There is indeed such a thing as internet addiction. I should know, I’ve been going through withdrawal. First my internet service provider was acting screwy and now I’m just flat out without internet at home. The computer at my mom’s office said “I Quit” and did not bother to give her two weeks written notice [...]

You’ve been hearing me gripe over and over about the subdivision that they wanted to build here in La Mesa for roughly two years now. At long last, all of the hard work protesting this travesty has paid off. The plan to build a subdivision in La Mesa, which was to be called Peyton’s Place, [...]

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, [...]

In case you can’t tell, the title of this post is meant to be bitingly and bitterly sarcastic. Last week I mentioned that we had a new program to call on so the work was coming in steady once again. I guess I spoke too soon.
Monday was a fairly average day, despite the accident on [...]

Truly, sometimes the only person you can trust is yourself. Since my car is not exactly drivable right now I’ve been using my grandfather’s truck to get to work. Yesterday he showed up late, so late I had to call in and tell them I wouldn’t be coming in. Of course, after I had called [...]

So today was quite the interesting day. My grandfather took me to Las Cruces so I could try to apply for a loan with him cosigning for me. As you might have guessed, things didn’t go as planned. For every good there seemed to be a bad.
Good News
My grandfather was able to make time in [...]

That’s the conclusion that I have come to anyway. Friday night on my way home I got caught up in a fender bender - again. To avoid one guy who almost clipped me I pulled into another lane, which wasn’t moving, and couldn’t brake fast enough.

The car was drivable, but I noticed that it [...]

I love using the laundromat up on NMSU. It’s open twenty-fours, so I can get my laundry done no matter how late (or early) it is. Then there’s the fact that it has free wi-fi, plenty of outlets to plug my laptop into and comfy couches and chairs to sit on. How can you go [...]

Today (or rather yesterday) was my birthday. I think from this point on I’m going to stop keeping track of the years that pass. Every time someone asked me just how old I was now I sort of winced before answering. I mean really, twenty-five makes me sound like I should be well into adulthood [...]

My only regret is that I’m not one of those fools who is always texting on their phone when driving, so my phone was not handy. Otherwise I would have totally snapped a shot of this stupidity. At the intersection of Gateway West and Airway Blvd there is this bum who is always standing there [...]
