Especially because of the worth of the car! its a 2005 with 130,000 miles on it! They are better off just charging me late fees! ARent they?

I still havent called yet...

[nikkiblue]

doing it now...

[Karen]

it's really hard to evict someone...thank goodness I can still make rent. I'll expect my phone to shut off soon... lol. (i know its not funny, but what else can I do but laugh)

I only pointed that case out because I too am surprised your car was repo'd so quickly.


Call the phone company and explain your situation and they will try to help.

[nikkiblue]

had to leave a message... Brett Dennen was playing during the hold music, tho...

I should have done it with my car loan... I never returned any of their calls. I'm sure I could have avoided this.

[Karen]

Lessons learned.

It's NOT to late to take control of all of this sweetie

[nikkiblue]

Thanks Karen... &--#60;3

[KrisNYG]

Listen to Karen here, she's spot on as per usual. You will be okay, make a couple calls and handle it prior to shit happening again. They really do not want to take things and shut shit off as they stop making $ on you at that point. You'll find a job that is better for you and you will be okay. XOXOXO

[nikkiblue]

Thanks Karen... It'll get figured out. If not, I

[nikkiblue]

hehe.. freakin Budgett's been walking all over the keyboard and screwing everyting up...

[nikkiblue]

Thanks to both of you. This sucks, but I know somehow I'll pull myself out. What a fuckin hole I've dug myself into over the past couple of years... jeesh.

[MeOmYo]

not a hole, it's just life. ups & downs.

there's a good black market for babies. of course, if you start now you won't see returns for a while but it's just a thought.

[nikkiblue]

I have been toying with the idea of a black market baby for about a year now. Slave, Augie and I are leaning towards the fetus in a jar.... brings profits quicker.

[TEO]

(((Nikki))) Yes you will pull yourself out wiser and stronger than before.

Much love

[gram-man]

I'm wondering if it's now ok for you to tell someone you have waitressing experience

You will get through this

[nikkiblue]

lol. Oh Hush YOU! Maybe if I DID lie...He would figure out a way to put me on the schedule..... Soooo. u dont know. lol.

[pixiebug]

eek, that sucks. must mean there's a better place for you, right??

[nikkiblue]

There has to be, Mama... There just has to be.

I just sent a resume for a case manager for HIV-AIDS clients... right around the corner from your work. wish me luck on that.

[Jwheelz]

that sucks, I hope you find something that works for you and you enjoy though

[Lazy Lightning]

I am so sorry to hear this Nikki - I'm glad to see you're still your same ol' chipper self, I think having the abilty to laugh when shit goes wrong is one of the best ways to stay afloat.

There is good advice here. You'll sort it out. I too am playing catch-up on a bunch of items, just gotta keep filling in the hole and soon you'll be standing on top of a mountain - at least, that is what I keep telling myself!

The gig-hunt can be a trial - at least now you do have some waitressing experience - you know what it's about and that you can do it. Something awesome is out there waiting for you, keep on putting yourself out there so that it may find you!

[nikkiblue]

yea, I have to laugh at myself....I'm a mess. lol. Who am I going to be mad at?

That job was perfect b/c it was cash. I like cash. oh well. I can't ever catch a break.

Whats REALLY killing me is the fuckin bank calls me EVERY DAY!!! like 6 times a day, they are calling me about my car loan, and today I have left them 2 messages, and Not ONE phone call all day.. I'
m so pissed! If I had the money today to get my car back, Id be calling them and giving them shit.

A lot of offices have off for the holiday(s).

I'm sure you'll hear from them Monday.

[nikkiblue]

yea, I figured that. I was saying that having my car repo'd on good friday is a punishment for eating meat on fridays through lent. lol.

[foo]

I was hoping to hear better news.

[nikkiblue]

yea, it's a crappy turn of events... lol.

[nydeadhead]

[Karen]

Any news on getting the car back?

[nikkiblue]

Any news on getting the car back?

ugh. I'm so upset, I havent even wanted to talk about it!

Turns out, the finance company was closed for Good Friday, so I had to go the whole weekend without even being able to contact anyone. I called Monday, left another message and spoke to a rep who said that I had to wait to speak to someone in the collections dept, and to just be patient that they would call back. Finally, yesterday afternoon I spoke to a really sweet girl who nicely explained how I was getting my ASS RAPED from the repo fees and all the money I owe them. I need to come up with almost $1,200 to get my car cleared. Another $50 + $30 a day from the repo yard. I fucked up so badly. I was behind $550, and its costing me $1500 to get it back. Thankfully, I happen to be getting a 1200 tax check on Thursday...otherwise Im not sure what I would do.
Plus Augie's car broke down on Saturday night. cost him $650 yesterday. This all is crazy.

[Terrapin Station]

Wow, eff them. I would prolly tell them to keep it for that much $. Go buy a used car for $1500?

[pixiebug]

that sucks ass.

[china cat]

omgoodness, Nic

I am so sorry to read all of this.

super hugs to you and aug right now. i really hope something opens up for you soon.

xoxo

[nikkiblue]

i thought of it, but I doubt thats a good idea. lol. It's my own fault, as usual. More consequences for me being stupid.

[nikkiblue]

seriously. if I never got that dwi, I would have never destroyed my career, and everything would be on track... The consequences have been monumental.

[Lazy Lightning]

Your accountability is admirable - seriously.

I send you all the positive move-forwards vibes that there are in the world.

[Slave Self Promoted]

you gotta experience the lows in order to truly appreciate the highs, babe. things will work out.

[Karen]

You can get everything back darlin. Just put one foot in front of the other
