well, New Years Eve, I got to push carts in slush. which made for one hell of a workout.
I figured I would sleep nicely that night, since I was getting over a cold and had a great workout/got quite tired out by pushing those damn carts.
nope...I got another cold. thankfully, yay fast immune system, think I'm almost over this one as well.

I have both dealers and users packing up and leaving, no questions asked after the letters were served due to the results of the drug sniffing dog searches on the exterior of my properties 
I love this, I may spend the money for a dog and training for my security crews so I can do regular and random sweeps. I've had the cops kill somebody, even had a multiple murder on my properties ... so removing the dealers and users will go a long way towards reduce crime and improving living conditions for everybody

Thanks. I'll be ok, I'm sure...eventually. 
well, its a new year, so I guess I best post something.
let's see....today, I got to push carts for about 6 1/2 hours. which isn't too bad....except for this damn snow. which meant I had no footing. which led to me only pushing a small amount of carts because, well, I just couldn't get the traction needed. it sucked. and was tough work. I...

will keep my fingers crossed for the job!!!
and if the stupid meds would just let me be selective about the things I forget and be LONG term things that would rock. I could forget most of last year and some of the dickheads in my past!
But its just short term. Its usually when I have conversations after I take my meds...during the day I am ok, and dont talk to ppl much because they are mostly all at work...but at night? Ya I am all fuckerd up and forgetful! lol

That should be a fun job

Good luck with the job, it does sound like an interesting job. That much snow was almost a state of emergency? We had that much snow and the malls were still packed with shoppers! I guess people in NY just can't handle the snow.
so right now, well, last night, i went to sleep and it was pretty clear out. now, I look outside, and well, I see lots and lots of snow. we have 8" to 11" expected of snow fall today. and its in the 20's F (-6 C for the Canadian friends here). so a whee bit chilly as well.

no pants rule eh?? i like that rule A LOT!!
so Brockport called me today. no, I did not get the job. I do appreciate them calling back....hmm, maybe I should send out a "Thank you" note to the Principal.
so i did ask for feedback...I dress very well and present myself very well. the concern was my theoretical perspective. I tend to be more Existential, a la Viktor Frankl. the counselors felt that my...

I am really sorry. At least they got back to you, I have never had someone get back to me after an interview here.

Feedback is good.
I think you really don't want to live on sheets of ice. It's very strange.

well, its 3 PM, and the school district (Brockport) said they were going to call me either Friday or Monday (with the idea of someone starting the next day). since its 3 PM and the end of the school day, I'm guessing I did not get the job ...bummers!
but, I do have other jobs on the horizon. I keep searching for Res Life positions....

my sentiments exactly. 200 bucks a day for time limited job would be great. I've gotta find me something,

Well I am hoping you got better news after the blog. About your blog yesterday - I was voted "Mostly likely to die before 21" in HS...and always thought I'd die at 36...so don't be too surprised if you see 46.
Thanks for your feedback on my blog. As to YOUR questions:
1. does it surprise you to hear that I am single, very single, and while not happy about it, single for 4 to 8 years now (depending on how you count things). Not sure about the counting thing - Leap Year?
But I knew you were single. I think it is a habit, like many others, that is easy to fall into. I still think the first step to a "cure" is to make sure you spontaneously strike up conversations with 3 women a day. At the supermarket. "Do you know how to figure out which cantaloupe is good - I always get it wrong?" A waitress - talk about something, ask about something, beyond the basic requirements of ordering food. Etc.
At the early habit forming stage don't worry about it going anywhere - just get into the habit of talking to women.
2. people say I'm sarcastic. do I seem that way?
Haven't picked up on it here...

well, tomorrow (Monday) I find out if I got the job or not. some ways, I think I had a good interview. other ways, maybe not.
at times I think I got a little too comfortable...is that a good thing or a bad thing?
so what else? mood has been weird lately. guess its the season. yes, I hate December...here's a quick run down why:...
