negativiity

One of my worst failings; is hoping for the best and planning for the worst.
In this case, I've got now (*three*) gigs this year that refused to pay me; and that either speaks to my reputation or to the fact that I haven't staked anyone out in the Nevada desert recently...

I've got two roomates (out of three) who cannot seem to get it together financially; like --- you know the rent is due on the first, not the 29 th)...  and one who so far has paid pretty much on time, and cleans up after herself.

And I have a gig with a computer store in Reseda/Northridge where the owner is doing the Whimpy-hamburger thing ... you know 'I'll gladly pay you Thursday for a Hamburger today"...

But I need cash dammit.  Between mortage, HELOC (thanks a lot Karyn for suggesting it), and credit card rates  on emergency expenses (Diane McK and Alivia A. Hu...)  I've got an additional three grand in high interest.

And no quick solutions.


yay.

OR as my good friend Kelly would say...

That's Great...

life.

and wait... there's more...

So... another month of non-payday's go by; and I land another fly-by-night gig.

It would be good to get paid.  Just to mark a diference from
1. Hitachi Consulting - aka - Robert "Bobby" B******  -- scofflaw
2. LWA  -- but that ship has sailed.
3. Mts --- aka myS*****M*****

but I digress...

Next time, I hold the towel out of reach.
