Hello, World! Life sucks, doesn't it? Well, nah, can't complain too much, we all have our ups and downs, although it's been a lot of down lately. When you're at the bottom, though, there's nowhere to go but up! I wish I could actually believe everything I say all the time, because you know when you feel bad, you don't always feel like that. Don't get me wrong; I don't feed great, nor do I feel terrible. I'm at that horribly boring in-the-middle area lately, which is a great advance from my past week. So what if I don't have money? I have a job, and I have food. The bills aren't all paid, and they won't for a while, not unless I stick to the budget that I've been working out. This budget even includes getting a savings account, that way if it's not in my pocket, I won't want to spend it, because I'm too lazy to go to the bank. :P I remember my first savings account with Jennifer. It was a good feeling, because I felt older, I guess you could say, to have this savings account, AND a checking account. It wasn't all fun after some auto-withdrawals pushed me over the limit, and now, I have that debt to pay back, but you better believe me I will! Having this house has done wonders to me and my take on bills and life... I never knew I liked gardening or yard work, but it's actually nice when it's you're own yard, not your parents. It's a little late in the season to really do what I want to, but I'm still having fun with it nonetheless. I actually saw a really nice leafblower/vacuum/mulcher at Wal-Mart for about $70 that I'm looking at getting as a birthday present to myself, since nobody else seems to have remembered it. I figured my dad would have at least sent me a card, and it should be hard for him to forget my birthday, since they're so close together. Don't you just love scorpio's?

Hey, let's see what my horoscope is at http://horoscopes.astrology.com/:
If there's no love in your life, draw strength from the memory of a happier time. Prospective home-buyers consider looking into a new neighborhood. Don't let hunger or thirst blind you to what's healthy.

Don't horoscopes always have a funny way of seeming true? It's hard to tell if they really are sometimes true, or just say something that almost anybody could be going through... Oh well, not much to think about, really.

Anyway, it's not like my birthday sucked. Anna gave me $20 to go to China Star, which is one of my all-time favorite restaurants, however I always seem to leave there miserable because I ate too much. Kim and I went there, spending $19.70. Kim secretly talked to the waiter there while I was getting my plate of food about singing happy birthday to me. Let's just say that was the craziest experience I've ever had. Have you ever seen the movie A Christmas Story, where they go to the Chinese restaurant for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner, whatever it was? Remember how the Chinese people sang? That's how they sang to me, except the song was right until they said my name. It came out like "jehr-uh-my," and when they said it, I started to feel a little weird, and looked at Kim, who sure enough was thinking the same thing.

Well, anyways, with the addition of the leaf blower, I have my eyes on one other thing, something nobody probably knew I wanted; I myself didn't know I wanted it until I saw it. A Sonicare toothbrush, costing $108. Kim said she'd go in with me half and half to buy it, and I can't wait to have it so I can clean these freaking nasty teeth. Speaking of health, though, I still need my contacts. These glasses suck and I can't stand it.

Well, I guess that's all for now... Stay tuned for the next edition of BlkFury's Life!
