I am in the same position as you both, Looking for a job so I can get more lego!

Got this one the other day when a box showed up, My mom at least somewhat
understands, though she doesn't always like it. I just keep telling her I could
be wasting the money sitting at the bar getting drunk every night instead. Or
heaven forbid out buying drugs or some other illegal thing.. At least to me the
money is spent wisely on Lego.

I feel your pain.. I have a 9ft by 11ft room that is holding my almost 70,000
piece collection also a entertainment center, dresser, computer desk with 3
computers, my bed and a building table... I was lucky I was able to take over a
closet in another room for my clothes and we built shelves into my closet, it's
the ONLY way I would have been able to get everything into this room.
