"Wilson surveyed his surrounding---a panorama of broken, burning wagons and shattered cannon, made small by distance, and cries of far off wounded men carried eerily over the battle field wind. Viewing the wreckage it was not easily discernible who had actually won the little skirmish; Opposition soldiers seemed to lie dead in equal numbers to ( Read more... )

Drove to Canton, MI with Tekoa yesterday to help his mother move. Not a thing was packed and the truck was not ready, but that was cool. We'd cope---the three of us went to pick up the truck. Drama ensued. It ended with the U-haul manager refusing us service and throwing Ms.Cooper's deposit on the ground at her feet. In the end we got a truck ( Read more... )

Just got off work---busy, busy, so many intakes. Criminals all. Saturday went out with housemate Fasil and Tekoa's crew. Very interesting discussion about Pakistani Fasil's friendship with Indian-born Joe (another housemate) Their countries have fought three wars all due--in the end--to the British empire arbitrarily drawing boarders on a map ( Read more... )

Went out to Tekoa celebrating his graduation last night. All was well until I stormed out of the bar when he refused to drive me home, calling a cab for me instead. I walked home and ( Read more... )

This is that thing the lady at the BBQ was telling us about. Sounds very fun...and tantalizing, knowing that I can never, ever be admitted. The controversy over not allowing transgendered individuals seems to have tainted it, though. It makes me recall how our Men's group at the Unitarian Church wasn't willing to exclude females from the ( Read more... )

Expecting I'll hear the final word from KPEP this week. Also got a letter to do some pre-hire testing for that public safety dispatcher job. In the meantime, I got a job with a temp service, which promptly put me to work in a factory outside of town. The factory manager offered to pay me under the table instead, saving them some money and paying ( Read more... )
