So How Bad Is It? Yeah, It’s Pretty Bad
I’m talking of course about the current economic situation. Just to give you an example of just how bad it is, my entire family is laid off. How’s that grab you? My Mom was laid off a few months ago, stepfather as well. My twin sister and step brother are also both back in the job hunting market and of course, yours truly has been laid off since mid May. That’s pretty damn bad. Thanks AIG! About the only bright spot lately is my gracious landlord agreed to lower my rent a couple hundred dollars during this time of turmoil. Thank you so much Audry, you have no idea how much I appreciate it. It was extremely tough to ask but I’m so thankful you understand. Well, at least it’s Friday – so we got that going for us....

BudgetLighting.com, You Suck
I hate doing these negative posts but this one’s got me very pissed off. I recently blew out my desk lamp, which is a fairly expensive Ott-Lite VisionSaver desklamp designed to not put any undue stress on your eyes while working at your desk. So I ordered one from BudgetLighting.com as it was the cheapest place I could find online. The online order system said it was in stock and I purchased a couple. This was the 13th…. Today I get an email only after asking where the hell my order is saying it’s on back-order till July 9th. I... Continue Reading

I Got Hate-Mail. Awesome.
Not sure if this is a joke or real but either way it’s awesome, haha. This one comes from Jane Henoch…. “HOW DARE YOU MAKE FUN OF FAT PEOPLE AND YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CAN KISS DOUCHE BAG !!!” Whatever Jane, how long did it take you to get down there, or better yet how long did it take you get back up. Screw you fatty, I never said I hated fat people but you’ll qualify. I’m just not attracted to the thicker variety. If it’s a joke, it’s a good one. Thanks for the laugh! ….and if you clicked...

True Happiness
Sorry, just had to post this one. It’s been sitting in my “Blog Images” folder for awhile. One reason I wanted to post this, not that it’s really that relevant is I’ve recently broken down and tried a dating site…. and holy crap there are a lot fat people out there. Sorry thickness, just not interested. Not that I hate fat people, I’m just not attracted to a person who takes no personal responsibility for their body. You only get one and loading it up with McDonalds and doughnuts ain’t the way to do it. I don’t really care if... Continue Reading

Obama’s Public Conference Last Night
I’m no political correspondent and normally I treat politics with a polite disdain towards the greedy and conniving bastards of government but last night I tuned into the latest address by President Obama and it wasn’t as boring as I thought it was going to be. Granted we’ve been listening to freakin’ moron for the last 8 years so listening to someone actually put complete sentences together was refreshing. Most of the conference was on our current financial crisis which also made me feel a bit better. Everyone, at least everyone I know is feeling the pinch. Office work has... Continue Reading

It’s Friday the 13′th
You should all be terrified. Why, I’m not sure – we’re no where near Crystal Lake and it’s been over 200 years since the Salem Witch trials so I think we’re good. Don’t hold me to that though, I’m sure there’s still a ton of stuff that could go wrong today. I’m sure by now you all know where this paranoia comes from. So far I’m going to keep a positive out look on the day, after all I am officially an Ophiuchus, the 13th sign of the Zodiak. My sister will tell you different but hey, she can be... Continue Reading

Valentine’s Day’s Almost Here…
…and all I gotta say is “Fuck Valentine’s Day”. If you’re like me and single, here we go again folks. It’s time for that grim reminder we’ve been unable to find someone in our lives that can put up with us, or doesn’t make us want to club them upside the head each time they ask a stupid question. Eh, screw it. There should be plenty of places to get bombed on Saturday loaded with like-minded people who hate Valentine’s day (or are there to pick up the next Mr./Mrs. wrong in their lives). You all know where you’ll find... Continue Reading

It’s Freakin’ Cold Down Here!
It’s not supposed to be 37, feels like 27 degrees in West Palm. That’s not how this works. It’s supposed to be in the 60′s, maybe the 50′s but not freezing. I’m breaking out the gloves and maybe even a scarf today, holy crap. What’s the world coming to when you NEED to wear gloves in South Florida? At least we have surf. Too bad I can’t go because I work till 6 every day. Just waiting for Daylight Savings time finally expire…. that’s not till March 8th. Hopefully we’ll still have surf then.... Permalink

Dry-cleaning Woes
Over the years I’ve had pretty good luck with my dry-cleaners. Only twice have they completely messed things up and once they lost a pair of pretty expensive pants but hey, I guess this world isn’t full of smart people like I’d always hoped [hope you get the sarcasm]. I go to Sunshine Cleaners, rather they come to me. Very convenient for sure, as they deliver my dry-cleaning to my building and pick it up as well so all I have to do is pay a monthly tab and drop my stuff off at the front desk in a nifty...
