How did it happen? I will always remember that day very well‚ as clear and as vivid as if it happened yesterday. It was very stressful and upsetting. It was the day that I lost my job. Welcome to the dark realm of my existence‚ otherwise known as my personal memoir. I was previously an announcer for a game show called To Tell The Truth. The show‚ not the phrase. It was a perfectly good day on September 11‚ 2000. I just finished a good 30 minute show on the air. I get paid six digit numbers for shouting

“Yes!” I shout. I just woke up from hibernation‚ which can only mean one thing: Groundhog’s Day! I grin from ear to ear at the thought of finally seeing my shadow. I can hardly contain my excitement as I munch and crunch on my flower and bark salad. My father always told me that I‚ Punxsutawney Phil‚ will be honored by tens of thousands of people on this special day‚ but he never said that it would come so quickly! I slowly close my eyes and imagine the moment I’d been waiting for. A crowd will

Sept. 23‚ 1957: They finally returned today. All of the members of the LR9 made an appearance at school‚ or at least tried to. You weren’t around to see it‚ but the LR9 did not have the most exhilarating day. Maybe I should say half day. They didn’t stay very long‚ I believe they left at about noon.

There is a fossil area on the corner of the beach‚ and massive flat rocks with animals engraved into its grayness‚ you will see scaly orange fish with only sockets and no eyes laying on these rocks with fly’s hovering over them in circles‚ as if they are guarding the dead corpses of the fish.
