New year, new me

I've been recently unemployed, so I decided to get back into the whole "blogging" thing. my last post was on Wednesday, January 20, 2010, which in about 5 days, will be a whole year ago! so much has happened since then, so lets start where we left off...
Regarding the little accident with dumbass, I ended up getting about $600 from the insurance company. A trip to the junkyard, and $50 later, I have a new bumper (which, by the way, was green) . Hack the old one off, throw it away, put on the new one, problem solved.
In February of 2010, exactly one week from my birthday, I traded my car in for a red 1997 Ford Ranger. I got $400 worth for my trade-in (shitty car), by the way, the brakes were grinding at this point, and took out a $3000 loan. because I was a week from being 18, I had my mom sign for the truck. My new (to me) Ranger came with a matching topper, 2.3L 4cyl engine, 2wd. overall a nice truck.
since I got my truck, I've turned 18, and graduated. The house I helped build looks nice, you can learn about it by clicking this Link.
After I graduated, I got my own apartment. It sure is nice to have a place of my own.
I quit my job at the old folks home in October, to work for a guy doing home repair stuff. This didn't work out so well, so now I'm unemployed.
There will be many more posts in the days to come, so if anyone is out there reading this, stay tuned. good night, and good luck!
