Aaaaaah, gotcha...yeah, I met a lass like that...it didn't work out so well...put me off it for life...but I did happen to chance across a the love of my life at college so it all turned out alright.
As for hotel, food and that...can't you stay at hers, or is her place too small or something?
I found:

There might be travel-lodges and places in the area that do cheap stays...although I'm not so sure about insurance and that. Cheap food should hopefully be fair dos, considering the pound to dollar at the moment. Perhaps you should also try KLM, or some of the less well known liners...do a search for who operates to the US...even if you have to get a cheap flight to Europe to get a cheap flight to the States (god alone knows how that'd work out...but I've never flown before so I'm guessing how the airline industry functions).
Sorry if I'm already going over ground you've covered, I've never flown before, although me and the other half are eyeing up San Fran and the West Coast for a potential honeymoon spot in the near-ish future.
I hope you find something mate, even if it's hitching a lift with Beardy Branson if he tries another Round the World in a Hot Air balloon attempt.
