You know it is also my last attempt too. I’m compleatly out of money and I have to do this right or else I’m basicaly moving back to Chicago. I don’t really want to so I’m going to push everything within my power to make this happen for me.

Okay, so my title for this post is a bit lame. Well I really cannot think of much. But today to me was a bit productive for me. Probably one of my more productive days in a long time. That’s pretty sad that I’m saying that too.
Well forst off, I was able to get out and do the basic things that I usualy do. Run to the bank and get money and just pick up the little things that I need. But today was different. The sun was shining and the air was warm. Very odd for this time of the year in this part of the world. So I wanted to be out longer. What was there else? Well I went to get my hair cut. That turned out great. Then as I was coming home, something told me to go the Goodwill Thrift Shop. Now I usualy never go into these stores but after being out on my own these past few months, I’ve learned to just go in and look. Usualy I’ve been finding some good things and today was no exception to the rule. Today I walked out with a new jacket and a new sweater. These items where in such great condition, you would swear if you were with me you would say that these things look like they have never been used ever.
Well I basicaly went home from there and then I wanted to go to the Wal-Mart to do some shoping there too. So I did. I won’t mention what I got from there, okay? =D
But the cool thing about today was I felt like for the first time in a long time I felt like I was getting something done today. I felt great today and just enjoying myself with all that I was doing today. To bad I really didn’t get any drawing done but to me, this day felt like a good start for me and I just hope that the coming weeks will feel this way to me also. Well I leave for my training on Tuesday evening. I feel that things are going to be good. I’ll be updating you all for sure.

Well as I said before, my job sucked but at least I decided to finally get rid of it and said my good riddance to it just this past Saturday. I’m starting a new job as a Truck Driver for a pretty big national company. I’m also going through their training program to upgrade my license. It will be a new experience for me I think and one that will be a welcome new experience too for me. I really need this change in shift in jobs and really I wished I would have done it much sooner. Not when I’m also so broke too. heh, the story of my life really.
I’ve also been doing some thinking too here. I have had a lot of time to think and to tell you all, I’m really getting homesick here. I do miss the times when I can get out of the house and be able to just meet up with someone on a whim. here I just get a chance to maybe get out and take a walk. I did that today at least.
Well that is about all that is going on here. Maybe I should get at my drawing table and draw more. Just been feeling a little under the weather. I really need to kick myself in the bum but I just really don’t know how. My foot can’t really reach there. =D

Well I did hit a wall here while living here in Spokane. It’s not much to deal with but it is just going to have to take some time for me to get through this. I basically ran out of some money and I’m living on peanut butter & jelly sandwiches for a little while. My car has decided to break on me and I have to get that fixed. Well there goes my money. This really sucks! XP
Well on a lighter note, I really found a real nice bike path that runs along the river here. It’s a real nice long path that I can easily get lost on. Also while I was on the path I ran into a biker who was having a little trouble with changing a tire so I stopped to help the guy out. That felt good to help him out and get him back on the road.
Well back home here now and just having a nice relaxing day before I return back to my horrible job tomorrow. I guess I haven’t told you all yet that my job really sucks and that I’m still looking for work. Well for now I have to keep this job but you can bet that I’m still looking for some new work.
Well take care and remember that no cats were pushed over during the typing of this post so please push over a cat for me. Especially if the cat is orange and pudgy. That is the best one to push over. =D

Well everyone I am writing this post here in my new apartment here in Spokane Washington. It’s a small place but much bigger than the place where I was living in before. Had to get out of that room I was in that was for sure. Okay so here is what happened during my move…
To tell you the truth, my move was very uneventful really. Nothing really went wrong during this time when I was packing. I was sad to leave some things behind because they wouldn’t fit in my car. Oh well, maybe when I go back to visit the family for Christmas I can pick up that stuff that I left behind.
Yeah I packed up my car to take the trip. Luckily I had a Mercury Sable Wagon to pack with. so I had a lot of space but at the same time I had very limited space to work with. So I decided to put the important things in first. Like my computer and other things too. =) Then after that stuff was in I went with the secondary stuff and so on until the car was full. I really did get a lot of stuff inside and that was great! =D
So during the trip was pretty well too. Decided to take the Interstate 94 up through Minnesota and North Dakota, to Montana. And there meet with the interstate 90 and continue into Idaho and into Washington. Now this later part of the journey was the challenging part.
I have an older car. It’s a 94′ and it needs work really but I knew this car is a strong runner and it still is. But when the car hit the mountains of Montana, I thought the car wasn’t going to make it. Bit it did and the mountains did kick the car’s butt pretty good. Going up the inclines of the mountains was a challenge for the transmission. I went through a quart of transmission fluid pretty quickly. But when I saw the state line for Washington I was singing the parses to the Lord for making my trip a safe one. =)
So I am now in the state and in my new place just doing small things right now to make my stay here a more pleasurable one. I still need furniture in my place and I need a TV so I can play my Wii. Well I have a desk but no good chair really. I have a lawn chair that I’m using but yeah, I need something better for me and soon!
Well that is that for me. Now I have to find myself a job so I can stay here and not have to go back home! That would suck really. I don’t really mind the drive but the moving part was still a pain in the put and not something I want to do again soon! =D
