1) I made a financial move that saved me $600 I thought I lost (long personal story)

2) I visited with some loved-ones that made me happy.

3) I got a job interview set up for a job I really need.

4) I bought a lot of non-perishable food in case like it comes down to that. It’s like 2 months food. Not especially enjoyable eating but not hungry. It’s a strange thing to enjoy but I enjoyed it.

I had a good day.

Not a bad day by any means. Hope the interview works out. Being jobless can suck. I actuslly had a great dau today. Work went well. I slept well the night before. Was feeling sick a little bit this morning but it passed.

It's official. 12 straight hours. My positives for today:

1. I haven't had a heart attack.

2. My neighbor whose old dog I watch came by around noon. I let him know how sick I was and he asked if I had Pepto. I told him I ran out. He comes back 20 minutes later with a brand new bottle of it. Gotta love neighbors that help each other out in little ways.

3. Bright pink vomit is pretty cool. Very girlish.

4. Safe to say I've lost some weight today.

I love being jobless

So you do what you gotta do (hopefully)

I only have the one handgun too. Seeing as yours only holds five rounds I assume it's pretty large caliber? Funny, we all grew hearing about six shooters when in fact the first revolvers were all five shooters.

For my Glock I have both FMJ and JHP 9MM ammo. You?

I was in that situation for almost a year until I was fortunate enough to find the job I have now. I'm a year and a half in and I'm still enjoying it.

1. I got off of work at noon thirty.
2. I had a nice sandwich at Jersey Mike's.
3. I was able to find a little bit of work to hold me over until the next paycheck.
4. I heard a pretty good album with Aaron Edge on it.
