It’s snowing pretty nasty outside today – nevertheless its a decent day so far. American Idol is on tonight – that’ll be fun to watch. But I have damn laundry to do – I’m gonna put it off a little while longer. Can’t wait to get out of here – counting the hours. 3 to… Continue reading Snow…

Handing in your resignation….
It’s always a scary thing handing in a resignation letter- there really is no turning back after that point – today I did that for the second time in a years time – the first was in January, when I left my previous employer to work for ATT as a contractor in Managed Internet Services.… Continue reading Handing in your resignation….
Superbowl… at church…
For the maybe 10th time for me, I’m at my church’s Superbowl party. Always fun – we watch it on a 14 foot screen – as Borat would say, “Very nicee…” Life is good, life is fun… The superbowl has begun…
The plasma is home…
And it’s really frickin big! It overpowers the living room now, but that’s ok – I don’t mind. The picture is alright – it has a little weird jaggities every now and then – but hey I only paid $460 for the thing. I played a little XBOX 360 last night on it; and it… Continue reading The plasma is home…
A plasma for pickup on ebay..
Last Saturday, I went on ebay and did a quick search for a 50 inch plasma. Earlier in the day, my cousin was saying I should “step it up” from my 26″ CRT HDTV that I currently have. So I placed a bid of $460 ona 50″ Akai PDP5016H for $460 with a couple minutes… Continue reading A plasma for pickup on ebay..
It’s ok to be sick…
All last week, I rang in the new year with a nasty nose infection-like thing. While home all week, away from work (and pay, since I am a contracted employee), I actually enjoyed being home, and resting. Sleep is the greatest – seriously – I love when you first wake up and all the troubles… Continue reading It’s ok to be sick…

DISH up close to 20% today
Echostar got a big bump today, on news that ATT will buy them. Good for them, because recently their new subscriber % hit a low…. Good idea for ATT, as their U-verse product has been very slowly developing in the west. It’s interesting to note that DirecTV went up today along with them – approx… Continue reading DISH up close to 20% today
The Stock Market
I have long wanted to get some good stocks on the stock market… but what seperates bad from good? All these crazy terms (earnings per share) cylical, and all that – It’s all new to me…. Time will tell how I invest…
Caffeine.
I used to be a caffeine drinker – sodas, coffee, etc. but then after having sleeping problems, I quit the stuff. Earlier yesterday (today being 3:35 in the morning), I had half a mountain dew and a regular diet pepsi, after not having caffeine for a very long time, and I am still up! What… Continue reading Caffeine.
