      Sure, I could do with a spare...can you do a bulk deal for a liver too?

      Need some more server funds, or something worse?

        something a little worse.
        Planned house move end of Dec/Jan which was under budget (few big bills right now that clear up and leave me with plenty spare in a few months)
        move has been moved forward, moving in about 2 weeks, which puts me about $1k missing for next month.
        I will bounce back soon enough, just everything hitting all at once is blowing me outa the water.

          Ok, I'm O- (the best of course). What group are you?

          Good luck with it all. Time for a 0% CC maybe?

            don't have them here as such, purchases are 0% if you pay back the full amount the following cycle.

            look into debt consolidation loan I think. I want to loose one of the CC's anyway.

              That's how I generally work. I have only ever paid interest by accident. It bugs me that even if you pay say 50% and then the balance a few days later, you still get hit for a full months interest on the full amount, but I guess I can understand it.

                see that is the downside with them here, we either make the choice at purchase time to pay in one hit, or select the amount of months we pay it over.
                I get a bill about 10 days before its due, telling me how much for the month. repayment is inflexable. direct deduction from account, so paying more or less is a PITA etc etc.
                Basically I just got caught out with the payment cycle with something else large comming up and just having some trouble getting it all back on track.

                  Kidney? D-e-e-licious! I get them for free, though, from the local butcher (Cypriots do not eat them, so the butchers usually just throw them away, even lambs' kidneys). I often have a couple of lambs' ones, either alone or with mushrooms, fried in extra virgin olive oil to just until the exudate loses its pink colour, salted, peppered and lightly sprinkled with dried herbes de Provence, on a slice of toast for my lunch snack on Saturdays. Fit for a king!

                    I haven't eaten organ meat in years. I used to like liver. I had a great recipe for chicken liver with swiss cheese and onions. I liked it.

                            I dunno. Dan is both immunocompromised, a heavy drinker at times, AND a resident of the immediate Tokyo environs. That doesn't bode well for any kidney donation.
