I decided to open my blogs again because I have to enter in e-mail addresses for those I want to read them. I'm way too lazy to do that. I haven't been writing blogs lately because I just haven't felt like it. I don't know if I'll continue to write one daily or not. It's not like my life changes much.
I still work at Delmart and Radio Shack. Heather started working at Radio Shack last Thu. She has promise. I started wearing the 3X Radio Shack shirt Ieesha gave me a long time ago. It might be smaller than the 2X I usually wear.
Various people have given me rides to and from work in the last week. The usual suspects did this, Nick, Dan, Jose, Kim, and George. Yesterday I called WE Energies because the pilot light to my oven was never lit when the guy lit my stove and furnace. Less than 5 mins. I got off the phone with them and had already scheduled someone to come out here, a WE Energies truck came in the park. I talked to the guy and he relit my oven. He told me he would let them know and not to come out. Today I found a note from a WE Energies guy saying he was here and my oven was lit, so much for good communication within a company.
Today Nick picked me up. I was dropped off at the D.M.V. I went inside and told them why I was there. I filled out all the necessary paperwork. I sat and waited. My number was called and my picture was taken. I paid the $16.00 fee. I told the guy that I'd be back later to register a car. I sat and waited some more. My name was called and my new driver's license was waiting for me on the counter. Nbody handed it to me or anything, it was just sitting there. I took it. I now had a valid driver's license. Nancy came in while I was waiting for Nick. She was trying to get a state ID. She didn't have the fortune I did. Apparently she was adopted and there was some confusion on the two birth certificates she produced. Nick showed up and picked me up. I sat in the rumble seat.
I was dropped off at Walmart. I went inside and broke a C-note at my bank. I walked to Radio Shack. Heather and Tony came outside just at that time to smoke a cigarette. I asked Tony if he could lend me $100.00 because there were some fees I hadn't taken into consideration that I realized I had to pay when I was at the D.M.V. Tony agreed. We went inside Radio Shack so Heather could finish some of her testing. I showed Ken my new license. After Heather was finished with that portion of her testing she, Tony, and I left for a while. We all got in Heather's car but it wouldn't start. We all got in Tony's car. He drove to Walgreen's and withdrew my loan from the A.T.M. inside. Heather and I just waited in the car. He was only gone for about 2 mins. When he returned he lent me the money I had asked for.
We went to Culver's. I ordered a burger. I don't really know what Heather and Tony ordered. We sat in the largest booth in the southwest corner of the place. Tony paid for everyone's food. I was amazed at this especially since he just loaned me some money. He was insistent. We ate our food in the aforementioned booth. The time drew close to where I had to meet Tim, the owner of the car I was going to buy. I left when the time came. Heather and Tony remained at Culver's.
I walked to the car. It's a red 1995 4dr Dodge Neon. There's no radio. There's a hole where the radio should be with wires hanging out. Tim was at the car in his other car. I got in the Neon and drove it around Delavan. The speedometer didn't work. We went into Auto Zone and asked about a sensor that would fix the speedometer. It was about $35.00. I told Tim I would give him $700.00 instead of the $750.00 we agreed upon. I hadn't known the speedometer didn't work when I agreed to that price. He thought that was fair and we settled on $700.00 as the selling price. He originally put a price of $1000.00 O.B.O. on the car. I gave him seven C-notes when we got back in the car at Auto Zone. He said the title was in his other car at Walmart. We drove there. He let the radio that was in the car go with the sale. It's a Jensen and it's just a radio, no CD player or even a cassette player. He signed the title on my car and removed the license plates. Tim asked what he should put as the seling price. He suggested $10.00. I said $500.00. He wrote $500.00 down on the title. That was that. I owned a car. We shook hands and he left. I walked into Wal-Mart and got two copies of the key. I drove to the D.M.V. again to get the car registed.
When I got to the D.M.V. I noticed Tim's name was nowhere on the title. Two women's names were. I also noticed that the listed odometer reading was about 20,000 miles more that the reading on the car. I didn't much care about either. I thought about it but decided not pursue either issue any further. Iwent inside the D.M.V. and waited a few mins. after stating my business there. I went up to the counter and spoke with the same man I had spoken with before before while the fee for my driver's license. I paid all necessary registration fees and taxes. I submitted the old title and was given a new one. I was given new license plates. I didn't choose to get my personalized plates of "NIKKY" which I've had since 1986. They're $15.00 more than standard plates. I might get those later. The man said that the stickers expire on My 17, 2012 instead of May 31,2012 as it had in the past. I'll have to remember that because in all my yeears of driving the registration always had expired at the end of the month. Now they don't. The man with whom I was paying my fees and taxes knew my mother. He started talking about her. I was giving one word answers to his questions. I drove home without putting the new plates on. I didn't have a screwdriver with me.
When I got home I put the new plates on. I put the stickers on. I walked to George's trailer. I asked him if he could give me a ride to work later. He agreed. I asked him this because I didn't know if Iwould have my car insured by the time I started work tonight. Liability insurance is now mandatory in this state. That started on July 1st of last year.
I walked back to my trailer and called Angie. She works at Amirican Family Insurance in Burligton. She said she would need the first two months' payment. I only had the first month's. She tried everything to go around that but she couldn't find any way. I had talked with her yesterday on the phone about getting insurance. Unfortunately I didn't buy any insurance from her. She said she doesn't work on commission so then I didn't feel too bad.
After I got off the phone with Angie I drove to Delavan. I stopped at the first insurance agency I came across, That was Faytle Insurance who also represents American Family. I talked to Fred at firsy but then Matt came in. I went to high school with Matt. Fred started to look up the information that I had given Angie but then Matt took over. Fred is Matt's father. Matt gave me a quote of $79.37/mo. I told him that Angie had given me a quote of $71.37/mo. He recalculated and gave me that quote. He said that the lesser quote was because of extra medical insurance that isn't legally required but is highly recomended. I chose to not take it. He said that I'm only the second person out of all his policies not to take it. Upon choosing to buy the insurance he said he needed the routing and account numbers of my account because that's the only way I could get insurance without having to pay the first two months' fees. I used his landline telephone and called my bank. Mike answered. He gave me the routing number. I had my account number memorized. I wrote both down. The $71.37 fee will now be taken out of my account automatically each month on the 17, provided it doesn't fall on a weekend or holiday. I paid Matt the first month's fee. I'm in a 6 month policy now. He gave me a receipt and an insurance card. I was now fully legal to drive my car.
I went to Citgo and filled up the car with gas. I bought a new car blue tree air freshener. I put the air freshener on my rear view mirror and threw awat the bullshit Tim had hanging. It was some band's air freshener. I drove home. When I got home I walked to George's trailer and told him I didn'y need a ride. I walked to my trailer and shot up. I called Angie but it was too late. She had already closed. I drove to Delmart. I relived Chad. I did all the duties. I drove home. I think I'm going to drive around some more now. I'm pretty happy. I haven't driven since Oct. 2009.

