PF in AK

Well after a long stay at the parents' home I am back in Alaska.
The trip up was okay even though our plane was re-routed because of the ash plume from St. Augustine (erupting volcano).
I am still unemployed but hope to hear about a job this week or the next. whatever. I am just living on a friend's couch for a few days. The weather has been cold and there is snow. My money just keeps disappearing.
