Hours away from evicition

Posted by VicariousE - September 18th, 2015


Well, just over a hundred hours, but all my comfort zone stuff is still in place, and most everything's boxed up for local storage, or storage in containers... which I have no idea where they will be stored O_O  Same with the 10 or so farm cats; all the local shelters are booked solid, animal control would gas them within a week... guess I better pay off the neighbors, have them feed and water the poor things.

A close friend here asked me how house hunting is going.  It's not at all, same with a temporary rental (don't like apartments, but may try it).  I've been so busy sorting and storing... it's all gotta get reduced down to an extended vacation, with access to limited amounts of stuff for a rental.

Roughly speaking, I have to be suitcase-ready by noon Tuesday the 22nd of September, or face a 200$ a day penalty, for overstaying my welcome, in the only home I've ever really known.  I guess I have to cancel the utilities, ostensibly, permanently.  Take down the bell, pull the mailbox, board the housecat, woof.


On a happier note, next week I plan on staying in north Philly for a week or so, visit with as many Newgrounds-pounders as possible while I'm looking for a rental during the day.  Talk about being ungrounded, still need to put a hold on my mail!

I'm hoping maybe Tom can hook me up with the Sleepycabin cast, maybe sit in on a Sleepycast.  My life's been so out of sorts since my father died (almost 3 years ago), I haven't had the time to split my interests here on Newgrounds.  I've met Ricepirate and Stamper briefly at the past 3 Pico Days, mostly under awkward circumstances.  It's a shame they're living the life I did 15 years ago, a life that pretty much died the day I picked up Tom's digital torch of  a website, soon to be breakout success.

I leave my old world behind, and hope the new one is full of friends and, well, personal stability.  Thank you all for your kind attention.  Anyone in Newgrounds City fancy a visit from VicariousE.. I mean Steven?  I'll spring for lunch!

EDIT 21 September:  The new owner and his extended family came over Saturday evening, and reassured me, I have another week or two to consolidate and leave (verbally, not on paper, eek), hopefully without being penalized 200$ a day!  They could care less about me, but would like the farm worked, right up until they break ground... getting me out is a necessary evil.

Damn dude. Have you thought about checking out their twitters if you have one? Mick (ricepirate im sure you know) responds regularly and im sure he'll know who you are so maybe he can help you our or something in some way.

You know? You have a point there! I don't have a twitter thing, suppose I could make one and stuff.... might not look legit being a new account and all, hmm... Could just send him a PM and take my chances.

The fun thing is, I don't know the other guys at Sleepy Cabin, so maybe it'll be more fun? All I know is, if we get into old sordid stories, I can beat anything they throw at me >:3 Old men have their tales yo.

all I can say is I wish you the best, I know you can pull through this in the end!

Thanks so much, I hope so too. Gotta find something somewhere... I'm likely going to do the airbnb thing for a few weeks, while my 15 y/o house cat is boarded someplace. I'd hate to just rent for the rest of my life :p

Yeah man, or send him a message on here even, though I don't know how often he checks his NG account for messages. Or go to the sleepycabin site as well, though I don't know how often he checks that either.

Wouldn't hurt to try dude!

Yeah, or I could just wait till I find an airbnb place to crash locally first, then say, "Hey, I'm in town for the next 2 weeks, when can I come by and freak you guys out?" I'm really boring person, but somehow shit happens...

Hope I still have my logon info for Sleepycabin, should start there first! Should probably send Shadman a PM as well, I'd like to take him and his wife (whom I've never met) out to dinner one night.

I'm glad you got that little extension. I hope it's genuine.

Me too O_O Gotta call the owner's associate back... seems like everyone waited until the due-date came and went to bother me :\ At least I don't have to pay extra for the containers to be stored in the company's rack system, but will get charged 50$ per container for having them moved... even if it out of state, so that's not too bad, considering how much weight I've been stuffing them with.

Happy Madness Day brother! If the Nexus 2 demo isn't done by the time I'm outta here, I may pay them boys a visit while I'm in town >:3

Oh yeah I forgot about airbnb. Never knwo if you dont try it.

I didn't know Shad had a wife. I don't know much about him, which is fine lol.

It's either that or stay with Emily Youcis, risk having one of my kidneys lifted. Still need to make an account, and hope will gamble on lil ol' me sticking around; sure beats hotel rates!

He's a foreigner, originally, used to ride in a tank loading shells 'n shit. After he got out of the army, he traveled around looking for a home, and somehow ended up here, thinking this was the best country to settle in O_o

I don't know who Emily Youcis is, I don't think.

I know some about Shad, due to the SleepyCast episode he was in earlier this year. It was really interesting and cool.

I've never seen her blond, btw... http://articles.philly.com/2011-10-04/sports/30242850_1_pistachios-ballpark-boots might be a wig they made her wear. http://emily-youcis.newgrounds.com/ She doesn't hang out on NG much, just uploads crazy shit.

Ah, now that one I'd like to listen to! I guess you have to be logged in to listen to them... I tried not along ago, and the individual podcast pages didn't do squat, they're probably on YT... oh wait, for some reason Soundcloud didn't work last time

Sounds stressful.

It's a little better now, though having more time doesn't negate the issue, still having the utilities turned off October 2nd. Though I can live fine without all that stuff (water should still be on), I'd like to have everything possible packed away before then, since the farmhouse is due to be flattened anyways :p

go full vindictive and burn shit down

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roadwork though you'd probably like this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rage_%28King_novel%29 both have one or two sex scenes and a lot of FU attitude

Nah I'd lose my 5k$ deposit. Besides it's dry as fuck around here. I'm more concerned some shits might break in after I've gone, to pilfer the copper out of the house >:( but that's up to the new owner to care or not care about

But yeah, it sure would be a full circle kinda thing to do huh? Fuck it, maybe I can scare up some decent trouble across the river in PA, while mourning my old patch

take the copper yourself and blame it on the local hustlers. get yo $5k + prob like $200

Every penny counts, sure, but the lease is kinda specific about what I can take away from the house... and they haven't told me for sure, if they'll rent it or smash it. They=3 entities, kinda like that knight in Monty Python's Holy Grail

Plus I'm fucking tired of scrapping stuff that's perfectly usable |: scrap $ dropped a shit ton lately thanks to China slowing down
