Well, once again my bad credit is biting me in the arse. I have been trying to move out into another apartment with a new roomate (I'm sure she's tired of the couch) and it has been a no go. I have been turned down by one place, and the second place I applied to is dragging their feet on getting back to me on whether or not they are willing to work ( Read more... )

My vacation to Washington was great. Planes, trains and automobiles all the way. Well, except for the train part. When I made what I thought was a reservation with Amtrac to take a train from Seattle to Eastern Washington, I was told that I was actually riding a bus when I got there. The trip over wasn't so bad, but I didn't like it so much on the ( Read more... )

Well I am flying off to Seattle tonight for Christmas vacation, it should be fun. I will be seeing a lot of family for the first time since this summer at my dad's funeral, and that will be nice. I will also be taking a train ride through the mountains. That should be interesting. I started thinking about that movie "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles ( Read more... )

I am still coping with the loss of my dad, and it hasn't been easy, but then I didn't expect it to be. I still don't think that I have completely accepted it, and probably never will. I have received much great advice and some lovely things that people have said, but it hasn't dulled the pain completely. I feel great sorrow at the fact that when I ( Read more... )

I usually listen to 98 Rock here in Sacto daily, and today one of the callers called in with a very interesting question/comment. He had moved here from Washington State, and wondered why everyone that he's come across in Sacto is a raving meany. He said that this is the most horrible place that he has ever lived. I have heard many comments like ( Read more... )

I get to drive to Oregon on Sunday to pick up my older son, and I am so exited! His dad and I have agreed to meet there because it's a half-way point for each of us basically. We are meeting in Eugene. He lives in Tacoma and I am down here in Cali. I see that it's going to be at least a 6 hr trip each way, which I am sure that I will survive ( Read more... )

I drove to Berkley this weekend with a bunch of friends and we saw some lovely gals called "The Wailin' Jennys." Very good bunch of singers. I had a really great time. Before that, we stopped and had dinner at an Irish pub called Becketts, and had some bangers & mash. Wonderful stuff. Sunday, I laid around as I am wont to do on a Sunday from ( Read more... )

I love the wonders of technology. I have been living broke for the past week, and was so exited that today was payday. I also have automatic deposit, with which I thought it would have gone through by now. I even took the trouble to ask a friend at work who banks at the same bank I do how early hers went through and was told that it shouldn't be a ( Read more... )

Was just reading an article about something really weird that the Japanese have invented: Ink-jet makeup. Talk about something different. Here's the short article ( Read more... )
