I get a lot of different emails advertising various auction, wholesale, and resale places. In fact, my gmail and one of my hotmail accounts get so much of it that I seriously have to wonder how I got on some of these lists. Ironically, the other day I saw an email for Bidz.com nestled next [...]

So…just how long can a business hold a “going out of business” sale before it becomes ridiculous? Ever since I started working at DialAmerica I’ve seen these dudes holding signs advertising a furniture store that is going out of business standing at the intersections and the streets connecting to the freeway entrances and exits.

I got to pick up Pyro today. My car was actually ready yesterday evening, but since I was alaready at work, I picked it up today. Turns out that the reason Pyro wasn’t starting is because there was a short. The short was connected to the fuse and the car’s dome light. Basically, even when [...]

Alas, despite my best efforts to have all of my Christmas shopping done well in advance of Christmas, I’m afraid I’m going to have to be doing some last minute shopping tomorrow anyway. Can you imagine the madness I’m going to encounter shopping on Christmas Eve? What makes this worse is that I will have [...]

Joana is hired! That’s right folks, just got off the phone with a very nice woman at DialAmerica. My training starts Monday at 3pm.
It’s an awesome feeling to know that, starting Monday, I will have a steady flow of income and will no longer have to worry about loss of service or late [...]

Last year the New Mexico State Aggies hosted a football game to help raise funds for breast cancer researcher. Head coah Hal Mumme’s wife is one of many women who has been diagnosed with breast cancer and who hasn’t given up the fight. During this game, the Aggies are more than proud, not to mention [...]

I went shopping the other day, went in for groceries and ended up doing a little splurging as well. My so bad. But it was, thankfully, very minor. While leaving the pet department and heading over to the automotive department in Wal-Mart, I passed by the incense and potpourri aisle and caught a whiff of [...]
