I Already Have A Blog

Overdue, But Not Forgotten

2011-03-09T18:04:00.001-08:00

I know this is the first update I’ve made in several months and the first one of 2011. After almost a year, something finally snapped and World of Warcraft’s grip on me seems to have been broken, at least for the time being. I’m still unemployed and avidly searching for a job. I knew it was bad, but damn this is ridiculous. People ask me if I think the name change has anything to do with it, and I tell them no. No other woman has issues related to their name after getting married, so why should I? What ever the case may be, I’m starting to come out of a slump and I’m looking forward to what this year has to bring.

I'm still kickin

2010-08-03T20:19:00.001-07:00

Just not very hard.

A Wonderful Start To The Year

2010-01-17T00:21:00.000-08:00

Yesterday was great and officially marks the beginning of my new life. I went before a judge and was granted an order to legally change my name to Jenna as well as ordering my name AND gender to be changed on my driver’s license, birth certificate, and all of my other legal documents. Ironically, I also picked up my associate of applied science degree yesterday, too. Now I have to order another one with the new name on it. No big deal though. I’ve accomplished a lot in the last year. I completed my degree, had a major surgery that needed to b e done, started electrolysis, changed my name and gender legally, paid off my house, re-established my credit, and came clean with my mother about why I had been so miserable for so long. Here’s to hoping 2010 will bring me a great job and bring me closer to feeling complete in every way possible.

It's About Time

2009-10-14T13:57:00.000-07:00

I'm about to put this blog to good use. I'm going to start transcribing my diary entries onto this site. This should end well.

WHAT IS CRYSTALLIZATION?

Crystallization is a complex but highly valued process in the petrochemical and manufacturing industries. Crystallization is described as the process of producing crystals through the precipitation of a solute from a solvent, a melt, or by being directly deposited from a gas. This can be accomplished through a variety of methods including, but not limited to, cooling, evaporation or chemical processes.
With the fast growth of the chemical industry in the last 100 years, the demand for the study of crystallization dynamics has increased greatly. Variations of this process have been used for thousands of years, and today many types of equipment are used depending on the product needed and the cost involved. From plastics, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food products, the process of crystallization is considered an important industrial process due to the large number of materials marketed as crystalline particles. Some of the many products which rely on crystallization in the manufacturing process include:

• Ascorbic Acid
• Bisphenol-A-Adduct
• Boric Acid
• Caffeine
• Calcium Chloride
• Potassium Phosphate
• Salicylic Acid
• Silver Nitrate
• Vitamin C
A sample of boric acid crystals.
The crystallization process is a type of unit operation that begins by dissolving a chemical compound into a given solvent creating a mixture called mother liquor. The solute substance is precipitated from the mother liquor under controlled conditions. In order to obtain effective control over the process, importance is placed on controlling retention time and crystal mass. The goals are to achieve the most favorable conditions for the development of crystal specific surface and the fastest possible growth.
The crystallization process is made up of two major events. These are referred to as the nucleation phase and the crystal growth phase. Nucleation is the step where the dissolved molecules which have been dispersed in the solvent begin to form into clusters that become stable under the current operating conditions. These stable clusters constitute the nuclei. Whenever these clusters remain unstable, they begin to redissolve. Therefore, the clusters need to reach a critical size in order to become stable nuclei. Such critical size is dictated by the operating conditions of the particular process used (temperature, pressure, supersaturation, etc.). It is at the stage of nucleation that the atoms become arranged in a defined and periodic manner that will define the crystal structure. Crystals are formed following a well-defined structure that is established by forces that work on the molecular level. As a consequence, during its formation process, the crystal is in an environment where the solute concentration reaches a certain critical value before changing phases.
The main factors influencing solubility are concentration and temperature. The formation of solid crystals, which cannot take place below the solubility threshold at the given temperature and pressure conditions, takes place at a concentration higher than the theoretical solubility level. This fundamental factor in the crystallization process, referred to as supersaturation, is the difference between the actual value of the solute concentration at the crystallization limit and the theoretical solubility threshold. Supersaturation is the main factor behind the initial nucleation step and the crystal growth that follows, neither of which can occur in saturated or undersaturated conditions.

