Oregon Fail
Get ready for a blast from the past. It’s 1994 and you’re back in elementary school. It’s Wednesday, so it’s time to go to the computer lab for activity. You have your choice of three games: Reader Rabbit (weak), Math Blaster (super weak), or everyone’s favorite–Oregon Trail. It’s funny, I never remember actually seeing the Continue reading

You’re fired.
This past Tuesday I went into work only to be met with a paycheck and the phrase, “Don’t bother clocking in.” Apparently I was fired because I wasn’t available to work the hours I was scheduled. Which, of course is total bullshit. I told the owners the week I was hired that I wouldn’t be Continue reading

Wedding Dance!
This past weekend I went to two weddings. The first wedding was for two friends of mine that I went to high school with, Carissa and D-Rob (short for Daniel Robert). Since Oz was a groomsman in the wedding, I had the inside scoop on what would go down during the ceremony: (Unfortunately, the video Continue reading
