At times I can have a lot of things going on. Some things I can forget about and some I wait and procrastinate and wait till the last minute. But last night despite the busy schedule I finally said forget it. I grabbed my iPhone and put some music into my ears and just sat back and relaxed. It was pretty nice. I really don’t do that enough I think.
The last couple of weeks have been really long. For starters my wife left on Thursday 11th to head up and help her mom take care of her dad during back surgery. I know that took a lot out of her. I think she is actually coming home today. I hope so, I miss her. We missed her birthday and our 8th Anniversary. I love you Leslie… We have had lots of soccer practices lately and in this heat it can wear you out.
A couple times I have tried to go out and do some clothes shopping, but wow I will be honest I hate it. Not to mention things are just so expensive. Maybe if I wouldn’t have bought the new iPhone it wouldn’t be so bad after all.
And finally, work is work after all. I’m trying to get mentally prepared for a few big projects that might be coming up in the next few weeks. Although I did want to start these back in March, it has taken this long to get what we needed configured on the hardware side and to get some good deals going. For those who know IT work, we are getting ready to switch over to VMware on a blade server. And I also have to get a new backup server prepped and ready to go and last but not least, learn server 2008 and exchange 2007 so we can migrate our existing email system.
See a lot going on huh? Not to mention that I seem to need about 1 hour a night to play WoW. I’m up to level 33 now. Still a long ways to go to hit 80 and be elite like the others… hehehe
It says it all really. Everyone where you turn there are more and more diet aids. They just stand out like there is no tomorrow. Top Diets, Super Pills, best diet pills, etc. They are in stores, commercials, TV, news papers. Wow just all over. You would think with all this there would some type of peer pressure. hehe. Oh well what can you do right.
It feels like the sun around here lately. Just more and more. Lately it’s been really hot here, and usually we don’t see this hot weather till mid july. They are forecasting a high of 102 tomorrow with a heat index of 105.. Yikes..! As I type this and its’s roughly 940pm, it’s still 92 out.!!! Just crazy. Why did I move here again? LOL…
Anyone else have something they see over and over again, or more and more…? I would like to hear about it..
So I decided to drop some cash Friday and buy the new iPhone. This is my first time owning one and so far I’m pretty impressed. Although I knew it would outshine my POS Windows Tilt phone. So I went with a 32gb iPhone 3G s..
Today I decided to check out the video function on the phone and I like it..
Here is a clip I took and uploaded to you tube right from the phone:
This is Mazzie our Rat Terrier..
I still have a lot to learn about the phone but I think it was the best phone buying decision ever..!!
Well minus the part of telling everyone on the planet your new number!
It’s Friday, that’s for sure. I’m thankful that it’s Friday. Looking back on this week, I cannot believe how the US men’s soccer team is playing lately. Some reason (I’m not sure how) they are still in the world cup qualifier. I guess it could be because some of the other teams are not very good. But when I was watching the Costa Rica game, wow we looked horrible. Now the Confederations Cup is moving forward and here we are sitting at 0-2. We lost to Italy 1-3 and of course Italy is the World Champions so at least we scored right? But what’s this….. Egypt beats Italy yesterday 1-0.. oh boy that makes us look really good. Also yesterday we lost to Brazil 0-3. So here we are sitting in Group B in last place with 0 points and a -5 goal differential.
Sunday we play against Egypt. I really hope these guys are resting or doing whatever they need to do to hopefully win something in this cup. Rest, take their top diet pills, swim, I don’t know. But they better figure it out. Or this will be an embarrassing Confederations cup and a more embarrassing World Cup next year.
I was talking with a friend/co-worker the other day about security systems, etc. It turned out to be a good and lengthy discussion about it. I guess what got us on the topic is all the work we have recently did getting out work place secure. In the last few months we have installed 20 some regular cameras around various places inside and out started to use these systems to record activity, etc. So we started talking about home systems and what there is to have at the home. And there is quite a bit of options. Of course there are the traditional cameras, like we just talked about. There are various alarm systems out these days, including, wireless alarms. And one can also get a really big and loud dog too. Or a combination of all of them. I also cannot forget the smoke detectors and carbon monoxide sensors. I think those are a must.
Last weekend my soccer team went to Abilene for a soccer tournament. This was the last time this team would be the same as we are moving to a younger division and saying goodbye to the older division, so we wanted to have a last fun time together.
We really didn’t do very well as far as scoring but 2 of the games we almost won and played good. Overall this last year was slow going and now that we have a few players off of the team, we are going to change up some things and really get competitive this year. The girls only have a couple weeks till tryouts and I hope we can pick up a few more players to round out the roster.
So today I was at the store running around picking out some cards for my wife’s upcoming birthday and to grab some lunch and I turn the corner and hit the aisle that contains the incontinence products. I’m sure I will need them one day I will require this aisle of products but not at the moment. So I just zipped on by while I was gathering up my goods.
Sometimes I don’t mind running around the store. Most of the times the lines are short which I really like. But to side track the other night it took forever which was not really appreciated, LOL…
I think I need some Mp3 players. I used to have one in my old Kia when I lived up in Seattle. It was so nice. I could just burn a CD of my favorite all time best songs in mp3 format and I could listen to it for hours. It was also nice to not have to switch back and forth between cd’s in my single cd player.
So what I would like to do is add one to my current car. Yes I know I have 6 CD changer but could you image the amount of songs if you had a 6 CD mp3 player.. Oh yeah!!!
That would just make my day. I guess I will have to price some out and save some money.