Just got called for a second job interview. This is an encouraging sign for me. That and I graduate in December.

Life Changes

2009-07-20T04:40:00.000-07:00

I’m currently trying to decide if I want to start blogging about everything that’s going on in my life here or on my other blog. A lot of things are changing and some of those changes are going to either shock or offend some people. To those people I would just ask that you keep it to yourself. It’s hard enough without being harassed and hated on. I took a new saying to heart when I saw it and really believe that it’s going to help me get through the days easier when people try bringing me down:

Always be yourself. Because the people that matter don’t mind. And the ones that do mind don’t matter.

I recently started to keep a paper diary of some of my daily activities, the first one I’ve had in almost 30 years, which I might begin transcribing to my blogs. I guess I should look at my Google Analytics information to see what kind of traffic I’m getting. It may not be that big of a deal right now, and it may be that the content causes an explosion in traffic. I guess only time will tell. What really needs to be determined is what kind of people are reading my blogs. If all I’m getting is a bunch of closed minded, prejudiced, homophobic assholes, then I’m not going to put anything up on this blog or the other. I’ll start a new one just for the purpose of documenting what I feel could be very helpful to others as well as myself when I need to look back and see how far I’ve come. Comments and constructive criticism are welcome, but please try to keep it civilized. Life can be hard enough without someone trying to ruin your day before it’s even begun.

Working Copy For Essay 2

2009-06-19T22:28:00.000-07:00

The assignment is based on an essay by Stephen Chapman titled The Prisoner's Dilemma: Why is it significant that punishment in the West is private and follows secular guidelines, whereas in Eastern cultures, punishment is public and follows Koranic law? Discuss how differences in forms of punishment reveal cultural values.

The establishment of laws in society and the punishments for breaking them have roots in religion throughout history. Many criminal behaviors today, such as murder and theft, have not changed in thousands of years, but the manner in which those crimes are prosecuted, judged, and punished have changed even in cultures whose laws were originally founded in religion. While religion has been the foundation upon which the basic structure of ethical behavior in society is based, it has been almost totally eradicated from modern court rooms in the west. This is very different from countries in the Middle East whose laws are based on the Koran, where the religion is the law and punishment is meted out according to scripture.

With the secularization of the legal system in Western countries, trials and subsequent sentencing were taken behind closed doors and away from the public eye. While some high profile crimes draw the attention of the media and are reported in the news rampantly, most are quietly decided and their defendants sentenced to be tucked away in a cell with other like minded criminals far from the public eye. There is seldom any impact on the psyche of the public, others involved in the same criminal activities, or even those that would ponder committing an offense against society. Only when capital punishment is being delivered for the most heinous of crimes does the public once again become aware of the seriousness of the what can happen when the law is broken.

Where Koranic law is the accepted practice there is a much more drastic approach taken to the trial and punishment of offenses which can be as trivial as singing or dancing in public or as severe as murder. Some offenses, such as blasphemy and abandoning Islam, carry the same weight as murder: the death penalty. Punishments are frequently carried out in public and commonly attended by large audiences of men, women and children. These public displays of discipline serve as a warning and reminder of the consequences for breaking the law, leaving an often graphic and brutal image forever etched into the minds of those present to witness them.

So how do these differing manners of implementing justice impact society and its miscreants? It has been shown that imprisoning criminals is doing little to accomplish the desired goal of rehabilitating them for re-entry into society. The prison system is overloaded with people convicted of petty non-violent crimes who, after being condemned to serve long jail sentences with violent offenders, will probably be scarred for life after their release. And while it can surely be said that a thief in the Middle East who has his hand cut off for stealing will also be scarred for life, he is highly unlikely to commit the same offense again, nor for that matter any other. As this once corrupt person carries on with his daily activities, the sign of his punishment serves as a visual reminder to everyone he encounters of the cost that must be paid for not obeying the law.

