I applied for a loan to pay off all my credit cards and consolidate all my payments into one lower interest payment, and got a letter back from the bank declining it because "too many accounts open with balances at max."

Yeah...that was the fucking point of the loan...geniuses...

Bummer.

Silly boy. Banks never give money to people who could use it! Apply again when you don't need it and you'll be approved!

To be serious for a moment, if you don't mind... The bank's fear is that you will max the cards again after you get the loan, then be worse of off and the will lose their money. Is there an option where they pay off the card and close he accounts? They may go for that.

So it looks like we will be moving again.

I need opinions though.
The lease has a part that reads like this:
"This lease may only be terminated by 30 days written notice from either party."
Christine and my friend Chris seem to think that means we can write a letter and leave, but I think it just means that only a written letter can...

You send the letter, wait 30 days, and then leave. Or, letter, 30 days rent in advance, and leave when you want.

ORmy adviceletter, no extra money, and leave.

Sounds like the landlord is a dick. Take photos and copies of all documents showing how bad the place is, just in case there are complaints. You might also want to get records of her not being certified or getting her permits organised. Did she declare the rent income on her tax?
Good luck.

How does one become an alpha without becoming a douche? Haha.

My buddy just got a hardcore feminist he met playing Team Fortress 2 to text him pics of her topless.
The man can work magic. I must learn. Haha.

I have to talk to a lawyer, but honestly I don't think she can come after us if we break the lease.

A: When we signed the lease, we were told that the roof would be done in 2-3 weeks. It took her 5 months.
I have dated video evidence of how bad it was leaking as well.

B: She did not mention a single...

Sounds like you've got a nice out for the lease.

Good luck with your next move. Hopefully it will be the only one for a while?
artfulodin:
that photo of the deplorable condition of your only method of egress should be all it takes to get out of the lease. Honestly, that's borderline criminal for a landlord situation; they could have been fined for that.

Opinions.

One of my best friends, Chris, has a house. He HAD a room mate, who just got married after 4 months of knowing the guy and is moving out.
Jokingly I said "Well we could move in."
He said we could move in tomorrow if we wanted. All the cats, all the snakes...everything.
Not only would it NOT be the shit hole I currently...

I got to say, MOVE ASAP, manna from heaven. The ll is in bankruptcy = fucked anyway, and, therefore your lease is shit. The sooner your move the few probs and the better for your and your biz, and you snakes. Luck.
wolfwood1203:
Sounds like a good deal to me man.

The show did something even better than expected...
Christine fell in love with spider morph combos and wants to start her own collection of ball pythons.
And breed along with me.

Most excellent.

Back from the show. I have been awake for 29 hours on 3 hours sleep.
I got 3 new snakes. A female Genetic stripe, a male butter (only snake I am naming...Professor Chaos), and a male chocolate.
Awesome. smile

Pics later. I took no pics or video at the show though. Too crowded...and I was too sleepy. Next time, I promise.

Business cards came in just in time for the show, and I am glad to say zazzle did a great job.
I found an online coupon for 50% off too, so I got 200 for the price of 100.
Gives me about 150 to hand out at the show, and 50 to save to put in boxes with snakes next season.

Can't wait for the...

My boss told me if I could fix his laptop, he would let me borrow money for the reptile show.
He let me borrow $400, with the promise that I am going to pay back $500 by August 2013 (basically once babies hatch and sell).
If the babies I want to hatch actually happen, that will be no problem at all.

Now I have to...

Sorry to hear about your teacher! Good ones are a treasure beyond measure... <3

I had jackson's chameleons for a while, 3 of them.. :/ two had an infection when I got them, and one my roommate killed while I was on vacation in Miami back in March. >( He forgot to spritz her with water, I'm guessing. Fucktard...

I miss my babies, a whole bunch! Ivy, Pebbles, and Bruno.. Pebbles lived the longest, had her for a year- that bitch was hard as rocks! wink

New washer and dryer (meaning different...craigslist)
Good to have that bullshit settled. A washer that isn't ripping holes in the clothes and a dryer that isn't doing the same while sounding like a rock tumbler.
The dryer was on the curb for less than an hour before it was taken. Haha.

Sunday is the reptile expo. Not sure if I will have money for it...

pinyon:
Damn, people must be having a much harder time in your area of the country than here for that dryer to disappear so fast. What are you hoping to see at the expo?
