Hello Readers,
I'm back. It's amazing the things that change in just a few short weeks. As the new year dawned I found myself unexpectedly moving to a new place(which is awesome btw). I also am down a friend on the world's favorite social network. Sad but true I was recently "unfriended" by someone. When I logged onto facebook a couple of days ago I discovered I was no longer "friends" with a person I once felt was a pretty good friend. However, all I could really do upon making this discovery was laugh and say, "Are you(insert Fbomb) kidding me?" Who does that? Really? Is that what we have come to as a society? Sadly, yes. Can't we all just grow up and get along?
Stay Tuned and Take Care.

Week 2: jobless and bloated
Dearest Readers,
Today I find myself in a lull. I'm not so much bored as I am unmotivated. It is the start of a new work work and I have no where I am required to be. For some this would be viewed as a blessing, but for me I am finding that because I am no longer on a schedule it has become harder to stay focused. Don't get me wrong people I love the down time, but as of late I've spent far too much of my free time wasteful snacking and watching repeats of Law and Order: SVU. Today's to do lists: review updated job listings, do the breakfast dishes, say no to the remote which beckons me from my bedroom, and drink a gallon of water in hopes of feeling much less like a water buffalo.
Wish me luck.

Hello 2011!
Morning All,
On the heels of millions who vow to this new year to get fit, get rich or die tryin' I resolve to do neither one. I mean yes I have plans to get back to the gym and by all means eat less fast food opting for more healthy choices. And who doesn't want to make more money. The truth is this year I just want to work on being a better me. I want to take more time out for family and friends and less time sweating the small stuff. I am thankful to all those around me who helped me get through the chaotic hell that was 2010, not saying it was awful but I found that throughout most of it I was in survival mode. I didn't find much time to read a book unless it was required, and honestly I can barely recall any of the happenings or cliff hangers of some of my favorite shows except Dexter and Weeds. Those are two of best shows on TV. I didn't do much of anything that truly mattered, except finish school. I know that's awesome, but I don't remember hardly any of the past year which means I wasted the last 12 months not living life. Instead I became over run with things that in the end don't really matter for the most part. On the work front I haven't found anything yet, but there has been some life progress in recent hours. Within a few weeks I'm going to be moving into a new place that will put me in a better location to scout out prospects. This year I hope to do more traveling, and reconnect with people I haven't seen in a while. I also hope to spend a little more down time at home enjoying the simple things. Whatever it is you resolve to chance this year I wish you all the best, but remember to be realistic as most New Year's resolutions go belly up within the first 30 days even though they were forged with the best of intentions.
