Welcome back to college living. You need a roommate to share the rent. That nice, comfortable queen sleeper sofa is begging to be slept in. Or, if you're lucky, a roommate who can share your bed. Haha, I'm sure you've been looking for that for a while! It really sux, doesn't it? Is there a nursery (plants, not babies) where you can rent out your green thumb? That might not be so bad. The republicans wan to push retirement age up to 70 and cut benefits, so I'm afraid the suffering has only just begun.
