I never got back to you on my last entry. Oh well, it happens. November looks like an upbeat month, with Thanksgiving about to roll around the corner. The best part of this month is the three, yet three, paychecks. I'm going to attempt to save my whole second paycheck...yum. The perks of being salary isn't as great as hourly, yet my job doesn't really do the overtime thing. Plus, the on-call phone has included pay with it which means more money. Woohoo! This month is filled with Scorpio's who endure birthdays with happiness, excitement, and the spirit of good tidings. Thanksgiving will pass us like the turkey wings that I enjoy eating, BLACK FRIDAY will go quickly once again and me not needing to make my way to these crazy stores. Maybe I'll try this year. Might as well since we will be playing Halo until 4am.

Be right back...maybe. lol

Look I'm back and motivated...


Once upon a time...
...there was a man who was granted one wish. He was given three days to come up with this wish before the wish would not happen. The man didn't think anything of it, until he began to think of all the things he never had. As a young boy, years before he found himself in a candy store where he could not resist the temptation to buy everything in the store. Unfortunately, he only had a couple coins given to him by his grandma to buy dinner. The little boy turned around, left the candy store with the same possessions. Walking sadly down the street, he promised himself that one day he'll own the world. Between the time of this tragedy and this wish, he was blessed with a wonderful wife and children to bring happiness and hope into his life. So, knowing what he had already, a wish was hard to come by, even with all the things he never had. Minutes before his wish was bound to vanish forever, he granted himself a wish that would last forever. He wished for nothing. Suddenly the wish was stunned with this man's unselfish gesture. The wish granted this man and his family a farewell and disappeared. Although the man was confused why he out of many would be granted a wish. Later, he was given a letter that was unbelievable to even his eyes. The power of the wish brought warmth to those around this man.

We can't all have what we wish for, but knowing that there's someone to keep us from wanting more, we'll continue to be happy.
