Well, in a little over an hour, it will be Christmas.  Not that it feels like it here.  Today was 82 degrees and tomorrow is supposed to be 83.  My dad was swimming in the ocean today, and all of our doors and windows were open ( Read more... )

Ok, so once I decided to move north, I knew I would have to change my tickets for my trip to Ukraine, essentially erasing the Florida - New York portion of travel.  Now, the difference in price on Thursday, when I called Delta, was about $230.  I talk to the customer (dis)service woman and she tells me that she's changed it and that I have a credit ( Read more... )

Well, as I will be here until January 4th (before I move to CT), I am accepting temp jobs from my old agency.  So today I got a call about a job on Tuesday which requires me to... wait for it.... push the buttons on an elevator for 8 hours.  For this woefully difficult task, I will get paid $10/hour.....  I was told to wear jeans and a t-shirt, and ( Read more... )

So, today is my second to last day of work.  I come in this morning only to find out we have no water in the trailer.  Why, you might ask... Well, the owner apparently didn't pay his water bill.  The owner also hasn't fully paid the contractor for work done in September...  Maybe it's a good thing this job is over for me ( Read more... )

My sister will be home in 28 days!  Yay!!!  I am so happy/excited!  Of course, give me a week or two of living with her again and I'll probably be singing another tune, but I do miss her.

It's ELECTION DAY!   So, get off your lazy butts and go vote (unless you're gonna vote Republican, then you can stay home).  Seriously, though, go out and let your opinion be known.  So many races are close this year and your vote WILL make a difference.
