What to do, What to do

So i ditched my car to save money, and moved into a mucho cheaper apartment to save even more, and now the dilemma......my 'new' apartment needs some cheap furniture(and/or shelving....LOTS of shelving), and my bike is in really deep shit now. It's a twelve year old Cannondale thats seen A LOT of action, and she needs just too much work to keep her on the road now. I'd rather spend the $300 or so on a new bike i can commute on for a while until i save up my money enough to get the bike i REALLY want(which is about a grand).

The dilemma is.....do i get the furniture and shelves i need and continue to try to band-aid a bike with serious problems, or get the bike i need to get around witout worry and continue to live out of cardboard boxes for another month or so. That bitch is i've only got about $300 to play with here, so it's one or the other.

Oh, yeah, included in the furniture budget is a new $80 microwave, because the antique i had took a shit the day i moved into my new place. YAY!

which is more important? putting your crap away or reliable transportation? If it were me, I'd go with the transportation and fix up your place later, while you continue to enjoy employment since you can get there. :-)
