I work in a building between two gas stations. We are sitting here, watching them change the prices of gas. This week, I have watched the price go from $2.53 on Monday to $2.79 yesterday. That's 26 cents in two days. But today we have watched them change the price 3 times in 5 hours. It's now over $3.00 a gallon ( Read more... )

Today is a bad day for me. It's one of those days when I really need to not be around people at all.

Asthma is the worst.

I hate summer.

Yesterday after I got home from work, I sat down for a little quality time with the old tv set. Nearly every commercial break on whichever channel I was on played commercials for an upcoming movie called "The 40 year old virgin". Now, the premise of this movie is pretty obvious. And this kind of thing is really starting to make me mad ( Read more... )

Yesterday my brother got an email from Robert Jordan. He was emailing a friend and got a couple of letters in the address wrong and ended up sending the message to my brother. My brother asked him who he was and he told him, I guess expecting my brother to recognize his name, which he didn't. My brother said he sounded amazed that Forrest didn't ( Read more... )
