Not So Hot
I know today was supposed to be like 110 degrees out in San Bernardino today, and maybe it got up to that. But I was running around all day in the heat going from classroom to classroom and I have to say that I don’t think it was to bad outside toady. Maybe it was because it was a dry heat. Whatever the case may be. If all 100+ degree days can be like today I would be fine with that.
San Manuel Casino
Won $10 tonight which was enough to cover dinner. Thanks San Manuel!
Flat Bike Tire Fix
Never had to fix a flat before. I try cheating my way out of having to fix it by pumping that fix a flat stuff into it but it didn’t work as I had hoped. The fix a flat stuff only lasted for one ride and then the air would slowly leak out and by the time I wanted to go for another ride I would have to pump it up again. The tire stuff I used was for car tires so that may have been the...

Relaxing
That is the only word that can describe this past weekend. Lots of time at home doing nothing but watching TV, playing some PS3 and browsing the web. Went on a bike ride tonight which was fun. Now going to undo all that exercise effort by eating a milk chocolate with caramel filling square.
Jacob's Birthday Bash
Had a great night last night with everyone at San Manuel Casino. Started the night out eating seafood buffet and was able to let our waitress know that it was Jacob’s birthday with out him knowing. They brought out a special cake with a little candle on it and sang a little happy birthday song that included a line about hoping you win some money.
After dinner we headed out to the casino...
What A Mess
Second day finished at the new school and all I can say is what a mess. There is stuff all over this new school site. Different computer parts in different places. The old tech didn’t really keep everything in one place and therefore there isn’t any organization to speak of.
So the plan is to first get everything in one place. One thing nice about this new site is that I got my own...

Last Day Of Freedom
And so it has all come to today. My last day of freedom before returning to the daily grind. All I have to say is, It is about time.

WatchWent on a bike ride tonight and came across this flipped Jeep Wrangler in Rancho Cucamonga. Shortly after they flipped it back over I noticed that my front tire had gotten a hole in it so we high tailed it back but sadly didn’t make it all the way. Only made it from Kenyon to Haven before so much air had escaped that it was unridable. Guess I need a new tire. At least it was on the front...
Loan Consolidation Followup
Success! I received an email this afternoon stating that my new pin was ready to use and so I went to the Direct Consolidation Loan site and retrieved my application. For some reason it lost all my loan information so I had to reenter all 11 loans again, but once I finished that I was in business. Read through the promissory note and electronically signed and now I just have to mail in two forms...
Bad News
Got home today and discovered our beta fish had passed. Ouhaha, you will be missed.
Applying For Loan Consolidation
So, student loans suck, well owing money sucks, but student loans are a pain. I mean the whole system is a little screwed up if you think about it. We are told to go to school to get a degree which is supposed to help us earn more money once we get a job. But if we owe a mountain of debt that extra money we are making is just going to paying off those loans. I suppose that down the road we will...
