I updated my Amazon Store. I've managed to sell about $4 worth of stuff on it in the past three years. Well, $4 worth of profit. It's so low that Amazon won't mail it out. If you are buying, though (hint, hint) anything from Amazon for sure in the next few weeks (or anytime), send me the product ID info and I'll add it to the store. I don't think you pay any more for the item, but I do get like a penny or something for the referral.
Anyway - if you don't mind, please go to the store page and click on some products. I'm trying to figure out if Amazon is recognizing the "clicks" or not. It shows no clicks at all, which is certainly possible but also curious.
The holidays are in full effect, so tell us: What's your favorite holiday song? Bonus points if you share it with us!
Its funny how some people try do things every day, over and over and never get better at what they are trying to do. I pretty much show up at school at the same day, every day. Each day as I sit in my Jeep and munch on my bagel, I see the same girl drive in with her snazzy supped up street racer of a car and attempt to park. EVERY DAY this girl tries to back in to the same space about 4 times then gets mad and zooms away to some other spot where she finally pulls in nose first. When she does land a keeper spot it’s usually after giving up on three other spots and usually after the second or third try at each of the previous spots. She will zoom in, get out and walk around her car, get back in, back out and pull right back in the same spot, get out and so on. She hasn’t figured out that if you back up and pull forward without turning the wheel, you will end up in the same place. She always looks so frustrated. Today I almost walked over to help her out by telling her there are point along the edge of her hood that are in line with her front tires and if you use those to help point your car, you will end up in the right spot every time. At the last minute I decided not to. If I try to help her out she just might scream and call the police because a strange man walked up to her in a public place. OR if I say something and she does learn how to park then what am I supposed to watch while I eat my bagel every morning? Like I always say, “some times it’s the simple things that keep us entertained”.
WOW, today has been pretty crazy and it’s not even noon yet. Today is registration for the winter quarter day so last night I got all my classes is order so I would be ready right at 8:00 am when the online registration opened. I got up at 6:00am, logged in and got everything ready so all I had to do was hit enter. When 8:00am rolled around I hit enter and bam! Nothing but errors! So I get dressed in about 10 seconds and race down town to school only to find no parking AND 300 people in line ahead of me. NICE! When I finally got up to see someone who could help me the woman says all of the errors are because I was trying to take to many units? I told her I was full time so I should be able to sign up for up to 20 units and I was having issues with 12? She says “oh you are listed as part time”? Huh? Ok, now I get to wait in giant ass line two to get a counselor to change my status to full time. When I got that fixed it was back in to giant ass line 1 to get the rest of my classes. Sheesh! I ended up having breakfast in the school dining facility which isn’t to bad accept the large coffee tastes like it was scalded. I don’t care, I’ll drink it anyway. I only have one more week of class then one final left in this quarter. It’s gone by real fast but I have learned a lot. It’s kind of like trying to take a sip of water from a fire hose but will all of the extra time I invested in my school work the fire hose water doesn’t hurt like it usually does. Next quarter starts up on January 4th. I will be taking English, Math and PE. Yeah, PE at 42! This might be pretty entertaining.
