I'm back, what did I miss?
Gawd! What a month.
I must say that I'm more than happy to see the passing of October. Too much stress:
Family stress- a trip to Indiana that climaxed with a panic attack in full view of my parents (I only have one or two of these a year, just my dumb luck that it would have to hit me then and there, reinforcing my mother's belief that it would be best if I just moved back in with her and Dad).
Job stress - I just may have killed the business with those two days off, been dumping a truckload of resumes and aps off, had to cut my own pay in order to keep the business running in the meantime. A meeting with the accountant, "If you fix my TV I'll forgive the unpaid fee." was not very heartening.
Financial stress- had to take on more side jobs as the business fails; if not for any other reason, to make sure I don't wind up pennyless and homeless if the shop tanks before I get another job.
Truck stress- I just had a new engine put in the damn thing last February, now it's leaking oil into the coolant. Warranty? sure. All I gotta do is bring the engine back to Autozone, and they'll order me a new one (allowing 2-3 weeks for delivery). Then after it's installed I should recieve a check for the mechanic's fee..... in about 3 to 4 weeks after sending the final bill. Question at hand, will I need the $5oo for other things in the 2 months or so that it's tied up in the process?
At least I'm not still married........ and have no children to support!

"The funny thing about life is it winds up killing us all in the end"
Who's dying? Solderjunkie, now that you have actually gotten the panic attack out of your system you're free to move on and get busy finding a job. It would be a waste to die now.
Yeah. You're a faker. You're not dying. In the Tibetan philosophy, Sylvia Plath sense of the word, I know we're all dying. But you're not dying the way Chloe back there is dying. So, you're a tourist. Ok? I've seen you. I saw you at melanoma, I saw you at tuberculosis and I saw you at testicular cancer! I'll expose you.
Good Grief guys! That's the last time I try to wax philisophical and respond with a quote in response to the comment,"life's a bitch then ......". I am most certainly NOT in the throws of death, nor do I wish to be anytime in the forseeable future, as this would definately hinder plans and aspirations. The point here was that:
1)October sucked! (for me at least, and the reasons why)
2)I am glad that it is over.
3)I am looking for a new job, or business opportunity and doing what I must to make certain that life can go on until one comes to fruition.
Zat's all, nothing more
