End silence now.How did the Sunday Financial Meeting go, you ask? Well, first of all, thank you for asking. Second of all, none of your business. Third of all, it went well and it was brief. I have no one to pay off just now and no money to pay with. I still have no cash, though I have a change jar I plan to unleash. I'm going to have a busy week outside of my financial duties so my checklist will be smaller to accommodate my schedule. We musn't burn ourselves out now.
Here's what I have planned for completion by the next Financial Meeting:
- Send a Fathers' day card. I have no money for a gift, but I can send a kind word via card.
- Set up a time to call my mom's husband. When I contacted my mom about borrowing money to pay off some of my credit card, he volunteered to give me advice should I need it. He's a lawyer, see? And that could come in handy for future credit card negotiations.
- Research competing credit cards. If I can find one with no interest for the first six months, or even just a lower average APR, I can transfer my balance to pay it off that much quicker. Keep in mind, I'm borrowing a good chunk of money from my mom and girlfriend to lower that balance before I transfer it.
- I have an interview for a better job this Thursday. I'm thinking of showing up drunk. Because that's the mark of a man. And I reckon I am one.
- Follow up on my student deferment. I faxed my request last week. I'll call this Thursday.
By next Sunday, I'll be able to use money again! To buy the things I need. Like prairie dogs. Lots of prairie dogs. Have I told you about my addiction?
Kissy-kissy... awwwww...
