A few things have happened since my last entry.

First and foremost, I should mention NRI. They have cancelled the delinquency of my account. All I have to do now is resume my regular payments, which is certainly a godsend. This leaves me a lot of room to work in, and I'm going to make good on it.

I have my acoustic. I mentioned to Bert that “Art has this nice guitar he wants to sell me real cheap.” I wondered aloud if Lo would let me borrow the money to get it, and, much to my surprise, she wound up doing just that. I'm locked into an agreement to pay $25 a week on it, but that's a hell of a lot better than the damned thing staying at Hames which I paid what little I could on it when I could. It sounds great. About all I've done since getting it yesterday is play.

I'm going to see Carmen tonight. More than likely we're just going to watch movies and maybe call out, if we don't decide to go somewhere after all. As I've said before, its nice to get out.

Damn. There was something else.

Oh!I've re-joined the Prodigy service. As usual, I tend to knock around on it longer than I should, but the novelty is beginning to wear off. I contacted a lady named Elizabeth Everson, whom I talked to the last time I was online, and we've resumed our discussions on music and things related. I've also gotten back in touch with Kris. She more distant than I might like, as if she's still a bit angry, but she writes. That's something. Makes me wonder what I've got waiting for me on Delphi. Kris says she didn't leave me any mail on Delphi, so I assume that its either all from Faith or some of my online friends wrote, wondering what had happened to me.

Speaking of which ...

I think I'll be able to go ahead and pay off Delphi now that NRI is off of my back. There is at least $180 on the schedule which was allocated for NRI that can now be spent on something else. Britannica comes to mind, but I want to close out Delphi and Faith. There's a part of my life which has been left incomplete, and that resolution lies within those four unknown messages which were left on the service.

Oh, well. I suppose I should go. I have to take a shower and get ready. And I still have to find something to wear.

In conclusion, I have to say that things are looking up. I feel good for a change and its beginning to look like I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Let's just hope its not a train.
