New articles coming soon to my blog
Yes, after all these months, I will once again be posting to carcamper.info. Took time to see how well returning to life in a home would go after nearly year on the street. I have that perspective now and some changes I’m going through, so it’s time to post. See you soon, I hope. Http://carcamper.info.

Car Problems
I continue to have car problems, you can read more about it at http://carcamper.info. What it turns out to be is a broken timing belt. The cost of repair: $430.00 give or take a few bucks. How much money do I have? $24.38. Time to begin slashing my wrists, I have no idea what I will do, without a car, and with non-working legs, I’m dead.

So long and thanks for nothing, San Diego
Finally left San Diego, no more of this nasty place for me. Sorry, I’m not the kind of person to try to find something nice to say about a place or thing that has nothing nice going for it. Nor the type who will say nothing if they have nothing nice to say. To the devil with that milquetoast-ish nonsense. San Diego stinks on ice. They have no compassion or feeling of good will of any kind to...
