Meanwhile, back at the umbrella factory.
Last May, my landlord raised the rent by $50. On the first of this year, they raised it $85. In September, they’re going to raise it another $50.
I’m deeply tired of renting.
It’s not like it’s a fancy apartment. The only real amenities are that we can hang out in the apartment office and use the WiFi, and an alleged gym with a few weights and an elliptical.[note]Residents have to pay $25 to use the “gym.”[/note]
I need to discontinue my certification goal for bit, as finances are too tight. I’ll hopefully be able to come back it after September, as I’m not going to be able to afford to stay here once they raise rent again. With some luck, I’ll find a place cheap enough to have some financial wiggle room to get back into things.
In the meantime, NaNoCertMo will need to be on hiatus. See you soon, Bats.
