Permanent
It's official. As of yesterday I am a permanent employee at Turkey, LLP. I am officially a real person* again.
I need to pay off my debts. According to the judgment from Small Claims, I owe 9am a chunk of change. Less, much less, than he sued me for, but still. I owe my parents money. Last time they were in town, my dad said as far as he's concerned, I should pay off the "official" debts and pay him back last.
There are wedding and baby presents to be bought. There are so, so very many people I want to take out to dinner for all their support. And by "out to dinner" I mean "to Hawaii for a two-week vacation."
One of my priorities is to move out of my apartment. Right now I am tentatively thinking about trying to make that happen after the summer is over.
I'm going to find out if I should be paying 9am through the courts. I want to pay him once and be done with it, and I may have to pay interest, so I'm going to deal with this debt first. Then I will pull my credit report and pay off debts based on that. My hope is this will all be done within a year.
In other news, Turkey found the check the client gave him. It was in one of his briefcases, and he found out standing like 15 feet from me. Also, today he called my cell phone after I'd left work at 5:30. Twice. Both times for things he should have been able to figure out himself. One time for something that could have waited until tomorrow.
*I don't mean that if you don't work you're not a real person. I mean that when I don't work, I have no money and can't participate in life like a regular person does.

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! CONGRATS!
YES! So happy for you, yes yes yes.
CONGRATULATIONS! *happydance*
Hooray!! Did you get a judgment from the amount you owe 9am or can you negotiate and pay him less?
Good luck. Paying down debt is hard but rewarding. I've been doing the "snowball" approach and I love knocking those little debts off. The law school debt... I'll be in a walker when I finally knock that sucker off.
YAAAAAY!!!!! I am soooo happy for you! If I didn't live 2000 miles away, I'd take you out for a celebratory dinner.
Discovering the check in his own briefcase with a witness so he can't blame it on anyone else? Hilarious.
Congrats!
YAY!
YES! (Imaginary fist bump)
