Man: 1 Bank:0
So..last night I drove to Harper to see a guy named Patrick Combs. Patrick Combs told an audience about how he got a junk check for $95,093.35 for a get-rich quick scheme. The only catch was written on the check was Non-Negotiable in the left hand corner of the check. But he decided to play a prank on his bank, First Interstate Bank of California and he decides to deposits into an ATM.
The ATM cashed in the junk check. Patrick told the story of how things went down from there. The bank wanted their money back. The show was amazing and I was laughing all the whole way through.

If you want to read the whole thing..there it is. Since I can't describe the awesomeness of Patrick Comb's show..read it for yourself. DO IT! :)
I promised myself I would get off my lazy butt and look for a job today so thats what I'm doing this afternoon. Wish me luck!
Jordan is off to Michigan for the weekend but thats ok since I will hopefully see him Sunday when he gets back. Homework, studying for a test and running my ass off yay!
I still miss Jamie. But I will see him soonish. I still love him. What scares me more is that we talked alot about our future. What we will do together two to three years from now. I don't know why the certainty of it scares the hell out me. Or maybe it is not the certainty anymore. Or being scared.
It is the fact that I can see the future for the both of us is stretching before us. How much we have gone through and how much we still have to go. Is there a word in the English language for that?
I really should stop babbling and get on with my life. I promised myself..two hours ago I would go home and start applying for jobs.
but now I am a collector of random quotes...
cabbage?
"The Lord's Prayer is 66 words, the Gettysburg Address is 286 words, there are 1,322 words in the Declaration of Independence, but government regulations on the sale of cabbage total 26,911 words." -From an article on the growth of federal regulations in the Oct. 24th issue of (National Review)
I hope you all are well. I will write later. I have a test a Sociology test on Monday wish me luck studying for it!
