the Fine is Finally Paid
Off!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I
have been waiting for this moment for many weeks now. I have been paying
off, at $50 a week, my $1000 fine to the town of Madison. They
finally sent me my receipts, and the last one said these words:
"PAID IN FULL". Now I can start applying my money towards other things in
life that are more important to me, like catching up the bills.
It was hard this summer, when my unemployment was only $80, and
$50 of it had to go out to the fines. Luckily, my cousin was patient
enough to let me slide this summer on the rent till I could get
it paid off and get back to work again. Now, I am making mad money working overtime, and I am getting everything caught up.I
learned a hard lesson about drugs, and I am happy to slowly get
it all behind me.

Denny's
|
|
|
|
Every so often, we have to get
out and do a little something nice for ourselves. Denny's was the answer one morning. Off to Oneida we went. It was a toss up between
Denny's and the Chinese buffet, but Denny's it was. Denny's is an
old tradition of mine, dating back to my days in California. We
were happy to have a place that was "always open" to go to, and we always
loved breakfast and coffee. Denny's prolly has the best coffee
goin' right now. While we were there, I managed to hook up with
one of my jail buddies who works there as a cook. We had a few words and
were both happy to meet on the outside. It is always good to see
one of my friends from jail, cuz it helps me appreciate my
freedom. Denny's was surely a celebration of freedom for us all that
day.

Got New Hat
|
|
|
|
My old Morrisville
hat was kinda faded, and I was noticing that fact when I was putting it on
one day, so when I went to the local drug store to get some meds,
I saw some new hats they had there and picked one up. It was the
type I liked, and it even said "Morrisville" on it. I look back in style
again, and I wear it everywhere.

New Tee Shirts!
|
|
|
|
WooHooooo!!! With
the new year comes new tee-shirts for us to wear at the pizza shop. They
look better then last years and I got more then the ONE that they
gave me. They are more gold then lemon, and got better logos too.
The new hats Matt got us are pretty bad, so I hope to be able to wear my new one that I bought. It is the same color, so I imagine it will
be OK. It is another step in a better direction for us.

Paid Big Rent
|
|
|
|
In the advent of getting a lot
of overtime, I managed to get some serious money to my cousin for
his rent. I was behind, plus he wants most of the semester paid ahead, so
I still have more and more to pay him, but he is very happy with
the $600 I gave him the other day. He is very happy since the
other guys paid him even more then that with their refund money.
Money helps make the world go around!

as the Boiz Mop
|
|
|
|
In an effort to
clean up the joint, we got out the old mop and went to town on our sticky
kitchen floor. It is great living with people cuz we all pitch in
and get everything done. It seems like I never have to do the
dishes anymore either. The old vacuum gets to take a break too as the boiz
bought a nice new one to use. It's a goodie too. Life is good.

Got New Dough Trays
|
|
|
|
Al was very happy to get the
new trays for our dough, as was I. They fit together nicely and
don't let the air into the dough, so it keeps longer and moister. They are
also easier to clean. However, when we made our first batch, we
didn't think of the fact that they were still warm from not being
in the cooler, and they kept the dough at a warmer temperature
for waaaaaay too long before they got cooled off. The dough continued to
rise and made quite a mess. That was a great loss for the
company, but after a day or two of emergency dough making, we got
it all replaced and were back in business. We blamed it all on
Murphy (the bad luck gnome). He had disappeared for a few days, and now we know that he was hangin' out in the cooler, lol.

the Falling Knives
|
|
|
|
I was trying to carry on my
usual fast pace of making subs the other night, and down they came. 10 knives came off the shelf and into my ingredients. I went to
reach for the parmesan cheese, and I must have hooked one of the
knives at the same time, and before I knew it, I was almost a
victim of a stabbing, lol. I am considering a new place to put the knives.
They were all sharp as shit too.

My Laundry is Stuck!
|
|
|
|
As I sit here and type, my
laundry sits in the machine, stuck there til the morning, and waiting for a maintenance person to let it out. I guess the timer is not
working cuz, it is still on and the door is still locked up
tight. It isn't running, but it is quietly waiting for me to get it out. I
will prolly have to do it again in the morning cuz the mildew
will overtake it. Hopefully I will get a free wash out of it.