Review of The Four Agreements

2009-05-03T18:51:00.000-07:00

This is more of a self help book than a business book. However, it provides a powerful code of conduct to apply in today’s tough business world. The code of conduct is based on four values “agreements” that are hard to apply. The difficulty in application comes from the fact that they go against the traditional way people are trained to deal with others and situations they face. The four agreements are: be impeccable with your word, don’t take anything personally, don’t make assumptions, and always do your best.
The book was written by Don Miguel Ruiz. In each section he explains one of the “four agreements. Be Impeccable with Your Word is the first of the four agreements. It is about speaking with integrity. Considering the word as a sacred testament of truth, Don stresses the importance of only speaking the truth and using the word for the betterment of self and others. He elaborates on how the word can be used as a “healing” tool and as a “poison.” From a business perspective, one can draw parallels to being positive and negative in communicating with others.
Don't Take Anything Personally is the second agreement. In this section, Ruiz makes a compelling demonstration on how nothing is personal. When people hurt, cheat, abuse, or betray others, it is not personal. So, when subjected to any of these evils of others, one should remember that it is not personal and react accordingly. This is a tough thing to do in a world that takes everything personally, according to Ruiz. He asserts that nothing others do is because of you. What others say or do is a projection of their own reality and dreams. When people say that someone “hurt their feelings” in reality they mean that they made a decision to be hurt by what someone said or did. So, according to Ruiz what another person has done has nothing to do with how it affects us. He takes this to the extreme without leaving room for any exceptions. When a person is immune to the opinions and actions of others, then that person will cease to be the victim of needless suffering caused by taking what others do personally. This can be especially important in business. Competition, rivalry, and even disagreements and feuds are all not personal. They are about the business and not personal. It is better to focus on behavior and statements, rather than people, when trying to solve a problem.
Don't Make Assumptions is about finding the courage to ask questions and to express wants and needs in a clear and candid manner. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. Assumptions make people believe things that do not exist by becoming hostage to their own assumptions. Instead of assumptions, Ruiz suggests clearly expressing feelings and making an effort to understand clearly others’ motives, statements, and behaviors. According to him, one can completely transform his or her life with just this agreement. In business, making false assumptions is a cause of failure for projects and companies alike. If people make less assumptions, or try to validate their assumptions, they would face less risk of making a wrong business decision.
Always Do Your Best is the last agreement, but could be the most important. Someone’s best is going to change over time and depending on strength, psyche, and circumstances. When people do the best they could, they avoid self-judgment and self-abuse. When doing a person’s best, then there will be no regrets. Don demonstrates how he himself uses this agreement to his advantage. When asked whether he applies what he preaches, he always answers: “I do my best.” In the business world, after doing one’s best, one should be content with the outcomes. This should have the positive effect of pushing self to the highest performance levels. That will result in the highest possible effort been exerted towards achieving goals.
The four agreements affect each other as they are inter-dependent and complement one another. According to the author, one must combine the four together to be able to apply any of them properly. In the business world, all four agreements are applicable, and can relieve much of the stress that comes from the disappointments and problems of today’s business world.
The book is based on the Toltec tradition. Toltecs are a nation that ruled much of Maya central Mexico from the tenth to twelfth centuries A.D. Toltecs have been known throughout southern Mexico as "women and men of knowledge" for many centuries. The book author; Don Miguel Ruiz, is himself a shaman of the Toltec tradition. Ruiz led a normal life as a surgeon until a near death experience in the 70s changed his life. Don dedicated the first part of the book to talk about the Toltecs, their beliefs, values, and views on life.
=====================================================

The Four Agreements is a book written by don Miguel Ruiz, a shaman of the Toltec tradition whose life was transformed after a near death experience in the 1970s, in which he explains what the four agreements are and how they can be applied in everyday life. The book is based on the teachings and traditions of the Toltec people that ruled much of the Maya region of Mexico between the tenth and twelfth centuries A.D. and who were widely known in southern Mexico as "women and men of knowledge". The first chapter of the book establishes a background about the Toltec people, their beliefs, values, and views on life. In the sections which follow he explains each of the four agreements: be impeccable with your word, don't take anything personally, don't make assumptions, and always do your best. These four concepts are complimentary, they are each dependent on the others and must be combined for any of them to be applied properly. The four agreements are simple concepts to understand yet can be difficult to apply . This is because of the manner which people are accustomed to dealing with others and situations they face in their lives.

