i have always been this way but especially since i have a new higher paying job i have gotten worse. i buy something new almost every day. when im bored i go buy something, when i feel lonely i go buy something, when i get off work there is usually SOMETHING that i need to pick up on my way home. its not usually expensive things but still, little things add up. i cant seem to get the money i make into savings or to pay off debt, i have 4 credit cards that together add up to about $7,000 ,almost all of that $7,000 was spent in the past two years on bills when i didn't have the money for them and paid them with credit cards. i don't know what to do , is there some kind of place you can go like alcoholics do haha? seriously though what do i do about this? i am no longer getting into MORE debt but i only pay minimum payments usually so im never going to be on top like this.
what do i do to make myself stop buying everything i want all the time?

When Velocity and Heat used to be on TV, they aren't the best shows but i remeber superstars who were developing and even some main superstars would show on these.

Velocity is now dead, and heat is online.
sad, if it wasn't we would have wrestling almost every day of the week.

Monday=Raw
Tuesday=ECW
Thursday=TNA
Friday=Smackdown
Saturday=Velocity
Sunday=Heat

i miss them, do you?

Ok so my boyfriend just dumped me today. I am extremely upset and I've explained to him everything. He knows how i feel and all. There's just one thing he doesnt know yet.....Im carrying his child. I am trying to tell him but its always either a bad time or he doesnt answer his phone. But the only thing is that he was drunk when we had sex. And YES IT WAS PROTECTED SEX. But when i tell him, he wont believe me because he doesnt remember anything. What am I suppose to do? He needs to know..

Tell me if I'm crazy, but I swear that I've heard that it's better for your tires to be just a little under-inflated in the winter, because it provides more traction on ice and snow. Is this true?

Since I'm prior enlisted I had been to meps a while back.. For those of you who have recently been to meps, besides the Security form where it asks from age of 16 or 7yrs whichever comes first, have you tried marijuana? Did they ever ask again on any other forms or in person if you have EVER done drugs? I can't remember. All I remember is I had to go into a room and talk to someone breifly before I got finger printed.. I have no idea the questions they asked. Anyone remember? Same goes for BMT... do they ask you in there and use the word "EVER" ???

I have central AC and Heat. The unit is Rheem..model number is unknown at this moment. We turn it on, it warms up, reaches the desired temp, and kicks off. When the temp drops and it's time for the heater to kick back on, it blows only cold air so then we have to go and turn it off and then back on. After we do that, it will blow hot air again but only until it reaches the desired temp in the house and then we have to start all over again. I have heard a lot about thermocouplers but my husband went up there and said he didn't see one on the unit. So what could it be?? I am hoping it is something we can fix ourselves. Any help would be so much appreciated. Thanks!!

i'm 15 hes 18 and hes down from college. i simpley can't stand him, i hate his guts. ever since he went there hes been an asshole. before i get to it when he was 15 he used to drink sometimes and i threaten to tell my mom but i was young then, and stupid and immature. i smoke pot and he doesn't like that. don't tell me its bad or w.e. i heard it all before. it doesn't matter what were talking about, he'll make the conversation swing that way and he'll argue about it with me or tell me off about. (f*ck off you stoner). he says its bad, i know i heard it all before, and he said he'd never do it, then guess what? just a couple days ago, HE DID. he pisses me off so much. i can't trust him with anything because he'll use it against me. i thought we would be ok since i forgave his gf, she hit me a couple times and i forgave her, for him. this is how he repays me. i know this one girl amber who my mom and dad know, and her parents. shes smokes weed too. i have more in the details.

I have lived with my man for five years and i dont want to sound arrogant but all my freinds say that they cant believe I have going out with him as I am pretty (their words) while he looks like an ageing accountant. I think that is harsh and I love him to pieces and didn't get together with him for looks. He is the sweetest man ever. We are trying for a baby but he is having erection problems. Tonight we went to a party where a guy was trying it on with me and tried to put his hand down my skirt. I threw a drink over him and my boyfreind threw a punch at him but he ended up getting beaten up quite badly (broken cheekbone and jaw). He looks a right mess and is at his lowest as he doesnt feel like a real man as (in his words) he cant **** me or stick up for me. He wants me to leave but I love him. How do I get his self esteem back up

A new law that penalizes employers who hire illegal immigrants goes into effect Tuesday. But the impact can already be seen in many ways here in the Valley.

The Mexican Consulate located in downtown Phoenix is swamped.

Undocumented immigrants are going there to get Mexican birth certificates for their U.S. born children that will ease the way for the kids to be enrolled in school, and will assure there are no problems should the family be deported.

Some say they are fearful without the certificate because Child Protective Services could take custody of their children.

Deputy Counsul Alfonso Navarro-Bernachi says applications for Mexican birth certificates are up 100 percent since last year.

People are also filling out forms claiming their personal property so it will not be subject to an import tax when they cross the border.

Some employers say they've been hit hard.

Placido Castellanos, owner of Casa de Mariache in Phoenix, says because he’s lost some employees and a good portion of their customer base, he may have to sell.

"We're only making about $200 a day," he said. "With our mortgage at several thousand dollars a month, we just can't make it."
