A nice day. My old landlord called me to tell me that he was sending out my security deposit, which is enough to live off in Portland for two months. I celebrated by getting a gym membership, hopefully I will actually use it. I am certain I will in the short term seeing as I have very little else on my plate for the moment. I have an interview on Thursday that I am really hopeful for. I would be delivering the mail. Last week I got my guitar back from my old house and I have been playing it whilst wearing giant headphones before going to bed. I want to get better. It's embarrassing how low my skill level is considering I have been playing pretty consistently for nine years. I definitely don't take it seriously but it would be nice to excel at at least one of my hobbies. I can only knit scarves and I can't follow a pattern. I bike on the slow side. My bread is always a far too dense. All of these things are far from being consequential.
Today I noticed that I have been unknowingly paying 12 bucks a month for a credit monitoring service. I called the service intending to cancel service and got suckered in. I guess it's good insurance to know where you stand on these things. I found out a few things about my finances:
1. (-) I have a little over 50,000 out in student loans (I had guessed around 30,000... I don't keep track of these things.
2. (+) My credit is now 769 ... my income is dismal and I have so much debt... How the hell is it so high? I think I might have to go draw up a ten year plan to buy a shack out by Foster. Although it's going to take a while to pay off 50,000 bucks on a mail man's salary.
I am enjoying my lack of responsibility for the moment. I have fennel wild-rice pilaf on the stove and no particular plans until Thursday.
