In my ongoing efforts to make more money, I recently signed up for several of those “pay to read email/fill out survey” sites.  First, I did some research on them, making sure they were legit sites and not just these ripoff “pay us to 'register' and get a bunch of info you could have learned on your own for free” type crap.

Here's how it's going so ( Read more... )

Well, past several days my lower back has been acting up.  Starts to jab at me when I'm standing for too long, which makes me feel a bit like a lazy bum, being that I can't stand up for too long.  What's worse is it's not just my back, the area on down my right leg also starts to bother me sometimes.  The spine is weird that way, get a hurt in a ( Read more... )

Okay, so several weeks ago I found myself low on shampoo, so I went to the store to buy some.  Now, being that I'm male (and straight) I don't really know a heck of a lot about shampoo other than it cleans your hair and said hair needs to be wet for shampoo to work most effectively.  Going over to my local Wal-Mart, I went into the hair care ( Read more... )

It's like 7:30 pm and I'm STILL awake!  That may seem "normal" for most of you, but keep in mind I work NIGHT shift (11 to 7:30) and I worked it LAST night, so I've been up since like, dunno 9:30 pm yesterday.  Normally I got to bed around 1pm or so.  I went to bed around five, but i just couldn't fall asleep, I was feeling hungry (and I CAN'T ( Read more... )

Okay, first up, I know it's been awhile, but usually I don't do too many entries on workdays.  When I get home after work, I usually just want to vegetate

Anyway, long story short, after traveling through a couple of small towns and making some turns I wasn't 100 percent sure where the correct ones, seeing about several hundred corn fields and a ( Read more... )

This place called The Wall Street Burger Shoppe has a burger that costs one hundred and seventy-five dollars.

Let me repeat that: a fucking HAMBURGER that costs $175 dollars.

What's really hilarious here is that they just recently RAISED the price from $150 so it could keep its record as the most expensive hamburger in the world.  Here's ( Read more... )

But, it's my day off, so I guess that's okay.  I'm going into work tomorrow for the store, then I'm going to the Hotel at 11pm and staying till-shoot, I think 2am, maybe?  Not sure-for training.  Feeling better, but don't think I'm completely over this stomach thing.  Think maybe I overdid it with dinner tonight.. maybe ate bit more than I should ( Read more... )

Man, I tell ya, Kiwi is a weirdass fruit.  I mean, you got this fruit and it's covered with a brown skin with coarse hair (I'll refrain from making a testicle joke here), and when you eat it, it tastes different depending on what part of the kiwi you're munching on.  (BTW, am I even supposed to EAT the skin?)  The outer part has a VERY tarty ( ( Read more... )

Okay, it's Monday, about 2:20 or so, haven't heard anything from the people.  Sunday I sent a brief "Thank you" email to Kelly, the girl who interviewed me.  Like I said, I'm trying to stay "neutral" in my emotions (not get too excited or too negative) but it's difficult as I REALLY want this job, and now all these little nagging thoughts of, " ( Read more... )

You know, I sometimes sell things on eBay, and, after seeing this I'm starting to think, "Heck, maybe I try too hard."  I mean, I've been selling silly stuff like toys, CDs, movies, games, clothes, etc, when perhaps I should ( Read more... )
