As some of you know, I have been looking for work and may have found a job that can work with me and how I really hate dealing with people face to face. I have applied for 3rd shift (or graveyard for you West coast people) GM (general merchandise) stocking at a Meijers near the house. For those who don't know, Meijers is a Michigan based company, like Walmart, but nicer to their employees, or so former workers have said.

I was rummaging through Fictionmania, and came across a couple of authors that I've read before, then let lie fallow, then picked up again - still wondering. Plus others :)

We're approaching 2100 episodes of Bike and I thought I'd better ask the readers if they want me to continue. Bonz and Whizz have indicated they have no difficulties in continuing providing I give them a rise in the number of munchies they get to eat
- blackmailing little monsters.

Judging by the response to the recent birthday episode, I suspect this question is possibly rhetorical, but I feel I should ask it every now and again, just to make sure, and assuming that the management are also happy to continue finding space for my daily ramblings.

So...

In her blog, Katie asked the question "What am I doing?" (which you can read here: http://bigclosetr.us/topshelf/blog/45644/what-am-i-doing )

I know there have been many things written to eulogize Stan since his passing and I don't want to be tedious or redundant, but I wanted to share my own feelings about someone who was so misunderstood and yet, so loved.

I know this is old, but it might still bring about a chuckle or two.

I was wondering if a few people would help me figure out something that I am racking my brain over. I am wondering what exactly am I doing as an author. I know I don't post stories quite as often as others, but I do have quite an extensive library going on here and am in the middle of yet another major novel. I know a lot of people don't like definitions placed on them, but I am a different bird and sometimes like to know where I stand in the scheme of things. Here is what I got please add or subtract as you see fit.

I am currently staying at an extended stay hotel and about to become homeless. I need about a thousand dollars to help finish paying the deposit on a rental. Currenlty I am unemployed but have some income coming from my mothers estate but it is not enough to make the down payment. Have job interviews during the next two weeks and awaiting answers on on previous interviews. I had to move to South Florida to find work. I will repay everyone as soon as I can.

Where in the world is K-Jo anyone over in the UK know where she is or heard from her? Just to know she is OK & work is keeping her busy.
