• damn, it seems weird leaving work while there's still sunlight out.  even when we're let go "early" (the time we're supposed to get out. 5pm) it's just turning dusk.  they let us go real early today (12:30), giving us a weekend plus! I stop off to fill the tank on the truck (41 bucks) then head to my favorite beer store for a 12'er of suds, then while home, I do some much needed online banking. I figure in a smallish amount to get me by for this week, then what ever is left, I divide up to pay things like my home improvement Credit card debt, and hospital bill (cracked throat thing), ending up spending a good $185 towards paying down debt (shweet!).  it won't be long and I'll be back in black (no, not AC/DC highway to hell bound...I'm talkin' zero debt, once again).  now I know I blathered on at one point or another, about the evils of credit cards, but I just couldn't get myself to chop up the hardware store card, due to the store carrying everything under the sun, in case, say, one of my appliances goes on the blink, or my water heater takes a poop.  they carry all that stuff (meanwhile, that's the only place I can use that card, so I'm not tempted to use it everywhere else, like a normal Visa/Mastercard).  it's been good in the past as well, for redoing my shed, the roof, my porch, interior paint and trim, etc.,  so it can only benefit me to hang on to that one.  every other card I had saw the fate of the scissors months/years ago, including my Best Buy card (that one was a REAL tough one to cut up!).  anyway. I'm boring you (and myself) with finances again...I think I'll take me a smallish power-nap...I've worked a Godzillian hours. I'm thinkin' I deserve a little R@R
