I had to come back to the city for my second PT test. It was supposed to be today, but no one else was at the track when I arrived. I’m not heart-broken because the temperature was absolutely freezing. You could freeze the balls off a brass monkey. I have no idea how I was ever more tolerable of cold temperatures. If this job works out, I’m ( Read more... )

My job ended on December 12th, so I packed up my apartment and moved “home” with my dad. I use quotation marks because I’m not really home. My dad wants this to be the year he moves to Eastman, or so he says. He and I have packed up some of his possessions and are now living in his hometown for the time being. I think I’ve mentioned this fact ( Read more... )

I hate dreaming. When I wake, I feel like I've been awake all night. It's like not getting any sleep at all. Last night, I dreamt I was running through one of those USMC/American Gladiators type obstacle courses. I woke up this morning flat out exhausted. Thanks alot, REM sleep.

My last day at work was on Friday, and I got a job offer from the *ahem* Demon Hunters on Saturday via a message left on my voicemail. I can’t tell if it’s God looking out for me or testing me. After all I went through to get to this point, I could never have imagined that I’d be having doubts. I told Dad on Saturday night, and he said he was ( Read more... )

The fact that so few people understand the Fair Tax is sad. What’s even sadder is that people with agendas capitalize on this ignorance. Namely, they capitalize on the misconception that the Fair Tax will raise the price of everything you buy by 23%. As boring as it sounds, I understand how important tax reform is, so I’m typing this in hopes to ( Read more... )

This is my first election. I've voted in the two previous presidential elections, but this is the very first election in which the outcome will directly impact my life, instead of filtering through my parents. Considering how polarizing politics can be as well as the mass euphoria surrounding Obama's supporters who insist he has the ability to ( Read more... )

First, I'll give some good news. I resolved the previously mentioned healthcare dispute. Really it was my fault. My initial provider changed names, albeit slightly, and sent me a new card, but I was under the impression that it was a entirely separate coverage plan. When I gave the office my insurance information, I gave them the cancelled plan ( Read more... )

I know I said I was going to start answering OD’s weekly theme question, namely as a means to ensure that I update regularly. Unfortunately, the following theme question wasn’t very answerable (it was “What is your favorite movie and why?”). It’s not a rant that really deservers writing about, but I don’t think it’s possible to have a favorite ( Read more... )

It seems I haven’t updated in a while. At least, that’s what it seems if you read my LJ and MySpace blog. I have posted more recently, but I kept my last entry private on those two sites; it was a very depressing entry that vented frustration (While down in Eastman, Dad overexerted himself exercising and injured his leg. Now, in addition to his ( Read more... )
