I think I’ve decided against going to Milwaukee, as previously discussed. It’s somewhat doable, but it’d be a solid financial burden that I’d be bringing on myself. Everyone else working on this trip has a backup–either they’re still financially supported by their folks, or they’re at least in an easy position to turn to them if they need help. I’m not. Not that my parents wouldn’t help me, I can’t just expect that either of them would be capable of helping me without putting a strain on their own assets. Bottom line, I’m just not comfortable with taking the risk.
Now, Kristi is still waiting on Katie to check into some things, and if they fall into some amazing flight deals, and can really help me out, well, then I’m not against the trip. I guess I’m saying I’m not trying to talk myself out of it because it’d be an anxiety-causing new experience for me, I just think I’m kidding myself if I think I can really afford to do this…responsibly.
Damn the life of living paycheck to paycheck.
