People of Wal-Mart

I used to think that the great clash of philosophic ideology between Platonism and Aristotelian ideas would determine and steer the course of this nation. Statism vs. Individualism in a life and death struggle and the people of the United States goes the victor.

My opinion, quite different now, is a dismal realization that America is already in a death spiral as we suffocate ourselves when we stick our heads in the Wal-Mart shopping bag looking for the last bag of Twinkies. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you our future: www.peopleofwalmart.com

2. Water went out for half a week
3. Water pump failed on my car
4. Dish washing machine died
5. I did NOT get the fire department job even though I was in the top position. *politics*
6. Wife is totally stressing over money

Fuck you for having a busy signal for six fucking hours to your customer service center. Even Dell answers their phone when their customers call.

So far so good

This year is already pretty freaking sweet! My daughter and I spent the morning on the couch watching cartoons. She was so quiet that I was able to sleep for most of it.

Then, as I am typing this blog, my wife brings me a sandwich. Maybe my Fire Department will call today and say that I get the slot that just opened! Here's to 2010!

9) Resolve to stop procrastinating
10) Resolve to
