Michael,
You can continue to whine in self pity or you can actually look into some of the many suggestions people have given in the past. Here are a few options:
1. Greyhound has a round-trip special=$54.
Taxi from your place to the Columbus Greyhound station and return=$20
Volunteer to help at SELF. 14 hours over the course of the weekend and you don't pay a dime for registration. ($135 savings)
Hotel room (shared is easy..people were begging for room space this year). Total for you if shared with one person=$80
That's $209.00. Add in another $75 for food and a toy from the Vendor Market for a total of $284.00
SELF '08 starts on June 13, 2008. Thats 363 days away. Save 78 cents a day and you could actually attend.
2. Join the SELF Yahoo group that someone suggested to you last month. Post a request for a ride and/or room share. I know of at least six people that came from Columbus.
3. Continue to whine and gripe.....it seems to be a fetish for you.
i get a little over $600.00 a month, rent takes about half of that, electric, cable (phone, cable and internet) take the rest...so, you see...i cannot afford that amount of money. SSI/Disability barely pays anything.
Ok I understand that. I am sure every one of us can relate to being dead broke at one time or another. But your whining in BOTH the SELF threads doesn't help you afford to go to an event and it makes me think I landed in Eeyore-ville.
Perhaps you need a more positive attitude...it will make life a WHOLE lot more fun.
peace
Syr Wolf
