Shakin' it

The last week has been a blur - work's finally picking up, my extra curriculars are no longer dormant, and I have a posse. Yep, me. A posse. Don't fuck with this.

I spent much of the weekend laughing - Planet Booty at Blue Macaw on Friday, Lucha Libre on Saturday, and Sunday was just funny.

As for money stuff, I found out that Citi is allowing me to put my students loans in forbearance for 6 mos (private loans) and 12 mos (federal loans). During this time, I'll still be responsible for the interest, although I can have it roll over to the principle if for some reason I can't make the payment. Two years of grad school have taught me not to do that, though. I'll be paying off the interest.

I also grabbed a 0% interest credit card (for balance transfers) that I'll move some of my debt over to. I'm hoping that between my tax refunds, the temporarily reduced student loan payments, and better management of my finances, I'll be able to reduce my credit card debt by $10,000+ this year.

Wish me luck.

The weekend: $100 - groceries, Mexican wrestling, getting my groove on, bacon-covered donuts
