Faucets (Book) http://www.Writing.Com/main/books.php/item_id/1133132 Since the last entry was even more fun to write than I thought it would be and I got such a response from another one of my truest friends I thought I would duplicate it. Sarah Jean, believe it or not, is the model of some of my stronger female characters because she has some of the qualities I want my heroines to have and I think she has a great name...[Read Full Post] Sat, 06 Mar 2010 23:05:53 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/689538 Every once in awhile I get to chat with one of my truest friends and when I do I almost always ask her for some journal prompts. This time she was to the point where she had to beg me to write a entry about her. I tried to avoid this subject but how could I resist writing about such a beautiful person and one that was nearly on her knees begging me to ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 04 Mar 2010 21:28:57 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/689376 The other day my phone makes it tone alerting me to an incoming text message. This is not an everyday occurrence but non-the-less it happens enough for me to think of this as commonplace. When I do get a message it is usually one of my friends sending me a joke or a chain message to help out a baby or someone sick and the phone company agrees to donate...[Read Full Post] Mon, 01 Mar 2010 19:57:29 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/689049 I'm not the kind of person to watch politicians at work but today my dad had that debate about health care reform. I heard a lot of people wearing expensive suits, ties and cuff links talking about a bill that even the writer's don't understand. I heard a lot of we and us and what we should do and I heard the so called winner of the popular...[Read Full Post] Thu, 25 Feb 2010 21:06:50 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/688676 Why is it so hard for people to accept "Change"? There are people in my life, whom I will try not to mention their names to protect their state of mind, who get queasy over the words, "New and Improved". The older the generation, the more steadfast they are at not wanting their world to evolve into something possibly better. In t...[Read Full Post] Fri, 19 Feb 2010 17:31:21 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/688003 If you've been reading my journal, here as of late, you'll notice that I'm working a sales job at a mail order company. In the last couple f weeks I've noticed that a lot of people have a problem with just saying "No" to an add-on offer that is a part of my job. The people I deal with are, more often not, years from from the wor...[Read Full Post] Thu, 18 Feb 2010 16:44:59 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/687902 I went on a road trip with my parents today. At first our drive took us to an outlet mall where my mother wanted to walk through the "showroom" of the place where I work. I think she mainly wanted to take advantage of my 40% discount on the merchandise I sell over the phone on a daily basis. Ok, it was also good for me to look at some of our i...[Read Full Post] Sat, 13 Feb 2010 00:06:26 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/687345 If Charles Dickens was still alive and writing about ghosts of past, future and present day ghosts of love I would be the main character. Last year at this time I thought I was as happy as a candied conversation heart in the middle of a romantic sentence. That happy memory still haunts me even though I still smile at hearing those most over-used relati...[Read Full Post] Fri, 12 Feb 2010 23:55:06 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/687344 Hello and welcome to _____, my name is _____.

I feel this is quite a feat considering that the man in the White House promised a change in our economy. I'll be working as a Customer Service rep ...[Read Full Post] Sun, 10 Jan 2010 19:20:06 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/683274 According to you I'm stupid I'm useless I can't do anything right According to you I'm difficult hard to please Forever changing my mind I'm a mess in a dress can't show up on time even if it would save my life According to you According to you But according to him...

