I finally retired my old wallet… I feel so …. dirty… like I just shunned a member of my family or something.  I had this old nasty brown leather… dry rotted… worn out… flaking…. smells like a cow…. wallet.  And I just bought a new one tonight.  My old one was with me for a good 7 years at least.  Pretty much as long as I’ve carried a wallet other than like a little kiddie wallet with some cartoon character on it.  This wallet even had a rivet in it from where I self installed my own wallet chain in the 9th grade… HAHA… I used to be a skater punk… those were fun days… so much punk music, so much vandalism… so many dirty days of sweat and asphalt stained clothing from hockey and skating… man I miss that smell.  ANYWAY, the wallet… yeah… so my new one is full of cards and stuff that I rarely use (but just enough that I can’t throw them away), and it’s all big and looks full, but don’t fear… I’m still broke.  The world isn’t ending.  I actually have a dollar in there… a whole buck.  It’s a power dollar.  The last dollar in your wallet… it’s always called a power dollar.  It does feats that normal dollars can’t… like… … … buy a buck of gas when you’re on empty and only have one dollar… … … yeah.

Other than that, I’m pretty busy with work right now.  I just had a meeting with my boss (Kyle), his boss (Mark), and his boss (Lee).  So the four generations of hierarchy met up and I explained our multimedia package that I’ve been working on for months to them.  Lee had questions… Mark had questions… I gave answers… We added stuff here and there… and we got the green light to order it.  FREAKIN YEAH!  So my near $33,000 proposal just passed.  I am proud to say that I am the sole owner to the right of saying this is the second biggest purchase CedarCreek has ever made next to the building itself (which barely edges me out at a mere $6,000,000 ).  So now I need to get ahold of Roscor (the multimedia company in Cinci) to pull this big fat trigger. 

In other news, tonight was my sister Sarah’s birthday.  (HAPPY 17th B-DAY SARAH!!!)  Yes… my sister is named Sarah.  My girlfriend is named Sarah.  My best friend’s girlfriend is named Sara.  I work with another Sarah, two of my residents are named Sarah, and Sara…. and I know about 785 more of them through school and church… how fun is that?  I’ve just given up and started assigning them numbers. 

My stupid palm pilot won’t sync up with my computer now… and the thing is long overdue for a backup.  I’ve tried dang near everything to make it work… uninstalled and reinstalled everything I can think of… So now I have a 7 page email reply from Palm support that I have to sort through to see if it fixes this…. grrr…

HAHA… my photography class killed me last week.  I got this assignment to shoot on Kodak Ektachrome film.  I went to Meijers and asked if they had it and the guy was like yeah… here.  He gave me Kodachrome film… I assumed it was the same since they both give positive images (for slides) instead of negatives… I was wrong.  I shot the entire roll then found out that it’d take a week or more to develop it since it had to ship to CHICAGO or SANDIEGO!!!  HAHAHA.  It was due that night.  whoops.  So I explained the problem to the prof and since other kids had issues, he let us off till next week.  WHEW!  So, important lesson kids…

Kodak Ektachrome = GOOD
Kodak Elitechrome = GOOD
Kodak Elitechrome II = GOOD
Fujichrome = GOOD
Kodachrome = STRAIGHT FROM THE FLAMING, INDIGESTED, GASEOUS, I JUST ATE 51 BRAN MUFFINS AND I’M STUCK IN TRAFFIC, BOWELS OF HELL.
