I actually have really good news in this post. Seems like all I've done is speak about the shit going on in my life, but this time it's flowers and sunshine.
My father in law has been off of the dialysis for a week now, off the respirator for almost a week. They're moving him out of the ICU to a hospice down in Cincinnati. Tomorrow, Jordan and I are going to go see him after I get off of work. It'll be so incredibly nice to talk to him and him be able to talk back to us. I know Jordan has seriously missed his voice.
I skipped out of work the last two days. "Mental health days" I dub them. Sure, my next paycheck is going to suck, but, I'm mentally ready for whatever comes next. After dealing with all the crap from the last few months without taking a day off, I think I deserved them.
We were able to get a few things last week that we've been wanting! I got Jordan a movie, A Scanner Darkly, and FFXII collectors edition, which was really cool because it was on sale and I got it for the price of the non-collectors edition. He's been playing it like crazy. Lesse... I got it for him on Friday, and he's played it for over 35 hours already.
Today I dropped by the grocery store to pick up a couple things, and I also picked up The Illusionist. I haven't seen it yet, but I've loved everything that Edward Norton's ever been in that I've seen, so I feel pretty confident that I'll love it.
THE NEW SEASON OF THE L WORD STARTED ON SUNDAY!!!!!!!!!!
There are no words to say how much I love that show. Watching that show makes me just feel all... happy inside.
I'm going to start looking further into getting a loan to pay off my credit card debt. I did the math today, to try to pay it off on my own, with my 27% interest rate, I'd be paying almost a thousand in interest alone. I hate getting myself more in debt to pay off a big debt, but shit, that interest rate will totally kill me. I figure a $3000 loan will cover it alright, I just need to find a place where I can get the loan without a co-signer. All the people who'd co-sign for me are at least 700 miles away, so... that wouldn't really work out. I also don't want to have to put everything I own as collateral, because if I happened to fuck up somehow, that would SERIOUSLY suck. That's what my grandmother said I should do, but, well, my grandmother is not only financially stupid, but going senile.
But yeah, that's my life as of now in a nutshell. A pretty big nutshell.
