Smatterings
I don't remember when these are from, but they were done between the last entry and now, while i was at work, and are probably incomplete.
Ya know, the great thing about social networking, is that you can tell that people's lives arent as miserable as they make them seem. I have a friend... He is a cool guy, but trys to take more credit than he deserves. His mom bought him a house, which he claims is his. He pays the mortgage, but he didn't buy the house. And all i've ever seen him do is obsessively play video games. He's been out of work for like 6 months because he has crons, which is fine. But i've been over there while he was too sick to work, and he is yelling and screaming, and playing video games, and running around, and dating etc. So I find it hard to believe that he is too ill to sit at a desk and answer phones for Cox. And now he's mad, because he is losing his job because he's been out on disability for 6+ months. No offense, but what did you expect. A company can't afford to have employees that only come into work once every few months. sick or not... You shouldn't have exploited your disability to not work for a long time. And how are you suprised that you don't have a job. I know it sucks. And it's not anyones fault that you are sick. But if you are gonna whine? Whine that god hates you and you are too sick to hold down a job. Not that the company won't bend over backwards to accomidate you. I get pissed at things, and I whine, but at least I get pissed at the right things.
So I haven't had the chance to mention it yet, but here is an example at getting pissed at the right thing. God hates me, and sent a biblical flood, to wipe out my house. Twice. March 14th we got 4 - 5 feet in our basement. And then 2 weeks later, after a new heating system had been put in, and we repaired my washer and dryer, we get another one, that covers the whole basement and up to my kitchen counters on the first floor. Thats like 15 feet of water, it is unimaginable how much fucking water that was. I swam out to the house as it was approaching the first floor, and saved my electronics, but my living room furniture was ruined. I think I made out pretty good though, my kitchen set is ok, and my washer and dryer wont last as long, but they are working as well. FEMA gave me $1675, and I am staying with Jeff and Debbie for free till its finished, which will be at least 2 months from the flood. I am using it to my advantage though, and I am buying a new car with the FEMA money, and the money i am saving on living costs. I should be able to finish everything up this week. I am getting a brand new 2010 Ford Escape, and I qualified for the 0.0% financing, which is super awesome. I am going back tonight to finalize everything. Hopefully I will be selling my car in the next day or so too.

I really find myself wishing I have been journaling more. I want to, I just am never in the mood to actually sit and write. Even now I bet I will cut this shorter than I intended it to be.
In a followup to my last entry, I did get the Escape with the 0.0% financing, which is really good. I love it. Really glad I spent the extra 600 on the sun/moon roof and the Microsoft Sync system. I can control my music and radio with voice commands, as well as ask the car for diagnostics, weather, directions, phone numbers, make and receive calls, even get stock quotes and my horoscope. It's awesome. I haven't named it yet. It needs 2 names... One for the nice normal voice that most of the voice commands respond with, and one for the angry lesbian voice that gives me directions.
