Rollin' in the dough

Ok, title sounds better than it seems, but actually it's pretty good. I've been using Good Search instead of Google and been making one cent per search for my chorus. Yesterday, when I started it, I made 60 cents! I could easily make a few hundred bucks a year for us!

I took Mozart to get microchipped. I had to go to the cat sanctuary. It was out in the boonies in El Dorado Hills. It was a little depressing for some reason. Maybe because a lot of the cats were not in the best of shape. Poor kittehs! The process was quick, the vet just inserted the microchip the size of a grain of rice between the shoulder blades with a needle. I saw a poor kitteh in the hospital who was bleeding and put under, he was in a fight. The vet kept saying he forgot how beautiful Mozart was and he is actually a buff instead of orange tabby. Pretty close to me.

Another sunny day. We need more rain! But I do enjoy the warmth of the sun. I think I am ready for spring and the time change. I like it dark in the morning and it's getting too light. I prefer lighter at night time. You just feel like you can do more when it's light out, like you have more time even though it's the same amount of time in every day.

Making the most of it

So, work is the usual. Not too stimulating, but I have been making the most of it.

For my chorus, we are using Good Search to earn money. I put it as my homepage and today have begun the searching challenge for myself. I plan on making about a dollar per day. They give you one cent per search. You also get money for shopping online through them on Good Shop. I will do that when I need to shop, but hopefully not anytime soon (saving money). I have earned 30 cents so far today! Talk about making the best of your time! I do searches day long, so I think this is a great way for me to feel accomplished and helping my chorus. I have a strategy for the first series of searches. I am on Information Please website and going down the A-Z list of biographies and doing a search on each one. I thought about, how could I keep doing searches so quickly. I thought, use the encyclopedia method! I will do other subjects after the bios run dry. There is so much to search and I don't have to think!

Last night's class was good. After work, I picked up a foot long at Subway. The lady asked a lot of personal info, like "is that a real diamond ring?" "are you a student?" "are you married?" "how old are you?". I answered politely. Then I saw her report back to her male co-worker. I was like, ok? I guess that guy had his eye on me. I'm just going to stick with that story. This is why I like not living in Davis anymore. People always assume I'm a student. I parked at my old neighborhood in Davis and went on a walk (been feeling gross). It felt good to get outside. Then went to class. I learned a lot and had a good time talking to a classmate.

Today, Mozart is getting micro chipped. Hopefully it won't take long. I don't know the process. Hey, I'll search about that!!!

If you would like to join my in my crazy searching, go to goodsearch.com and pick your charity of choice. Might as well!
