The hardware store isn't bad. I know a lot of tools because I used to help my dad repair the house. It was always falling apart. And I was the oldest, so I got to hand him the tools. I miss him.

But yeah, hardware store. Not like there's a lot of places in town for me to work, being an ex-Victor and ex-soldier.

I didn't get anything for Katniss for her birthday. We went hunting. I know she's not really a material kind of person, but I wish I could do something. I'm not the most sentimental person. I'm not asking anyone to pick a present out for me, but she's been here longer in this world than I have. Is there anything she likes here that I wouldn't know about?

	And I'm just now realizing there's even a delete button. So, I double the suck at technology. Who'da thunk it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Johanna does that, I don't want to copy her. I could go into construction, I know there's a company in town. But the hardware store is pretty easy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah! Means you either go all out or give up. Which... sounds a lot harsher than the expression itself. It's not meant to be harsh? ~~God this is so hard still~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm not really doing either of those things. Katniss and I work low paying jobs. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
