I am going to take a water bottle with me to work on Monday and drink water throughout the day with maybe a Diet Dr Pepper at lunch.  I definitely need to cut out the regular pop again and replace that with more water.  My grandmother and I are also going to try to eat healthier this year.  We'll still have our cheat meals, but we're going to cut those down quite a bit.   When I'm at home in the evenings, I will have either unsweetened iced tea or Diet Dr. Pepper.  I'm going to try to lean toward the former.  I am also going to stop all food consumption by 2000.  There are things I am going to do to change this year.  I am also not going to weigh everyday.  I will weigh once, maybe twice a week.  My body is a temple of the Holy Spirit and I need to treat it as such.

I will take a new attitude when it comes to hounding Bushie about his bad decisions and maybe even say something nice at some point in the future. I definitely need to cut down on all the sass I give him at some point and replace that with more unabashed encouragement of whatever he decides is right. My ego and I are also will try to be nicer this year at some point. We'll still have our episodes of calling Bushie a grotesquely lazy cretin and/or possibly mentally-handicapped fool, but we'll cut those down quite a bit at some point. When I'm at home in the evenings on the Update, I will have either watered-down rage or filtered anger. I will try to lean for the former at some point. I will also stop posting in this thread by 2000. There are things I will change this year at some point. I will also not read Update everyday at some point. I will read it and get angry once, maybe twice a week. My mind is a temple of the Holy Spirit and I should probably treat it as such at some point and will think about this at least one more time at some point.

What nobody realizes is I am bringing home a fat paycheck every two weeks, so I'm paying for 90% of my bills.  I've said that several times before, but why cant anyone see that?

We could: show us the bank statements (but please censor all of your sensitive information before posting this time, plz).

I've become increasingly convinced over the past year that the relatively small or mundane types of tasks that come up in our day-to-day lives that we dislike are genuinely debilitating or impossible for Bushie. Telling him to list a few things on Craigslist or wherever for sale, rent a van for <$50 to haul all the rest of the stuff back home, disconnect his utilities/make changes to the existing plan and similar acts are (and I'm not being facetious here) way too advanced for him. It's another feather in the bonnet of the "mentally handicapped" theory.

It's either that or he can't stand the act of a combination of physical labor and/or social contact (would explain why he had to be hounded time and time again to call MetroTech about his certificate; maybe the call centers have traumatized him from using the phone).

Well now that he's been fired, I expect to be un-purged in a week once he admits as much to his facebook friends.

Don't use the word fired.  It's the wrong term.  That term implies I am at fault.  I had no fault in this termination.  All six of us temps are getting cut.  The boss is proud and grateful for our work, but he simply cannot keep any of us.



Weren't you saying like 1-2 weeks ago that there was a ton of work about to come in and you guys were going to be jam-packed busy?
