SNOW, SNOW, SNOW AND MORE SNOW

All five major television stations officially switches to digital nearby my birthday on February 15. However, my television set isn't compatable. Sadly, I don't have enough cash to purchase a replacement television set. As a result, after my birthday, the only television I'll be able to watch would either be digital video disk, videotapes or on the internet.
Another crucial issues is my income tax. I received my w-2 forms for Meijer Grocery Store (I worked there for only four months maximum last year), Wendy's Restaurant (I worked there for only eight months last year) and Burger King Restaurant (I worked there all twelve months). Filling out the income tax returns isn't fun, but it's a necessary task.

CELLULAR TELEPHONES AS THE EXCLUSIVE WINDOW TO THE WORLD

I'm employed by two fast food restaurants. The paychecks from Burger King Restaurant and Wendy's Restaurant is enough to pay the rent and three fourth's of the bills. However, it's hard to scrap together enough cash to eat at Burger King and Wendy's on a regular basis. Still, it's nice to have a fifty percent meal discount. That certainly helps keep myself on budget.

WINTER IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

My Wendy's Restaurant paycheck is going to be handed out today. However, I won't be able to mail payment for the water bill until Wednesday. Yes, I know it's not normal for Lexington Park Apartments to make it's residents pay for the water. However, there's nothing I could do about such a situation. I'm thankful that all of my next door neighbors are all pleasent people to be around. I'm also thankful that I'm still able to earn a weekly income from Burger King Restaurant and Wendy's Restaurant. Yes, I'm not getting decent hours or a decent wage, but it's enough to pay the rent and three fourth of the bills.

WINTER IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

It's finally snowing in Columbus, Ohio. Oh wow, is the snow really falling down hard. If only I had a sled. Then I really would enjoy the snowstorm. Snow and downhill sledding really goes together.

THINGS TO BUY AND NOT MUCH MONEY TO PURCHASE THEM

I need a new television that's capable of receiving digital transmissions. I also need to purchase a microwave oven. The last time I had a microwave oven was in 1997. I also need a digital printer for my computer. The microwave oven is the cheapest of the three to aquire.

ANOTHER DAY IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

Ohio State University lost the Fiesta Bowl. I don't really watch football much. I only watch football games if there wasn't anything better on television. I used to attend Ohio State University football games in the early 1990's, but I haven't done so recently. The lack of money is one reason. The lack of time is another reason. I also like to watch baseball games. I don't know anything about the football or the baseball players. I'm more of a casual viewer. I also watch women's gymnastics and figure skating competitions any chance I get.
I considered joining the track team when I attended Highland Park High School, but eventually chose not to do so. I was a member of the track team at Rockbridge High School for a year. I came last place each and every time, but I had fun. It was fun to visit other schools in Missouri. I didn't join any athletic teams during my endless years as a college student. My decision to join the track team despite not being fast enough was inspired by my grandfather. Grandpa was hanging around the track when he thought somebody was chasing him. He ran with fear and realized later that he wasn't being chased at all. Rather, he defeated the fastest runner in the track team. So he was offered a chance to join the high school track team and he did so. According to my grandfather, Max Victor Kaplan, he was one of the fastest runners in the track team. however, even if you don't win any track and field competitions, running and jogging is great exercise.
