Time to make a public update on my money situation. In the end, Oct was an okay month with my money, but I think I shared that recently. What I want to share is how I have started saving cash at the store, now for some of ya’ll this is kid’s play but you gotta understand for me this is huge. …
It would appear that there is light at the end of the sickness tunnel, I am feeling normal and girl child is more or less back to herself. To say the last few days were rough would be an understatement, battling your own illness when your kid is sick, is a special type of hell. In my sick and confused …
Just a brief post to say that posting may be sparse for the next week. It seems H1N1 also known as the swine flu has hit the girl child’s preschool class. Now she has the sniffles and I have had an off and on fever for the past few days. Thanks to the piggy flu taking hold in her class, it’s meant …
My little state doesn’t make the national news much, after all with a population of only 1.5 million, it’s a pretty small state.

Last night I fell asleep listening to a commercial where the anti-gay folks were saying if gay marriage becomes a reality here that the society …

I have written at various times on the issue of college education and each time I get some comments that I think are really deserving of hearing independent of any post/rant that I have going on. So I ask you the reader, what does it mean to have any education? What does it mean to be educated? What do you think …
Since my last post touched on career frustrations, I figured it’s time to give an update on how that not spending thing is working out. Well it’s been better than previous attempts but my son getting his own car has put a slight cramp in my planned budget. No, I did not buy him a car, that honor goes to …
Just a random thought before I head out to enjoy some sunshine today. But am I the only person who is wondering about this swine flu thing? Seriously, I know its real and shit, hell my oldest and dearest friend in the universe is recovering from a bout with the pig and she says its nothing to sneeze at. Shit, …
