I wonder if I can save money on food when moving out by just getting a 30 day supply of “just add water” MREs and cutting the portions in half? The only other food items I’d get would be flour and rice (in bulk), and maybe eggs, so I could pay only around 200 dollars in food for a supply of two months or potentially longer. It would work wonders for my executive dysfunction, not having to cook much. Plus, I could save money on gas by not having to drive to the store very often. I could also grow food indoors.

#This is what the cult gets for constantly drilling “calculate the cost” into my head #I’m an insufferable cheapskate (AKA: extremely frugal when I want to be)#I need calorie-rich foods… maybe I should start buying canned food from Ollie’s now and storing it away in my room #while I’m stable #Then when it’s time to move #I just transport all the cans there #I probably won’t have a car when I leave; but I have a bike with giant panniers on it so I’ll just use that as transportation #get a place within biking distance of my work; get an online job in the summer; do voiceover work and YouTube #Even if the rent is higher; I won’t have car payments to make #I’ll probably look like death warmed over from the food budgeting and constant biking but hey! No meetings!#And any social situations I’m required to participate in I’ll get paid for!#No love-bombing; no unwanted hugging #Can’t wait #It’s a shame there isn’t much public transportation around here other than the occasional bus stop #I wish we had a subway or train station
