My Blog Title was Taken
I've been putting off writing a blog for some time now. For a while I didn't think I had anything important to say. Other times I told myself I had more important things to do. But now I have a subject and a purpose for my blog. I intend to document my journey, my thoughts, feelings and (hopeful) success through a personal financial restructuring (the polite, corporate way of saying "I think I'm going to be filing bankruptcy.")
This blog will attempt to flush out how I got to this point in my life, what mistakes I've made, as well as the experience of correcting my situation and the lessons I will learn.
They say it takes 7 years to get a bankruptcy off of your credit report; and while I haven't yet decided that in-fact bankruptcy will be my vehicle through financial restructuring, it appears today that the dreaded "last resort" has arrived. So I was cleverly going to call my blog "7 years" (brilliantly simple, yes thank you). But some ass hole named Scott took the clever name of my blog in May of 2002 and hasn't done shit with it. The ironic twist of fate that my chosen blog name, "7 years" was taken from me 7-years ago (ACTUALLY, 7-years ago one day after my birthday!) is not lost on me and I will no-doubt have something to say about that in a future entry.
So for now, my blog is called "33 going on 40" because I, today, am 33 and if left to bankruptcy as my only option, I will be 40-years-old once it falls off my credit report. It's not nearly as catchy of a title but the way things have been going for me lately, I should have expected this social experiment to not start off the way I had planned.
