Long time no see! Well, I got a job now at RGIS, which is an inventory company. Kim got the same job, too, and it seems to be working out quite well. This is even probably my favorite job ever, since it doesn't feel like I've got supervisors watching all over me and I can work at my own pace. Basically, what I do is use an audit microcomputer (which is like a superpowered calculator) and count inventory at different places. So far we've inventoried at 2 Beall's, Super One Foods, Goody's, and Lowe's. I liked Super One Foods the most, since in that store we do what is called an automatic count, which is where we scan one barcode and count the number of that particular item, type it in, and hit enter. It sounds easy, but let me tell you, this calculator can be quite intimidating. It has many functions, and I'm still really learning how to use it's functions, although I can do my job with what functions I already know. At clothing stores, we do a manual scan, which is where we have to scan EVERY barcode. That can get annoying, if you ask me, but then again, you don't have to look all around a shelf to count how many items is there.

So anyway, with RGIS just being a part time job for the both of us, we're still not making enough money to pay bills, so we're both out looking for other jobs as well. I'm not going to quit RGIS even if I do get a full time job, just because it's so fun to do, and the people are really nice. I just hope we can come up with enough money to get all of our bills paid, otherwise it'll be to the streets with us, since nobody can really take us in at this time.

Christmas has also passed since my last writing. It was a great Christmas. Kim and I went to both families to have it, which was pretty nice, although I had to deal with Stoney. I got Final Fantasy X 2 for Christmas, and Michael and I went half-and-half on Kingdom Hearts for Kim. Both games are great, I just don't ever know which game I want to play, hehe. Kingdom Hearts is a really cool RPG made by none other than Squaresoft and Disney, which are the two titans in their fields. I'd have never thought an RPG with characters like Donald, Goofy, Tarzan, etc. would be such a good game.

So anyway, I'm out for now. Check you all later!
