Is this for real?

Kent said that an air guitar is basically an invisible guitar. So, here's a funny ad that I came across on Craig's List:


Slightly Used Air Guitar. In Great Condition. - $5

"My old man gave me this air guitar on my tenth birthday and it's brought me nothing but joy. Great for thrashing and whaling. Will take five dollars or best offer. Price includes one set of air strings and an excellent air stand."

Jessica vs. Modes of Transportation

Transportation Mode #1
Yesterday I was on my way to another waste-of-time job fair when, as usual, I passed up the building. So, I had to turn around in a drive way. However, when I began to back out of the driveway my car started making a HORRIBLE scraping noise. YIKES! Let me just tell you, I freak out when my car starts making a noise. I do not pass mildly concerned or slightly alarmed. I go directly to freaked out! Cars really stress me out. I have no idea how they work, they can ruin your day at any random moment, and they're expensive to repair or replace. I seriously thought my wheel was going to fall off. After a couple of minutes it stopped making the noise so I went on to the job fair. After the "fair" I drove home. The whole way home, every time I hit a bump I would hear a scrape! I was just praying "please don't let my wheel fall off." Eventually I made it home. I got out of the car and looked in the wheel well. What do I see wrapped around in there? A coat hanger, excellent. So we pulled it out....

Transportation Mode #2
Later that day I decided to ride my bike for some much needed stress relief and to burn some calories. I got on my bike with the tires all full of air and the seat lowered to just my height. I had been biking for about 30 minutes. Enjoying the breeze in my hair and the sunshine when I began to think, "Man, bikes are great. I should really just ride a bike instead of driving. You don't have to worry about breaking down, or getting it stolen (compartively cheap to replace) or hitting dogs and cats! Plus, no gas! This could definately work. I'm going to look for a job to which I can ride my bike everyday." No sooner did I start thinking about how wonderful bikes are then my BIKE PEDAL FLEW OFF! Perfect, and on a busy corner where everyone could see! I had a long walk home pushing a bike. I did not even dare to think about how great walking everywhere would be. I probably would have fallen.

Tomorrow's Job Interview

....Administrative Assistant at a Medical Billing office. We'll see.

No Job...Nothing to do

Hi. I thought I would jump on the bandwagon with the blogging. It gives me something to do anyway. Even if I only entertain myself with this, I'm happy.
Well, I thought I'd begin my first post with a description of my typical day:

7:00 am Wake up with kent fix him his lunch and wave goodbye.
7:30 am Go back to sleep
8:00 - 10:30 am Wake up about 20 times and try to decide if I should wake up knowing that would just give me more hours of nothing to do but eat, or should I sleep and therefore prevent myself from eating constantly. Of course I choose sleeping.
10:30 -11:00 am Sometime during this window I wake up
11:00 - Noon Eat Breakfast, check the classified ads, check email, check craigslist.
Afternoon Mail out resume's and watch 7th Heaven
after 5:30 Eat dinner, follow Kent around the house, and feed my addiction (realityTV)
10:30 pm Go to bed, watch tv till midnight, then sleep.

**Sometimes my whole routine is shattered because I substitute teach!!**

Exciting!
