I am trying out a new spiral bound notebook that I bought. It's a smaller one, 7 X 4.375 inches, just small enough to fit in the pocket of my cargo shorts, although I have been keeping it in the cooler on back of the delivery scooter most of the time. It was a little busy yesterday, made a little more money than usual, and it was good because it kept my mind occupied. Of course, getting the ticket hurt, took away that extra little bit that made it a good day money-wise. It did help in the... Sign in to see full entry.

Very long day. Started at 6:30 AM girlfriend needed me to give someone a ride, their car had been impounded. Got home, proceeded to have a discussion about her $600 extensions, then she broke up with me. Not a surprise, it's been coming. This last 3 months hasn't been easy.

I think it's hard for us to change, as people. We tend to be who we have always been.

Well, whaddaya know? Apparently if you work and remain patient, it pays off. For the last 4 days I've been driving around on the scooter delivering paper menus for the restaurant I work at, Eat & Grinn. Delivery has been slow because it's not something they've put much effort into since opening back in October. They recently opened a second restaurant, so the new manager at the original place has decided that we should market our delivery service more aggressively. In about half an hour I am...
