to ME it’s no contest–dogs win every time…I started the housesitting gig last night…the only thing that I like about cats is that they’ve somehow over millions of years learned how to use a litter box…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

I saw the cat last night so she knows I’m here and her family isn’t…and (possibly) she’s still getting used to her new surroundings…I don’t think she likes me very much, but I don’t care…The roomie’s cat on the other hand is apparently seeking from\u00a0 me the affection she used to get from the roomie–the dog has become VERY protective and selfish…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

I think I will save money if I drive to work, so that’s what I plan to do…we’ll see how that goes…Life is not bad…I’m just a bit lonely…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

ADDENDUM–The house sitting gig is going fairly well… other than getting lost coming home from work and (in a separate incident) locking the house and car keys inside the house–the roomie rescued me…right this minute I have a headache, dunno why–stress? I took something for it…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Having Internet access is every bit as important as having use of a car…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

I MIGHT go out Thursday after work…My Saturday is kinda spoken for; I’m playing with a friend at the AmerLegion…It’s a benefit for the AmerLegion…Another “friend” is talking about a benefit for the people of the Philippines…Frankly, considering how MSR was treated the last time, I think I’d rather make a financial donation directly to the Red Cross…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

the workplace has become the stress place…I’m starting to hate working there…I guess it’s better than being out of work…I think driving to work is cheaper than taking public transportation…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

I have spent about $12 to keep the tank nearly full, which is where it was when I started driving the car…I’m gonna probably NOT gonna put anymore gas in until I get my paycheck deposited\/cashed…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

and if I’m gonna do any electric guitar playing on Saturday, I’ve GOT to put new strings on the guitar…<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

I guess I’m gonna have to call or go to the Food stamps office to find out if\/when I’m gonna get them back…another source of stress…Dunno how much more I can take–but EVERYBODY says that sooner or later…
\n<\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Life is…just OK…
