Subject: RE: BS: Newlywed Advice?
We can't sleep together on a twin bed. We did that in Canada for the first three months until we got a double futon. I didn't sleep much at all those first three months except when he got up. Not even a double will fit in that room unless most of the other furniture goes out.

What will fit in that room? One desk, one double bed, no dresser because the drawers wouldn't be able to be opened (and I don't know how they'd manage to get it out of the room anyway), no other desk. Or one desk, one dresser that can't be used as a desk, one twin bed that we can't sleep on... he has a computer and I am using his laptop. So there'd be nowhere to put one of the two computers.

We've been sleeping on the floor when it gets too bad. And our knees bump into the dresser and the desk.

I don't know what gave you the idea that he's small, he's over 6 feet tall!

We can't empty the closet because the basement doesn't have room in it, so my clothes are on the floor anyway. To clear the floor to sleep on it we have to put my clothes elsewhere.

Computer addiction? Sure. I've admitted to that freely. That's also my only way of earning money or of studying. I do almost everything on the computer because it doesn't care whether I'm sick or not like people do, particularly job employers. Contract employers don't care where you do a job, or what you look like, they just want the job done. Job employers need people to actually show up all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.

The only reason I'm not working right now USING MY COMPUTER is that I'm not legally allowed to work in the US yet. But I'm studying more advanced web development so that when I can work again, I'll be in the position of being able to get contracts more easily.
