Today marked the final day which another cartman is going to be working at the store. He is transferring to a department inside. Meanwhile, I learned later today that there is one additional person showing up who I didn't know to be scheduled beforehand, which means that this Saturday might be the first in the last four weeks where I won't be alone the entire day. Just in time for the holiday weekend.

I've reached the end of IRS form development for the Form 1120 series as listed in IRS Publication 4162 - while significant, I'm still in the thick of the process, because I have yet to do all of the free form attachments, much less compile and successfully create the actual test returns. Regardless, it is a milestone which I have reached.

I found a few things at a flea on Sunday, I've just been too lazy to capture their images and post.
In the meantime, this just happened.

A pair of teenage boys were coming into the store and dragging their bikes with them.
"I'm sorry, you can't bring them in here. This is a store, not a garage."
I hear one of the boys mumble something and then the other one said, "This FUCKING guy, I'm not getting my fucking bike stolen".
They ...

I think I'd rather shoot myself in the groin and sit on a salt lick instead of trying to talk one of my relatives through working with a computer over the phone ever again. So awful.

Paid a visit to a family member to confirm that a wall-outlet modem is likely dead and needs to be replaced. Good use of time there.

He understood the purpose behind these Saturday tours with his Dad - that it was to show everyone else that he would be part of the business, and that he could be trusted. It was also a way for his Dad to parade him around, to show others what kind of respectful child he has raised. He figured it ...

One visit after another went essentially like that visit to Louis, and there was one underlying thing about it all which he didn't quite get. The mystery wasn't so much what his Dad did, as far as he was told all while he was raised.

The main thing that Marcus didn't get was ...

I took a few pictures of discarded shopping lists today, as I haven't seen much of anything about that lately. Sure enough, there's still plenty of places which do that now, so I probably won't bother with it after all.

For most other families it was Sunday when the best attire was to be flaunted in public, but for Marcus, that day was Saturday. This Saturday began and bore on like so many others before it. There was first the ...

New blood lent a hand today. It was his third day on the job overall. Young guy. I asked him if he was going to school still, and upon affirming that, if he had a major. "Advertising, but I don't know for sure.", he said, without any further explanation. I thought about it for a bit, then asked "So what do you think the future of advertising will even be?", citing the recent issue between Ford and Facebook. "I have no idea - that's why I don't know if I should stick with ...

Just to bring up news from the retail front. Last week, I was introduced to the newest hire for the cartmen staff. The next time he and I would be scheduled together was last Monday, but because he has to do the standardized training, I wouldn't have been able to work with him until today. As it turns out, that didn't happen, because he reported to the store today to announce that he has quit the job. From what someone else told me, he worked all of two days and seemed uncomfortable in the job. ...

Indecision got the best of me. There was a small meeting at a nearby restaurant today which held a presentation about Social Security income and other retirement income issues in respect to taxation. I had a notification of it sent to me and I didn't know if I would be available for today to go to it. Upon reviewing the document yesterday with the intent to go, I noticed the RSVP date set to earlier this month. Of course. Attending events like that is something which I'll need to make much more ...

This is the current location of the third Daron High Science Facility. The area alloted for this facility was determined when the island was built, and the first structure built here in 1858 was a simple single-story brick warehouse that was presented as a school. The building was set well within the interior of the property, and the perimeter of it was demarcated with an eight foot fence (made of wood at initial construction and upgraded to heavy ...

Last night was the night at the end of the work week for me, so I had some Black Label and played Diablo 3. I played for 90 minutes or so and had a few shots of the stuff, and only had a big mug of water to drink otherwise. I didn't feel any kind of unusual inebriation from the intake, but when I woke up this morning and all through the course of the day I've had a mild headache. Logic dictates that it would be related to the booze but I find it difficult to believe that I would have that strong ...

I didn't hit up many places this week and I struck out at the few that I did.
I went to Oswego to check out the couple of pawn shops that I was aware of. I never have much luck out there which always struck me as odd. It's a college town. Students are always buying shit they can't afford and then selling it for pot. It should be a gold mine.

My luck did not change. I got a couple cheap psp and ds games cib, but all the older stuff was damn near non existent or way over ...

I've developed some sort of sore on the right side of my neck. The sensation makes it feel like bad sunburn but upon closer inspection, the skin has a more concentrated and limited area of inflammation compared to a normal sunburn. I've felt it irritate me for the last few days but only took the time to inspect it further today.

She kept her hands crossed and felt her body shiver under the jacket, but when she heard the door creak open upstairs, she fixated upon the stairwell and waited to hear the knock upon the hardwood floor. It came - two quarters and two eighths in a quick staccato. Tap-tap-ta-tap. Unhurried foosteps echoed through the empty house and approached the doorway. Ridgeland then opened the door and shuffled down the stairs ...