I called the D.M.V. to inquire to the status of my driver's license. The woman with whom I spoke said that my review had been approved and I could go get my license at any time. She said all I need is $16.00. I voluntarily surrendered my license before the state disqualified it. Had I waited for that it would now cost me $60.00 to get my license back.
I walked to George's trailer to see if he could give me a ride to work on Fri. He was there and said he could. I walked back to my trailer and waited for Nick. He said he would pick me up at 1:00 p.m. At 1:20 I called him. He said he'd pick me up at 2:00 p.m. At 2:15 I called him. He said he would be here in 30 mins. I walked back to George's trailer and asked him if he could give me a ride. He agreed. I walked back to my trailer and called Nick and told him I had another ride.
George drove me to Delmart. I went inside and left 6 bottles of empty water bottles there. Chad was working. I walked to The Smoke Shop. I bought 1.5oz of Gambler Ultra Light Cigarette Tobacco. Cigarette tobacco is more expensive than pipe tobacco but I wanted to see the difference. I walked up to Erika's apt. Her door was locked. I walked down to her mother's apt. Both Erika and her mother were there. I was given the key to Erika's apt. I walked back up and started using her machine to roll cigarettes. I brought tubes from home. The difference in pipe rolling tobacco and cigarette rolling tobacco was apparent immediately. The tubes filled easier. The maching never jammed. There was less waste with cigarette tobacco. The tubes filled faster. I didn'y have a problem or delay at all. There were no stems. I think I'm going to stick with cigarette tobacco from now on. I rolled the entire purchase. It took me less than 20 mins. There was less to clean up too. The 1.5 oz bag yielded 67 cigarettes. Dave told me the bag would make half a cart which is 100 cigarettes. He was mistaken, lying, or rolls cigarettes with not much tobacco in them. Mine are like prerolled store bought cigarettes. They drag fine. I used Zig Zag full flavor tubes and Premier full flavor tubes. I had both kinds with me. I condensed the Zig Zags into the Premier box after I was finished and threw the Zig Zag box away. I'm going to try other brands of ultra light cigarette rolling tobacco when I can afford it.
I took a shower after I was finished rolling the cigarettes. I shot up. I left the apt. Erika wasn't there. As I was leaving I knocked on Erika's mom's door but there was no answer and the door was locked. I locked Erika's door before I left. She took the key, I think. I walked to Delmart and left my bag and insulin there. I put my insulin in the refrigerator. I walked to Sunmist Cafe. I sat in my usual spot. Jessica served me. I got a ham, cheese, and mushroom omlette with pancakes. Pancakes or toast is offered with that meal. I left after I ate and walked back to Delmart. It was still early but I started doing things right away. It's a good thing I did. It was busy all night. I got a lot finished before I started my shift. I relieved Chad. There was a new box for my water bottles so I used that and threw away the old box. I filled the bottles with water. Nothing too exciting happened. It was a warm day and beautiful night so maybe that's why there were so many people out.
I closed the store. I waited for Nick outside. I talked to some dude named Duane outside of Sports City. He said he remembered seeing me and talking to me at an Offspring concert over 10 yrs. ago. How do people remember this shit? Nick showed up and I ended my conversation with Duane. As I was putting my box of water bottles in the back of his station wagon the box broke. The bottles didn't fall and splatter but I had to delicately handle the box as I was loading it in Nick's car. Corey was with him. I was dropped off first and I removed the bottles one by one. Nick went on to drop Corey off.

I called the D.M.V. to see what the status of my license is. While I was on hold Dan showed up to pick me up. I hung up. Corey was with Dan. I was dropped off at Delmart. Chad and Steve were there. They were bitching about the coupons Rick took last night. Chad had said he could. It was all worked out and Chad had a talk with Rick. He won't be getting any more coupons. I washed a dirty dish I brought from home. Neither Chad nor Steve said anything about that.
I left and went to The Smoke Shop. A deliver had just arrived and David and Erin were putting it away. I just hung out for a few mins and then left. I walked up to Erika's apt. Her door was locked but as I was by the door she came and let me in. She was at her mother's apt. and heard me walk up the stairs. I just watched TV for a little while and then went to sleep on Erika's bed. She left and went down to her mother's. She came back up a couple of times. I could hear her.
I woke up and took a shower. Erika was preparing dinner at her mother's place. Erika said I could have some. It was chicken but I didn't think it'd be ready in time for me to eat it and be at work on time. She said I could cook a pizza. I did that. I had a supreme Roma pizza. http://www.bernatellos.com/brands/roma/pizzas I shot up before I ate it. I had walked to La Guanajuato and bought 3 cans of Coke. They're only 50 cents there and I wasn't charged tax. I don't know why. I was going to get a 20oz bottle but they're $1.36. I paid the extra 14 cents for 16 more ounces. I used my Quest card to pay for them. On my last review I only get $12.00/month on my Quest card. On my way back up to Erika's apt. from getting the Cokes I saw Minoica in her car. She has personalized plates. I stood outside her car and talked with her for a few minutes. She's getting married in June.
As I was leaving I stopped at Erika's mom's apt. to tell them I was going. Her mom offered me a plate of chicken. I took it and ate it while standing. There wasn't much on the plate which was a good thing because the chicken was horrid. I set the plate down after I managed to eat it and left.
I walked to Delmart. I relieved Chad. I got there early and started doing stuff right away. I had a lot finished by the time I started my shift. The night was slow. There was a gas delivery. I don't have many of those on my shift. Kim B. called and asked if I was alright. I don't know what prompted her to do that. I told her I was fine.
I closed the store and walked to the office. At first I was going to wait outside but then I walked up to the outside door to see if it was unlocked. It was. I went inside. Corey and Nick S. were in there. I talked with Nick S. We talked about his delivery service and prostitution. I suggested he combine the two. He can call his service, "Whores To Doors". I thought of that and want it trademarked. We were just talking shit. His delivery service is called Grid Runner. http://www.gridrunnerdelivery.com/ Corey and I went outside. Nick K. finally showed up and we got in the car. I was dropped off first on the road by my trailer park and walked home.

