Saving Christmas

The theme for every annoying holiday movie that comes out on Christmas. This is annoying because Christmas has become so commercial that there is no way it is in danger of being lost.

Tonight, the story of the sewer rat who saved Christmas.

This ant is saving Christmas.

September Blues

This is the feeling of sadness that occurs when the summer is over and school is now in session. It is often difficult to focus on school since the weather is hot and summer was only recently. September blues are marked by inattentiveness, malaise, and longing. They are cured on October 1st when a person can think about Halloween and the weather is less like summer. Football season can make the September blues more bearable.

Juan: "It is 90 degrees and we are in school. I wish it was still summer!"

Alejandro: Don't worry, it's just the September blues. Come October 1st it will be all over."

Monk/Nun Budget

The kind of budgets people will come up for you when they want you to move to an expensive town. The name comes from the fact that the people are only factoring in basic expenses such as rent, utilities, and maybe a car payment. This assumes that you live like a monk or nun, because they seem to figure that you never go out and eat very little or not at all.

I was duped into moving to that fancy resort town by being shown a budget that made it look like I could afford to live there. This was a true monk/nun budget because as soon as my car broke down I was out of luck.

Eastern Montana

This is the area that is east of the divide, but this does not include Southwest Montana. Helena, the capital is in this region but the people are a hybrid between Southwest, Eastern, and Western Montana. People in Eastern. The futher east you go, the more like North Dakota it becomes, both in terms of terrain and people there being reminiscent of many Midwesterners. This area also include the Hi-Line, which forms most of the state's border with Canada.

Eastern Montana has a very small population.

Summer Resolution

A summer resolution is like a New Year's resolution but is made at the beginning of the summer. These usually involve leisure activities such as golfing, boating, camping, or fishing, but may also include tasks around the house such as landscaping, roofing, or gardening. Unlike New Year's resolutions, these often do not succeed due to a simple lack of enough time. People often realize they have not succeeded around the 4th of July.

My summer resolutions were to golf and fish more. It is now the 4th of July and I have not done either one yet!

Target

A store that prides itself as being "upscale" but it is a horrible company to work for. All of the employees have some stupid abbreviation for their title. There are three types of people who work in Target; the loyalists who have a bulls eye tattooed on their asses, the people who are biding their time in between jobs, and the most tragic, the broken-spirited people who do not have the will to look for another job and take the abuse. The GSTLs are the worst people as they are drunk on their own power. The store manager is usually a figurehead. This company is like something straight out of Dickens. On top of all of this, the stores are so inefficiently run that it is a mystery that it maintains corporate status.

Target should be avoided due to its treatment of employees.