The four agreements start with Be Impeccable With Your Word. The focal point here is placed on only speaking the truth, speaking with integrity, and using the word for the betterment of others and yourself. Don Ruiz explains that the word should be considered a sacred testament of truth, and when it is, it can be used as a tool to bring about healing.

Don't Take Anything personally is the second agreement. Ruiz explains that this can be a hard thing to do in a world that takes everything personally. The assertion made here is that nothing others say or do is because of you, but it is rather a projection of their own reality and dreams. By immunizing ourselves from the opinions and actions of others we can stop being victims of the unnecessary suffering that comes from taking what others do to us personally.

Don't Make Assumptions centers on the ability to effectively communicate with people and clearly express our wants and needs and, according to Ruiz, a person can completely transform their life by just applying this agreement. When we make assumptions, we begin to believe in non-existent things which we in turn become hostages to. Ruiz explains that we need to have the strength to ask questions, express our feelings, and communicate clearly with others to fully understand their motives, statements, and behaviors. By doing so, we can avoid sadness, drama, and misunderstandings.

Always Do You Best is the last of the four agreements. This is very important because when we do our best, we prevent ourselves from falling prey to the misery which comes from self-judgment and self-abuse. After doing our best, we will have no regrets and be content with the results of our efforts.

The Four Agreements is the first book in a long time that I was able to finish reading. I was reminded of the books by Carlos Castaneda that I would spend hours pouring over. After reading the first chapter, my interest in rebuilding my collection of Castaneda's books was rekindled. The concepts are the same, yet beautifully simplified, so that anyone can read and understand it. Don Ruiz presents the Toltec teachings in a clear and easy to understand format for the casual reader. This is in stark contrast to Castaneda's books, which can seem more like fantasy novels. Castaneda's books were written from the perspective of a Toltec shaman's apprentice and targeted to a reading audience that typically had some background in metaphysics or the mystical arts. Now that I've finished The Four Agreements, I look forward to reading don Ruiz's other two books first in the hope that they will give me a little more insight into the Toltec teachings which could sometimes be difficult to comprehend in Castaneda's writings.

The Genie

2009-03-20T18:11:00.001-07:00

A couple went golfing one day at a very, very exclusive course lined with million dollar homes. On the third tee, the husband cautioned, "Honey, be careful when you drive. If we break one of those windows it'll cost us a fortune to repair." Of course, she tee'd off and promptly shanked it right through the window of the biggest house on the course. The husband cringed, "I warned you to watch out...now we'll have to go up there and apologize and see how much that lousy drive is going to cost." They walked up, knocked on the door, and a warm voice said, Come on in." When they opened the door they saw glass all over the place and a broken antique bottle lying on its side near the broken window. A man reclining on the couch said, "Are you the people that broke the window?" "Ooh yeah, we're sure sorry about that" the husband replied. "Oh, no apology is necessary. Actually I want to thank you. You see, I'm a genie, and I've been trapped in that bottle for a thousand years. Now that you've released me, I'm allowed to grant three wishes. I'll give you each one wish, and I'll keep the last one for myself." "Wow, that's great!" the husband said." He pondered a moment and blurted out, "I'd like a million dollars a year for the rest of my life." "No problem, you've got it, it's the least I can do. And now you, young lady, what do you want?" the genie asked looking at the wife. "I'd like to own a gorgeous home complete with servants in every country in the world" she said. "Consider it done." The genie said. "And now, they both asked in unison, "What's your wish, genie?" "Well, since I've been trapped in that bottle and haven't been with a woman in a thousand years, my wish is to have sex with your wife." The husband looked at his wife and said, "Gee, honey, you know we both now have a fortune, and all those houses. What do you think?" She mulled it over for a few moments and said, "You know, you're right. Considering all that, I guess I wouldn't mind." The genie and the woman went upstairs where he ravished her for the rest of the afternoon. Both satisfied each other repeatedly, and afterward, as the genie rolled over he looked at the wife and asked, "Tell me, how old are you and your husband?" "Why, we're both 35" she responded breathlessly. "No kidding! Thirty-five years old and both of you idiots still believe in genies?"

