All thanks to God for getting through this past year healthy and pray for another wonderful, opportunity filled year in 2009.
Hope you all have a great one.
Well some Black Friday ignorance popped off and it just reinforces why I’m glad I drag my butt out there. You would think considering we are in a recession people would be laying low with the finances and trying conserve, but I guess that’s not the American way.
To think that people trampled over this young man (he was only in his 30’s), to get to some shit that they are going to stand in line all night next year to replace is sad and pathetic.
Breaking down the doors to get into Walmart? Savage indeed.
Well I hope your turkey was moist and delicious. Today was great because it’s been a long time since I have had a paid vacation! It was wonderful to spend the day lounging and catching up.
I decided to save my money and not do Black Friday, while in addition saving my sanity,LOL! My sister is sitting outside Best Buy right now trying to get hands on a $350 laptop. Asked the crazy girl what was she going to do if she didn’t get that particular laptop. Would she get the slightly more expensive one? Of course she copped that infamous attitude and said no, which means that she would have stood in line for six hours and walked away with nothing. She is so silly, but also my little sister. What can I say?
Suprisingly, I didn’t really eat much this time around. Food just didn’t seem very appealing and my granny decided to change up her sweet potato recipe, which just threw me totally off. She didn’t mess with that pie recipe though, so my day ended sweetly.
I got this in the early afternoon in my work email:
“Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, “WooHoo, what a ride!!”
Well life has been going slow. I swear I must one of the boringest people in the continental United States!
I addition to the California economy slowing down, the Missouri economy is lagging also and it looking like might be on the road to losing my job. If not this year, in April. I’m thinking of just saving my next two checks and just making a go of LA and see what comes up.
Right now I’m looking at temporary rentals in Cali, so I can find an apt and a job. I don’t think I have anything to lose so what the hell.
Besides, the weather in LA is 82 today. Can you imagine? In November?!
I casted an absentee ballot and now am working the polls at Dewey Elementary. Great turnout!!! Go Vote!!
Forgot to say, this yea I am participating in a November tradition, National Novel Writing Month. The goal is to write 50,000 words in 30 days. I won’t post my novel here, LOL, but I will be keeping track on my NaNoWriMo user page. I’m not going to worry about editing and I have a vague idea of my subject, so this should be interesting.
IW asked about me so I wanted to let everyone know I was still here. I’m officially banned from the Internet at work and blogging from my Tilt was difficult. I got an iPhone and it actually has a wordpress app which makes it much easier to blog. I’ll also be able to read blogs too.
I’m still looking for a job in LA, which due to California’s economy, is proving to be very difficult. I decided to broaden my search to southern California and Texas (which is still booming). Other than that, things have been slow! LOL! Trying to get out of here!!
