((OOC: Have an in-person interview at the local Costco tomorrow, front of store assistant, $17.50 an hour, at least 24 hours a week... and a phone interview with a place that does printing and mailing stuff at 1PM... applied at both on Saturday, and already got call from Costco and e-mail from the other place... think Costco is the better way to go.))

((IRL: Just checking in... limited internet at ma's place... my cell phone is the modem, basically. I am poking around online to see if there is a way to get them an internet connection through the ACP (they didn't get a tablet or anything beyond their cell through Assurance, were previously through QLink)... ma gets foodstamps and SSI and Medicare (the one for elderly), stepdad gets SSI and Medicaid... what I'm trying to figure out is a cheap (ideally free) way to get them internet... I can handle the network issues and all that (nerd here), just seem to remember there was a way to do regular internet through something))
