User blog:Cuddles Epic/About Cuddly Rants and my hiatus.

Recently, lots of things appear to be happening to me and my loved ones. I was fired from my job and had to begin working at a local fast food restaurant to be able to keep a roof over my head. This was only the beggining of my problems.

So, of course I couldn't afford to keep my apartment in the city, so I was able to find a cheap afforable home in the country. it isn't great, but it's livable. I have all but two neighbors. One of them is constantly blaring music and he is a total asshole. The other is a newfound friend. We became best friends, in fact, over the course of a month.

Things were actually finally looking up, until my newbest friend was in a terrible bike accident and suffered severe head trauma. He is now mentally retarded. His family lives too far away and are now completey neglecting him. So, I am his caretaker.

Surprisingly, I've been able to scrape together some extra money for some martial arts classes. (Something I've always wanted to do.) I also met a good friend there. This just makes me so thankful for the loved ones in my life.

I know I may not sound finacially-sound enough to do all these things, but I also go a pet. He's a playful little fella'. He is purr machine, but can be a little snippy when he's hungry.

Anyway, when I'm off work, I like to take my disabled friends on adevntures. We sometiems go 'hunting' in the fields. Or maybe we'll go into a 'scary' place and meet all sorts of monsters and people. He enjoys it and it helps me keep my mind off of things too. I one time brought my disbaled friend to meet my grandmother with alsheimers and dimentia. They actually thought they were related, haha.

Though, I'm still in a rough patch. I actually made an imaginary friend. yeah, I know it's insane and childish, but I need everything I can to distract me form the real world. But, I know I can't just push the real world away always, but...I dunno, life in Bikini Bottom just does that, I suppose.
