musingsfromtheweirdside.blogspot.com 8/5/2009 — Finally, after over a year of trying, I have a part time job working at a paint store. It's nothing glamorous, but the hours work well around school and the guy who runs it is nice. I go in later today for paperwork. Unfortunately, this means my writing time is getting cut and I need to focus my ...
