I just got another "I don't know what to get you this year" comment. And I realized I totally botched the amazon wishlist idea this year. I guess I can only say I don't mind getting presents late. =)

PS And you better not mind either! =0
I've been.. distant lately.
From this blog anyway.
Been working a lot, two jobs. Knothe, a mens aparrel company (mostly mens sleepware) where I manage about 30 users and computers, and do mundane (yet occatinally interesting) tasks with the production database. And Wizard Computing, where I go to clients offices after work or on saturday to fix things, or install phone systems, or servers.
Servers..
I'm playing a lot with Microsoft's 2003 Small B…
Well the raid still isn't working...
I'm kinda bumbed out about it.
Btw I don't think I've mentioned I've got a 9-5 job now.
ME <--- sold out
I've been there 3 months and I think it's working out well. It's easy work but it's constant and it pays well. And as of the other day it's paying a little weller. (Shush, it's a word today.) A paycheck isn't quite rent yet, and the state of nj decided to screw me over again, and I just paid for all this ha…
I'd like to thank all the people who helped move yesterday. Those who didn't have to ;-)
Cassie, Jason, Nick, Bill, Sarah, and John, you guys rock.
As for my flatmates, you guys rock too. I think this is going to work out well for us. =)
Just no more condensed Green Tea, OK Mike? It's not worth it, can't be good for you man. (It's not being good for me.)
Also Thanks to Em, and Marcel for my bed (worth every dollar, though it does squeak a bit).
J…
I'm moving this weekend.
Buy my shoes!
Thank you =)

I wish I had enough photos of today to make a comic. I went to the beach and the waves were fantastic. Like amazingly large and destructive. And by destructive I mean they kicked my ass. For example, I remember talking to Nick and Jason (who happened to be about 5 - 10 feet in front of me) and then a wave came, and Nick and Jason were about 10 feet above me. Now this wouldn't be a very good example if the wave didn't then crash on top of me and d…
I'm going to Montauk saturday, meet me there =)
So as of right now lovely actress Amanda Congdon is off Rocket Boom, rocketboom.com currently has a messages stating she is moving to follow her dreams in LA, which would be nice, but it's a lie. Her dreams in LA included Rocket Boom.
She sums everything up on her own blog.
And, as it turns out, I cannot move to LA because our plan was for me to be engaged in, and compensated for, work on Rocketboom there. Since you will no longer allow that, I …
The title is from the famous song.
Me on the other hand, I just payed off all my bills and now have no money.
I should be working on that.
Especially if I want to move in august.
But today I couldn't.. I didn't go to work, I haven't even spoken with them yet because I don't know what to say. They know me, and my problems, but they've just about had it. I'll call them today if I get the balls... or tomorrow. I'm much better at apologizing when I n…
My good friend Andrew works with my other good friend Brian at Lazer Park in time square. You might have remembered the place as having "the largest indoor arena on the east coast". It was a lot of fun, but now after many years, it's closing. And I guess Andrew and Brian are lucky, as they get to be the ones to help dismantle it. Better the people who loved the place put it down then people who are strangers to it's futuristic armageddon motif.
L…
So I forgot to mention that I'm in Seattle, well around it anyway. I left Thursday and I'll be back Tuesday the 30th.
Anyone who knows me knows I've had a lot of problems sleeping lately.
And after staying up over 24 hours, I went to sleep around 10:30pm only to wake up around 4 this morning. Not no sleep, but not a lot of sleep. I was exhausted! And now yet again I'm awake while the rest of America sleeps, or at least pretends to.
You see lately, I've been sleeping during the day mostly, it's kind of sucked.
So I have to stay awake today, all day, I'm even work…
If you run a store, I highly suggest emulating this sign.
Credits go to my Mom for sending me the pic.
I spent yesterday walking around manhattan with my friend Brian looking for (among other things) size 14 shoes. Manhattan doesn't carry them. In fact most places don't carry size 14 shoes, they carry up to size 13. I'm a 12 personally, so when I goto a store looking for shoes I look for a shoe I like and try to find it in my size, Brian has to look for his size and then see if it's a shoe he likes. It's crazy.
So we went to the internet instead. …
