I am beginning to think that I'm not really good at anything, and that's not just my ex-girlfriend talking (you know who you are). After considering other possible careers, I don't think that I'm good at anything ( Read more... )

I may be late in my post, but nevertheless, I shall report on the actual reason why I was out at Davenport in the first place: to go to ACen ( Read more... )

Yep, the title says it all. I was robbed at bloody gunpoint. It happened at 1:50 AM on the way back to the apartment. There were six of us, and two black guys passed us, talking amongst themselves. Then all of a sudden, they turned around, pulled out guns and said, "This is a robbery, get on the fucking ground ( Read more... )

For the first time in my life, I filed my taxes. Yes, yes. Hooray for me. Other people have been doing it for much longer, and doing it the old fashion way (IE: without Turbo Tax). But apparently, yesterday (April 15th), some people weren't doing any last minuet tax filing. I'm talking about the historic TEA parties of 2009 ( Read more... )

Okay, so I might be a bit late on weighing in on the whole auto-industry-going-down-the-toilet posting, but since my job leans quite heavly on the health of the auto industry (and that I have been pondering over this for quite some time), I feel I've gotta put my two cents in ( Read more... )

So, as you can guess, an increase in pay would be a great help to me. And I would have ( Read more... )

Mainstream fastion has dictated that shorts that don't cover your knees are too...well, short. So, it's no suprise that the shorts that they supply for us at work expose our knees. When I began to wear the shorts, I was expecting ridicule, especially from Keith (who has left for greener pastures [good ridance]). But no guff. An old joke is shorts ( Read more... )

For the past few days, I have been getting calls and posts on my Facebook asking me if I'm okay, if I had to evacuate, and if I'm dry. Allow this entry to clear up all those questions ( Read more... )

I will say this about Keith (my new co-worker): he certainly is an interesting fellow. Whenever he gets bored, he likes to have fun with me, like asking if I would do something sexual for a any amount of money. (My response is always the same: no) However, he does like to have a serious conversation every once in a while ( Read more... )
