Well today we launched our Blackberry products which was awesome. The folks at RIM are amazing. They made us feel like we were at home. I am glad I am with a company that is growing so fast. Sometimes I am frustrated with it all but in the end it is worth it.

On another note I am using the WordPress client on the iPod Touch. Not something I would use daily but sure is fun.

It’s something I don’t think I will ever understand. Yet, it has permeated my life multiple times. People seek to find a solution to their problems and look to ending their life. It is fruitless, it is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Even people who experience great trauma do not do so. Perhaps it is just how some people are but I know for a fact that I am tired of it infiltrating my life.

I have friends who have tried, one has succeeded. My aunt tried and succeeded, however they labeled that as accidental. I don’t believe so but whatever helps a person sleep at night right? Shay did this tonight, trying to over-dose on pills, cough syrup and other things. Why people do such things I shall never know but I do hope that she will pull through. Tomorrow I am going to give her a talking to. I love my friends and will fiercely keep them if I can.

It’s in me to do such things because of the life I lead. If I call you friend, expect the same depth of care and devotion.

Well the title says it all. Recently we downsized from a 6 bdrm to a 4 bdrm place. No sense in having all that extra space when it isn’t being occupied. My new room has a fireplace in it. Anyone want to come over for S’mores?

HSJ has gotten some more traffic since it’s inception. I’m glad it’s picking up. I’ve added a lot and put in some work so it’s good to see a return.

Work is work for now and I’ve had a few days off to relax. It’s been well wanted and needed. I am feeling much better than I was before.

Well, life has been crazy to say the least.

I busted my ass last month for sales and it paid off. Check plus commission came to two dollars shy of $1800. Not a bad check at all. I dropped $500 to my parents to help them with bills and such. Paid my own bills and I’ve got about $500 left. Good little nest egg I hope.

Romance wise has been interesting. This girl I’ve been speaking with for months now suddenly pulled a 180 on me. Why, I did not know. It’s sorted now. Hopefully we can start making progress forwards again.

There are things she has to deal with that make day to day living hard for her and I’m trying to help. I believe I can because I was until the setback. We’ll see how it goes but I have high hopes. If I am disappointed then so be it. A man controls his fate but only as much as God allows.

For now, I wish you well.

Due to My own error, having thought I did give credit to the author of the post that was here. I apparently did not. As per his comment below. If you’d like to read the original content please visit http://www.whatamanknows.com/how-to-command-respect/

I in no way meant to cause a violation of the original authors message as I found that it is very true of men today.

I know I haven’t posted in some time and shame on me. Work keeps me so busy and so I don’t get much time for myself. I should be more dilligent and I am not. Perhaps I can be in the future.

On a side note I got a new phone. Sony Ericsson W580i. Awesome phone really! Not bad for $188 and no contract extension. Bought it from a guy on the Anandtech forums I frequent.

Well. I had to buy new hosting. The old site was just not impressive. So hopefully everyones blogs will work properly. We’ll see in the next few days. As of late I’ve been focusing My energy on work and a girl who interests me muchly. I like her and she seems to suit Me well. We shall see.

I don’t get to post much lately with how work is going but I am here now and can do so. It’s funny to find myself at odds with some things. There is Kathryn who drives me insane a lot but yet I persist.

We disagree on a good bit and it makes me feel as if things won’t work. I get annoyed by her going and doing things every weekend. I think to myself, “self, don’t get pissed, even if you do not understand why she can travel 1,800 miles to visit people but not drive 4 hours to see you.” On one hand, perfectly logical argument. On the opposite hand, I don’t have a car to travel and perhaps that sounds bad but it’s a stepping stone in my life. I’ve made progress already and I can’t just grab someones car and go off with it.

I do a lot to take care of my family….and I do mean a lot. Usually if mom and dad need it I fork over my whole paycheck like I did last pay check. Dad and mom got speeding tickets because the speedometer is off by 13 mph on their station wagon. Even with a mechanics note total costs rolls out to about $1,500 between the two. I’m paying the taxes on the house as well. So like I said. I give a lot because family is important to me.

Theres plenty more to gripe about which I will, but for now I am doing fine. I work too much. See my wench very little which bothers me and now I’m off for food.

I wish you well,
Scott

Well I’ve a new laptop and it has Vista Home Premium on it. I didn’t give Vista the credit it deserved, that is for sure. It’s still a pain in the ass however. The UAC can be a pain when I know what I’m doing but I’ve fixed that issue so no worry there.

The laptop is nice, Compaq Presario C700. I dropped 2 GB Ram in here and all is swell. I run everything with no problem. Gotta love the Core2Duo too!