I walked to the road to meet Dan. He picked me up. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Delmart. Heather was working. I brought 1 box of 6 water bottles inside. I was going to give Heather a grey polo shirt that she'll need at Radio Shack but she said she already has gotten some.
I left and went to Circle of Friends. I talked with Robin for a while. I asked her if she has a cigarette machine for sale. She said she doubts one will ever come in. I went to Delavan Gold & Diamond Exchange. He was just closing. He said he doesn't take in cigarette machines. I went back to Circle of Friends but I didn't stay too much longer.
I walked to Erika's apt. Her mother was there when I arrived. I just sat and watched the last part of "Unforgiven". It was on broadcast TV. That's one of my favorite movies. I can't believe it's been 19 yrs. since it was released. After the movie was over I took a shower.
I left and walked to Delmart. Heather wanted a cigarette so I worked the register while she went out to smoke. When she got back in I shot up in the back hallway. I put 2 Hot Pockets in the microwave before I shot up. I ate them after they were finished cooking. I started doing the duties right away. It was still an hour before I was scheduled to start. I got a lot done before I even started my shift. It's a good thing I did too because the night was busier than I thought it would be. It was steady and busy all night. Some guy wanted the coupons from the Sunday papers so I let him take them. I shot up again, with a lesser dose, later in the evening. Cedric Square, a guy I've known a while, said his brother might have a car for me. I don't know if I know his brother. We'll see what happens.
I closed the store and waited for Nick. He eventually showed up. Corey was in the car but Carly wasn't. Nick dropped Corey off at The Huberdorm before he dropped me off.

I walked over to George's trailer yesterday. He was outside working on a phone line. The workers who are here putting in the new water pipes for the park had damaged his phone wire and they gave him a new one. He was installing it. Some guy named Bob was there too. Bob was on a bicycle. I put my one box of water bottles in George's car's trunk. I got my mail and walked it back to my trailer. I didn't get anything good in the mail. I walked back to George's trailer. After a few minutes George went inside and Bob rode off on his bike. I stayed outside. I walked down to one of the workers and asked if they were the water guys. They weren't. They were the gas guys. I think they're the same ones I asked yesterday, well on Thursday. I walked back to George's trailer. He said he couldn't get his answering machine to work. I went inside and hooked it up. He said he hooked it up just the way I did. I then noticed it wasn't plugged in. He plugged it in. It worked then. He said he felt stupid for not plugging it in. He drove me to Radio Shack.
I brought my box of water bottles in. Tony was working. I punched in and dealt with customers. I started to put items from the order from Thu. away. Ken arrives. All of us worked on putting the order away. I put away the small parts in the parts drawers and Tony and Ken put the other stuff away. We made tags for the new items and put them up. Tony went to lunch and returned. Ken went to lunch and returned. We just dealt with customers for the rest of the day. It was steady but slow. Tony always bitches that there's not enough business.
On Thursady night Tony went to do an inventory in Fox Lake. Apparently Nathan and Jessica called Richard saying Tony was drinking on the job and offering them beer. This isn't true. At least Tony said it's not true and I believe him. Nathan is the manager at the Lake Geneva store and Jessica manages somewhere but I'm not sure where. There seems to be a schism forming. Tony thinks Jessica wants to manage the Delavan store because she's moving near here. She's going out with Andrew, who is a M.I.T. at Lake Geneva. Andrew will get a Kenosha store soon. It is rumored that Jessica has fucked her way through most of the managers in the district. Tony and Tera aren't included in that. Richard called Tony and Tony explained what had happened in Fox Lake. Richard was all cool with it.
I got a free cup of hazelnut coffee at Panera by using the cup that was saved at by me at Radio Shack. I returned. I shot up in the back room. I walked to Culver's and got a bacon cheeseburger meal plus another bacon cheese burger. I got sweet potato fries with that. I ate it there. I split payment between cash and my check card. I walked back to Radio Shack. Tony left. Ken and I just dealt with customers for the rest of the night. I sold a Boost phone.
I filled the bottles with water. I got a cart from Wal-Mart's parking lot and brought it into the back hallway of Radio Shack via the back door. I put the box of water in the cart. I punched out 1 min. early just as I had last night. There's no clock on the computer so I have to guess at the time. I left through the back door pushing my cart of water.
I walked to Wal-Mart. Doris was on break when I arrived. Sally was working so I asked her if she could give me a ride home. She said yes. When Doris got back I told her that Sally was going to give me a ride. Sally got off 30 mins. before Doris anyway. I aimlessly walked around Wal-Mart until Sally got off. While I was waiting by the door for Sally Dawn came in. She gave me a ride home a couple of weeks ago. We briefly talked because Sally was leaving. I put my water in Sally's car. She gave me a ride home. I gave her $1.00 for gas. I offered more but she refused.
This is the last blog I'll make public. If you want to continue reading follow me here. Don't be afraid to ask to read my blogs. I'll approve you if you follow me here.

I got a free cup of hazelnut coffee at Panera by using the cup that was saved at by me at Radio Shack. I returned. I shot up in the back room. I walked to Culver's and got a bacon cheeseburger meal plus another bacon cheese burger. I got sweet potato fries with that. I ate it there. I split payment between cash and my check card. I walked back to Radio Shack. Tony left. Ken and I just dealt with customers for the rest of the night. I sold a Boost phone.
I filled the bottles with water. I got a cart from Wal-Mart's parking lot and brought it into the back hallway of Radio Shack via the back door. I put the box of water in the cart. I punched out 1 min. early just as I had last night. There's no clock on the computer so I have to guess at the time. I left through the back door pushing my cart of water.
I walked to Wal-Mart. Doris was on break when I arrived. Sally was working so I asked her if she could give me a ride home. She said yes. When Doris got back I told her that Sally was going to give me a ride. Sally got off 30 mins. before Doris anyway. I aimlessly walked around Wal-Mart until Sally got off. While I was waiting by the door for Sally Dawn came in. She gave me a ride home a couple of weeks ago. We briefly talked because Sally was leaving. I put my water in Sally's car. She gave me a ride home. I gave her $1.00 for gas. I offered more but she refused.

