I've never written a check I new was going to bounce, but hopefully the copy guy won't cash it until Monday when I'll be able to put money in the bank. On a new subject, I've decided that I'm not a big fan of sleep for long periods. I'm more of a nap girl. I really need to get in touch with my webmistress, I've paid for the website, but have not heard from her.

May is coming this evening. I'm going to have her read my Nanowrimo novel beginning. No new words in that yet today. Words in everything else, however. This was a very good writing day, so far.

As my food stamps came, I plan to send my PCA shopping to fill my bare cupboards. I already made a shopping list. Tomorrow, I'm working a show and going to use $20 of food stamps to help out people at a boy scout food drive. It'll make me less likely to buy treats or junk, as I decided to donate that money to buying neighbors in need REAL FOOD. It's good for my soul and my waistline. Can't beat that!

Today is my one month anniversary on Nutang; I just realized. I posted by first entry on 10/19 at 3:47 PM. I've earned 41.5 cents so far. I like Nutang a lot. It's very freeing to me. I use Nutang as my personal journal and it's cool to paid for having a personal journal. Bonus! Happy anniversary to me! Hopefully I'll make payout within the next 11 months; that's my goal!

Not that I will have it for very long as is always the case with me, but I got my disability bonus payment from the Obama administration. I may dislike the man right now, but I'm not going to refuse his money which means, I suppose, that he can't be all that evil. He just needs to get over all this power hungry bullshit (I'm not sure I can say that word on this website, but I'll try for investigative purposes if nothing else) and get back to his Chicago community organizer roots. Watching what happened to him kind of made me glad I never won any of the offices I ran for.

I think I'm getting a cold which is so bad right now because I'm off to New York City on Wednesday. But I took medicine and my voice is back enough to dictate this with no serious strain to my vocal cords. Let's see. What am I going to spend the money on? Hair stuff (including a hair appointment), bus tickets, printing supplies, and that's about it. If I have enough left over, I'll treat myself to a movie. I really want to see the new Terminator and the latest Night at the Museum. I also need to buy Shannon, my friends daughter, a New York City present I was just informed by her. That little girl is going to get spoiled but after all she's been through she's entitled to be a little spoiled. They have great free kids books at Book Expo America even though she's 13 she reads at a second or third grade level. I'm going to do a little shopping and see if I can find her something interesting for her age range on her reading level.

That's all for now. I will log in before I leave and try to post from New York City so you all know I'm alright. If you're going to Book Expo yourself visit booth 5060 in writer's row. That's me.

It didn't start out that way. My day started out kind of lazy. I had trouble getting out of bed. I hope I'm not catching anything because I simply have no time for it this weekend. I went over all my supplies for the show and seemed pretty prepared. The postcards didn't come out the way I wanted them to, but I'm surviving. Art is, of course, not perfect. I tried to call my Christmas PCA and she didn't answer or send me the email she was supposed to. I'm keeping the faith, however. Ivy doesn't seem like the sort of girl who would just not call you ever, but you never know. I'm still looking for a ride to Easthampton on Sunday so I can go to work. I have a ride back but not to. I'm sure something will come up.

I got paid by one of the websites I write for today and promptly mailed the money via paypal to Dan. I think now I've completed 10% debt repayment to him. It's not much and I have a lot to go, but you have to start somewhere I think. I never keep any of the money I earn online. I owe and owe and owe. Maybe next year if I get grants I can actually be out of debt. I finished a goal on another website. I answered a discussion in every interest I had there. I know it was a weird goal, but it was interesting because I got to explore aspects of my personality I don't hang out with much. I'm pretty sure I'll make payout on three websites for the month of January. That's myLot, blogit, and today. I won't make payout here because I only average a few cents per day here, but I enjoy it. My goal is to make payout here by the end of 2009.

I worked all day today. and was more awake today than ever because i got 6 hours of sleep in a row which is really weird. i have to spastic i usual wake up ever 3-4 hours a night but last night i woke up at 6 am. i never sleep for 6 hours if i didnt that i would be more happy and productive.

working was lousy i only made about 30 $ spent 10 on lunch and a new cash box because my old cheap plastic one kept breaking and i replaced it 4 times in 1 yr as the new box as 5.25 i couldn't resist it. i found the perfect Christmas gift for my step dad but its way out of my price range i have 150$ i think I'm going to buy him a football helmet with 4 signatures of 4 players. i think I'm gonna buy him it in 2009. and wont buy him anything until 2010 as he has 4 days in 2009 he usually gets stuff his on his birthday, Fathers Day, Stepfather's day he gets dad related days and he's basically my dad both ways. and Christmas i figure it will all fall together i just cant buy him anything else.

i hope tomorrow is better i haven't even made an enough to pay off my cable fee which is 50$ much less to pay Amy back for the shoes or any money for me or to pay bills the economic is falling people come look at your stuff and don't buy anything. i hope everything gets better with Obama.

Hi,

I forgot to post to you all that I got home for Christmas on Tuesday (finally). Today was Christmas and I got lots of loot, several gift cards, some sweaters and a bit of money. I'm going shopping at the post Christmas sales tomorrow. It's the best time to get deals particularly on Nutcrackers, which my mom loves, loves, loves.

Merry Christmas, everybody!
