2012

December 31, 2011

So I apologize for taking forever to update this. 2011 was one of those years where it seemed like I was constantly on the go. I still have no full time job but thankfully I’ve gotten some freelance writing gigs and other work to keep me afloat. It’s been a knuckle under and just get […]

Work & Non Work

January 22, 2011

I did not sleep well last night. Maybe it was the cold. Maybe it was because I looked around at the new cinema fare at the multiplex and cowered. Maybe it was because of the monster that lives under my bed. Anyway, I did some job search and resume stuff late last night before watching some […]

XMAS EVE

December 25, 2010

So it is Christmas Eve. I just walked home form work in a light blizzard. It was quiet & hardly anyone was out. I love it when it snows and it is quiet. it sort of emphasizes the holiday season without being obtrusive. I worked retail for the first time in over ten years this […]

Thursdayness

August 26, 2010

Not much exciting to report today. I went to the post office and sent off some packages. I think the USPS Priority Mail thingee where you shove loads of crap into a box for one price is a pretty good deal. Believe me I took advantage of it and crammed the daylights out of everything. […]

Used Bookstore Complaining & Finds

August 26, 2010

I went to the used bookstore yesterday. Normally I love used bookstores but on this day it was a pain in the ass. Why is it that when someone buys aused bookstore they get the bright idea to jack up prices. Plus things are always a chore to find. I like the wandering in a […]

This Here Blog

May 2, 2010

I have always been curious about blogs. I read them and know people who write them. So after lots of thinking and even more thinking I decided to do one myself. In addition to being an outpost for my work for needcoffee.com, ink19.com and sites like that it’ll also be a place where I can […]
