poor house
apparently the company that they work for just closed the doors on them. They didn't even know until my sister in law (who works for the bank) was informed that she should not cash checks from that particular company. They were bouncing. A few inquiries later and... oh by the way, you don't have a job anymore.
Now my brother will probably find a job. But my father is about to turn 60 in a few months. Who is interested in hiring a 60 year old mechanic? not many people. its so sad i don't know what he is going to do.
It scares me to think about how horrid this economy is getting. I mean out of my nuclear family (parents, 3 brothers and myself) there are only two of us working now. And my brother is pretty sure that his plant is getting shut down soon as well.
How bad is this going to get?
I think that they made all the border crossings to Canada more difficult because they knew that half the population would be interested in ditching this stupid country, like I am right now.

pointless
we got our refund check which meant we bought some things we normally wouldn't at wegmans last evening. even went for rice milk and TWO different kinds of protein/whole foods shakes. wowsers!
typing 'wowsers' just then reminded me of my old housemate steven and it made me miss him.
i had several things i was going to post about, but of course as soon as i go to do so, my mind goes a bit fuzzy.
well at any rate... i'm excited for tonight, (e:peeps) and pizza. social interaction is always a dandy experience. see ya tonight!

three cents
so when you all go out downtown, do you typically use a DD? or call a cab? i hear that the subway closes early.... so on saturday when we go out to marcellas, i want to know if i have to remain sober enough to drive home.
my aunt and cousin are going out to marcellas too. I'm sure they have never been in a big gay dance club.
cleve auto wanted 650 dollars because they said they needed to replace all my rotors and brakes to do an inspection. they didn't mention the part on the inspection rejection paper of a light that was supposedly out.
Steve's in lockport said my front rotors were okay, my front brakes might need replacing by the summer and replaced my rear rotors and brakes for 250. And there is no lights out on my car so we have no idea what the hell that was supposed to be about.
CLEVES AUTO ARE FULL OF JACKASS RIPOFF SKIVVY TOOLBOX BASTARDS!
thats right.

that was gross
Sat afternoon I left work early - i mean i could have really made a killing saturday, but I was so afraid of coughing my lung up on to somebody's shiney new verizon phone that I had to just leave.
Luckily I did because it just got worse from there. I would say I haven't felt that bad since 02 when I got the bronchitus - and even in 02 i didn't feel as though somebody had beat me all over with a rubber mallet.
Coughing, stuffed head to the point i thought my head would explode, my body ached all over, my skin hurt, my lips kept cracking every time i coughed, and i was so weak and dizzy every time i exerted energy. bad stuff.
I've decided i'm okay today - so i can go to work. i neeed to go to work. no ifs ands or buts.
We were supposed to start the floor class for breakdancing tonight but i don't want to go that far. as it is i should have been at a meeting in Lockport before work in East Aurora today. (yeah i know that totally sucks)
i have to go disinfect myself before going out into the world.

anger management
1. The mean lady at Village Laundry who looked at me long enough to take note that I was heading her way with a $20 bill.
"We don't give change here" which is fine except maybe you could take the snatchass additude out of it. Its not my fault your life sucks. I wasn't asking for anything ridiculous, just for two ten dollar bills so I didn't take up all of your damn quarters in the machine. So take your shitty additude and shove it up your bum.
(well i guess i actually took care of that review didn't i?)
2. Cleve-Hill Auto. This one deserves its own post. Later.
Also I am sick again. As in i felt better for all of about a week and now i'm back to gross again. What the hell? I'm sure hanging out in a cigar bar last night didn't help. I didn't realize how much cigarette smoke sucked. I'm glad I quit smoking.
Incidentally.... last night I received a text message from my friend erin. She was at happy hour somewhere down in Queens.
"What is the difference between Jam and Jelly?"
I actually got up to go find out the difference when I received the next text...
"I can't jelly my cock into you"

newz
As I do not have a scanner, I am interested in local news. Buffalonews.com has a little bit of a breaking news section, but it is rather lame.
In Northern NY they have this website
It is a pretty extensive site that gives you weather and info. There is a lot of community participation on the site that really keeps the info up todate. Okay grant it - there is a hell of a lot of advertising on the site, but it really is quite a valubal little site if you are nosy like me.
Anybody know of a site like this for the buffalo area? or if not... anybody interested in creating a site like this?
i think i hear a siren... hurry up!!
