Well, it's three weeks later and I'd better give an update. I got over the bad stuff and moved back into a regular bed. Had another frustrating experience: I called a temp agency about a job and was told I would need to send a resume. I put one together and sent it to them, and they told me to call back the next day. This went of for five days, and then they finally told me I didn't get the job. This wouldn't have been so bad except each day I called them was a day I didn't go out and work day labor, so they cost me $300 for a week of not working.
On the positive side, my birth certificate finally came, so after I have a little cash set aside to get me through I can start truck-driving school courtesy of the state of Utah! Also, some time ago I reported that I couldn't take a job I wanted because their training class starts at 0600 hours and the first bus going there doesn't even leave town until 0610! Well, I just found out they've changed their start time to 0700! Maybe they listened to all of us who wanted to work for them and couldn't because of that. Now I just have to work day-labor for a couple of weeks and I'll have enough money to get me through three or four weeks of no pay while I go to one or the other.
Ooh! Ooh! I almost forgot: Neal sent me a cool genuine official SH4 poster as my prize for the "Skipper of the Month" thing! And a little official paper of congratulations!
Thanks Neal; and thanks to all of you guys!
