I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should start out dead and get it out of the way. Then, you wake up in an old age home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy; go and collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch on your first day. You work 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You drink alcohol, you

As stated in the video, this is a vlog that is part of a project between me and @TommyPierucki.  He came up with the idea when we were discussing social media and what it really is.  I really like where this is heading and may make this a regular thing.  Comments are more than welcome!

So a few friends of mine are contributing to a blog called Voices of Arizona and it is a spectacular blog.  The writing is incredible and the topics really make you think.  It's kinda kickstarted me back into blogging regularly so I'm going to be forcing myself to blog more.  I think it helps me clear my mind and sometimes when random thoughts stray into my head, it doesn't hurt letting the world

Ok, so today was quite an eye opening experience. I went to the doctor this morning as a check-up for a visit to the ER this weekend. Doc gave me a B12 shot and renewed my scrips for Zoloft and Xanax. I've been having twitchy eyes a lot lately and initially I thought it was due to lack of sleep. Doc said maybe the B12 will help (it hasn't yet). She also told me I need to drink more water,

So just a quick post because I've got a couple things floating around my brain. I'm definitely starting school this year. I'm not gonna let 2010 pass me by without getting the ball rolling on that.That being said, I need to get a job that will require less of me because I can't put most of me into my job and the remainder into school. I'm of the opinion that it's the other way around. I don't

Wow, I remember when it turned 1990. I'm flabbergasted at the fact that I have now been through 3 decade turnovers. 1980s-1990s, 1990s-2000s, 2000s-2010s. I'm getting old. I think that's why I refuse to move back to LA. I turn 30 this year, and I feel like if I go back now, I'm going back with my tail tucked between my legs, going back a failure. I can't do that. I came out here to turn

So this year, several little critters I call family went to sleep for the last time. April rat was put down earlier this year because of a tumor that was just eating away at her. A few months later, Cabby, the royal princess/pain of my ex's herd of guinea pigs passed. Soon after, I found out my family's cat Cookie, at 16 years, was put down and the next day my rat Janie had to be put down as

I just had a very weirdly zen drive home. I can't explain it but it was very surreal. Surreal in that looking back on it, I can't believe I felt so calm and so okay with the world around me. The Beatles were playing on the radio; it wasn't very loud. I wasn't thinking about my day at work that I had just ended, I wasn't thinking about what I was going to do when I got home. I was just in the

I've always heard that adding your work friends to your Facebook/Twitter/Social Network of choice was a bad idea. I'm kinda curious about that. Thanks to my friend Ryan, I know that I can modify Facebook to only show so much for certain people I can filter, so there's that. But I'm just wondering about myself and why I seem to have a hard time really accepting co-workers as friends. It wasn't

So I'm faced with a decision I need to reflect upon because it means a big change for my schedule.I was offered my perfect schedule: 2:30PM-11:00PM with Friday and Saturday off. So here are the Pros and Cons:Pros:It's my ideal schedule. I can work late and get a lot of work accomplished when it slows down in the evening.

I'm in LA spending time with my wonderful family and friends. On the drive, I kept thinking how nice it was going to be, being back in my old stomping grounds. I've been very homesick lately and was looking forward to coming home a great deal. Now I'm beginning to wonder if its just me missing the good old days and trying to grasp at my dwindling youth, or if its just the realization that this

These last couple of weeks that I've been away from work has given me a lot of time to think about what I want to do with my life. Lord knows I don't want to do customer service/tech support my whole life. I've been thinking about going back to school or maybe learning some web design. Point is, I need to do something that isn't tech support. I'd spoken with Anitza about some books on web

God is said to have given Man free will. The most key part of free will is the ability to hope. To hope for a better tomorrow. Now is the time when we need hope more than ever. The economy is failing, people are losing their jobs, their homes and their faith. Faith in the select few individuals they elected to represent them. This is what's been hardest on me. That I can see the pain people

Been going through a lot recently. I'm pretty effed financially right now so I've been looking for a new job. My current job is pretty much over and done with as Verizon, my previous employer, has recently purchased Alltel and I'm fairly certain they're shutting down our center since Verizon has one about 2 miles away. If they keep anyone, I'm sure I won't be one one of those lucky few as I'm

I'm going to start weighing in on the election here and there just because I don't really have anyone with whom to discuss politics so your comments are very welcome.Here's what I'm thinking. The GOP only has two viable candidates at this point: Romney and McCain. The Dems only have two viable candidates: Hillary and Obama. As for everyone else, well here's how I break everyone down:GOPHuckabee -

Well, here we are at the end of another year. 2007 didn't exactly pan out as I'd hoped but I think it's ended on a positive note. I've made peace with Kayla and we're still great friends, I've got a new job that I really like, but knowing what I know now, I will probably stay out of management. I don't think it's my thing. I know I'll be looking for a place to live much closer than where I am now

One of the more interesting days came this week in which two decisions I had to make were made without me really even putting much more thought than I'd realized.By now, most of you know that I've been tormented by the AT&T and Alltel demons. Well, those demons have been slain and I've decided to take the chance at Alltel. It's going to be better for me in the long run and that's where my focus

I think I'm at a crossroads in my life, though I may be making a mountain out of a molehill.So I've been perplexed by a decision I have to make within the next month. I've been offered a job working for Alltel Wireless. I'll make less than what I'm making now at AT&T but the job is stable, I'll be getting benefits, and there is advancement. AT&T is a contract gig. No bennies, no advancement (

Well, I'm almost completely moved out of my apartment. Just some minor clean up work left before I sever such a tie. That was my first apartment in AZ so it's a kind of an odd and sad feeling. Lots of memories in that apartment. Lots to look back on. On the plus, I'm getting situated at my house though the lack of any real TV sucks ass. The girls are moved in so my roommate's cat has been

In a conversation I had with my buddy Chris where he was implying that my moving out to Maricopa was akin to living out in the desert itself by saying I'm going to be "squatting over a piece of dessert [sic].""OH! You dope. DESERT only has one "S". Here I am imagining myself squatting over a piece of pie."

I'll just recap briefly what today consisted of.Woke up this morning and got ready for my interview at Alltel. They offered me the position at a buck and a half less than what I'm making now. But I'll actually have benefits and can accrue vacation time and such. I think it's a far better deal. After the interview, I had to go pee in a cup. Wee. Rather than go to work, I went to go get some

Tomorrow is going to be rather depressing for me so I've decided to go dark for the day. No chat programs or MySpace or LJ or anything of the sort. In fact, I think I'm just going to turn my computer off at the stroke of midnight. So thank you in advance to all of you who send me your well wishes. Don't think they go unappreciated. This is just one birthday that I'd really rather forget. You

I love my girls. They're batshit.I start my new job tomorrow. Everyone I know is wondering how I could work for the Evil Empire again. I tell them what I've been telling myself: It's not the old AT&T. The company I'll be working for used to be known as SBC which was one of the best companies to work for in the west. They just changed their name to AT&T. I'm excited, though. It'll be good to

Yeah, I decided to move my blog over to a site a little more professional than LJ. The whole SixApart thing was just getting too stupid so I decided to come over to Blogspot. I thought about going over to Typepad but that's owned by 6A, too, so screw that idea. Well, since this is something that a lot more people may view, let me give you a little info about me and why I chose "MajorXero".