Today and tomorrow will be the last blogs I make public. If you want to continue reading these, create an account and follow me here.
I walked to George's trailer to remind him to give me a ride tomorrow. He said he'd write himself a note. Dan picked me up afew minutes later. I walked to the road to meet him. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Radio Shack. Tony and Ken were working. I brought in 1 box of empty water bottles.
I started hanging the tags that I didn't get to last night. These tags were from the price audit. While I was doing this Ken put away the main order. In addition to the main order the force feed order came today too. All Ken and I did today was put shit away.
Tony left to do an inventory. I shot up later than usual in the back room. I was delayed by customers and by working on the order. I walked to Subway after I shot up and punched out. I got a teriyaki chicken sandwich with buffalo sauce. I got this sandwich two times last week. I love it. I got the meal. I had to walk it back to Radio Shack and eat in the back room because there was a conference call. I ate while listening to the conference call. Nathan, the manager at the Lake Geneva store, held the call. It was about the new service plan for postpaid cell phones. It wasn't anything spectacular.
Erica, the woman who got the Evergreen cell phone last night, called and said she couldn't get the $150.00 needed for the deposit. I tried to return the phone but couldn't figure out how to do that. Ken tried the same thing but he couldn't figure it out either. Tony just said to have the bank short $150.00 for today. He'll probably take care of it tomorrow.
I started putting away stuff from the force feed order. The main order had been put away already. Two guys came in and I sold them a postpaid phone in Jose's name. He had already worked with them. I kept putting stuff away from the force feed order until it was time to close. I did manage to sell some stuff though. I went 4/6 on service plans today.
Earlier in the day Ken, Tony, and I tried to figure out where Blanca's phone is. We looked at her receipt and found out she's only paid $30.00 for it. Radio Shack is giving her a $70.00 gift card because they don't take into consideration the $40.00 rebate she got when she bought it.
Heather's application is still under review. It's now sent to an HR dept. who will make the decision on if she's hired or not.
Ken and I didn't complete putting the force feed order away. I'll work on that tomorrow. I did fill my 6 bottles of water and got a cart from Wal-Mart's parking lot. I brought the cart into the store and used the back door to do that. I left out the back the door when we closed pushing the cart to Wal-Mart.
When I got to Wal-Mart I asked Melody if she could give me a ride home. She said she could. I asked Doris too but Melody won't be there tomorrow and Doris will. Doris will give me a ride home tomorrow. She wrote it down in her notebook.
Melody had her keys with her so I walked to her car and put my box of water in it. I had to move things around. Her car is quite crowded with stuff. There's coats, hangers, clothing, baskets, and other stuff in her car. It looks like she lives in there. I walked back into Wal-Mart after I had managed to get my water in her car. I walked around the aisles aimlessly for about 45 mins. I was by the bench when Melody got off work. She drove me home.

Number 1706-Thu.-May 5,2011-1:37 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
Chad picked me up. I was dropped off at Radio Shack. Ken was working. I brought my 2 boxes of water bottles in and left and walked to my bank at Wal-Mart. I cashed in a bowl of change. I had $30.12. I walked tp Panera. I looked for cars for sale in the Wal-Mart and Kohl's parking lot but there were none. I got a large cup of hazelnut coffee and an everything bagel at Panera. The bagel was free. I wanted cream cheese but I didn't want to pay for it. The cream chesse costs more than the bagel. I got some butter, which was by the coffee, and sat down and ate the bagel. I put butter on it. I refilled the coffee I had drank and walked to Radio Shack.
From the moment I walked in I knew what the day was going to be like. I filled my bottles with water before I punched in. Once I punched in I started putting up price tags from the price audit. There was a shitload of incorrect prices. The new software hadn't updated the new prices. Some things went down in price but most went up. This is all I did all day. That and scan items with gun for the price audit.
Ken went to lunch. After he returned he put away some cell phones that had come in. I started scanning the east perimeter nearest the door. There were a lot of incorrect prices in the area I scanned. Jose showed up. I sent the prices and Jose put up the new tags while I continued to scan the perimeter. Ken left but gave me his keys before he did. When I got done with the next section I sent the scanned prices. I shot up in the back room. I punched out for lunch and walked to China 1. I ate General Tso's chicken all day meal there. I had called in my order before I shot up. I walked back to Radio Shack. I continued where I had left off. Jose was still putting up tags from the last section. I scanned around until after the computer area. I sent the prices in and created the tags for the incorrectly priced items. Jose sold a prepaid phone but credited me with the sale. I guess he did this because I had a prepaid phone returned on me already for this month. He also said he's having a killer month.
A long time friend, Erica not Erika, came in She bought an Evergreen cell phone for AT&T. I set it up. There was a $150.00 deposit required and she had a credit card. I took in the deposit but I accidently hit cash. She didn't have the cash. She said she would return tomorrow with it. I kept the phone and trust her to return tomorrow. I hope she does. The phone she got was the only Everygreen we had in stock and it came in the delivery that came today.
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-A667ZGAATT
Jose was scanning the remainder of the store while I sold the cell phone to Erica. Once again this is a case of people with similar names being around me. Jose sent the prices in and printed the tags for the incorrectly priced items. I hung the tags for the item that I could find but there were about 5 I couldn't find. Jose hung those. He printed the tags for the remainder of the store but there wasn't enough time to hang them. I took out the trash. Jose vacuumed. I brought my water into Jose's car. I closed the store and Jose drove me home.

Number 1705-Wed.-May 4,2011-1:03 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
Somebody knocked on my door as I was getting ready. I normally don't put down my toothbrush and answer my door but I thought it mught be the water guy. When I got to my door nobody was there. I called out and a guy from WE Energies came from around my trailer. He said they had turned off my gas and if needed anything relit. I figured I might as well have him relit the furnace, stove, and water heater so I let him in. He relit the stove first. He then relit the furnace. He left but returned less than a minute later to relight my water heater. I was getting ready and answering the door during this time. WE Energies actually stands for Wisconsin Energies, clever, huh?
http://www.we-energies.com/
I walked out of my trailer because there's no way Nick could have gotten his car here. WE Energies had their trucks blocking off the road. There were trenches dug too. I met Nick at the mailboxes. He got there when I did. It was perfect timing.
I was dropped off at Delmart. Both Corey and Nick went inside. Blanca was working. Chad and Steve were there. Brians coincidently showed up. I figured we could call Heather and Darlene and it could be a company party. I put my insulin and two sandwiches I brought from home into the refrigerator. I had to do this because Erica's refrigerator isn't working. I just found out that Erika spells her name as such. I think I'm going to change my name to Al and spell it Dgonetapfqua. That'll fuck people up.
I left Delmart and went to Circle Of Friends. Robin was there, of course. Mandy was there too. I was going to buy a roll of mints but I didn't have any cash on me. Robin said the roll was 25 cents. I presented my check card. She laughed. I asked if I could owe her. She said yes. Mandy left. Robin had donations that had to be moved into the basement. I offered to help her do that. I brought down some boxes and she handed me more boxes from the top of the stairs. We got the stuff down there pretty quickly. She said I didn't owe her for the mints after that. She even said to take more candy but I didn't.
I walked around aimlessly for a few mins. I walked back to Delmart and got a cup of coffee. That's when Brian showed up, not before. I went into Hero's Ink. Hero's Ink is a comic book and gaming shop. They cater to people who play Dungeons And Dragons and Magic and games of that nature. I just walked around the store for a few mins. Nothing there really interested me.
http://www.herosink.com/
I went to Erika's place after I left Hero's Ink. I slept in her bed. I got up and took a shower. I left and walked to Delmart. I shot up in the back hallway. Steve was still there. He was on the phone in the office while I shot up. After I did that I ate the sandwiches I had brought. I ate behind the counter. Each sandwich was corned beef and pastrami on white bread with lettuce, tomato, and onion. I put horseradish and brown mustard on them. I love this sandwich. Steve left. After I was finished eating I worked on the coffee area and did all the duties there. I then went into the bathroom and brushed my teeth. I had brushed my teeth at Erika's place but I figured customers wouldn't like my onion and horseradish breath. I'd be hard pressed if an old girlfriend was in town and wanted to kiss me. That never happens though.
I managed to clean the bathrooms and take out the inside trash before I clocked into work. I relieved Chad. Tony showed up and got gas. He also brought my carton of cigarettes I gave him the money for last week.
The night was steady. It was slower tonight than it was last night. Tuesdays are usually busier than Mondays but not this week. It was cold tonight so maybe that was a factor. Dawn, another Dawn, not the one that gave me a ride home recently, showed up with a computer problem. I gave her Nick's number. She called immediately. I don't know what became of that. Ken showed up and got gas. He didn't stay. Nothing too exciting happened.
After I closed the store I walked to the office. The outside door was unlocked so I went inside. The door to Nick and Dan's office was locked. I knocked. Corey answered and let me in. I shot up with a little extra insulin because I had been eating Twinkies and drinking soda at Delmart. Corey and I exited the building. We smoked a cigarette and talked. Nick showed up. Carly was with him. Corey and I got in the car. I think Nick said Dawn only wanted some advice over the phone. Nick dropped me off in the road and I walked home. He then went on to drop Corey off at The Huberdorm.

