Well...I'm about to get evicted. [View all]

Haven't been paid in six weeks. We had a huge job fall through at the last minute that would have got my dad's company back in black, at least for a bit. Losing that job will likely mean we'll have to shut down the business as well.
Now, unless I come up with 1225 bucks by Friday afternoon, I will have one month to leave.

Guess it's just a different sort of opportunity, I am not particularly fond of what the Keys has to offer anyway.

And no, I'm not asking for money. I will not accept any offers of such.
Just needed to vent.

Probably won't be online much starting real soon either, so it was nice getting to know all of you, and I will be back, posting music no one likes before you know it!

I'll check in when I can.

PEACE!
