Wow, got to love all the positive energy on this forum! Definitely go for this, you can totally tackle it down. But you need to decide what's really necessary. After that, take all the money you have left over and pummel into your debt. If you don't have any money left over, a good question to ask yourself, is like Steve says: How can you create more value?
Once you have some free money, this is what you can do.
If you don't want to consolidate, get a lower interest rate credit card (if you don't want to leave your own I'm told you can up your card company and say you'd like to go with another company, but first you want to see if they can best their offer). A good one would be a 0% interest if you can get that... make sure the normal rate after that is not too high. Then switch your balance over to that card. You probably won't be able to get everything on there. But you can make high payments on the low interest card and low payments on the high interest card. Once you finish the low interest card, keep transferring your high interest card money to there.
Good luck! It's definitely, definitely doable.
