Here is just a quick link about a scientific discovery of the secret to keeping cells from aging.

Here I go to my first day of doing telephone surveys. I hope it’s not as bad as it has been growing to be in my mind.

Anna went to Medicine Hat yesterday for her sister’s birthday party. I’m not exactly sure, but her brother Joshua’s birthday is also coming right up so they might have had his party this weekend too. I know Anna was buying presents for both of them. Anyway she’s almost back at home now so I’m going to run. I’ll try and scrounge up something interesting to do tonight so that I’ll have something more interesting to blog about tomorrow.

The other day at his work, my roommate cut his hand and had to go to the hospital. He had three stitches and a week off work – paid. He said he was pretty happy about getting a paid vacation, but unfortunately for him he just got diagnosed with Strep throat so it looks like he’s going to be sick during the time that he is off. Life’s like that sometimes; maybe it’s karma?

I went to the police station and filed a report. It looks like the purpose of the report is just so that in the event that I find the mower in a pawn shop or second hand store I can say, “Um hey! That’s my mower and I have this peice of paper as proof”. I went around to pawn shops this morning and came up empty handed. As far as paying with a credit card and having some sort of theft protection goes, I used my Sears card which I found out does not give you any kind of insurance on your purchase. I only even used it to get the points so I wouldn’t have paid with my visa anyway. Maybe I should start… Well, I suppose the sooner I forget about it the sooner I can stop feeling bad about it. As I explained to Anna-Maria, it could have been a lot worse – like they could have actually robbed something from inside the house or perhaps a car accident or something. You’ve got to keep it in perspective, at least nobody died.

Some degenearate primate saw my lawnmower sitting against the back side of Anna’s house and decided it would be a good idea to steal it. Anna figures it might be the two Indians that routinely prowl the alley “looking for things to pawn”. Personally, I thought at first it might be that guy who was so interested in checking out my new lawnmower. I should never have left it out at her house. I should have taken it home. In fact I would have taken it home except for the fact that I knew that as soon I as I took it home Anna’s yard would need mowing and I even started mowing it yesterday except that I ran out of gas almost immediately. Why do people steal? Just buy your own frickin stuff and if you can’t afford it then get a job you @#$&*! lowlife scumbags.

Tracking Down My Stuff

I called the police and they said I could come down and fill out a report. I called Sears to see if they had a record of my serial number. Of course – they didn’t. They said that their computers don’t have a place to record serial numbers, just model numbers. Luckily enough for me, although I packed the lawnmower box full of junk for spring cleaning, the garbage men have not come around to collect the big stuff yet and so the box was still out there serial number intact. I’m going to fill out a report form at the police station now.
