ding dong, the bitch is as good as dead...

the ex finally paid off her damn car. the one with me as the primary on the loan. the one she kept neglecting to make payments on. the one GMAC has called me about every day this week because she was 60 days past due. it's finally paid off. my last tie to her is severed. now I just have to wait seven years to clear my credit history and I'll be feeling just fine.

it sucks how it takes seven years to purge an incident like that. by then I'll be completely debt free, except for the student loans (which will be paid down to a paltry $20k or so by then), and maybe we can buy a house somewhere. I'm sure by that point a large refrigerator box will only be going for about $750k in seattle. sigh.

on a more positive note, I've decided to obsess over the wii. I don't know why, as I'm not overly interested in video games. but I've decided I must have a wii. I'm hoping to wait until AFTER xmas to buy one (using xmas monies from my very generous nana), but I may break down and buy one sooner, if I can even find one. the wii sports package looks ridiculously fun, and I want to try excite truck, as "excitebike" was one of my fave games on the original NES.

I haven't been writing on here at all lately. but if it's an consolation, my nanowrimo also stalled at about 900 words. I haven't been motivated at all to touch it. to be honest, I don't feel like doing much of anything most days, I get home work and veg for a few hours before going to bed...

at least next week I get to attempt to cook a turkey. joy.
