screwed

so i dont know about everyone else, but i am SCREWED beyond belief in terms of finances.

i lost my job this week, and have way too many bills to cover without that paycheck.

it's like, i work hard, and i work a lot, and all of a sudden, thanks to our crappy economy, i am drowning. there's no way i can pay for christmas presents, or to travel, or to keep up with my bills.

how did our country get so in debt? i was FINE a week ago, but then my boss told me his company is not doing well and everyone is worried.

with my current bills, and about to change paycheck, i will be in the red over $1500 a month until i can find a new job.

oh, and did i mention, NOBODY IS HIRING? nobody. unless they want to pay me, like 8-10 bucks an hour. which just wont cut it for someone who has a house, student loans, and medical bills.
