Apparently it's going to be difficult to do this on the daily...

I narrowly missed the chance to post this on the 23rd. I'll still try to make these entries a daily thing but I don't think I can count on it anymore. It would be difficult to find the time to do so anyway.

So when talking to my friend about moving in it looks like the date will be pushed back so I won't be moving in until around the beginning of next month. But I did get the chance to talk with him again. He seems to be doing well, we talked a bit about gaming and how long I may be staying. I mentioned I was trying to find new work since I'm unhappy with my job now. Retail is not for everyone, and I recommend it to no one. Big businesses are crooked and you see it moreso when you're on the inside. I don't want to be a part of that.

Other than that I feel like I may have been somewhat sleep deprived, I had to make sure my oldest niece was on her laptop for school. She's always been good about that, I almost think my mom should trust her, but she's still young. I guess she doesn't want to take that chance that she'll skip school if left unattended. Work has always been a bit unfair to my sister, she never gets the chance to make sure the kids are in school, too busy having to support the family financially.

Which leaves me with a thought. So, it's harder for anyone to make a decent living, and I've heard arguments to the effect that even if we did try to raise the minimum wage, it would also result in the price of goods going up, so if that IS true, then what's the best way of going about reducing poverty nationwide? I mean for Chrissake the term "working poor" is in our vocabulary and that should tell us that if we needed a work like that something's wrong with us. Perhaps this warrants some research. I haven't heard of a solid plan of reducing poverty in the US. It's something worth thinking about.

Well that's it for this post. I'm out of steam and don't really have much to contribute. Otherwise, it seems I've forgotten about some of the dreams I had. It wouldn't do me justice to talk about them here because talking about them wouldn't do them justice, plus it's not something I want public anyway...
