Keeping it brief

December 29, 2006

(Please ignore the change in font for this entry. As I explained before, I’m new to this whole wordpress thing-a-ma-jig. Although I have been doing pretty good so far.) 

I’m keeping this brief because it’s Friday at 12:11 pm and the office closed exactly 11 minutes ago.  I’m using my own time to post this entry despite the fact the last 2.5 days at work have been boring and dead.  I work on a team of 11 people and only 4 of us were in this week (and we were in and out anyways).

New Years Eve is quickly approaching and I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year. I will be heading to a friends house on New Years Eve for drinks, laughter and board games (because we’re geeks like that). I’m not planning on getting drunk, but spending the night with my friends means that more than likely we all will be slightly tipsy to say the least.

So when I’m back in the office on Wednesday I’ll take some time and post my new years resolutions on here for you all to see. I’m thinking about creating a page to keep track of the progress I make on my resolutions, and another page just for my weight loss journey.

Until then, here’s the best to you and yours. Whatever you do, I hope its safe and fun filled.

Some things really are that simple

December 28, 2006

I can’t say that I’ve ever been a big Nelly Furtado fan. I mean I like some of her older songs like Forca, but it’s always been the odd song here and there and generally never her big hits. I will have to say though, that everything I’ve heard from her Loose CD seems to be my type of music. I’ve only heard “Say It Right” once or twice, but I love it. The way I take the song is she’s talking about a relationship and how the other person could mean the world to her although they don’t mean anything right now.

I find this strange. Everywhere I turn lately there’s talk about relationships. People looking to find that perfect someone, looking to settle down, griping about how unfulfilling their love lives are, blah, blah, blah.

Wake up people! Enjoy your own company for once in your life. I’ve known a few people who just refuse to be alone and it’s rather pathetic. How can you expect to find happiness with someone else when you can’t find happiness with yourself?

I’ve had several women comment on how strong I am with my views on dating. It’s got nothing to do with strength. It’s all about self-respect and never accepting anything less than what you deserve. If you cheat, you’re gone. If you lie about something big, you’re gone. If you ever lay a finger on me out of anger (or out of violence), you’re dead. See? It’s really simple. What is it about these simple and fundamental ideals that women find so hard to believe?

Ugh. My brain hurts now. Let’s move on to something easy like napping.

Hello world!

December 27, 2006

In keeping with the laziness theme I have going today, I’m going to keep my default title for this first blog.

I thought it was about time I branch out on my own for my blog and took the lead from Steph and started a WordPress Blog. 

I’m still figuring out half the crap that I can do, so please be patient.  Feel free to leave me a comment.
