Some days I just wish I had my digital camera on me at all times. Here at the shithole it’s been storming. Winds are blowing pretty hard and the rain has been pouring down fast. The great sign out front of the place just had the shit kicked out of it.

The bottom portion where the letters go to make up the messages on the sign just got blown off. I can’t say “just” of course. I have no idea when it actually happened. No windows to look out where I sit. Not that I give a shit either. That sign is so old it was just held together with spit and duct tape. The cheap fucks that own the place never would fix anything the correct way. And now it’s been blown over sort of speak.

I’ll go get my camera in the morning and snap a pic for my collection. I can take my time of course. Because the sign won’t be fixed to fast. They will have to spend money and stuff. In fact I predict it will be all fucked up for a few days at the least. More than enough time for me to get my camera and take my time doing so.

Another year has come and gone. Today I celebrate the day that I was fired. I got fired back in 1998 on this day. Since then I take this day to look back and give thanks for making it another year. I also do not work on this day and I don’t think I will work on this day ever again. 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004 have all been the previous years I’ve done this little write up celebrating this day.

This could be the last time I have this day off while working at the hotel. Opportunities may become available if I play my cards right. It would be odd to not be working at the hotel and have this day off. Which makes me wonder if this is something I should celebrate? What point does it serve to do so? Nothing is really gained from this day when I take it off except for lost wages. But sometimes I guess it’s worth it. Just maybe seeing how I’ve outlasted everyone that was involved in firing me. It doesn’t count for much, but it’s enough for me.

The usual suspects I owe my thanks to as I’ve mentioned in the years past. Nothing to drastic has changed since the first right I did back in 1999. That post is as true today as it was back in 99. As are the individuals I’ve mentioned in the years after that first one. I owe whatever meager success I mange to accomplish to those of you that support me both monetarily and mentally. Thank you and good night.
