Helpful therapist and full of shat apartment manager

So my therapist says I'm a happy person who wouldn't be any happier if I had more money. Hmmmm. I agree with the first part the second, well I think I'd be a little happier. I basically do believe that money doesn't buy happiness but poverty doesn't buy happiness either. I know unhappy rich people... Sign in to see full entry.

Getting the runaround and an arrogant minister

Talk America is giving me the runaround. First they said they would keep me turned on if I paid another $70 now they're saying I have to pay another $170 (of Cornell's bill). They did extend the deadline from the 7th to the 12th so that's something. I guess it just depends on who picks up the phone.... Sign in to see full entry.

Wizards, phone bills and small claims court

Still got a cold, guess I'll go home and watch the Wizards and rest. Of course if they almost blow a big lead like they did Monday, I may be too frustrated with them to get much rest. I'm trying to figure out what if anything to do about getting the money Cornell owes me. I've thought of everything... Sign in to see full entry.

Bit of a cold and an Oriole Game

Got a bit of a cold. Not going to miss any time from work though unless I absolutely have to. Gotta build up some sick leave. Today was one of those days where I felt like I got a lot done, but still fell further behind. Maybe someday the state of Maryland will wise up and spend the money to hire...

Almost Settled and Beauty Runs in the Family

Well it's almost settled now. Andrew is in, Cornell isn't completely out yet but I suppose he will be today. The question is will I get any more money from Cornell? I think he wants to pay but I seem to be at the bottom of the list of people he pays. If I bug him enough, I'll probably get some money... Sign in to see full entry.

New roommate and an old girlfriend

It looks like things are working out pretty okay. Cornell freaked out when I told him he needed to leave today but it looks like he's found another place already. I don't think he took me seriously when I told him he had to have his rent paid by the end of the month. He says he is picking up his... Sign in to see full entry.

Tossing my roommate

Well I just called the rental office and Cornell hasn't been there. I was throwing him out either way but I was hoping to get at least some money out of him before he went. I just left a message on the answering machine telling him he's being tossed in case I don't see him tonight. I'm going to go... Sign in to see full entry.

Booting a roommate and joining a bowling league

Turns out Cornell is still around. Andrew and Jenny had to postpone their visit until tonight because Andrew had car trouble. Going to be a strange weekend I think. Cornell says he is going to pay some of his rent tomorrow so I don't want to boot him until tomorrow evening after he's paid, otherwise... Sign in to see full entry.

Deadbeat Roommate Flies the Coop (maybe)

I think Cornell may have flown the coop. He wasn't around last night or this morning, so I'm wondering whether he jumped before I could push him. Course I basically already pushed him but it would have taken one more push to put him over the edge. If he is gone it would certainly make my life easier... Sign in to see full entry.

Roommates, Rejections and Fun Stuff in DC

Kinda tired today. Woke up too early this morning couldn't get back to sleep. I hate that. Al had car trouble so we had to rescedule his visit for tomorrow. Sort of gives Cornell a little more time to come up with the rent and utility money. I'm sort of rooting for Cornell to do it. He's a nice guy... Sign in to see full entry.
