snapdragon76: this is made of win and awesome (Kenshin -- forsaken)
Meh. Life continues to want to kick me in the teeth...

We're having a hard time with coming up with the money for our vacation. We did have some saved up, but we had to use it for unexpected expenses such as a new car battery and bills. I'm hoping to try and build it up a little bit, but I also had some bills come up that I needed to pay and since I had to pay all of the rent this time around instead of just a portion of it, I didn't have as much left over. I was doing better at keeping my bank account full, but I wasn't able to this time and I'm kinda upset about that needless to say.

I really don't want to give up my vacation since I've been looking forward to this for a few years now. And now mom is having troubles with her computer which needs to be fixed and payed for somehow. This ALWAYS happens to us. We do really good for a time and when we get ready to do something nice, something ALWAYS comes up that we have to end up paying for. It's like we just cannot catch a break.

My life kinda sucks right now...

I was able to get my car into the mechanic's on Monday. I just hope it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to get my brakes fixed. *cringe* So at the moment I'm only driving it back and forth to work.

I had absolutely nothing to do at work today. So I tried to look busy as best I could and played some Solitaire on the sly. I think tomorrow may have some stuff, but who's to say.

I saw a segment on The Today Show this morning that some companies are trying to relieve the gas crunch that a lot of their employees are feeling but having only hour four day work weeks and others are even resorting to telecommuting. I am all in favor of telecommuting myself. I mean, if I can stay home and work i think I could be more productive. I mean, even if I have to still start work at 8:30 I could do it in my pajama's and not have to wake up nearly as early either. You could even work a little later if you needed to, because you wouldn't have to worry about the drive home. I know that there are already jobs out there that you can have and work at home, but they're mostly for stay at home moms or retirees or college students who already have a health plan (or on someone else's plan), so they offer no benefits or anything...

Mom's gonna be at the church tonight to go through some pictures for a project she's putting together for some friends of ours who will be leaving soon. I dunno how long she's gonna be there, so I'm pretty much on my own, which is fine. I just have to figure out what I'm gonna eat since I'm dead-ass broke. Nnnguh...

Bob Zimmerman graduated from high school in Hibbing, MN. Zimmerman was known as a greaser to classmates, because of his long sideburns and leather jacket. He would later change his name to Bob Dylan -- after poet Dylan Thomas.
