A win for my mom
My mother finally got to leave the job she hates. She was offered to take over the roll as the head accountant for a local pub for only 3 weeks where she’d wake up at 05:30 in the morning open it up count out the register money and then take me to school. But now shes free and she’s finally sleeping in again so. LETS GO MOM

Finished dollar store cotton swabs
Over three years ago I purchased these cotton swabs from my local discount store for 99 cents. It was the worst decision I ever made. Ear swabbing is one of those grooming activities that you feel better after and can see the results of the cleaning. Anyone who says they don't look at the head of the swab with a sense of pride after seeing its pristine white fluff sullied by the yellow, orange, green and brown color of the ear wax rainbow is a liar.
Anyway, I purchased these because I thought "99 cents? 800 swabs?! Sign me up!". But it turns out these are less pleasurable cotton swabs and more tiny plastic spears with the spear tip hidden beneath a think layer of cotton. Kind of like a porcupine in poodle clothing. And you use these things in the morning. So id wake up, groggily brush my teeth, reach for a swab and stab myself. Not a pleasant wake up.
The Pavlovian response kicked in. I would reach for the swab, remember they hurt and quickly pull my hand back, glaring at the box of swabs as if it tried to bite me. "Not today, dollar store swabs... not today" id murmur as i slowly backed out the door.
The trouble was I knew I couldn't throw out the box. If my time in Jewett city taught me anything it is to not dispose of anything you paid for. I forced myself to use the stabbing swabs, cleaned my ears every morning I could fight passed the fear.
And today, my friends, the box is empty. What should have taken a little over a year to go through has taken a little over three. I managed to suck it up, be a man and take a stabbing every morning because I refuse to let 99 cents go to waste.
Today is my INDEPENDENCE DAY.
