Day After My Birthday Update, Yes, the promised one...
17 years ago
General
Ok... now for the update I promised a few people, and an informant update for those who don't.
#1: As many of you know... My family owns a pizza restaurant. Our business is fluctuating, and we have been in a pickle for quite some time now. The place isn't and hasn't been making any money, and we still aren't despite how much effort we are putting into it. The family has gotten together and talked about this, and we all agree that we have worked out asses wayyy to hard to just give it up... and that leads to my next thing...
#2: A few months ago, my father mailed 2 checks to 2 different businesses. Widmer(Mortgage Company), and CapitalOne(Credit Card). Now... he made the mistake of switching the checks! So the check for 200 dollars was sent to Widmer, while the 1,800 dollar house payment was sent to CapitalOne! No harm done, right? They were both made out to the wrong businesses, so they can't cash them... right? Well... wrong. Somehow... some way... both companies cashed checks illegaly. ((Trying to sue takes far too long, and wastes money.)) So... now we're late on our payment for the home... so the monthly cost goes up! Our rates shifted because we were late, I believe... not too sure. Annyways... because of that... a Domino Effect began.
We were unable to cover next months payment in full... because it now cost 2,400 dollars. Being late on that payment, drove it up to 2,800 dollars! Mind you, that in this time, Pizza Club still isn't making money, so my dad is working a second job. Finally... we hit the bottom... and filed for Bankruptcy. We have lost the house, and are being kicked out in December... Heh... Merry Christmas. They also seized some of my stock, because it was an asset to my parents... (Mom had her name on my account.)
In a way, this is good... The house is falling apart, literally, and we live 45 mins away from out own freaking business. I will hopefully get a bigger room. (10x12 sucks for a guy like me) We were able to live in the house for virtually free, meaning no house payments, for 4 months. Unfortunately... we still have no clue where we are going to go... ^.^;;
#3: Phone... getting a new one on Saturday...
#4: Culinary School is temporarily on hold. Family asked me to stay and help... I agreed to do so. January 29th I have an Opened House and Interview at the CIA in New York, and I'm praying that I /WOW/ them. ^.^;; I need to get my ass away from this hellhole... Bringing me to my next thing...
#5: Despite all this shit going around in my life, I am still smiling, laughing, and loving life. Yeah... it's fucking hard, but I still have the people I love around me. (Including all you peepz) The stress in my family... god... it's nearly palpable... One little thing can set someone off, and we yell for 2 hours straight, letting it all out... I'm the peacemaker, running around asking everyone to stop... XP Whenever something like that happens to me, I just bottle up the anger... Is that bad? Meh... I would rather have peace in the household than 4 pissed off family members... I dun wanna get shanked... I would make a good beefshank...
#6: Sorry to all my close friends, with whom I /didn't/ share all this with... I just didn't want to worry you guys. I'm /fine/. Promise. A little worried... and a bit scared... but fine. A bit excited... Now that I'm moving closer to all my friends... but it's all good.
Thanks for reading... I guess... XD It was only meant as merely an update. When I get all the official dates and stuff, I'll post them up. You all know who you are when I say that I love you guys with all my heart. You rock, and have always been there for me. Being a fur is one of the biggest reasons why I can smile no matter what happens. ^.^
