It's a little bit funny, when your preconceptions bite you in the ass.

So, as previously mentioned my life is a mess.  Not me personally, excepting for the lack of funds department;  cat pee in my office (thanks guys!) and roommates who don't always see eye-to-eye. (So what's new...)?

The friend (former roommate) who moved back *temporarily* has now secured a place elsewhere, and she is slated to move first of next month (May).  Meanwhile, she paid me $500 for last month's rent... and then immediately borrowed $300 (again) to help put down the deposit.  That doesn't even cover *this month's rent...  To be fair, she is sleeping on my floor between bookshelves --- that keeps her out of the living room at night; and I don't have to deal with random TV nonsense.

I've gone over finances with her; and I don't believe that she's going to pay me back.  Unless a miracle occurs; which is what she is hoping for. Uber isn't working out for her... she got a new car (well, used but pretty new) and she spent one afternoon being *available* and got no calls.  I suggested that she get up early in the morning and try the 4am-6am shift... but so far she has not.

And... she wants to *borrow* a flatscreen TV for the new place; because I'm walmart?  maybe if she kicks in $$$ I might consider it; but grifting is an art. And artist she's not. 

I like her, she's nice people; but unfortunately yet another example of mostly clueless inability to be useful; I'm not letting her prepare the meals --- I'm a little afraid that without specific instruction she will go offtrack; and I'm apparently unable to task her with anything else (she's too busy).

She's not violent, nasty or a thief...  but I'm definitely (again) doing more of the altruistic charity thing than I would wish...

I'm just glad that the little brain isn't chiming in.  At all.  That's a good thing.

Seven. More. Days. (more or less).

I'm betting that she's going to start setting up the new place but not stay there... and that leaves me where exactly?
