Even with over 400 channels to flip through during my down-time, I’m still wondering what the point is for even paying for half of the ones we have. I wish you could pick and choose your plan, no one needs (or watches) half of the channels given to you with this line-up. Who seriously needs to sit back and watch a “Jewelry” channel where it’s all bobbles, all the time? It makes no sense to me. I’ve found that I still stick to the standard channels we had before, there’s only one addition at this point. I flip between Lifetime…more»

Sean’s aunt came down to visit last week and she’s coming back down this weekend because she’s on a mission. She’s having trouble holding onto her house in New York (as many people nation wide currently are), so she’s looking to purchase a house down here to hopefully escape the extravagant cost of living in New York. There have also been quite a few other topics that have come up during the term of her search. While she’s dead-set on moving to Delaware, Sean and I have also been thinking about other options for her, a big list of every-possible…more»

I’ve finally remembered to call the phone number that’s been stuck to my screen for the last two weeks.  Bella’s been in desperate need for a grooming for a little while now and tomorrow I need to be out of the house by 9am so that I can get that taken care of.  I’m getting her shaved down, I would typically save her hair considering how cold it is outside but she’s matted down in a few spots and I think just shaving her down would be the best route to take.  I do have a jacket for her so…more»

Sean recently upgraded the cable.  Up until a few weeks ago he was spending about $100 a month for Basic Cable and Internet from Comcast.  He was also spending another $30 on Vonage (which sucks horribly).  So he got a mailer about a new triple-play option from Comcast where you have basically everything you could imagine for $130 a month.  So he got rid of Vonage and then signed up for this triple-play and now we have over 400 channels, including the premium ones (HBO/Showtime/Starz – etc) as well as faster cable and a better phone line. My only complaint? …more»

I’ve cleaned a few things off of the template, I’ve also added a few things as well.  I’ve signed up with ShoppingAds in hopes to earn some more money from my website.  At the same time, the ads are targeted to technology related items so naturally the two go hand in hand.  I am hoping to have a new template for this site sometime in the very near future.  I’m going to have a more clean-line template where everything has it’s own place, as opposed to just being scattered about wherever I felt like sticking it. Technorati: Shopping Ads, Web…more»

I’ve never really been into it before but lately I’ve been doing a lot of customization when it comes to my cell phone. I have a prepaid Motorola W370 from Tracfone. It looks a lot like the Razr only it’s thinner without the Digital Camera and Bluetooth options. I don’t personally need any of that though, what’s the point? I have a digital camera that is usually in my purse 100% of the time and since it’s an 8 Megapixel camera (Olympus SP-350) then I really have no use for digital images via Cellphone. What I have been looking into…more»

I’m running on little to no energy these days. My health is slowly beginning to deteriorate and it’s definitely got me in a funk. It started as a migraine and turned into nausea, now it’s a full blown sore throat and a pounding headache that just won’t seem to go away. I know exactly where it’s all coming from but unfortunately I don’t have the money to fix it. My filling came out and now it’s infected so I’m using all of the antibiotics that I have from previous dental visits to get the bacteria to die. I’m hoping to…more»

After a few missed emails, and one finally getting a response I’m unhappy to say that I wasn’t accepted to one of the companies down here that I was truly hoping to work with.  There are a few other options but they really aren’t what I’d like to do, so instead I’m just going to stick with a retail job in the area so I can get my own car and then worry about traveling to other towns for design positions that are out there.  The second option for me, besides retail, was a company about 10 minutes from here…more»

It’s taken a little while for it to really kick in for me but I’m convinced that I’m never going to get that “rejection” notice from the job interview I went on a few weeks ago. Numerous emails to the person I interviewed with have gone unanswered so I’ve just decided to give up and look elsewhere. If it weren’t for Google dropping my ranks, I wouldn’t have this problem. So I’ve been looking into other means and have luckily heard from one of the applications I sent in. It’s a cashiers position at a local supermarket but based on…more»

I’m what one would call a “jack of all trades”. Minus some very heavy lifting, I can pretty much figure out and fix everything on my own. I don’t need to call on a “man” when I need to get things done, so naturally I read into just about everything. If I truly wanted to, I could probably build my own home and only have to worry about the cost of land and supplies, as opposed to the cost of the 30 year mortgage that’s only going to bring me to move in 10 years because my job changed or…more»
