So I went to the interview today, I got there about there about half an hour early, just to make sure I wasn’t late by not finding the place.  I walked around for a little while, since the guy; “Doug” wasn’t ready for my test yet.  Test… Yes I had to take a personality test as well as this simple math test.  During the coarse of the ( Read more... )

So today started off alright.  Got up, took a shower, all that jazz.  When I walked into the kitchen I found a map with the keys for Barb’s car, she wanted me to go apply at some places down the road somewhere.  I had planned on taking the bus to the shopping center to put in some applications today ANYWAY, so I figured I might as well just do it ( Read more... )

 
           So today I started off my day with a trip to church!  Oh happy day!  My aunt asked me to go, and because she’s been so fricken awesome I didn’t want to upset her so I went.  It was a Lutheran service which reminded me of a mix between catholic and a Baptist service.  Catholic because there was kneeling and you ate the ceremonial rice ( Read more... )

 So I wake up today at like 8:00 out of habit form my old man waking me up, but it was of my own accord this time. I saw pop head outside, so I walked outside to have a smoke with him. As we were sitting there, chit-chatting Judy comes outside wanting pop to come in. The toilet had screwed up somehow and it was overflowing. So pop and I worked on ( Read more... )

When we hit Maryland stopped at a rest stop because Judy said her leg was bothering her.  When we got out she said it was completely numb.  So then we did some exercises, right there in the middle of the parking lot.  She was a little embarrassed, but of course I didn’t care.  I bet it would have been pretty funny to see this fat kid doing ( Read more... )

The only thing that sucked is that we were on the road for about 3 hours today.  Judy has bad back problems because of some accident she had as a teenager apparently, and she can’t ride for very long apparently.  So we started looking for another RV park.  We found this Yogi Bear place which apparently are like a chain.  Judy said they were ( Read more... )

When we got there, we still had a while to wait since the guy had to run to Greenville to get the tires we needed, so dad and I took the Thunderbird to the local mall, to hit up a Radioshack, dad needed a UHF connecter to do something with the T.V. or something other another.  Anyway, while on the way I thought about much Anderson reminded me a ( Read more... )

I wake up somewhere outside of Atlanta.  We've apparently already stopped at a gas station where my dad got me a Mountain Dew, good timing too, I was thirsty.  As I look up my father is looking intensely at the road, a nutty buddy in one hand, a Dr. Wham!  (Dr. Pepper rip-off brand.) in the other.  Abba Gold is blaring, we've just hit Atlanta ( Read more... )

     The only home I've ever really known is Alabama.  For nearly twenty-one years I've lived in this place.  Eighteen of those years I spent in a quit town called Highland Home.  As much as I hate to admit it, I'm more of a country boy at heart then I tell myself.  I remember spending plenty of my time running about in my back yard as a boy, bear- ( Read more... )
