Getting unemployment benefits takes a heck of a lot longer than you might think.
My last day of paid employment was August 16. Today I was finally given a benefit determination and the payments were supposedly sent to my checking account. That is a really long time. For most Americans that type of wait could be […]
I have only recently begun to focus on taking better care of my body. I made a resolution of sorts that this is the only body I have got so I really need to focus on things like eating better and working out. I decided this a few months back. I suppose it is a […]
Yesterday I went to a comic book and toy collector show. I love going to these types of things for several reasons. There are always people that are dressed up and they either look really cool or really ridiculous. Either way it is a good time. I also like to see all the interesting stuff […]
