  • I work 5 minutes drive from home. I’ve thought about biking to work but then I’d have nowhere to sleep during my lunch break.

    I have a neighborhood friend from growing up who doesn’t drive. He works 1 block away from where he lives. Another friend in my current neighborhood also doesn’t drive. He picked up a second job and just used Uber to get to that one. His usual job is within walking distance from our neighborhood. Both these guys live at home with their parents.

    Once the money starts coming in you will spend it on grown up stuff like getting to work. Once you start spending up to 40 hours a week working you’ll find that spending money also requires spending time that you’ve already spent at work.

    Whenever I have a little extra cash burning a hole in my pocket I browse Steam for games that might interest me. It’s usually a shit show and feels like a waste of time. Picking up a new game is less exciting when work beats you down and you don’t have the energy to learn how to enjoy it.

    You are a young adult. Do everything you can to enjoy your free time before work sinks it’s claws into you. It will happen sooner or later. Having an income is good and all but we are all spending time at the same rate. Rich or poor we all only have 24 hours in a day. One day you’ll look back envoiusly at 19 year you who owned all of those 24 hours every day.

    I’m waiting for temperatures to drop for the feral cat to come by. Cornelius drops by when it gets cold out and makes himself at home. My cats have accepted him. It’s been a few months and I hope he’s doing well. His “owner” hadn’t seen him in months last I checked in.
