After eight nine months of promises and debate, my employer has finally caved in and is promoting me to a position that takes me off the road. In my new position, I’ll be a “troubleshooter”, fixing departmental problems in addition to developing a training program for the entire company: field trainers, installation technicians, help [...]

Chickity china the chinese chicken
I went to the Chinese buffet place over by my house and I got this as my fortune:
I am particularly interested in this fortune if what they say is true about adding the words “in bed” to your fortune. Now, would that be “everything” or “Everyone”?
Stories from the Garage Sale
Yesterday I made almost $200 selling my old stuff! This is great! The garage looks a little more empty now… and unfortunately most of what’s left is the small stuff… the crap nobody wants.

It’s Twins!

Unfortunately, due to my job, I didn’t have time to completely clean out the closet, but I [...]
