serinia was assulted when she was in the army and she must testify against the guy. TWO YEARS LATER.
