Month: January 2007
It’s all mine
Or at least it will be when I get the title in the mail. I made my FINAL car payment tonite after work. AND … the lady I talked to said that she spoke with her supervisor and the late fee that had been on my account was going to be removed. Since I had … Continue Reading

I hate shopping
