Who is TL Jackson???


Some of you all are wondering probably, Who is this person? Well, so am I! This is what I can tell you. As you can tell from this lovely photo of me, I'm a 34 year old single guy from Kentucky. I'm 5'4" with hazel eyes, and a shaved head. I am a technologic diabetic. I graduated from Northern Kentucky University (NKU) in 2002 with my Bachelor degree in Organizational Studies (BOS), and then again in 2006 with my Masters of Science in Technology (MST). Over the years, I thought I have been going in a direction that I thought was right for me but in April 2008, I found out that I was wrong. Since April '08, a lot of things have happened to me that have caused me to be in my current situation which is living out of my car and jobless. As I'm currently looking for a job, if you might know of a job lead for me, please e-mail me. But back to my situation. In April '08, I was admitted to the hospital with a cellulitis infection in my stomach. I stayed in the hospital for a week. While in the hospital, my roommate and his gf took off with $500 that he owed me in rent. Also, I ended up losing the place. Plus, while there, I was diagnosed with diabeties. So, my life has changed in a dramatic way. It's been since April that I thought about blogging as a way to keep myself sane. I like letting people know what's going on with me. That's what this blog is going to be about mostly. Did I mention that I was single also? Anyway, if you have any comments, suggestions, and etc, please feel free to e-mail me or whatever to me.

Inauguration Day - Part I...



Wondering what's on TL's mind today? Probably the same thing as all these people in the photo that is in Washington, DC getting ready to witness history in the making. But, yet, to me it's just another day in the life of TL. All I have been hearing is nothing but inauguration stuff. When do people say enough is enough? Yes, I understand the historic part of this day with Obama being the first African-American President but from this day until the end of his terms, one thing is going to be the same. He is going to be like all the other Presidents but hopefully better. No matter what color his skin is he is still the President of the United States! He is going to do the same things other Presidents do in past. So, throughout the day, I'm going to possibly try and post updates about this day with the next update probably being after the ceremony and the inauguration. But who right now is excited that this day finally have came? Who really cares? Everybody has their opinion. So, let me hear them!
