I would just like to say that I saw gas for $2.36 today. That is the cheapest I have seen gas for in a LONG time. Its awesome. Although I have a feeling after elections, prices will be going back up again. Which sucks. Because I filled my gas tank for under $40 which I don't think I've done since I owned the truck.

Lately I have been going to the Cherry Creek State Park (its a reservoir & state park) with Darryl to take our 2 mutts for walks. We did over 10 miles in 2 days. The dogs were beat afterwards. It was nice.

The weather has been really nice here lately too. I'm just waiting for the Halloween weather change to snow, or something of the sort.

2 days left of this week. Not that it matters for me so much since I am not working currently. I have applied to numerous jobs though and hopefully will have something soon.

Have a nice evening, talk at ya later!

Hello! Today is Tuesday. I have been a busy little beaver today. I went to Best Buy to get a wireless router, so now I have wireless at home! YAY! I took Chance to Petco, and everyone loved him to pieces, as always. I then stopped by Darryl's work with Chance. He had a blast with all the fun new smells and new people. Now I got the internet set up, and am typing this, and then doing more job hunting. Thought I would share some random photos though :) Enjoy.

I also went to the Denver Zoo a while back and never put the pictures up here. Thought you would enjoy to see some :)

Well today is Wednesday. I am sitting in the showroom lobby of Darryl's work (Go Toyota) stealing their internet because we don't have wireless at home and its easier to use my laptop than the desktop computer for all this job application stuff, since all my docs and such are on my laptop.
I was fired yesterday morning, due to my blog post. Why my boss has been searching to find my blog, I am truly unsure, but whatever. Their loss. I hope they have fun finding someone with my skills (auto and offroad knowledge, contacts in the offroad industry, web skills and photography skills), to work for the amount they paid me.
So now the job hunt really ensues. It will be a nice change though. Maybe will give me the opportunity to go back to school as well, get tuned up on web design, and learn more that I do not know.
Have a great day!

Well, things have been going, not so well, for me lately. Mainly because of my job. Don't get me wrong, the concept of my job is great. Working in an all Toyota Off Road Shop has its perks, when you own 2 Toyota offroad trucks. However the company itself has been struggling the last few months. Even worse than I was led to believe. I had a paycheck bounce, but then it cleared so I thought all was OK, especially since my bosses said the company was fine. However this past Friday my boss sat me down as I was walking out the door, to tell me to not cash my paycheck because it would not clear. Friggin Awesome.

Then this morning (ya, I still came in, not sure why), they had a staff meeting to tell us how bad off they are. Would have been nice to know BEFORE they couldn't pay any of us, huh?

Soooo now I don't know when that paycheck will be good, the next one coming up obviously won't be any good either considering they can't even pay THIS one....

And they are "sorry" and are greatful for our understanding. Like I have a choice? Soooo Not only that, they tell us they might be calling us some mornings to tell us not to come in because there is no work for us.

Yet last week they got PISSED at me for not coming in for 2 days (that they couldn't pay me for ANYways) when my truck blew up and I had no way to get in.

Soooo I am looking for a job, unfortunately, and am going to have to use one of those "cash your check here for a fee" places just to get my money because my bank will just bounce their check. And I have my own bills to worry about. Their shitty business problems are none of my business and NONE of my problem because obbviously my life was of no importance to them either.

BLEH. other than that I had a decent weekend, cleaned out my truck, Darryl took me to breakfast and tried to relax with the impending doom of my job and finances because of it.
