Toils of the working man

February 28, 2005 by Aaron

Well, this weekend was interesting. I was in Brainerd for “Spring Leadership Day” with Intervarsity, and to be honest, I didn’t get much out of it personally, but it was good to be there, and get to know some of the freshman better.

Yesterday, I was at the Beargrease Sled Dog Marathon watching my friend Rachel race. I originally went there to just watch, but ended up helping get the dogs ready for her race, and helped get the sled to the starting line. She’s doing the Mid-Distance race, which is a 2-day, 150 mile race. The Long race is 3-4 days, and is 400 miles. It was very interesting watching all the mushers and dog sled teams.

But today, I get to go to campus and get some hours in working for Computer Maintenance. I really wish I had more business, or more development projects to work on, as I’d rather be doing that to pay the bills than have to work on campus. It’s not that I don’t like working there, I really enjoy it there. I’d just like to see my business take off more, and be more successfull. It’s been real hard these last 2 months since my roommate moved out. So I’ve been having to cover all the expenses of having a house by myself. I’ve gotten a little behind in some of the bills, and I feel really bad about it. Especially since I’ve had to ask my parents for help a couple of times.

Right now, if I can’t find another roommate, or work doesn’t pick up for my business, I’m going to have to sell my house. I just can’t afford to live here by myself with my current level of income. So yeah, that sucks.

Well, off to campus to work!
