Waiting to be homeless

Last week I was informed that the house I am living in is selling, which is great news for Kevin, not for me though. I will admit the past couple months I have not been planning (saving is another way to put it) on the house selling for a bit, so in turn I am kind of in a situation. While I do still have 3 weeks to find a place and save, that still will not give me enough time to save enough.
After 2 budget rewrites and cutting back on everything. I still cannot afford anything really. I have found 3 apartments so far that fall with in my budget range that are not student housing and are relatively close to work, and out of the three so far one has been filled, one is no longer listed so that I may contact them, and the last I am hoping to go look at and apply for on Tuesday. SO with that being said, the future for my housing does not look well. In fact my plan now is to box up all of my things deposit them between a couple different places (under the stairs at my parents and in the crawl space at my brothers) and then couch hop until something in my meager budget pops up.
That being the case, I plan on sleeping on multiple couches, beds, futons, floors, and probably in my truck in the next little while. I am not complaining because that would do me no good, especially since this is partially my fault with not saving money when I needed to. So, if I happen to ask if I can use your floor or couch or maybe your shower once or twice, please be kind and say yes.
