9. I've been there too
Taking frigid showers and eating only food that could be microwaved or eaten raw for several months because my gas got cut off. And once upon a time I flirted with the idea of running my own bookstore but I know that could never happen.

Now I just work my two jobs where I know I'm incredibly expendable regardless of how well I do my work and how many years of service I have in. I just keep hoping things will hold out until I get my graduate degree (whenever that may be) and I get a better job. If things go on as they have been, that could be a looooong time from now.
