Default I'm free...

Well, this is an exciting day. This month I managed to get myself free from about $10,000 worth of debt I've had growing for about 6 months. This has been hanging over my head for a while and it was slowly killing me at the thought of it. I finally got rid of the last $3,000 worth of it today.

I've been hustling like a madman all month because I had a situation present it self to help me out and now that it is all said and done I just feel so relieved and like a HUGE weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

Man, this will help free up some money for travel and some other big things that I have planned for the year.

Shots all around hehe...

Sweet! Congrats. As for the shots, just make sure they are not nasty, curdled carbombs.

Worst part is, I remember buying Kamakazi's, but not sure if I was around for the carbombs or not.

Yeah I will have to wait and see about the passport stamp . I have some other big stuff I want to get before I consider another trip. It just depends on how quickly I can come up with another chunk of moolah again.

Doesn't everything always seem to base itself around that though?

You were, but hey, it would have been a traumatic memory if you had remembered them anyway. You're better off, but I think Jamie is scarred.

Anyway, glad to know you've got the debt off your shoulders! Go have some fun times! :D

Yeah, that's not the first time I just kind of lost track of what happened on a Saturday night out.

no pun intended given we lost you in the T station???

And yes - I am still scarred by the carbomb experience. I love real carbombs.....but the stupid bartender dumping the shots in himself and letting the Bailey's congeal into a cottage cheese like substance inside the Guiness.........

Probably still tasted better than those breastmilk marshmallows though........:eek:

I probably knew I had to be back up in my neck of the woods for another party that I was supposed to pop in for that night. As far as I know, I never made it there. I should email the girl who invited me to find out if I did or not actually.
