My one friend is having a New Year’s Eve party at his new condo but I cannot go because I have to be at work bright and early. It really sucks because I really wanted to go and hangout. Although, I don’t like being out on the road after midnight on New Years because of [...]

I got my new Jeep today and I’m sooooooo excited. While it doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that my last Jeep had, it does make up for it with some of its own. My favorite being the key is not a key but actually a microchip which makes for a very high tech [...]

It’s my favorite day of the year and things are looking so much better. We were having the family over today and I was so excited. For the past few Christmas’ things have been a little rocky but this year things seem much brighter. Mom, Dad, Diane, and Grandma fulfilled my Hollister addiction by setting [...]

Normally I am really happy about Christmas but it seems some people have to try and make things difficult. For the first time in my life we are spending Christmas Eve at home and it really sucks.

Ughh……….Another Black Friday. I really do hope this is my last one working retail. I must admit that the people were really decent this year and didn’t try to belittle the guy that was just trying to do his job the best he could. Maybe it helped that we actually had large volumes of this [...]

Hey, it’s turkey day. For those of us that work retail, it’s also the day before mass caos. We went to my aunt and uncles for dinner and it was really great to be around family. Things have been kind of rough lately and it was nice to see the family getting back together for [...]

It’s my best buddy’s birthday today and he gets to go to a Pistons game. I admit I’m a little jealous but at the same time I’m happy for him. Ever since he moved out money has been really tight for him so when his brother told him he got them tickets to a Pistons [...]
