It doesn't matter where the money, it wasn't how she paid rent
Holy eff friends. Today was a great day. I really cannot emphasize just how awesome today was. Basically I spent the day in Olympia tagging along with the McDonalds owner/operator group that was lobbying the syrup tax, and ended up doing more networking than any of the mcdonalds folks. Basically this company of mine is set. I got a call yesterday saying that we have people interested in investing close to $50,000, which is what I need to finally launch *** *********. I'm amazingly excited. All the way home I just kept forming the plans for future plants and getting everything ready. Starting thursday I'll be beginning the process to make my presentation to the state for $6,000,000 for our new plant that we want to build next year. A 30,000,000 gallon facility. The recycling plant we're building now puts out 400,000 gallons. Do the math. I just can't believe how far we've come in these six months, and how much I've changed even. I mean, six months ago I was living in my apartment twiddling my thumbs trying to find something to do, here I am now networking with senators and people on capitol hill, starting up multi-million dollar companies, driving a dream car, and I have a beautiful woman who cares about me. I was content before, and I'm content now. It's just weird to think that earlier today I was shaking the Governor's hand and having her offer me resources to the company. I can't get into specifics of how the proposal will be done, but I will talk about one more detail today. When we had our meeting with our state representative (Dave Buri [R]) he took us through one of the buildings and onto the house of rep floor. This was an incredible honor, not even the governor is allowed on the floor unless she is escorted by one of the representatives. He sat my father down in his desk on the floor and we took a picture, should be in the mail tomorrow. I was extremely thankful of him giving us that honor and being so kind to us.
Been a long day and I could use some much needed sleep. I'll be back in Olympia the 3rd/4th to rally more support for the loan proposal. Seriously, with the plan I'm proposing, we should be first in line to get the money. Basically for my field, there's a 17.5 million dollar revolving loan being passed just for companies like mine. So with how much support I have from the house and senate, and a few other secret weapons, I'm pretty sure we'll get the first cut of $6 million. Crazy no? Anyway, I just want to sleep tonight and think about work on thursday.
Love you all.
