Poll Time

Okay, boys and girls, it's time for another, "Let's tell Folly what to do with her life." This involves my old house. Here's the deal. Since I lost my 6 figure job in February, I've been doing family law to keep going. The downside is that it doesn't pay jack. My old boss promise me 6 months of pay at $3k/month to do some research for him but I haven't gotten any new projects which means that little gig may be over.

Anyway, I'm behind on the rent and can't afford where I am. My thought is to move back into my old house since the bank can't figure out what to do with it and the IRS slapped a lien on it for $15k. However, my real estate agent is giving me shit over it, saying that if we don't sell it this month it goes back on the auction block in April.

So here's the poll: Should I move into my old house and hope they don't sell it out from under me or move on down the road and hope I can figure out how to pay rent?

California Bar Application

So I was looking at the California Bar Application yesterday (no, I'm not moving to Cali) and discovered that they allow crazy people to be lawyers there (go figure). In fact, here is a sample form from the packet:


Happy St. Patrick's Day

Yeah, yeah, it's late. Here's a song for you:

My Letter To God

Dear God:

I hope you read blogs. Sorry if I've offended you with anything I wrote. So, when's stuff in my life supposed to change? Seriously, I'm working my self to death and have little to show for it. Besides, didn't you already do this with Job? Granted, I haven't been to church lately so that's kinda of an "x" against me. However, I'm not genuinely a bad person.


I mean, you let the Red Sox win the World Series and the Lightening, the Stanley Cup and the Bucs, the Super Bowl. Do you suppose you could lighten up on me a bit? Make some good come my way. Oh, I'm not asking to win the lottery (I don't play anyway). Just make the junk ease up. 'Kay?

Oh and when are the Cubs going to the World Series? Please lighten up on them as well. You let the White Sox go. Um....okay.

Look, I'm trying the best I can. So if you could just cut me a little slack, I'd really, really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Folly
