Debt

Credit Card Debt is exhausting. It all began about 7 years ago in a little town called New Wilmington where, along with beginning my undergraduate life, I signed my soul away to the devil (Credit Card Companies are one thing that out Satan even Starbucks). Every time I think I've finally lassoed in my mounds of debt...it grows...and grows. Vacations are my ultimate downfall. I can rationalize going almost anywhere. A trip to Vegas? Yes! I need vacation! I need relaxation! As if relaxation were even possible in a town like Vegas. Then again, there are the necessary trips (like traveling to the far reahes of the Atlantic for a FANTASTIC wedding)
Regardless, every trip within the past 7 years has been sponsered in some part by Visa or Mastercard (maybe even both). Although...it was all worth it. And someday, when the dough is rolling in quicker than I can count (or so i hope), I'll laugh at the days I spent wrestling with myself as to whether I should go ahead and spend that WHOLE $4 on a starbucks. (mind you, a $4 caffeinated beverage is rediculous from any socioeconomic standpoint - but this is the world we live in).
Time to stop thinking about money and go be productive. PRODUCTIVITY = WOO.
