Year: 2009

I’m going through a rough patch in my life right now. Hell, who am I kidding? I’ve been going through a rough patch for a while now. And I haven’t been handling it very well … at least not mentally/emotionally. I tend to bottle things up rather than talk about them. I’ve been doing it … Continue Reading

While I wait to hear back from the job opportunity I interviewed for last week and the job opportunity I applied for yesterday, I need a project to keep me occupied. I only really have one idea for what that project should be. I’ve already done something similar with this idea, but I thought I … Continue Reading

As I type this, I’m sitting out on my balcony enjoying the beautiful 75° weather. That’s the official temp anyways. It’s actually 81° on my balcony … and the sun hasn’t hit the thermometer yet. It’s kinda hard to see my laptop screen … darn glossy screens, but I had to get it in order … Continue Reading

On February 12, 2009, more than 100 cities around the world will be hosting Twestivals, bringing together Twitter communities for … Continue Reading

I’ve had my iPod Touch for a month now. I absolutely love. I am soooo glad I bought it. My other mp3 player is only 2GB while my new one is 8GB, so I’ve got a LOT more music on it. But the main reason I wanted the iPod Touch was the wifi capability. I … Continue Reading

I did something tonite that I haven’t done since the end of September of last year. I transferred money into my 2 savings accounts ($200 into each). It felt soooo good. Right now I’m getting paid just slightly more than I did at my last job. So I should be able to go back on … Continue Reading

I am a person who keeps track of various things in spreadsheets. I have spreadsheets for my budget, gas log, fitness log, and paycheck information to name a few. I blame attribute it to my college adviser. He did practically everything in a spreadsheet. He even figured out the heat constant of his house in … Continue Reading
