so, I'm at work right now, it's a bit slow, so I thought I'd write a quick post.

Saturday night at work I got a call from one of the guest, they needed the toilet plunger.  I went up there and the good news was, there wasn't any "yucky" stuff, just water.  Bad news, after some plunging, I tried to flush it again and the damn toilet started to do a ( Read more... )

I don't know, I haven't post in a good while on this thing.  Some things have happened here and there, but truth is, I just haven't felt much like typing them out.  And when I do, I'm more inclined to post them over at the Badmovies.org message board than here, because I tend to get more responses that way.  I dunno ( Read more... )

Handy tip, when you're ahead in the finances section, don't think that you don't need to stay on top of things and keep close damn track of all your transactions, because when it comes to money "ahead" can become "behind" faster than you realize.

Long story short, I had less money than I thought I did and the recent visit to the dentist has put in ( Read more... )

My old monitor for my computer has been rather dark of late, making my hobby of video editing to be a bit of pain (can't tell if I need to brighten up the screens or if it's just MY computer.)  So, with my tax refund here I spent part of it to not only update my computer (the graphics card was starting to burn out and I decided to get more memory) ( Read more... )

So, here's the deal, my stepbrother couldn't get off work in December (expect on Dec 18, the day after we were coming back from our trip to Branson), so we're having a late family get together/Christmas celebration January 2nd (later this afternoon, in fact).  So, I went out a few days ago to get some Christmas presents.  Since I had some extra ( Read more... )

Remember earlier how I said I was having car problems?  Well, my car had been dying on and off again, so I'm guessing the problem was more than the battery.  Jim and Mom came home from their vacation and Jim looked at my car and couldn't figure out what was wrong, so he said he'd take the battery with him today and have some tests done.

As of ( Read more... )

Weell.. haven't posted much of late, been a bit busy with this and that, and couldn't really think of anything to talk about except the occasional "random thought"/tidbit type entry, but they seem to flit out of my mind just as soon as I think of them (for instance, I'm struggling to remember one of them I had earlier and it's just not coming to me ( Read more... )

Just to recap: I was wanting to go back to college this fall.  Signed up for two classes, but, since I already have a degree, I'm automatically disqualified from getting any sort of financial aid.  I filed an appeal, stating my case, how I was having trouble finding a job despite having a degree, and that some of the newer classes offered at the ( Read more... )

I've got money probs again.  Well, I guess not really problems per se, it's just I'm running LOW on money (thinking I've got about four dollars in my checking account and nothing in my wallet.  It's a good thing I'll be getting PAID this Monday.

Let's see.. got my phone/internet bill, need to do some shopping, and I'm going to TRY and put aside ( Read more... )

You like that title?  I love taking the opportunity to use "fifty cent" words like that.  :)

Okay, so, bit of an update, my ear is, I think, almost back to normal, although it still seems to be a bit less than 100 percent in the hearing range.  I hope I didn't suffer any permanent hearing damage or something from the infection.  I'll have to go by ( Read more... )
