&lt;p&gt;The location is downtown Bradenton and my job is in Sarasota, so I am not sure what I will be doing.  If my manager does not stay there and retires; which he may do because the company is treating managers, and employees like shit lately to make the stock look good, so morale is down all over;  then I will not stay there because it is quite a drive.  In fact it is quite a drive.  They already want him to fire me  because I am not the super sale person but I am reliable, etc.  So I probably going to look for another job elsewhere....What stress, moving and looking for work at the same time....WooooHoooo!!!!&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=4752803339973620551&amp;page=RSS%3a+Desoto+Towers+and+Radio+Shack&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=irishbillyd.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=irishbillyd"&gt;</description><comments>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!806.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!806.entry</guid><pubDate>Wed, 18 Jul 2007 13:31:23 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!806/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!806.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2007-07-28T21:49:54Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Time off and rest</title><link>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!631.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;I was facing a colonoscopy.  I thought I could not find a ride.  Just as I turning the corner to go into Social Security, my phone rang and someone from DAV called me and said they would pick me up.  I later got ready to take the stuff that was clean me out and found out I was not supposed eat that morning.  I was only supposed to have something like boullion.  Then I had had a sandwich.  So I called them and cancelled rescheduled.  It is a pain the hiney.  Soon to be literal.  LOL....But I got 2 days off and then don't go into work until 4 pm....&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am not sure why, but I cannot get online after midnite here at my house for some reason.  So I always just go to bed.  It's one more reason I wasn't a place of my own.  But I need income to afford it.  I am having a hard time sleeping tonight.  Don't know why.  I am going through the lonely's tonight.  I listen to the Jazz station on the radio.  I miss my son's, I cannot even e-mail anyone now because I cannot get on line.  I read the news.  I am a little pissed.  I am not sure who or what to be pissed at.  Evidently, Wei is downloading something.  So, I cannot get online.  So....This was an older post..from a few days ago and I put it on my computer then forgot to post it... the date is off.....&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=4752803339973620551&amp;page=RSS%3a+Talking+about+Can't+Sleep%2c+can't+get+on+line+after+midnite+here.&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=irishbillyd.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=irishbillyd"&gt;</description><comments>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!629.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!629.entry</guid><pubDate>Fri, 16 Mar 2007 21:02:28 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!629/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!629.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2007-03-16T21:03:24Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>I chose Life</title><link>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!594.entry</link><description>&lt;div&gt;Death stalks nearby.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;I have smelled you nearby, tasted your rankness, felt your smooth slime on my hands and chest.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;When you are near, I hear your raspy whisper and usually, I ignore you!&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;But, this time I chose Life! And I chose Sobriety!  And I chose this day whom I will serve!&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;As for me and my house we will serve the LORD!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=4752803339973620551&amp;page=RSS%3a+I+chose+Life&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=irishbillyd.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=irishbillyd"&gt;</description><comments>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!594.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!594.entry</guid><pubDate>Sun, 11 Feb 2007 01:47:23 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!594/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!594.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2007-02-11T01:47:23Z</dcterms:modified></item><item><title>Well being, Chinese, Polish, Irish style</title><link>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!216.entry</link><description>&lt;p&gt;I was really down and out had no place to go.  I was going to give up my computer, move into a half way house.  So I says to my coworker, Pat, (You think he's the Irish one huh?), Do you want a computer? and He say's hang on a minute,  Let me talk to Wei.  So on New Years Eve, Wei, Pat and I moved all my belongings into Wei's house, into my new room that I am now renting.  Pat is the Polish guy.  Wei is the Chinese guy.  I am Irish.  Wei says we will help if you ask.  So I did.  Now I stay up late like I used to watching wrestling more than ever....Oooo doggy....Eating pizza and trying to be 25 again.  God am I tired.  But am I having fun and smiling more.  Pat has put more memory into my computer, I am on cable and faster than DSL was.  So I live with 2 computer geniuses.  Who knows what my future holds...Just watch my connections...LOL

&lt;div&gt;I moved and now I have to move again.  I am struggling financially and really need to be looking for a better job rather than whining.  So for the last month I have not been able to get DSL so I thought.  Why?  Because, I had it hooked into the wrong slot.  I had it hooked not into the DSL slot, but into the ethernet slot like the last guy before me had been doing when I took his computer down.  So, when I connected mine after the move, I plugged the phone line into the wrong place and kept complaining that I now service and the tech's could not figure it out.  Today, I took it all down and was going to storm down to the phone company and tell them a thing or two.  After I had some breakfast, I rehooked and that is when I discovered for a month I have had no service because of my own stupidity.  The  moral to that story...Check your connections.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;img src="http://c.services.spaces.live.com/CollectionWebService/c.gif?cid=4752803339973620551&amp;page=RSS%3a+Well+being%2c+Chinese%2c+Polish%2c+Irish+style&amp;referrer=" width="1px" height="1px" border="0" alt=""&gt;&lt;img style="position:absolute" alt="" width="0px" height="0px" src="http://c.live.com/c.gif?NC=31263&amp;amp;NA=1149&amp;amp;PI=73329&amp;amp;RF=&amp;amp;DI=3919&amp;amp;PS=85545&amp;amp;TP=irishbillyd.spaces.live.com&amp;amp;GT1=irishbillyd"&gt;</description><comments>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!216.entry#comment</comments><guid isPermaLink="true">http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!216.entry</guid><pubDate>Thu, 19 Jan 2006 20:09:48 GMT</pubDate><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><msn:type>blogentry</msn:type><live:type>blogentry</live:type><live:typelabel>Blog entry</live:typelabel><wfw:commentRss>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!216/comments/feed.rss</wfw:commentRss><wfw:comment>http://irishbillyd.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!41F55974CE6AF347!216.entry#comment</wfw:comment><dcterms:modified>2006-01-19T20:15:16Z</dcterms:modified></item></channel></rss>
