Well, after my near panic attack, I called my voicemail at work and found that an offer had finally come in on my listing in Somonauk. After some paperwork and voicemail counter-offering, a price was agreed upon and a closing date was set by Tuesday night. If all goes well I should have a very respectable check coming my way in about five and a half weeks. It won't pay off all my debts, but it will pay all the bills for that month and take a good bite out of my credit card balance.
Tonight my grandpa called me and asked me if his car is worth $600. I had been asking him if he would think about selling it to me, even though I don't have any money yet. My dad said he would probably sell it for about $1000. When I told my dad that Grandpa would sell it to me for $600, he said he'd buy it at that price. I think what I'll do is offer my Grandpa $800 for it if he'll allow me to buy it on an installment plan. That way he'll get a little more and I don't have to come up with all the money plus tax, title fees, and insurance at once.
I've got to apply for more jobs, but I really want something to open up in DeKalb. That would make the most sense since that is where I'll be going back to school.
Tonight I got home and it was really hard to not turn on the television. I ate some food and got my sister to play chess with me. It was down to my King and Rook against her King and there was no way I could force a checkmate so I gave up. Eariler today I finally sat down and decided I'd learn the intro to Weezer's "My Name Is Jonas". It isn't complicated, just fast. I don't have it 100% yet, but I think I'll be there soon.
The last order for business tonight will be to finish up my snail mail newsletter. Then tomorrow I will make copies and stuff them into envelopes and mail them off. Hazaa, hazaa!
Currently listening to:
Weezer - Weezer - Buddy Holly
