Just in time for my homelessness.

Just in time for my homelessness.

Trying to figure out how to block out the windows in my truck so no one can see through them. The big side windows in the cargo area are the ones I'm most concerned about. Otherwise, I have my sleeping area made up and it may actually be somewhat comfortable.

I have my 10° sleeping bag and my comforter so that shouldn't be too bad.

Now to find a "safe" place to park. A friend had a great idea for when the weather gets really bad. He suggested paying for underground parking in an underground lot. The temperature, while cold, will be more even and I'd be out of the wind and snow. I was looking for a parking garage but didn't even think about an underground one.

There isn't enough light to take a picture of my setup, so you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

I think Walmart is tolerant of people sleeping in vehicles

Yep, definitely going to need some way to block the light. After the past year of.sleeping in pitch black this is far too much.

Bodhipaksa he's definitely very passive aggressive with insecurity issues. Whether his issues will result in more control (remember, he's a self-proclaimed minimalist [control issues]) we'll have to wait and see, but almost every woman I've spoken to has said she'll come to her senses sooner or later. I'm just not sure she will. I jokingly referred to her relationship as being cult-like and she didn't see the parallels, saying she wasn't in a cult but she was happy. I told her no one in a cult believes they're in a cult. Her relationship is the same: controlling.

I'm shutting down Google+ for the night and quite possibly for the weekend. Why? This stupid #gifwars thing people are so proud of. This Adam Black guy said he doesn't like gifs and now everyone is mass trolling him. Having been mass trolled like this I can relate to him easily enough. Have an opinion and the collective might of Google+'s lower class denizens jump on a bandwagon. I just saw a post where someone wanted to jump on board and had to get clarification she was tagging the proper Adam Black. She wasn't even connected to him ! Nor was she a part of the original discussion. She just wanted to follow the herd. When I called her out of it she claimed, "one gif doesn't make a troll." Perhaps not, but she's contributing to a larger troll effort. One straw doesn't break the camel's back, but thousands will. So, tonight, Google+ disgusts me. It probably will tomorrow as well. And possibly Sunday. I gave up Google+ for two months this spring
