*whew* it feels good to pay the bills.

well, not really but... sort of. i have tons of past due medical bills and since i've been "hiding" money from my girlfriend i figured i'd better put it to good use and do something well... USEFUL with it. so i've been taking all of these stupid hospital bills and stuff to work with me (the ones that i usually throw away without even opening, lols!!) and logging into my checking account and sending off $10, $15, $25, $50 checks to each of them depending on how much i owe in order to cut the debts down little by little. hopefully i'll be able to wipe some of these out before they start to garnish my paycheck again. actually, i've already been able to completely clear three of the little ones and cut two of them in half :) (but then there's the ones that are in the thousands of dollars that i haven't seen in awhile... those will probably begin to be garnished pretty soon...) but hey, i'm making an effort and that should count for something, right?
