That Could Have Been Me...

why couldn't I be the local blogger breaking the Hoyt affair scandal. estrip could have been famous........

You don't want to be him. Joe Illuzi is a scum bag and most of the shit on his blog is completely fake.

The reason he is after Hoyt is because several years ago, Sam pulled advertisement from his site because Illuzi posted homophobic content. Ever since, he has been after the man. The slime owes over 50k in child support and is doing nothing less than extortion.

According to the mail...I'm Old

So I get mail today from an insurance company that says across it "DO YOU WISH YOU WERE YOUNG AGAIN? YOU STILL HAVE A SECOND CHANCE"...it goes on to say "for a long time we wanted to do something really important for a too-long neglected group of Americans. Especially the ones in yoru ages group. The solid, decent, dependable Americns" it was all about how if i didn't get insurance when I was young I still have a hope. I'm thinking they think I'm older or at least I'm hoping they think that. I mean i don't want to be quarter-century anymore than the next person and I hate hate hate that I am now in like the 25-32 category on surveys instead of 18-24 but is it really time for my to be wishing I was young again? Ugh it makes me feel even worse about being old in 19 days.

I just turned 31, and it was way more depressing than 30. At least 30 has some type of milestone attached to it; now I'm just over 30. I know yall in your 40s & 50s are saying, aw, 30, poor thing, just wait. Let me pity myself for a few minutes...okay I'm done.
Age truly is a relative thing. No matter how grown up you feel, 10 years later you'll look back and say, I was just a kid.

Hey, life begins at 50. You are hardly even born!

Making Old Ladies Go Wow

So there is this lady who is one of my favorite customers even though she is crazy and buys i would say like 8 36 packs of beer a week. Anywho she loves me and only lets me cash her out and to get beer you have to type in a date of birth and so I know her date of brith and it was today. So I decided to call her and wish her a happy birthday! She was sooo excited and then she came into the store later to get some stuff and was telling the other people in line how great i was and that i did that. She is is funny! I love how somehting so simple can make someone feel so good, it is truly great!!! Part of why i love my job is these people, they make it worth it!

Actions like that help create a healthy community atmosphere... As the old bumper sticker says, practice random acts of kindness!
