Late to the party. Had ANOTHER bad week, at the shop. At first it LOOKED like it was going to be a good week, as there was a lot of work to do, and I DID get a lot fixed. And of course, this impressed the boss, who just encouraged me to "fix 'em faster".

Of course, he was NOT so jovial, when it came time to pay me. He still owes me $340, from this week. Now, some here, will say"heck, I spend more than that for breakfast", but to ME, $340 is QUITE a bit of money, for a week, to lose. I can assure you, that no matter how much(or more likely, if)my financial situation changes, in the future, I will NEVER spend that much, for just a dinner, UNLESS it is a fund-raiser, or something. Even if I win the Kiros prize next year, and get my script writing career off of the ground, I will NEVER just "toss money to the wind, consciously", I have been in the "have not" category too long, and do not intend to change, if I become a "have".

Now that I got that out of the way, I must add that I am glad that you all intend to be civil here, cause I have been slammed MUCH worse than Pcottraux was, over the year or so I have been here. AND, some here, tell me that "I have gotten what I deserve", pertaining to my financial situation, loneliness, being cheated by friends, stolen from, nearly carjacked at knife-point,shunned at church, lied about at church, etc,etc .....

And on a conservative site, it gets old,to be attacked so much................
