Random Thoughts

  • Just a quick thought

    If I ever figure out which person or animal woke me up at three AM this morning, there is going to be murder most foul here. Continue reading

  • Pondering the world…

    Why is it that I get exhausted at the thought of sitting in front of my computer for a couple of hours, but I can blow 4 hours making a dream gift registry at one store? Continue reading

  • Car thoughts

    I just got back from a focus group on Kia cars. I was a last minute add in (someone cancelled and Brigitte always looks after me), and I got paid well…. But that doesn’t change the fact that Kia’s are crap cars. I mean, you can’t fix them, and the maintenance cost to stay within Continue reading

  • Update

    Well, the job’s doing ok, and is a little less scary than I imagined. I think, once the dust clears, that I’ll be able to do this pretty much without too much trouble. In fact, I think that I’ll be able to do this, and still have time to help out with charge entry (my Continue reading

    I just wanted everyone to know that I’m still here! I’ve been really busy with work and travel, and as a result, I have been a bad blogger. They switched the computers at work, so I can no longer borrow someone else’s password to log into the internet there, and that’s really cramped my style, Continue reading
