there's more where that came from...
my lame attempt at a copycat of Meredtih_Farmer's walkaway...
lessons learned in the process:
- our tracks aren't nearly as reflective... in fact, the just plain aren't. (Meredith, did you shine yours first?)
- I have little to no balance, and I used to be able to do a cartwheel on a balance beam, what-the?
- for some reason it's cool/romantic to go hang out on a picnic table by the powerstation (not by the river, not even by the tracks... on the awkwardly placed picnic table)... and not at all intriguing to see a girl walk out of her car, to the tracks, set her camera on said tracks, and proceed to take a kajillion pictures of herself... and possibly talk to herself in the process!
- train tracks are greasy (my poor GorillaPod) even for that split-second when you forgot this obvious fact!
- it's easy to forget photographic intentions when their location is only blocks from your house... you may find yourself on auto-pilot, and have to turn around along the way!
- I want to try this UrbanAcid everyone is using/raving about!
- I need to "get out" more.
...enough already!

I'm often amazed at who can, and then in turn, who can't seem to get their hands on loans... young students, heading into college, and just barely starting out lives of possible responsibility, are often handed credit cards, and various loans to accommodate their new living arrangements or needs. With, or without much regard to the fact that they've barely established themselves economically... one way or the other.
there's more where that came from...
While I know there is a need to start out somewhere, I too often see folks (including myself) who have acquired so much debt due to these circumstances, that they suddenly find themselves needing the learn how to consolidate debt... to dig out of a pile of debt they've created. That, or... as times progresses, and they finally get to a place where they want to build or buy a home, obviously requiring money they don't have at their access! At that point, their only/best option may be a some sort of bad credit loan... which are greatly risky for everyone involved, as their history doesn't necessarily prove them worthy of the loan to begin with, but a bank will risk that, in exchange for a higher return? *sigh*
In the end, I'm torn. Due to medical bills, and a bad choice years back, I'm left with some cruddy credit myself. Eventually I would like to have my own home with any future husband. I often wonder what sort of unsecured loan I could, or even would be able to get... Let's pray my man has better credit than I do, and/or we find one of those banks willing to take the risk, realizing my mistakes are long past... and I've grown muchly since then!
