Time To Hit The Sack

I guess it’s time to go crash. Unfortunately tomorrow is another day at work. I am not looking forward to it for reasons I explained the other day. I will go spend some time over at the store with my new manager and explain some things to her about how we do things and maybe…Read more

Career Changes

I know this guy that I used to work with and we used to be pretty good friends. He has kind of gone off the deep end but I think he’s starting to get it back together again. I wouldn’t mind looking him up and seeing how he’s doing. Anyway, I worked with him off…Read more

School Supplies and Other Useless Crap

Back in August we went and did the yearly thing spending a small fortune on school supplies. Pens, pencils, paper and notebooks and as usual we had to send all of it in at one time. This is supposed to be the supplies for the entire year. Jump forward to today, two months later. I…Read more

Christmas Coming…

It’s funny how the girls are. Last year I bought one of them this mat that sits on the floor and includes a pen filled with water that you draw on the mat with. The year before that it was magna-doodle and the year before that was some type of rainbow thing. I can get…Read more

Top 100 Banned Books

Christine Anne Piesyk has gotten hold of the list of the 100 top banned books in schools and libraries in America and there is some discussion going on at Clarksville Online. So what’s on the list?

The Mist

Just got an email from Simon and Schuster about The Mist. The Stephen King movie based on his short story is due to be released in theaters next month. I am looking forward to going to see it as this is one of my favorites. The email had some kind of contest going on where…Read more

Anniversary Furniture?

I think the wife and I have two different viewpoints about what we are going to do for our 20th anniversary next May. She wants to redo the entire bedroom. New furniture, paint, all that good stuff, and I want to spend the money on a trip to the Caribbean. Originally I was thinking Hawaii…Read more

Lovely Sleep

Man, I was sleeping good this morning. I didn’t want to get out of bed today, that’s for sure but I told the girls last night that they could wake me up if they wanted. They decided that they wanted to ride the bus to school and then back home today, which is fine by…Read more

Puerto Rico

I’m such a chicken about flying that I have been seriously considering going to Puerto Rico next summer rather than trying to get up the guts to try and fly to Hawaii. Either way I am going to try and book everything early. I’ve been doing some reading on Puerto Rico and figured I would…Read more
