I should have been asleep hours ago. I just can’t do it. For some reason I close my eyes and nothing happens. I’ve tried everything from counting sheep to over stimulating myself with video games. Nothing seems to be working tonight. Worse yet, I need to be awake in 4 ...

I haven’t blogged in a while. Just haven’t had thoughts to share lately. Right now this is sort of a forced session since I’m sitting in my SUV as my dad is at a doctor’s appointment. I’ve forgotten my phone so I’m sitting here typing away on the MAC while ...

I’m holding off on the last thoughts about the MAC for a week or two. Right now I’ve made it into my primary instant message and blogging machine. It has a spot on my desk right next to my giant monitor, and I use it to instant message on while ...

So I’m at the end of my third week of MAC ownership and I can say for sure that it hasn’t (yet) changed my life. I’ve been able to debunk a lot of MAC myths, in the process, but I don’t know if that’s a good or bad thing. So ...

So it gets here. Unfortunately, it got here on day where I was in the middle of being throttled down for 24 hours by my ISP for violating their absurd rule on “fair use.” Hughesnet knows it can do whatever it wants so it sets outrageous rules when it comes ...

I’ve had a MAC Book Pro in my life for about a week now. A friend came into some money and was kind enough to lend me enough money to buy a laptop. It was mutually decided that the one condition for said purchase would be that said laptop would ...

The other day I had a strange feeling that I’d probably be reinstalling vista in the near future. Not that I WANTED to do that, but I had this feeling. It had been loading slowly lately and there was something nagging me about my current setup. Today, well, today blam. ...

So I have an hour and a half until I'm working again. I've had a pretty light week, well light meaning that I am not doing any over time, so I'm only doing 72 hours or so instead of the 80 I did last week. This means I have had ...

I'm sitting here not quite awake. I had to work at the store Thanksgiving, costing me a higher rate of pay for a scheduled shift on my online job. I wasn't happy. I was even less happy that I ended up working a hell of a lot of overtime for ...

I'm in hour 73 of a 75 hour F-TH work week. I'm getting 5 hours of overtime at a higher pay rate (I think anyway) so that's good, the trouble is that I'm incredibly tired and even though I'm off at 11pm, I have to be back online to work ...

I'm having one of those mornings. I slept in by 10 minutes because I didn't feel like getting out of bed. After dragging myself out of bed I went out into the living room and noticed the new AC was off. I promptly turned it back on and cursed my ...

So I'm catching up with my blog. I realize that I haven't written in quite sometime. I wish I could say I've been busy, but I haven't. Life's gone by at a regular pace but there hasn't been much to fill my days. I tried a multivitamin the other week. ...
