The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

This morning my fear was confirmed. The third kitten is no longer with us. It was nowhere to be seen. Maybe Itsy Bitsy isn't ready for parenthood. Maybe Itsy Bitsy prefers being the baby to actually taking care of a baby. Maybe I shouldn't care so much, as I am not financially stable enough to care for even more pets. Regardless, my time with the kittens was short but memorable.

I left the house at 8:45, and arrived at the office at 9:30. I worked the entire time I was there, and left at 3pm. And now I don't have to worry about anything work-related until Thursday. It is confirmed that this time away from work is only temporary. It just depends on me how long that is. If my ability improves to the standard the owner wants, it could be next week that I get more time in again.

I was going to rant about how I know what I am weak at in this paragraph, but I will save it for another time. I admit that I am not the most humble person, but I am not up for more bragging tonight. So let's move on.

My plans for tomorrow are to play lots and lots and pretend that I am once again a teenager who can spend the entire day playing video games.

I deposited my check and got a slight shock when I received my receipt. I have already saved up more than $500USD. Of course, this amount is wrong. The truth is, the actual amount is about $350USD less. It just shows that the companies I send checks to haven't received them yet.

That, and my uncle hasn't come by to pick up the check I have for him. If I am going to have any more power than I already have here, I am going to have to buy this house from under my Dad's nose. The deal is, whoever pays for the house gets the house. If I buy it, I control it. Really, it's a win-win. I either get the house now and enjoy Dad finally accepting his defeat, or I get the house when he dies. Sooner sounds more fun.

I am not really as cold and heartless as I seem. Just when I am given reason to be. I am not easily provoked, and that is something I am proud of. Years of taking my frustration out on video games has made me that way.

Well, that's all for now. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