Number 1704-Tue.-May 3,2011-1:21 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
I'm about to change my blogs' availability. There's only one follower here and I'd like to know who reads these. If you wish to continue reading my blogs, start following me. My blogs won't be open to the general public soon. I don't know exactly when I'll do this but it will be soon.
I called Dr. Osborne's office. I talked with Sherilynn. She said that Dr. Osborne faxed the paper to the state so I can get my driver's license back. She said she was pretty sure of that but it would be faxed today if it already hadn't. I can see why it takes a month and a week to sign and fax a paper in or even send it via postal mail. Dr, Osborne might have used it as a paper airplane, She might have gotten it confused with a crossword puzzle she had took a break on. She might have kept it by her toilet just in case she ran out of toilet paper. I mean it only takes 2 seconds to sign a paper and less than a minute to either fax it or send it via postal mail. These are the only reasons I can think of as to why it took her a month and a week to fax it in.
I walked to Kim D's. trailer. I asked her if she could give me a ride to Radio Shack on Fri. She said that she's working a long day. I reminded her that she said her long days on Fridays were over. She thought about and said she might be able to give me a ride. I said I'd ask George. I walked right next door. George said he would be able to give me a ride on Fri. if I called and reminded him early Fri. morning. I said I'd call him as soon as I got up. He gave me his number and I left. I walked back to Kim D's trailer and told her George would give me a ride.
Nick picked me up. Corey was with him. Nick had to go back the way he started to come in my trailer park because there was construction equipment blocking the path. When he did get here a worker came by my house. He said he was preparing for new piping. I told him that there's a broken pipe under my trailer and asked if they'd fix it. He said to talk with the supervisor. I didn't have time then because the supervisor was across the park.
I was dropped off at the laundromat in Delavan. I put my laundry in the washing machines. I walked to the office and was going to put my detergent and fabric softener there but Nick was there. He unlocked his car and I put those items in his car. I was going to get a pastry at Beil's Bakery but they were closed. They're only opened Wed.-Fri. from 10:00 a.m.-2:p.m. WTF kind of hours is that? Open 4 hours on 3 days? Do they not want business? I walked across the street to Cake Pastel. I bought a plain flakey type thing. It was more air than food. I walked back to the laundromat. Nancy showed up to do laundry. She and I talked but not too much. We went outside to smoke a cigarette. She was texting or doing something on her phone the entire time, even when she was inside the laundromat.
I put my laundry in the dryers. My bedding dried first and I let it cool and then put it in the plastic garbage bag I brought it in. I walked to Nick's car. It was still there and the back hatch was unlocked. I put the back in there and walked back to the laundromat. I got my clothes out of the dryer. I folded what needed folding and put it in the bag. I brought a paper along to put the stuff I was going to bring to Erica's. I said see you later to Nancy and brought the bag to Nick's car. It was still there and still unlocked. I locked the back hatch after I deposited my last bag.
I walked to The Smoke Shop. Both Erin and Dave were there. I just hung out. I inquired about cherry cigarettes. Dave gave me a cigarette with drops of some cherry flavored liquid on it. It wasn't very good. I did realize that the cigarette he gave me was rolled in a Gambler Tube. I think that I roll my cigarettes too tightly. I don't think it matters what tube is used. I'll try to roll my cigrettes a little looser. The brand of the liquid is called Tasty Puff and it's called Chick Magnet Cherry. I'm sure this shit is used for other things besides cigarettes. Sure is a catchy tune on their website. lol
http://www.tastypuff.com/
After I enjoyed my Chick Magnet Cherry cigarette I walked up to Erica's apt. I didn't have any chicks following me. I walked in and Erica was there. She said, "Were you just smoking a Chick Mahnet Cherry cigarette?" I said yes and she threw me down, tore off my clothes, and started having sex with me. Just kidding, nothing close to that happened. I lied down on her couch. I moved to her bed and slept. Her mother came in just before I slept. She dropped off a dish. Erica crocheted while I slept.
I got up and took a shower. I shot up after I got out. I left and dropped off my bag of stuff and my insulin at Delmart. I walked to Sunmist Cafe. I sat in my usual booth. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger deluxe, that comes with fries and soup, and another bacon cheeseburger. I ate it all. Jessica was my waitress, of course. I walked to Delmart.
I relieved Chad. It was busy all night. I had to keep moving just to get everything finished but I did. Maranda showed up but only briefly. She hasn't been in in a while.
After I closed I walked to the office. The outside door was locked. I just waited outside for Nick. Corey came out after a few mins. Nick showed up. Carly was with him. Corey and I got in the car. Nick dropped me off first. I took my laundry out of the back and then he went on to drop Corey off at The Huberdorm.

