Money Woes

I am back from New Jersey. We actually came back on Sunday, but I just haven’t had much time or drive to blog. We didn’t win anything in Atlantic City, we actually lost around $1500. I think it’s okay though because most of the bills are paid and even though the network I work for is going through a rough patch, I have been putting bids in on GAF and other freelance sites to make some extra cash. Hopefully things with the network will bounce back soon though.

My car did pass inspection, which I am very happy about. I’ve had three cars, a Honda Civic with a blown headgasket that burned oil, a Subaru Legacy that needed a transmission and wouldn’t go in reverse, and my Chevy Beretta. There’s only little things wrong with my Beretta, like a leak in the frame, or windshield that I just need to get some silicon to fill, and the gas gauge is off by a quarter, other than that it is good. It’s lasted me a few years, and for the price I paid for it, I can’t say that it was a bad deal by any means, so I am very happy it passed inspection.

I realize the site hasn’t been updated, but I hope to rectify that soon. I have a lot of features coming soon that will be automatic, I just need to bang out how I am going to do it, since I don’t want everything to happen at once, I’d like to have updates happen throughout the day on their own, so I have to see about how to do that.

I Forgot to Add a Title to this Post

Okay so we have the money we wanted to have to go to Atlantic City. Right now we are over, which is good because we can get the car inspected and registered before we go down there. I still haven’t paid off Paypal yet, I am trying to get jobs outside my main job to pay that back. It’s working a bit. I have to call one client back, but my phone has been acting really weird lately so I am a little apprehensive about it.

I have a lot of ideas for my site, I actually wrote a bunch down last night that I eventually want to implement. One thing that has been ready to go for over a year is still stalled. I have to do a lot of inputting for it, so I have been putting it off. I plan on getting it done, maybe this weekend I will sit down and get a good head start on things, but it is just a bunch of inputting that it makes me tired just thinking about it.

I was also thinking about adding a news section. It would be an RSS off an AP site, but I am not sure how popular that would be. Let me know if you would be interested in having a news section here.

Still Owe PayPal

I still owe PayPal about $400 because Crushdollars AKA Troy Smith decided to screw me and a bunch of other people over and not pay us for the work we did. We’re not going to let that get us down for the trip to Atlantic City in a few weeks, but I guess I am going to have to pay them myself, hopefully that can wait until after we get back. I am trying to grab some extra work to help earn some money for the trip, but so far that is not working. I have a solid paycheck coming in though, so that isn’t so bad, but anything extra to get rid of the negative balance would surely help.

Speaking of the trip, we are going to be spending two nights in Harrah’s in Atlantic City and then two nights in the Comfort Suites (haven’t booked those rooms yet though) in East Brunswick, NJ. It will be a nice little vacation, but I will have a laptop with me to do work that needs to get done, so it wont all fun, but it will be fun regardless.

I am installing a bunch of updates rght now, iTunes, Safari, Quicktime, Remote Desktop Client, and Mac OS X update, hopefully none of these will break the system and render my printer useless, I spent four hours trying to fix the printer last night because of a firmware update broke it and I couldn’t print anything.
