Random news and other nonsense

I have been very busy with work this week. For anyone who doesn't know, I work with the village retards at the local community college. One of those retards decided to call in a bomb threat on Tuesday. I'm not complaining though, I had half the day off after all.
I also sold my first "expensive" item on ebay the other day. I sold my old door stop of a computer for a final bid of $112.50 but the guy who won never paid and so I still own my door stop for the time being.
Talked to Maria the other day. She is my mother's friend from way back in the communist days in the mother land. I asked her to help me track down my dad and she agreed but I am not getting too excited just yet. For no apparent reason no one talks about my dad or likes to give me too much information about him. She may just have said yes and may end up blowing me off about it later, we'll see. Don't really know what I would do if I did meat him but it will probably look like one of those talk show scenes where everyone is doing one of those ugly face hysterical crying things!
Aunt Lucy will be here next week. I love to have her here but check back with me in February!
Stay tuned. I am trying to get a picture of Chad in his recently purchased orange "shorts" on the blog.
