Journal Entry 10.13.2019
It is 5:48 AM on Sunday October 13th, 2019. The moon hangs high above the trees partly obscured by a few passing clouds. The temperature is a cool 49 degrees.

Monday Night Football at Hooters
It is 3:42 AM and I didn’t get a good nights sleep due to the food and cola I drank at Hooters last night. The time has come for my friend Sadao to leave the USA.

Journal Entry – 2.11.2019
It is 2:11 PM on 2.11.19. The morning was hectic with three calls in a row but things have slowed a bit so I thought I’d try to get a journal entry in. These past two weeks have been tough with back to back colds mostly brought on by stress. Last week my boss’s boss…… Continue reading Journal Entry – 2.11.2019
