I was living at my homie Eric's crib for idk how long, but I got a job last week at a computer repair shop out here called Papa Chips, and it's actually walking distance for me. However it's only minimum wage, and the main profit I get is by tips.

Anyway it may not be the best job, but it's worth it. I work at 8am to 3pm which is the perfect hours for me. I was really lucky too, cause they weren't gonna get me the job until I showed them what I can do so they made an exception. Not to mention I've known everyone who works there for like 10 years.

Anyway at least it's some kind of money.

I also found out my dad pulled a trick on my sis, and I with the moving thing just to get us off our ass's to find a job, or at least work on getting our GED. Well my sis is living with her baby daddy, and I'm back at my dad's crib. Anyway I'm back, and in my spare time like I was doing before when I was living at Eric's is I'll be developing software, and going to start working on making a Fundamentals of Gimp video. It'll most likely be an hour if not longer, but for the Gimp noobs out there it'll really help. However I won't make a text tutorial for it though.

Oh by the way CamDesk for Linux is released so if you do a lot of screencasting you may wanna give it a try. (I re-designed the website from top to bottom as well)

So I will still be here, but not as much as before, cause I'll be working. I get weekends off, but I don't get holidays off, which suck, cause I love Thanksgiving (we have chicken instead of turkey)

Anyway I'm Back!

Things sound like they're going a bit better for you. Happy you are back here.

Congrats on your new job! Now you won't need to hike the Appalachian Trail, unless you really want to.

Glad to see you back Mikey. I knew it wouldn't be long. You are a very talented dude and we miss you when you are gone....
BTW I have been along the Appalachian Trail in a Motor Home and I don't recommend it. beautiful, but scary, beautiful places to pull over to take fantastic panoramic picture.

Glad to know that you are back off the street mike

Glad you are back in the saddle again! That is pretty awesome that you are working with computers...you never know where that can lead. You have a lot of talent in the area, and the contacts you will make might be helpful some day.

Very happy for you Mike. Glad you're Dad also allowed you to have a place to stay too. Kind of nice to here good news for a change (this world's going to pot).

I knew you would be ok......it's great to have a job.

just show people you have an excellent work ethic and people will depend on you. and when that happens they WANT you around

That probably wouldn't be an option anyway, cause the cops are arresting homeless people, cause that can't provide for theirself. The cops think, "hey we're helping them", and the homeless people are sitting there thinking, "what the hell did I do?". Not to mention hiking if I had to sleep, and I sleep under a bridge or something like I've done before I'd haft to worry about the cops, someone jumping me, or some dude calling the cops complaining about me sleeping on his property, cause mostly everything is owned by either an individual, a company, or the government.

Either way I'm gonna save up my money, and get a car. idk what it is as long as I can get from place to place, and don't haft to walk, or take the bus.


Thanks, and I agree


Thanks, but hey why you gotta hate on pot? It's great

Maybe so Mike but toker I'm not. lol

Glad to see your gonna be okay Mike.Welcome back.

Welcome back Mike...Look forward to seeing more of you around here

Hey Mikey, you are a natural behind that Camera, you look so comfortable when you are speaking. Keep up the good work my friend.....
