Man…today is a day to be put down in history. The space shuttle Columbia exploded on reentry this morning at 8:00. It was said that all over Texas it was heard when it happened. I didn’t hear it though. I was at DQ counting the store. (I got there early, at 7:30 to do it.)

There was a lot to deal with today. First, I had to count the store, then set up the store, then do paperwork, then enter the inventory into the computer, while working the cash register. At 11:00, Amanda came, and that took the pressure of taking orders away so I could get the office work done. After that I called a girl to set up an interview, but she wasn’t home. Then, the laborious task of scrubbing the concrete patio is my next job.

Ugh…I’m sleepy. I also had to talk to Amanda about what happened last night. She didn’t want to hear it, and gave me all kinds of stories about what my brother did/didn’t do and denied all the allegations against her and Carol. Then I talked to Carol and she gave me a bland runaround about how she is here to do a job and that these people are just kids, so it doesn’t matter what they think or say, and she doesn’t think that she is slow. Blah Blah Blah. That’s all there is to it. I am going to just have to leave on person in charge so they can take the heat for what went wrong.

Anyway, I’m sleepy. Laterz.

I'm Neo, creator of the-spot.net. This journal is a digital form of the paperback journal that I kept each day from December 21, 2002 until March 23, 2003. It details my life experiences during those three months: the transition from college sophomore to adult, interactions with my parents, and general life after leaving the private college on-campus "bubble". These days I'm much better now, and living on my own. I haven't talked to my parents since May 2005 when my brother graduated high school.
