Relationship

Pat called me finally. Hadn't heard from him in two weeks and he called me last Sunday.

He acted like there was nothing wrong and expected me to welcome him back with open arms. I was very cold to him and he couldn't seem to understand what the problem was. He got very upset when I told him I wasn't driving two hours to pick him up and bring him home.

Then he called me Wednesday night. Intoxicated. He said he wanted to quit the job he is doing and come home. Then he would do day labor. Meaning he would work and gt paid the same day.

I can't imagine what he is thinking. He needs to get a real job and help pay bills. I am tired of spending all of my paychecks on bills and stuff while he blows all his money on cigarettes and bullshit.

I didn't argue with him when he called because I want him to remember what I say. And as drunk as he was, he would not remember the conversation.

This would be so much easier if I weren't still madly in love with the man.

Louisiana????

I have just realized that when I go to sites that have stat readers (you know, like OneStat or those counter things), my ISP says that I am in Louisiana.

I guess that is because CenturyTel corporate headquarters are there.

I just wanted to let you all know that I am NOT in Louisiana. I am still in the great state of Wisconsin. Except when I drive two minutes and cross the river. Then I am in Minnesota.

Prince Rainier

Prince Rainier passed this morning.

And so did Saul Bellow.

And the Pope is being laid to rest on Friday.

My mother always told me things happen in 3.

I'm Screwed

My van has had a coolant leak for some time now.

Instead of fixing it, I have screwed around and just kept filling it with coolant and water.

Well, it has overheated twice in the last week. Now it is making horrible noises. Mechanic says i have killed it...damaged the valves in the engine.

I have been trying to buy a new vehicle since before Christmas. I am unable to buy one. Not because I can't afford it, but because I have NO credit. If I had bad credit, they could work with me. But since I have NO credit, I am screwed.

Almost everywhere I have been, the car dealers want a co-signer. I do not have one of those.

I did find one place that would sell me a car. $4000 vehicle with a $1000 down payment.

Anyway, guess I get to start riding my bicycle. Good thing the snow is all gone. Guess I will lose all this extra weight I have put on since moving here.

Barf.

Election of a Pope

I found this great page that explains the whole process.

Pretty interesting stuff.