It wasn't very good. I did realize that the cigarette he gave me was rolled in a Gambler Tube. I think that I roll my cigarettes too tightly. I don't think it matters what tube is used. I'll try to roll my cigrettes a little looser. The brand of the liquid is called Tasty Puff and it's called Chick Magnet Cherry. I'm sure this shit is used for other things besides cigarettes. Sure is a catchy tune on their website. lol

After I enjoyed my Chick Magnet Cherry cigarette I walked up to Erica's apt. I didn't have any chicks following me. I walked in and Erica was there. She said, "Were you just smoking a Chick Mahnet Cherry cigarette?" I said yes and she threw me down, tore off my clothes, and started having sex with me. Just kidding, nothing close to that happened. I lied down on her couch. I moved to her bed and slept. Her mother came in just before I slept. She dropped off a dish. Erica crocheted while I slept.
I got up and took a shower. I shot up after I got out. I left and dropped off my bag of stuff and my insulin at Delmart. I walked to Sunmist Cafe. I sat in my usual booth. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger deluxe, that comes with fries and soup, and another bacon cheeseburger. I ate it all. Jessica was my waitress, of course. I walked to Delmart.
I relieved Chad. It was busy all night. I had to keep moving just to get everything finished but I did. Maranda showed up but only briefly. She hasn't been in in a while.
After I closed I walked to the office. The outside door was locked. I just waited outside for Nick. Corey came out after a few mins. Nick showed up. Carly was with him. Corey and I got in the car. Nick dropped me off first. I took my laundry out of the back and then he went on to drop Corey off at The Huberdorm.

Number 1703-Mon.-May 2,2011-1:01 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
On Sat. Dan forgot to pick me up. I called Nick and he came out and picked me up. We stopped at Anchor In. He got a taco dinner. I didn't get anything. I talked with Maria, the owner of Anchor In, very briefly through the screened window. I went to school with her and always thought she was cool. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Lopezs-Anchor-In/75039454695?ref=ts
While Nick was eating his food I crossed the road and checked out the cars at Delavan Auto. http://delavanautosales.com/ I asked if they had any cars under $1000.00. The guy I was talking with said he just sold one but to check back later. He said their inventory is always changing. I walked back across the street and Nick was finished eating. He then ordered a banana ice cream cone. I just waited while he ate the damn thing. He then ordered a taco sald for Nick S. We got that and left. We spent way too much time there than I would have liked.
I was dropped off at Delmart. I brought 2 boxes of water bottles in. Blanca was working. I asked her if she wanted to work until 5:00 p.m. instead of me coming in at 4:00 p.m. She agreed. I wanted that extra hour to eat and I didn't want to feel rushed. I left and walked to The Smoke Shop. Erin was working. I bought a box of Zig Zag full flavor king size tubes. http://zigzag.com/filter-tubes.html I had just smoked a Premier cigarette before I Nick picked me up and I didn't get the drag I wanted out of it. I figured I'd try Zig Zags. I'll probably try the only other brand they carry next.
I walked up to Erica's apt. Erica let me use her machine and I rolled cigarettes. I exhausted all my tobacco. I was going to buy more but I didn't. The Zig Zag tubes are ok. They don't have the draw I'd like though. If I had to rank tubes it would be like this: 1. Top, 2. Zig Zag, 3. Premier, 4. Gambler. I haven't tried any other tubes yet but I will. I almost refuse to smoke a cigarette in a Gambler tube. I can't get any draw out of it.
After I finished rolling my cigarettes I took a shower. I walked to Market Street sanwiches. I ordered a 2 hot dog basket. I got another hot dog with that for a total of 3. I got everything on them. They were Chicago dogs. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago-style_hot_dog
I walked to Delmart after I ate. I relieved Blanca. She was getting on my nerves because she was bitching about how I do my job which had no bearing on her shift. I just let it go. She was going to leave soon anyway. The night was steady. I did all the duties. Nothing exciting happened.
After I closed I walked to Erica's apt. She was still up and Brad was there. Brad was eating. We stayed up for a few mins. but not for long. I brushed my teeth and went to bed. Erica slept in Brad's room with him and I slept in her bed. I slept well. I slept for 12.5 hrs.
I got up and just hung out. I walked to La Guanajuato and got a bottle of Coke. It was a real Coke with sugar and in a glass bottle. It's imported from Mexico. It cost $1.70 for 16oz but it tastes so much better. I opened it with their bottle opener which is on a string hanging from one of the cooler doors.
I walked back to Erica's. I just hung out until I took a shower. I watched the first period of the Red Wings/Sharks hockey game. The Sharks lead 1-0 at the end of the 1st period. I hope they win the series. I like The Sharks but I hate The Red Wings more. The Red Wings are the archrival of The Blackhawks. I wanted to write a blog but the library is closed on Sundays.
I left after I showered. I walked to Delmart. I started doing the duties right away. I got 2 Hot Pockets but then I noticed the microwave didn't work. I used the pizza oven to cook them. I ate them. I ate another. I relieved Heather. The night was slow. I had everything done pretty early. I filled the bottles with water. After I closed I waited outside for Nick. He showed up after a while. I loaded the water into his station wagon. Corey and Carly were with him. I was dropped off and Nick went on to drop Corey off.

