The oral surgeon says: "You need to have your wisdom teeth extracted. Your bottom teeth are impacted(ish) and your top teeth are showing signs of decay -- hence the cavity located in Quadrant One. Does Thursday work for you?"
I was so shocked by her need for speed that I agreed to have my cavity-ridden tooth taken out on Thursday. I need to cancel. And find out what my health insurance will cover where impaction is involved. And find out what my dental will cover if I were to have the top two (aka source of my misery) pulled. Oh bonus money, how I had such bigger plans for you.
CNN.com says: "The principal is not the only problem, it's also the interest you're accruing. If you have a $2,000 balance at a 14 percent interest rate -- and make just the minimum payments -- it will take you more than 14 years to pay off that debt plus the interest. Try to pay more than the minimum payments on your credit cards whenever you can."
A small reminder why zero balances are God.
