(Untitled)
My failure was seeded pretty early on based on the facts. It is of course obvious now that I was unable to see it slowly rolling down the tracks before me.
After my mother was diagnosed with advanced leukemia in October 2002, I set everything aside and spent the next five months helping her to get to chemo and taking care of her during the day, and ( Read more... ) -

Office Depot??
Maybe someone else can explain the logic to me, I really don't see the angle here. I go into Office Depot last week, and I buy a few odds and ends for the office, and a big dry erase board.

Just threw my gear in the car, left the house when the assistant arrived, and headed for.. wherever I wanted. No racing to the office to put out a fire. Just a chance to get out and enjoy the weather. Got some food, drove around in ( Read more... )
