Sometimes I wonder if I have a virtual sign on my forehead stating “please do screw me over.” I’ve been trying to transfer money from Emigrant Direct to Wells Fargo for about 6 weeks now. The Emigrant Direct account was linked to a closed Wells Fargo account, so I had to get it linked to… Continue reading Fun with Banks (sarcasm intended)
Adventures in Stupidity
And for all those politically correct poobahs out there….the post you are about to read involves my stupidity only. I figure it’s acceptable to call myself stupid, or at the very least bone-headed. I went to a family picnic that was a 2 1/2 hour drive away (one way). I didn’t get lost finding the… Continue reading Adventures in Stupidity

But once I got him home, he decided this fat old lady… Continue reading Mick The Morose
Its interesting being owned by cats
I lost my last cat (Noelle aka ChairCat) in November 2006. And every time I mentioned getting a replacement cat, my father (with whom I lived) gave me an extremely dirty look (no words needed). Was I going to get another cat any time soon?…..I DON’T THINK SO. In December 2007, my father passed away.… Continue reading Its interesting being owned by cats
So my first blog entry………
AFLAC….a reputable company. Yes. One of its local representatives…..I don’t think so. This interview I was supposed to have with the to-be-unnamed Aflac representative…….was a farce from beginning to end. From the time I first emailed my resume to him, it took 12 emails over the course of 10 days to finally get an interview. … Continue reading So my first blog entry………