Ahh, The Boredom Killer

2009-01-22T15:28:00.000-08:00

School is back in session after a five week break. I was getting bored sitting on my ass all day watching TV, playing games, and screwing around on the computer. :P

Some May Ask Why

2008-10-31T12:27:00.000-07:00

Yesterday marked a milestone in my life that I been working toward for the last 13 years. I finally got my vasectomy. A lot of people have asked me why I would have a vasectomy even though I don't have any kids. Well here is the simplest explanation that I can give. There are some people in this world that should never be allowed to have children for one reason or another. It just so happens that I feel like I belong in that category. I was raised in an abusive environment and have no tolerance for children. I can't stand being around them or hearing other people talk about them. My foul attitude towards children and and lack of emotional response to hearing about violence toward them led me to my final decision. In other words, it was a proactive decision on my part to prevent any future harm to myself, both mentally and legally, as well as others around me.

I'm sure there are some people who will still think that it was a poor decision, but I spent well over 13 years knowing that this was what was right for me. When asked by a great-aunt 5 years ago when I was going to settle down and have children, my other just looked at her and shook her head. She already knew what I had decided. Whether she had accepted the inevitability of that I don't know. The question I have to answer now is this. When, if ever, do I tell my mother? I have to wonder if she held out hope that one day I would relent and sire a demon seed. Whatever the case may be, it's too late now.

After returning home yesterday I felt more tired than usual. That could have been due to not sleeping well Wednesday night, the lack of food for 13 hours, and of course from the procedure itself. But later last night, after having slept for a few hours, I felt a peace of mind come over me that I had been looking for in vain. And now that i have it, I know that I made the right decision.

Mmm Delicious Apple

2008-10-24T21:57:00.000-07:00

The new Macbook Pro came in Wednesday much to my delight. So far, I've been very happy with the performance and ease of use. It's quite possible that once I get adjusted to the new OS I may use the Macbook more than my desktop. There is also the distinct possibility of making a trip to the local Fry's store for a game or two. I must remember to buy my new toys when I have time off from school to play with them. Bah, I've got to start studying.

God Damn Hurricane

2008-09-15T11:52:00.000-07:00

Just letting what few people read this blog know that I'm alive after the storm. The house is intact and undamaged. There are currently no water, sewer, gas, electric, or cable services where I live and I can't go home until the city gives an all clear. But I'll leach WiFi where I can to get online. :P

Still sober after 10 weeks. Have had an MRI to try to find out why I'm having memory issues and headaches. And I'm almost ready to go back to school. Yay!

Still Here

2008-02-25T02:54:00.001-08:00

I've been sober for 8 weeks now and getting ready to go back to school. Schweet. Now I need to find a job that will accommodate that.

For those who don't know much about history... here is a condensed version:

2007-12-21T09:43:00.001-08:00

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
hunter/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and
would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter..

The two most important events in all of history were:

1. The invention of beer, and
2. The invention of the wheel.

The wheel was invented to get man to the beer.

These were the foundations of modern civilization and together were the
catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups: 1.
Liberals 2. Conservatives.

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of
agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so
while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented,
they just stayed close to the brewery.

That's how villages were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to B-B-Q at night
while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as
the Conservative movement.

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off the
conservatives by showing up for the nightly B-B-Q's and doing the sewing,
fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal movement.
Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became
known as girlie-men.

Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication of cats, the
invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of Democratic voting
to decide how to divide the meat and beer that conservatives provided.

Over the years Conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most
powerful land animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals are symbolized by the
jackass.

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white
wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish, but like their beef well
done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.

Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher
testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers, personal injury
attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are
liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn't
fair to make the pitcher also bat.

Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat and still provide for
their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumberjacks,
construction workers, firemen, medical workers, police officers, corporate
executives, athletes, marines, and generally anyone who works productively.
Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work for
a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and
decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more
enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals remained in
Europe when conservatives were coming to America . The liberals crept in
after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more
for nothing.

Here ends today's lesson in world history....... It should be noted that a
Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily respond to the above.

A Conservative will simply laugh and knowing the absolute truth of this
history, he will be forwarding it immediately to other true believers and to
more liberals just to piss them off....

From Prozac To Lithium

2007-11-21T23:01:00.000-08:00

The physical relief I got from taking my new job has been absolutely great. After three months, I'm almost out of pain. The downside has been that the bullshit that comes with the job has triggered a major depressive episode. I'm sleeping 10 - 12 hours and waking up tired. Going in to work in a daze, leaving to run the route in a bigger one. So frustrated or pissed off within 2 hours that I can't concentrate. Yesterday I was ready to go ballistic at the first person that talked to me after my first stop for no reason. From walking around like I was stoned off my ass to ready to fight. By the end of the day, I was so hyper that I couldn't hardly stop talking. I'm going to have to get my meds reviewed and screened for bi-polar. This job has made me a complete mess. The self-confidence and strength I had in my old job went straight to hell. The only thing that reminds me that I still have control is a nice 80 mile-per-hour run down the freeway on my bike. The one thing that everyone thought would kill me has been the thing that helped me most. But for the job, I could get more therapy from it. Fuck the job. My sanity has to come first.

This is the second straight holiday I've spent home due to stormy weather. What a waste of a 3 day weekend.

Damned Texas Weather

2007-04-14T17:50:00.000-07:00

It’s been said that if you don’t like the weather in Texas, wait five minutes and it’ll change. Today was one of those days. When I left the house to go riding, it was a nice, sunny 68°F outside and breezy. I just got home and my fingers are still tingling and numb. Within 30 minutes, the temperature had dropped to 53°F, cloudy and windy. I could really go for a hot tub right now. Brrrr.

Getting hurt sucks. Getting hurt at work isn’t as bad though since I don’t end up paying for the medical bills. But being on restricted duty is beginning to bore the ever living hell out of me. Stitches come out Thursday, so hopefully not to long before I can get back to my regular routes and paychecks. On the lighter side, I was sober for 2 weeks. :-/

Almost Time Again

2006-12-15T17:10:00.000-08:00

Hooray for more vacation time! :D

4 More Working Days

2006-09-04T16:59:00.000-07:00

Four days left until I start 9 days of vacation time. After 6 months of constant ass busting, I need it.

Heh

2006-05-13T23:22:00.000-07:00

I'm not dead yet. But this fucking Coca-Cola job may push me close. Any takers on how long I last?

Who Knew?

2006-01-19T16:37:00.000-08:00

After all of the crap it took to get my CDL, now I'm finding out that without a certificate from driving school or a bare minimum of 6 months of experience, it's hard as hell getting a job driving trucks. I'm hoping that I don't end up having to commit to a company for a year just for sending me to a school. If anyone has any good advice, I'm all for it. :-/

Oh Happy Day!

2005-12-22T07:46:00.000-08:00

I got my commercial driver's license Tuesday. Now I can go drive the big trucks for big money.

Yes Motherfuckers

2005-11-05T00:56:00.000-08:00

I'm still alive. More later after a few more beers and some more Blog$hares

Bleh

2005-10-08T13:28:00.000-07:00

I made it through the hurricane. Hurray for me. And for some fucked up reason, I can't insert smiley Xtra stuff into my posts. :-/

Who Would Have Believed

2005-09-12T23:13:00.000-07:00

As hard as it is to believe, I've been sober for 9 days. I'm actually starting to feel pretty good. :D

Freedom

2005-09-02T16:34:00.000-07:00

Fuck Pizza Hut straight to hell. I'm unemployed and for the most part, I'm happy that I don't have to work in that shit hole anymore. Do I care that I got fired and can't get unemployment? Hell no! It's a long weekend and I have 22 cents to carry me through. I'm going to enjoy myself just because I can and don't have to deal with cheap fucking morons that order from Pizza Hut and don't tip in the Pasadena area. And with that, I go to find myself a party with cheap beer and cheaper women.

