I love that song, sometimes I sang that as I was walking 20 miles one way to get to work.

It was always scary when my cat Jennifer would go through that. I can't even imagine what it must be if it were my mom. I'm glad she's all right now.


My cat Tucker has to get shots twice a day. He lives with my sister along with my other cat Booger. My wife is deathly allergic to anything with fur.

My mom turn 59 on August 26 this year, she is going to die probably within 30 years. I turn 22 this October 23. I'm not able to hold a job though, due to the stress of working long hour at minimum wage with nasty coniving people. If I could get a GOOD job, I would be willing and able to keep it.


There's always Ana54's commune!

I don't like working those kinds of jobs either but the bread's got to come from somewhere (I've been a nanny and preschool teacher for seven years). If I could redo my life, I'd have majored in civil engineering. Or maybe mechanical engineering. Maybe. Heck, if I could start all over from the beginning, maybe I'd be an astronaut.

It'll be nice if Ana54's commune becomes real!

The thing about those jobs is that they don't ever pay enough. If they notice they're paying you enough to live they'll cut your hours. I'm studying electronics so I can get a job that pays twice minimum and go to Tech school so I can futher that.

Astronaut would be cool, but I don't like the whole roman candle ride thing, ya know?

I'm going to try nailing it the first time, and head off to computer engineering school!

Yes folks, in 10 or 15 years from now, I could be the one fixing your computer!

By then, it will require you to be a brain surgeon, because we will have computer chips with wi-fi connected to our brains. :wink:

You will not have a choice :P, and lame :roll: to the second part. It is September for crying out loud. I deal with that in my area due to all of the rednecks.

I can't believe you guys allowed Triggs to win for three whole hours!

It's time for a punishment.

I've started writing a book about space parrots, if anyone wants to read it it's in my blog on WP.

Why not let Trigger win?
