    Yeah. Perhaps he did something to deserve it and doesn't want to show his face because of the embarrassment.

    I set a much higher goal for myself earlier this week. I'm amazed that I've exceeded my goal each day. Maybe it's just mind games with myself, but whatever - it's working. :dunno:

    I upped my goal a couple of weeks ago, but I still can't find the motivation to actually do more than the bare minimum. Maybe I shouldn't have flat doubled it and went in smaller increments.

    I think I have the kids college expenses coming up in August gnawing at me - that's a great motivator too.

    Warning: Mini-rants ahead! Skip if you wish.

    1. If your hit is "invitation only" why the don't you mention that in the DESCRIPTION, so I'm not wasting my time clicking on you when I could be actually working.

    2. Don't you just love it when someone posts another batch a day or two after their first batch where they want you to do the same tasks (or even a bigger tasks) at LOWER the pay?

    That'll do it. My main expense is just my dog, so almost all my mturk/UHRS money goes into saving up for a proper PC setup. When I was a kid, I never thought having a dog would be this expensive, though.

    And this is why I got mad at my brother when he wanted to get a cat. He can barely afford to pay rent as it is lol.

    After learning so much about caring for animals over the past few years(I didn't even ask for a dog, btw, he was just kind of dumped on me), I'm just really baffled at people who seem to be unable to do the teensiest bit of research before getting a pet, especially since resources are so easily available nowadays.

    This same argument also goes for some people who have kids, so yeah, I guess.

    Thankfully my daughters school expenses are covered (well right now she only has 125 due in august)..I need to make so much for utilities(everything else I paid off when I semi-retired) and my trip though. (I am blessed with a semi-cheap kid, I just had to make her stop buying for everyone and stop buying so much theater makeup-her only 2 vices).