Yes, I'm talking about the cold, white stuff called snow. My little home town has been covered in the stuff for days now and it keeps coming down. There is about 4 feet of it now and this trailer I live in is tu...[Read Full Post] Tue, 05 Jan 2010 19:36:01 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/682592 If you watched any television in the last week you probably have seen at least one show about the 10 best or worst of 2009. Keeping with that theme I'm going to list my lists. The good, probably the hardest for me to list as because not much good happened to me. 1. Having a woman I loved saying that she loved me for the first time. 2. Being c...[Read Full Post] Thu, 31 Dec 2009 23:50:07 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/681802 My friends and I spent some parts of last night discussing the art of the pickup line. All relationships need to start somewhere and me, having a bit of bad luck in relationships decided to change my approach so I have been coming up with short; honest openers. I have no car, no job, and no money... so can I borrow yours and take you out? Here&...[Read Full Post] Sat, 19 Dec 2009 17:24:06 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/680433 Let me explain the title of this entry... For those of you who don't remember or know my stand on the person in the White House I'm not in favor of his cheerleadish campaign slogan, "Yes we can!!!" and I'm not a believer in Obama the person either. Now let me further explain why I don't like Obama. First and foremost it is ...[Read Full Post] Sat, 19 Dec 2009 17:13:00 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/680431 I had my hair cut today. Doesn't sound like it would be worthy of a journal entry but I found that having my hair shortened by a good looking woman who wanted to also talk with me very encouraging. Will me and this hair stylist hook-up and go on a date, probably not but it was a reason for me to wish my air would grow back so I can see this person a...[Read Full Post] Fri, 09 Oct 2009 18:36:42 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/671099 I'm sure some secrets need to be kept but I have been stumbling over this one in my mind for a few months now. This double-life I'm leading is sometimes hard but is so much fun. Let me tell you about my unknown, (to the masses) identity. Whenever I get a chance I hit the streets with my loose clan of friends. We have been known to drive our l...[Read Full Post] Sun, 04 Oct 2009 17:43:55 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/670446 I decided to respond back to the letter that ended my relationship. I felt that it was important for her to know how I felt about her leaving the way she did. I don't think I'll ever hear a response from her, but I feel a lot better after writing it. The name has not been changed to protect the innocent... Dear Donna, I know in your ...[Read Full Post] Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:12:54 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/667723 According to my last journal entry I was already suffering from a broken heart, only because I had jumped the gun on a missing phone, at least that was what it was at that time. Shortly after I posted that entry I got an email from her stating that she had misplaced her phone and had no way of contacting me and unfortunately I bought it... As you can se...[Read Full Post] Wed, 02 Sep 2009 16:18:13 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/666227 July wasn't a good month for me... I lost my job, my livelihood and now it looks like I lost the woman I love. I'm sure there are reasons why a person wouldn't call or answer her phone on a weekend, but every weekend for the last ten. I'm sure there are reasons for a person to get so busy where she didn't have time to send me a simp...[Read Full Post] Mon, 03 Aug 2009 13:58:57 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/662057 I think our president "Stupidly" opens his mouth and utters stupid comments about things he knows nothing about. You would think that he would learn not to open his mouth when he hasn't thought about it first. And to think they made fun of former president Bush for some of his pronouciations. How many times are we going to listen to Barr...[Read Full Post] Mon, 27 Jul 2009 10:51:29 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/661008 Maybe not to you, but in my parents house it can be a very mood-altering device... My mother has a lifelong addiction to watching the "Days of Our Lives" and another soap. Before the DVR she would have to be home before 1pm and she wouldn't leave the house again until after 3pm. Now that she has figured out how to record her favorite sho...[Read Full Post] Wed, 22 Jul 2009 13:11:39 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/660372 Today was my the end of my second year of driving for Schneider National. Today is not the start of my third year of driving for them since earlier today I was let go because on Friday me, my trailer and a fence post had an altercation. The only casualities were four anchor bolts and my job. Doesn't seem fair but I guess that is life. This fenc...[Read Full Post] Mon, 13 Jul 2009 16:42:59 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/658937 I don't what to say, even thank you doesn't seem like it is enough. You are the silver in my cloud, the smile in the mirror, the rainbow after the morning rain. I just wish I knew the person to be indebted to. You ROCKED my literary world now I hope to repay you with my writing, since you gave me one less thing to worry about.

In any other family this probably wouldn't even deserve a letter home let alone a journal entry in a public domain like Writing.Com but in my family it is necessary to document her survival. My mom and dad are normal if you consider being trapped in the seventies. They aren&#...[Read Full Post] Wed, 08 Jul 2009 18:13:46 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/658309