Number 1702-Sat.-Apr.30,2011-1:37 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
I had to talk Rob into my trailer park. I was on his cell phone with him until he turned in. He gave me a ride to Wal-Mart. I cashed my Delmart check there and withdrew more money to suppliment my rent payment. I went to the service desk and got a money order for my rent. I filled out the money order and enveloped it at the counter. I brought an envelope from home. After I left I was going to walk to Panera to get a cup of hazelnut coffe but my Zippo wouldn't light my cigarette. I thought it was out of fluid because Zippos will light in in the wind. I know. I've done it. I walked back into Wal-Mart and bought a 2 pack of Bic lighters. There wasn't enough time to go to Panera so I just walked to Radio Shack. It was a beautiful day out today, sunny and 65 degrees F.
http://www.zippo.com/
http://www.biclighter.com/
Heather had just gotten to Radio Shack when I did. We walked in together. It would have seemed like she had given me a ride. Our arrival was that coincidental. Richard was there. Tony was there. I punched in and worked the sales floor while Tony prepared for the interview with Heather. Richard was in the back room writing Tony's evaluation so Heather's interview started later than scheduled, about 20 mins. later. Just before Heather went in the back room for her interview, some guy named Ryan came in. He was interested in a cell phone. He had applied to Sprint about 2 years ago but his account hadn't been cleared yet. I called Sprint to clear it. Tony called too after I got no result. I called Sprint again after Tony got no result. This time Ryan's account was cleared and he was approved for 3 lines. He wanted to get 2 cell phones, one for him and one for his girlfriend. I set those up. Ryan had to leave to get his state ID but he returned in about 20 mins. Richard came out and convinced Ryan to get a 3rd cell phone for his mother. I set that one up too. Ryan chose a grey Optimus and two purple Optimi were chosen for the women. http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/phone_details.jsp?prodId=dvc2260014prd&deviceSKUId=22400107&flow=AAL&planSKUId=null&tabId=dt_phones&ptn=
I had a triple new account cell phone sale on one ticket. That's like hitting a trifecta on a $100.00 bet at Radio Shack. They didn't have much money with them so the only accessory they got was screen protectors. I ran Ryan and his girlfriend for a Radio Shack credit card but neither were approved. Richard bitched to Tony about the lack of accessories on the sale but there's really nothing I could do. The shit ran downstream and Tony talked to me about it but he was just relaying Richard's messege. Richard didn't stick around long enough to talk to me. He went to the Lake Geneva store as soon as Heather's and Rob's interview was over. Nathan called me from there to get numbers and he said that Richard was giving me accolades there. He was bitching to Tony and then exalting me at another store, WTF??
After Heather's interview Rob came in for his interview. That didn't take too long. Heather was in like Flynn from the day she filled out her application. We went through the motions with Rob because he gave me a ride today. Rob had been walking around the strip mall and he said he was playing games at Game Stop from the time he dropped me off until the time he came in for his interview. Richard left after the interviews were over. I was still setting up the 3 cell phones for Ryan.
The rest of the day was steady. Jose showed up. Tony went to lunch. Tony returned from lunch. I sold a Blackberry for Boost but there was an E.S.N. swap on it so I didn't get any SPIFF. I shot up in the back room. I punched out for lunch and walked to Subway. On my walk to Subway I have to cross an exit road from Wal-Mart. It's a one way road. A police car with its lights on drove over the median on Hwy. 50 and came in the wrong way on the exit road. He was doing about 35 m.p.h. and the speed limit there is 10 m.p.h. This happened right in front of me. Had I walked into the road when I had planned to and not seen or heard the cop car, I would have been killed. The cop has the sirens on so I had to deal with the loud noise 5 ft. away from. I hate that.
I ordered the same sandwich today that I ordered yesterday. It was that good. I got the meal. Stream wasn't working. She had already left. The woman who was working likes me, a lot, too much. She always smiles when she sees me, always says hi, and always makes conversation with me. I just ordered my sandwich and ate the meal there.
I walked back to Radio Shack and punched in from lunch. Tony left. The rest of the night was slow except for Jose selling two new lines to one customer. The guy got two Rumor Touches, one for him and one for his girlfriend. They're both purple. He wanted a blue one but we didn't have any. His girlfriend kept giving him shit about the color, essentially saying it was feminine. She was a piece of work. She was lous, pushy, and obnoxious. I don't know what this guy sees in her. She's no beaty queen either. Her daughter came in and she was far more classy than her mother. Everytime her mother said something crass, the daughter would look at me as if to apolgize for her behavior. This happened frequently. The guy did this a few times too. The woman was oblivious to this.

The rest of the night was slow. I sat in the back room for a while. I closed the store and walked to Wal-Mart. I forgot to give Jose my keys but he has a key now so I think it'll be ok. At Wal-Mart I talked to Melody at her register. I asked her for a ride and she agreed. Heather came by me. She asked if Tony and Richard said anything. I told her she was in. I also advised her to get black shoes and a grey polo. She said she'll try to scrounge up the money for that.
I shopped. I bought all sorts of shit. I can't list everything I bought. The list is too long. I bought food and toiletries mostly. I couldn't check out at Melody's register because she was in a 20 items or less lane. After I checked out I waited by the bench for her. Some woman was already sitting on the bench and she was fat so I didn't bother to share it with her. I talked to the door greeter, Dawn. I went outside to smoke a cigarette. I went back in and waited for Melody. She got off work and I loaded my stuff into her car. Her caf is full of shit. I could barely get all my shit in her car. It's like she lives in there. I'm lucky I didn't have my water bottles with me. She had to pull her car out of its stall because she was parked right next to a crub and there wasn't room for me to accomodate the cart. She drove me home. She helped unload my stuff. I went inside and came back out with a flashlight. I wanted to make sure I didn't leave any bags and that nothing fell out. Her interior light doesn't work.

Number 1701-Fri.-Apr.29,2011-3:50 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
I walked to Kim D's.trailer. I asked her if she could give me a ride tomorrow. She said she couldn't because she has a long work day. I asked if Gearge could give me a ride. She said she would talk with him and find out. She said she would call me at work. I walked back to my trailer.
Dan picked me up. Corey was with him. I was dropped off at Wal-Mart. I went to my bank there and withdrew $50.00. Melody was next to me at the bank and we talked for a moment after we were finished. She said she was therre last night but was in the back doing computer work. I walked to Panera. I got a large cup of hazelnut coffee. The cup cost $1.99 and I paid $2.00. I motioned that I didn't want the change. The woman behind the counter asked what I wanted to do with the 1 cent change. I asked if there was any organized charity I could donate to. She pointed to a charity box collecting change on the counter. I said to donate to that and I assume she did. I didn't see her put the penny in though. I don't even know what charity it represented. I got my coffee and walked to Radio Shack.
Tony was working. For the beginning part of my shift I didn't do much. Tony sold 2 iPhones. The woman was already getting one but the nam had to be convinced. They were both iPhone 3GS 8Gs. http://www.apple.com/iphone/iphone-3gs/ He transferred the contacts on both. The contacts were easier to transfer on these phones because he did it electronically.
After he sold the iPhones I started to put away the order. I didn't get very far because of customers. I gave Tony the $50.00 for a carton of cigarettes. The'te cheaper in Illimois and he lives there. Some guy came in and said Social Distortion is playing at The Rave on May 7. I asked him if he was going and he said yes. I asked if he would take and he said yes. Hopefully it'll work out. I know him from back in the day but I don'y remember his name. The last two times I saw Social Distortion I got kicked out for being body passed. At least one of times it was a free show for me so I wasn't as upset as I would have been if I paid for it.

I shot up in the back room I punched out for lunch. I walked to Subway. Stream was working and so was the guy I saw at the Subway at Wal-Mart last night. I ordered a 12" teriyaki chicken sandwish meal. I asked if it was free cookie Thursday and Stream would have given me one but free cookies are really on a different day. I didn't accept the cookie. I ate the food there and Stream and I talked. It was nice to talk with her. She's cool and nice and she and I used to work together about 18 yrs. ago at a gas station/ Subway. I walked back to Radio Shack after I was finished eating.
Tony and I busted out the order when I got back. I also put the bottles of water into Tony's car. I had filled the bottles yesterdaybut left them at Radio Shack until tonight. We put the order away and I created the price tags for the new shit. Not only did I create the tags for the new stuff in the order today, but I also created the tags for the display of the new planogram Tony created yesterday. It took until almost closing to do this.
Tony said Kim D. stopped by while I was at Subway. He said that George couldn't give me a ride but she could if I go to her trailer. I called Rob to see if he could give me a ride because I'd have to get a ride from Kim D. 2 hrs before I had to be at work. I figured I could sleep id Rob could give me a ride. He said he could.
I vacuummed and took out the trash. I threw away the old vacuum tonight. It had been sitting in the back hallway in the vacuum box ever since we had gotten the new vacuum until tonight. Tony was going to send it back and get $25.00 but he never did. I threw it away tonight because Richard, the distrct manager, is coming tomorrow. After I threw away the vacuum, I swept the back hallway.
We closed the store and Tony and I went to Radio Shack's and dropped the deposit. We went to Delmart after that and I picked up my paycheck from there. Tony drove me home after that.
I walked to Kim D's. trailer. I talked with her and told her I had a ride tomorrow.

