This country has it priorities bass ackwards.  If you don't agree with me, give me a second to explain.

I've been watching tv more recently and keeping up on the news, specifically stuff dealing with our economy and how bad it is getting.  Yes the country is falling into a recession.  Maybe not right this second but it is on the horizon whether we ( Read more... )

I'm a bit at a crossroad right now. First thing, my internet just came back on (it went out in the middle of our raid tonight) and it's bound to go out again in a few as we have more storms rolling through the area. I hope we get a break in the weather too, its been awefully hot here lately and I don't think I can take one more day of it ( Read more... )

Being in Aburn Hills last night was a bit of a change in pace.  I've never actually been there before (which is strange having lived in Michigan all these years) and going to an Irish pub was different too.  My g/f's good friend wanted to drive out to somewhere in Brighton to look at some make-up  and possibly a job change.  That means I was going ( Read more... )

I woke up this morning to probably the loudest display of lightning and thunder that I have ever witnessed.  Doing the whole one second, two seconds, you could pretty accurately tell that the storm was two miles away, then one, then directly overhead (at which point it started raining like crazy and I realized that my car windows weren't exactly up ( Read more... )

I really don't feel good today...thats about the extent of it.  I'm starting to wonder if its something I ate (or something that I didn't eat due to the lack of meals yesterday).  It could be that I haven't slept much if at all as well.  Whatever the reason I couldn't (read: actually couldn't physically do it) get out of bed today when I wanted to ( Read more... )

Right now I feel as if i'm wasting time.  There is not much I can do right now except wait for phone calls back on a few jobs that i've gone for.  Even though the prospects are good, it still feels like i'm doing nothing.  I keep thinking that I could be doing more but I probably shouldn't pester the living crap out of prospective employers for the ( Read more... )

Twising your back is never a good thing. Its even worse when it turns black and blue at some point and you have to spend the rest of the afternoon/evening lying on your stomach with an ice pack on your back. I was going to end up playing warcraft all night until I passed out but the authentication servers are not working so I can't log into the ( Read more... )

I feel dizzy and yet I shouldn't. There's no reason to be feeling this way...I didn't eat anything weird...I didn't do anything weird or smash my head against something. No reason I should have fallen down today or lost my balance. Its starting to get me worried. The unknown is something I don't deal with very well. I don't like not knowing ( Read more... )

It was nice to be at the pond again remembering old times and things that we've done over the years together. Weird to have other people there that I haven't know as long. The late night bonfires were an absolute blast. Our "parental supervison" back then pouring gasoline onto an already huge fire and then coaxing people to jump over it. ( Read more... )
