The best update yet!

Every Monday through Saturday around 2:00pm, the mail flies in through the slot in the front door and crashes to the ground. And every day, no matter where she is in the house, my dog hauls ass to the front door to bark at this unwanted intruder. The past couple weeks, I've been hauling ass right behind her, excitedly awaiting one piece of mail in particular. Well, that piece of mail has come. Check it out:

Need a closer look?

Hell yes!

The loan is totally paid off! Look at that balance. $0.00! You can just see the weight that's been lifted off my mom's shoulders, and it is 100% because of you guys. I hope you all take the time to congratulate yourselves for being awesome, 'cause you are. 

[Note] In a P.S. I'm calling Health Watch 2011: I've been sick. On Hyperbole and a Half's better pain scale, I'm at about a three right now.

"3: This is distressing. I don't want this to be happening to me at all."

It's really been slowing me down, especially when I was closer to a seven ("7: I see Jesus coming for me and I'm scared."). Hopefully I'll slide all the way down to a zero really really soon ("0: Hi. I am not experiencing any pain at all. I don't know why I'm even here.") In the meantime, please forgive me for any delay in responding to messages and whatnot; I've either been unconscious or been wishing I was unconscious. In fact, I'm so out of it, it took me two hours to write this post.
