I'll have to remember not to use Priority Mail; I send eBay items using First Class mail and it never seems to take more than three days - even to the West Coast.

I wouldn't have taken this job if I wasn't desperate. I knew from the time of the interview that I was dealing with a whole dysfunctional family. They love the drama. I never thought I would be looking forward to SS in January '14. P.S. Hope the pain is easing a little.

Good name! Twice lately I backed into people who were in such a hurry that the pulled behind me to get around while I was backing up, and I hit them. The first one tried to make it about me, the second one, I just told him straight out that it was his fault. Never heard anything again from either one.
