On legality and other issues |11:02 AM|
I posted bond today. Not bail, bond, as I wasn't arrested. This was about as much fun as having teeth pulled by a team of spazming gorillas. After I got done pleading not guilty and signing a bunch of forms, it became clear that simply throwing money at this problem isn't going to make it go away. Later today, I'm going to call the Texas Bar, and see if they have any names to suggest for lawyers that deal in stupid crap like this. I've got about a grand or so that I can throw down that hole, because at this point I'm not going to replace any of the stuff that's falling apart in my house until I get this taken care of.
I was looking forward to replacing my bed of 4 years ($60? That's not bad for 4 years) as well as replacing my covers. Same as the old, I wanted Egyptian cotton sheets, and I had the cash.
No new computer hardware (duh) no new dishes.
When I mentioned all this to my co-workers while we were slaving away in the warehouse, Vid spoke aloud the very thing I was thinking.
"It's not like killing your wife, you can't pay to get out of it."
For chrissakes, this all comes down to some damn paperwork. I'm going to collect all the information I have, call the bar, get a lawyer, and end this. I've got a court date in January, but I actually feel pretty damn good for once. Every step I take nowadays is away from terrible financial burdens, legal troubles, and general mayhem. Despite the long wait until next year, and the life consuming printer roll out, I'm feeling pretty good. Well, other than the stomach discomfort I picked up this evening.
