  • SQUEEEEEEEEAK!

    checking my mailbox the other day, I get a thick envelope from a bank in Tennessee..."what the hell is this?". I open it up and it's a car payment coupon book. WHAT?! then it dawns on me, I guess I'm the proud owner of a 2010 Ford Fusion. I assumed the dealership that the Kid works at would have set it up so he gets the book, etc. what else am I assuming, that will or won't take place, that'll bite me in the ass later. damn, I didn't sign up for this. oh well, I let the Kid know. I'm sure he'll send money soon (right? right!). meanwhile, I set up an auto bill pay within my online banking and I now have about $3 to live on for the next week [nominated for 'guilt trip sentence of the year' award :) ]. I knew I'd feel the pangs of co-signing, but didn't figure it would be right off the bat. some advice to the Kid...you mentioned you'd like to make double payments to pay the thing off earlier. my suggestion is you make single payments until you get good and adjusted to your new budget. it may take as long as a good year (or longer) to feel comfortable making multiple payments. unless you're makin' some big bucks, a double car payment could mean not enough money left for food and rent. it's better to roll slow and steady than to live on the edge of financial crash and burn. anyway, we'll iron this out as we go...no worries.

  • Wow, I can still see you. Nice~ I can even log in. Weird. Hope your fall is excellent! Gotta go rake some of those fruit loop tree drop offs myself. Not ready. Ick...

  • I click on your link and it says "sorry, try again..." dammit! I miss the old xanga. it was so much more user friendly and warm. this place is ice station zebra in February, but it's cool that we can still connect, be it ever so limited. I miss your writings...and what happened to Coney and his grampa?! I guess I'll never know. sad days.

  • notdeadjustfainted2.wordpress.com I guess that's where you'll find me for now. I haven't written much cuz of Ebay sales and junk. As for Coney, I need to change his name cuz it's kinda stupid. Also, I need to get back into writing. I have the ideas, just haven't taken the time. Oh YOU will find out cuz you're my muse. When Mike goes on his motorcycle trip and/or then to his daughter's, I'll take some vaca time and write the dang story or at least enough to make some sense of it. Hope things are groove chicken. I'm still able to spy on you so there's always that. If you ever find time, let's do steaks on the grill. Ta

  • IT WORKED!!! YeYAAAAyahhh...
