looks like i won't be having much of a christmas this year, i finally got approved for social security insurance but i have to wait until february for my payment. since we're getting some rain and snow my stepdad's lawn business will be slow, especially since only a few of his customers need their yard cleaned of leaves. i'm supposed to be getting backpayments for the ssi since i was eligible back in 2015 but never got any phone calls or mail about getting confirmed.

Dang dude, glad you got approved though. Sucks it'll be next year.

yeah, just gotta scrounge up what we can for a while. i'm hoping my stepdad gets his disability insurance at least by the middle of january. if not, he'll have to work while dealing with his back. it's fine now, but he could end up getting back pains before the whole month is over.

EDIT: turns out i'm actually getting my first payment in january, there's a catch however....

since i previously worked while i was staying in north dakota around $200 will be taken out of it, so i have just enough to pay the bills. buuuut i'm supposed to be getting a bigger payment in february, so the belated christmas shopping will happen then.

i went into the social security offices back in october and was hoping to get the insurance at least a month after, because the guy i was talking to said they had all the necessary info and paperwork like a week after i went in but they kept delaying my case :/ i was still kinda making good money with my stepdad cutting yards at the time so i was hoping i'd get a nintendo switch, so i've been having a copy of super mario odyssey gathering dust on my shelf since then.

You don't have to give expensive gifts. The past few years I've given mostly small, simple things like mugs and chocolates to my friends and family.

The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

I just looked at the TV listings and it says they're showing the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie on Nickelodeon. The thing is, it's actually the 2014 film.

This has been happening a lot, everytime the title of the 90s film shows up on the listings.

i guess clothes could suffice, even though they all have plenty already.

My girlfriend is evil, she teased my gifts by having them wrapped and taking a picture of them.
