I made enough money to buy Miami

"I have been drunk now for over two weeks" - Jimmy Buffett - 'A Pirate Looks at Forty'

Jobs/Money
I talked w/ my co-worker + boss (two different people) at the radio station in the past two days. Good news travels fast. We've gotten the OK to carry IU football + basketball, VU basketball, and HS football + basketball. Then the co-host and I are going to meet w/ the Gary Railcats to see if we can carry their games. If that goes through, the station will finally start to go somewhere.

So, along those lines, I doubt I'll be taking the driving job. I'll be kicking myself for turning down $15/hr ($600/wk, $2400/mo, $28,800/yr), but I need to give the radio gig a chance. And with that, I'll be sticking around at Lowe's until something better comes along. The driving job, as you recall, is from 7-4, as opposed to Lowe's 5-2. Those 2 hours make all the difference in the world.

I got my gov. tax return back and got paid on the same day. Boom-shock-a-lock-a-boom. I paid off my Penney's card. I owe them no more! Now, I've just got my Mastercard + Discover @ roughly $1400 combined. It's not too bad, considering I'll be putting my tax return to the two of them, plus $100 from each paycheck ($200 a month for each cc).

Life
It's St. Patty's Weekend and I'm heading up to the Err Dizzle's for the day/afternoon/evening/night to drink. Yay for the snakes in Ireland.

On the other hand, Tulsa is getting handled by Memphis. It's 42-15 in the second half, 19:04 to go as I write this. Memphis just scored again. Ouch, not much of a challenge. I'm hoping Memphis can do something this year in the NCAA Tourney. I've been following them for the past 3-4 years and they've been playing some great ball.

The tix came for the final Blackhawks home game. The Err Dizz and I will again drink, and watch some Canucks beat on each other. What could be better?

So barmaid bring a pitcher; another round of brew.
