I’m signing the lease this coming Monday and have started picking out furniture from craigslist and thrift stores. Buying new goes against my newfound green living and desire to avoid taxation.

The last few shifts I just didn't watch it and I've been living the life of a hermit so there was no visiting. Read how I did it…