Unbelievable

2005-08-19T20:36:00.000-07:00

Work sucks lately. No business and no tips. I've gotta get a new job soon. :-/

Fuck PIzza Hut

2005-08-12T22:28:00.000-07:00

They think they can stop me from writing TipThePizzaGuy.com on my change. Boy, have those fucking morons got another thing coming and a lot to learn about devious types like myself. Fuck them and fuck any piece of shit that orders from there and doesn't tip.

God Dammit!

2005-08-07T20:25:00.000-07:00

Just found out that the raver idiot got his fat, lazy girlfriend pregnant and she's too stupid to have an abortion. Fucking joy. That gives me about 6 months to try and save $4,000 to pay off old bills so I can get anew place to live. This is necessitated due to the fact that I hate children more than anything on the face of the planet and they know I'll kill the little piece of shit the first time it gets on my nerves. I'm just so fucking happy. >:-/

Mmmm Beer

2005-08-06T03:13:00.000-07:00

Molson Canadian. Good shit. I don't know what else to say about it. Buy me a laptop too. :P Wishlist ===>> Amazon.com Wishlist

Fucking Ravers

2005-08-02T19:26:00.000-07:00

These stupid fucks can't turn up their piece of shit turntables during the day when I'm at work. Oh no. The dumbshits wait until after 9:30pm or later, knowing it pisses me off and makes me hate the shit more each time. I swear, if they die I'm going to celebrate. :-/

Oh Happy Joy

2005-08-01T19:32:00.000-07:00

I still work for the biggest piece of shit pizza company in the world. But not for long. Now where did I put my beer?

Is The Mail Here Yet?

2005-07-27T18:35:00.000-07:00

The mail needs to hurry up and get here tomorrow. Funds are incoming to go back to the doctor for medication refills. I really need my medication.

New Gadgets Are Cool

2005-07-17T00:08:00.000-07:00

I went to the local Walgreen's last week and got a Titanium Turbo electric razor. Yeah, the one from TV. I've gotta say that for a $10 razor it isn't a bad little thing to have around in the truck if I need a quick shave.

Cheap Gas

2005-07-11T22:14:00.000-07:00

If you live in Pasadena, Texas the Randall's on Fairmont Parkway and Preston Rd. has gas for $2.15 per gallon or $2.12 if you have a Randall's Club Card. If you know of anywhere cheaper in the Pasadena / Deer Park area let me know.

Saturday Night TV Sucks

2005-07-09T23:39:00.000-07:00

There isn't a damn thing on worth watching. I might have to watch a dvd or something. Suckage.

Isn't It Ironic

2005-07-07T04:08:00.000-07:00

I find it very convenient that London get's bombed to shit right when the press and media are starting to take serious notice of the Downing Street Memos. I've said it before and I'm saying it again now. George W. Bush is the only terrorist that the world needs to be afraid of. He's trying to cover his sorry ass by orchestrating this attack with the blessing of Tony Blair. There is no way in hell that MI-5 could have dropped the ball on something like this.l

Heh

2005-07-03T22:20:00.000-07:00

I couldn't resist it.

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

2005-07-03T22:12:00.000-07:00

Four Hours Later

2005-06-29T13:51:00.000-07:00

And I'm still bored out of my wits. Now I know why I drink so much beer on my days off.

Bored

2005-06-29T09:57:00.000-07:00

I'm bored sober and there isn't a damn thing I can do about it.

I Have Found The World's Most Dangerous Terrorist

2005-06-14T03:03:00.000-07:00

And the goofy looking piece of shit is in the oval office.

NEWS FLASH!

2005-06-09T02:28:00.000-07:00

Pizza Hut sucks sweaty donkey balls! That is all.

Fucking Bullshit

2005-06-02T12:04:00.000-07:00

It's a crock of shit to have to create a fucking blog just to have to post a comment on someone's POS blogspot blog. Eat shit and die you worthless fucks!
