we don't even separate anything, just dump it all in the can. I cannot fathom that there are people on the other end sorting my recyclingQuote:

Bad experience with Clark shoes: bought a lightly used pair of clogs at a nice consignment shop. Looked in great shape. Wore them today and in the space of 300 yards they literally fell apart - the heel came off one, the soles separated on the sides, then the heel came off of the other one. I shuffled back to my car and came home and threw them in the trash.
Googled "Clark shoes falling apart" and there were hundreds of complaints going back at least 7 years.
What the heck? Clarks used to be very good shoes but I'm posting here so others may take heed.
Trolls who bait, driving in the snow.
I understand Windows 10 is going to be foisted on us whether we want it or not, unless we check our settings and change them, if necessary.
This may be the straw that broke the camel's back for me.
I am so ready to give up on having house mates lately. Not that he has done ANYTHING wrong. It's just that he hasn't left the house in two days and it's beginning to wig me out having a human presence here 24/7. So in addition to the chaos of my work schedule and the crap it is causing in my life outside of work, I have to deal with someone elses random (and do I really mean random - I have NO idea when he is going out or coming in or taking a shower in the one bathroom I have, or cooking). It's not helping that this is the hardest winter ever that I am going through mentally and physically; I just want to be alone in my own house so bad...
April cannot come soon enough! Okay, rant over, I must remember that the rent money I get from this funds a lot of fun things in my life (however, having the extra income tax-wise it is not as good as I had originally thought). So going forward, I will either take a nice long break from renting my extra room or just deciding that I don't feel like doing it anymore. Some days it feel like the lack of privacy just isn't worth it...
SQ, when one is used to living alone, having someone there living independently is a big shift. Hang in there; only a few more weeks and you're free, free, free at last. :) At least you are being somewhat compensated for his presence.
Thanks Steve! And it WAS and IS my choice to do this in the first place, but it just goes to show ultimately how much I really crave my own space. However, he is a really nice and very interesting guy, and totally opposite from the last guy who paid me rent for four months and was hardly ever here! At least "J" will be going out of town for mid-winter break for over a week so I can get some respite :)
I am attending the worst Go to Meeting ever on a new software monitoring system we have to employ in the classroom and I am ready to quit even part-time--God, this place is SO DUMB and teaching has become a torturous Orwellian exercise in futility--Never, ever, did I want to be Big Brother, much less suffer under Big Brother.
God I hate this job, even on a part-time basis.
any prospects of changing jobs?
