I never did end up seeing Twilight in theaters; somehow something always interfered and any plans to see it got smashed to bits. While I was up at Wal-Mart last night I saw a display of Twilight dvds. Since I did enjoy the series and, in my opinion, the first book was definitely the best [...]

I saw a horrific and frightening sight earlier this evening. I was driving up to town muttering obscenities at the radio for only giving me stations filled with commercials about bankruptcy lawyers and debt consolidation (really, how is it that all stations can be on commercial at the same time? What are the odds?!) when [...]

After reading my little review on three different brands of peach flavored tea to go you may have gotten the impression that I like those tea to go packets from Crystal Light and Lipton, especially the peach flavored ones. Pretty big container huh? And to think, it’s packed full of yummy tea packets. The current [...]

I found this wicked looking critter on the curtains on the kitchen door the other day (nasty looking stinger he’s got there, isn’t it?) and I had a startling realization – spring is here. So, armed with digital camera in hand I ventured out into the sunlight (gah! I’m melting!!) and decided to see what [...]

My grandfather got an interesting letter in the mail today. It’s from an agency called Comerica Financial Inc. Apparently he “won” a sweepstakes and they have been attempting to contact and distribute the winnings to him and he has not responded to the previous attempts. He says that, yes, he has received letters from them [...]

Honestly, it’s about damn time Naruto finds out who his father is. Kishimoto really dragged that out to the extreme. I mean, it was pretty damn obvious from the get go that the Yondaime was his father. I still don’t understand the purpose behind taking forever and a day to reveal the Yondaime’s real name. [...]

You may recall that I applied for unemployment benefits since DialAmerica still hasn’t bothered to contact me about when I can start work again. Well, I finally got the paperwork and information packets from Texas Workforce today. A lot of good it did me really, apparently I have been denied benefits. According to one letter, [...]

It would seem that I missed last week’s Booking Through Thursday question and I am, technically, late for this one as well. What makes it sad is that I had last week’s answer saved as a draft. It would seem I never published it for some odd reason. So instead of having two separate BTT [...]

And there still hasn’t been any word back yet from DialAmerica. I am intensely glad that I went ahead and filed for unemployment benefits because, let’s face, I don’t think they’re calling me back any time soon. I have two small checks coming from the still; one for two days of work and another for [...]

I thought for sure DialAmerica would give me a call today to at least tell me how much longer it is that I might be without work, although really, I was hoping they’d call and say that I started up again today or tomorrow. As you might have guessed, there was no call from them. [...]
