Why the quiet and no new articles

So I said to my pencil the other day
Status update on life:
Visa no longer wants to wait for me to slowly pay off my outstanding balance in $200-$400 increments per month. So they're strong arming me into either paying the full balance up front or take me to court on the basis that I didn't opt to renew the card (so they could charge me service fees and extras every month and effectively negate my monthly payments.
Soooo I've got 6 days to figure out how to scrounge up $8,000 (they're saying $8,920 because their records don't reflect any payments since December @.@, I've got the frieking ATM slips confirming those payments)
Stress overload in a few words. Excuse me while I die.

Good luck, of course. If I could I'd go drop a flaming bag of dog poop on the front doorstep of Visa's Corporate offices. :c
Cause
I mean.. Usually they just sent a letter saying "You pay now or it goes to collections. Here is envelope. PAY." That was what my mother dug herself into. .__.
Still, I wish you luck, and I know you're smart enough to land on your feet.
They're trying that with me now.
They're terrible at hearing important details, though.
Things like, "I live in a homeless shelter. Find me, if you'd like." :)
