debtless

so i'm positively erumpent with joy and therefore feel the need to share with you the news that i passed through a pretty important moment in any person's life today: i paid off the last of my student loan. that, coupled with the fact that i'm ridiculously scrupulous about carrying credit card debt, means that i have absolutely no debt right now. completely non-beholden. free. another way to look at it: if i were to die tomorrow, no one would care. i can now view with unfettered scorn that big stupid national debt calculator on sixth avenue. going forward, i will also have $200 more to spend each month, something i hadn't thought about until just now.
it's a good feeling. anomalous in these irresponsible times, especially for someone of my age. so i guess i'm "better" than most people. livin the high life.
