There's no place like home.

But that's because I have a job and apartment already established here. If it wasn't for that, all personal entaglements aside, then I guess there are a lot of places like home. Take New Orleans for example, or Iraq. Maybe a slight exaggeration, but come on! I have to take a 15 block detour just so I can get to Shop n Save (which is ONE block over). This is ridiculous. Know what else is ridiculous? Corporate has decided that our Best Buy location needs to be open by Saturday. Ummm, we have a slight* water damage/roof leak situation that needs to be addressed. Also the winds managed to shift one of our walls to the point that an i-beam moved 3 inches and the wall cracked. But hey, we're going to be open on Saturday. They are going to have employees working 7 am - 10 pm until everything is fixed.

It was interesting being in San Diego and seeing the entrance to your apartment complex on the 7 o'clock news. So it wasn't exactly my entrance, but it was my turn off from the main road on to my street. My apartment is fine, I was a bit worried... Especially since I just bought a new TV. Anyone have any suggestion for Renter's Insurance in the Springfield area? I'm in the market.

Feel free to ask about Cali or Springfield or anything. I just decided to not try and tackle everything at once because it was just too much. Also I'm sick, and that's not fun at all.

Fun Thing to Do #1:
Go to Blockbuster (or other video store) and replace all of the "staff recommendations" with low budget flicks and Porn.

* By slight, we had to get rid of all of our laptops on display, all but 5 of our desktops... They're talking about scraping like half of our CDs. By "slight" I mean "intensive."

I just like the fact that you talked about how Corporate wants you to do something. You sound like you're on The Office and that's awesome.

Hey Rob glad to see you are back. Hey at least you didn't miss everything and get to enjoy our Blizzard we are having today!

As for insurance...we've had State Farm since we got renter's insurance back in Bloomington-Normal. I really like them, we have everything through them (cars, home owners, etc).

We have State Farm as well. If you have them for car insurance too...you get a nice discount. Although I'm sure most companies are like that.

You came back from sunny California just in time to get snow! Aren't you a lucky guy!