Tony was going to send it back and get $25.00 but he never did. I threw it away tonight because Richard, the distrct manager, is coming tomorrow. After I threw away the vacuum, I swept the back hallway.
We closed the store and Tony and I went to Radio Shack's and dropped the deposit. We went to Delmart after that and I picked up my paycheck from there. Tony drove me home after that.
I walked to Kim D's. trailer. I talked with her and told her I had a ride tomorrow.

Number 1700-Thu.-Apr.28,2011-1:48 a.m. C.D.T. (1)
Chad picked me up. For a time I thought he had forgotten because his cell phone wasn't answered. I called his home phone and Kim B. answered. She said he was on his way. She said his cell phone was in the closet.
I was dropped off at Radio Shack. I brought 2 boxes of empty water bottles inside. Tony was working. After I put the boxes in the back hallway I walked to Wal-Mart. I bought hydrogen peroxide, foot cream, and Listerine. I bought one large bottle and one small bottle of hydrogen peroxide and a small bottle of Listerine. I'm going to take the small bottles to Erica's the next time I go over there. I also got 2 bottles of NPH.
I walked to Panera. I got a large cup of hazelnut coffee and a cobblestone muffin. Aiesha was there. She just got back from California yesterday. She was at the counter placing her order and I realized it was her when she turned and I was still in line. I hugged her and welcomed her back. I asked if she was going to sit down inside and she said yes but that she was going to talk with someone. That was ok by me. I sat at a table and ate the muffin and drank my coffee. After I finished the muffin I filled my cup again and left. I saw Aiesha talking to some woman. I think she was being interviewed for a job there.
I walked back to Radio Shack. Tony said that I could have a cell phone sale. I didn't argue with him. The guy came in right away. Tony had already spoken with him. I sold the phone. Tony transferred the guy's contacts from his old phone to his new phone. He did this manually one by one. The guy had 12 contacts.
After the guy left I just helped customers. I filled the bottles with water. I took two A.T.G.s. One was on the new dervice plans for cell phones. There is a variety of options now. Radio Shack's new service plans for cell phones can cover everything except loss, theft, or purposeful damage. Let's be real though. Who in his/her right mind would say he/she took a hammer to his/her cell phone even if that was the case. The other A.T.G. was on cameras. I had to take both more than once because I didn't pass the quiz on either the first time.
After I finshed the A.T.G.s I hung around the sales floor and helped customers. Tony worked on planograms. We have a cascading display now. It looks ok but it hold less stock. The whole store is going to be rearranged. Tony continued to do this throughout the day.
Ken showed up. Tony went to lunch. Tony returned from lunch. I shot up in the back room. I called China 1 and placed my order. I punched out for lunch and walked there. I ate my shrimp with lobster sauce all day special there. It was ok but it wasn't spectacular. Perhaps my expectations were too high.
I walked back to Radio Shack. Tony left. Ken and I helped customers for the rest of the night. It was steady. A woman came in because her FM transmitter stopped working. We gave her another one of the same brand and model. She returned within a minute and said it didn't work. We pulled the last one off the shelf and tested it in the store before we gave it to her. It didn't work. All of us thought it was rather amazing that 3 of the same thing didn't work. We refunded her money.
I called Heather at Delmart. I asked her if she could give me a ride Fri. She said she doesn't trust her car to travel farther than she has to. I get her an interview at Radio Shack, schedule her interview to coincide with my start time, and she can't give me a ride to work. Some people are unbelievable. John Finley came in and I asked him if he could give me a ride on Fri. He said to call him on Thu. night and gave me his number.
After we closed the store Ken gave me his keys. I walked to Wal-Mart. I looked for Nicole at Subway. She wasn't there. I looked for Melody or Sally on the registers. Neither were there. I saw Luis and asked him if Sally or Melody were working. He said Melody was working but she was in back. I asked if she was going to work the register before she went home. He said yes. I walked away from him at the service counter and saw Paula. Paula used to own Sugar Creek Pantry. I used to deliver newspapers there every day. I asked her if she could give me a ride home. She said yes but she didn't get off until 11:00 p.m. It was now 9:10 p.m. I told her that I would look for another ride but if I was sitting at the bench at 11:00 p.m. I'd need a ride. She said that was a good plan. I went to the bench and sat down. I sat there for about an hour. Melody never came to a register. I was hoping she would. I didn't see anybody that could give me a ride.
I got a cart and started shopping. As I was shopping I saw Dawn. I didn't remember her name when I first saw her but she told me it. I knew Dawn about 20 yrs. ago. We used to hang out. We talked in the aisle for a few mins. Eventually I asked if she could give me a ride home. She said yes but she needed to finish shopping. I said that was fine because I had to too. When I checked out my check card wasn't approved. I used the remainder of my Quest card and tried running my check card again. Once again it was denied. I walked to the A.T.M. to check my balance. It said that my pending charges hadn't been cleared yet. It didn't say that but I figured ir out from my balance. I put a case of Coke, butter, and some Reese's Peanut Butter Cups back and then ran my check card. It was approved then. I bought crunchy peanut butter, a gallon of 2% milk, and a loaf of white bread. I went outside to smoke a cigarette and wait for Dawn. I decided I wanted the butter so I went back in and asked the woman if she returned it yet. She hadn't and I bought the butter. I went back outside and smoked a cigarette and waited for Dawn. Rob, a guy who applied at Radio Shack and was there earlier today, came out. He said he was going my way and asked if I needed a ride. I told him I already had one but I might need one on Fri. I asked if I could get his number from his application and he said yes. I told him I'd call him.
Dawn came by the Red Box DVD machine and I told her I was outside. She was going to get a movie but the machine was out of order. We left. I took her cart and mine to the cart corral after she finished loading her groceries. She drove me home. It was cool to see her. We talked about old times. She had to drive around the entire park because she missed the U-turn inside the park. It's her birthday in less than a week. She said she's going out. She said she has a boyfriend but they've only been together for a month. I gave her my number and she said she'll probably call. We'll see.
I went through all the episodes of "Soap" on Crackle tonight. Well not all the episodes in one night but I completed them tonight. I found a link where I can watch season 3. It's: http://tvshowsonline24.com/watch/Soap-season-3-episode-1 "Soap" is the funniest TV show ever, except maybe for "Police Squad". http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Police+Squad&aq=f
