Dear Stranger,
So in an attempt to finally build credit I got this car. A 2020 Dodge Challenger SXT. My favorite color is orange and I’ve loved American sport and muscle cars since I was little and my parents had this 1972 Corvette string ray in burnt orange. I loved that car so much.
This one is a base model. It’s better on gas than the v8’s obviously and doesn’t put me into deep debt like a challenger scatpack wide body red eye would. Though I’d be happy to have one. Lol
Hopefully this car and it’s manageable payments drive me to a good enough credit score to maybe buy a house in a year or two. If I’m responsible and work hard I might even get to have the house and the red eye one day.
It’s kind of funny I want to buy the Arri Alexa LF camera and a couple of their lenses for it. One of the Arri lenses alone cost as much as this car does. So instead of three lenses I’ll have to settle for two plus the camera. The camera costs something like 70-90k alone.
I’m grateful to have managed to get both my FFS (45k) and this car (30k) in the same year. However, they’re just things or steps towards my goals. Some being more frivolous then others. I suppose that’s what it means to manifest an individual’s character into their unique story.
The apartment I have is too big. I don’t really like it and it’s expensive for the area. I’d like to downsize but my little brother and his partner want to move in in April to get away from Milwaukee. I’d like to save them from the lack of opportunity back home but it just means I’m going to have to keep on doing the heavy lifting in a place I’m not really into.
Maybe there will be a two bedroom opening up at one of the apartment buildings on the strip. I just want to live in the heart of a bustling metropolitan area again with tons of people, shops and walk ability. I’m almost willing to move back home to milwaukee just to have that sort of community again.
My surgery had a hopefully minor complication. I won’t expand on it but it’s frustrating. I go to San Fran next week to get a diagnosis from the doctor. Hopefully he doesn’t need to open my face back up again. Recovery was painful. Though I didn’t complain too much or let it show... it really hurt.
Either way, gotta get back to work. Been avoiding it for a little too long again. Sorry bout that.
Love,
The K-monster
