"The Florida Project"
So far the move to Florida looks like it might be around mid-March of 2009. We have $700 saved up so far and at this rate, mid-March is the earliest we'll have the $10k we decided would be a decent amount to move down with -what with the moving truck, motels, gas, food, etc on the drive down. We'll also need enough for an apartment when we get ( Read more... ) -
shit that's been happening lately
So, the whole Marines thing is off for now. At least until I can lose the weight, and then I'll go back to the recruiter. I've realised that I need to start hardcore dieting and excercising if I want to make it in the Corps ( Read more... ) -
to move or not to move...
I just got an email from my step-mom last night. It basically said that I would have a place to stay if I decided to move to Florida with Ria. It wouldn't be permanent, obviously...just a place to stay until we found our own place. We finally have a way out of here. Now it's just a matter of getting our shit together up here and packing up, ( Read more... ) -
need new job...
I am starting to think that I might want to start looking for a new job. The job I have now is easy, and the money is decent, but the hours suck. The job itself kind of sucks, too. It is without a doubt one of the most pointless jobs that I've ever had. I know that I can't just up and quit without having a plan. I know that I have to be an ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Caring
Who do I care about most in my life...? Most people would probably say their family, or something to that effect. For me, though, the person I care about most in my life is Ria. I love her with all my heart and soul. I lost her once because I was too fucking stupid to realise what a terriffic person she is and what an awesome girlfriend she had ( Read more... ) -
funny, but frighteningly accurate...
Little Johnny goes to his dad and asks, "What is politics?" Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way. I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me Capitalism. Mommy is the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you The People. The nanny, well, consider ( Read more... ) -
Writer's Block: Choose a Power
Well, if I could teleport anywhere, then I wouldn't have to be able to fly. It's really a choice between that and being invisible. I think I would definitely choose the teleportation ability. If something goes wrong, it won't matter if someone sees me, because I could be gone in the blink of an eye. -
Writer's Block: Comebacks
A truly awesome comeback: "So's your old lady!" ^_^ -
work-related rant...
This night is just turning out to be a stressful night. There are very few things at this job that can stress me out, as it is a fairly simple job. Here's a brief rundown of tonight's aggravations:
1)The lights were on - again...it is the job of the 2nd shift guard to turn them off. He never turns them off, no matter how many times I speak to the ( Read more... ) -
