“Happy New Year!” Don’t I wish!
Well, I haven't been able to post in over a month because our internet connection evaporated for the simplest of reasons: failure to pay the bill! (We use our cable company’s “triple play” of TV, phone and internet.) I’m writing this post from a computer at the Apple Store near where I live.
Hopefully, I’ll be able to resume posting sometime in the near future, once we reestablish our internet access.
I really wish I were sitting on some money, so we could avoid eviction. We need US$1,000 by tomorrow, January 16, to prevent eviction. I’m reluctant to ask my mother because, knowing her, she’d attach quite a few strings to any money she loans us. How many? I like to describe it as “enough to make a shirt.” (It doesn’t help, either, that the landlord is an asshole, too.)
Worse, I’m expecting some money from my grandmother’s estate, but I won’t receive it for about four weeks at the earliest, given the probate process, court backlog, and so forth. Sigh.
Before I get too far along with my blog posts, I thought I’d provide contact information. You can reach me at dieterzakas@yahoo.com, and you can follow me on Twitter at twitter.com/karnydoc.
Here’s hoping to a (better) new year...
