Make the pain go away
Written by Dan
We successfully closed our second loan today, which means the wheels are sufficiently greased and ready to roll. I wanted to take care of our Missouri Retail Tax number tomorrow, but the Department of Revenue is closed for Lincoln's birthday... and my throat hurts.
The only nice thing about pinching a nerve in your back is that the pain is so severe and all-encompassing that I haven't noticed any other aches or pains elsewhere in my body. And...
Not much else to say.
I met with another insurance agent today. As it turns out, it's very difficult to procure affordable insurance when your retrofitting an old building into a theater and you plan on selling beer and wine. Also, the fact that Nicole and I have no previous business experience doesn't help our cause as much as I had hoped.
When all of this ballyhoo is said and done - the theater opens, we're a huge success, and our lives fall into some sort of semblance of normality - I'm going to sit down and write a book about the entire experience. It shall be called, THE MOXIE, Or How a Young Married Couple Opened An Awesome Independent Movie Theater Without Prior Business Experience and Only $0.38 To Their Names and Became the World's Most Successful Entreprenuers. I even have the opening sentence committed to memory, which is where it will stay until I find the time to meet pen to paper.
That's my goal for 2006.
