I am a pheonix, rising from the ashes...

Practice what you preach...
Funny how moodiness can cause you to make some rash decisions...and to think I was saying look before you leap only a few days ago... So I was totally moody yesterday and I didn't want to do anything anymore, I didn't work at all yesterday, which was bad because now I'm behind on finishing some editing, I didn't want to blog anymore, just because I was feeling so blah. I guess things on my mind just peaked and I fell into the whole, "Fuck it" attitude, but that's not one of my basic tenets of living...and I refuse to let my moods, the bad ones, get the better of me. I let my emotions really grip me by the balls the other day, and I was wallowing...but good friends are always there, trying to make you see the positive. So my friends really have helped me through difficult times...even when they didn't think they did. So I will continue, noting down thoughts as they flow from my head into my computer...so I can kill time. But it's probably not gonna appear as often, since I may not even be working here much longer...no more all day computer access as far as playing around goes...I'd be much busier, cuz I'd have a job that occupied most of my time w/ other duties...

Shhhh...no talking
During my morning stroll around the 3rd floor at work today, I noticed how eerily quiet it is...so many people have been laid off in the past couple months or so that it's just too quiet now. I mean in some quadrants of the office there are only like 3 or 4 people. It's kinda sad. I liked it so much more when the hustle and bustle of a lot of people was around... Now I feel like I'm in the damn library. Man, I never went to the library in college, why would I want to be in one now?

Changing of the guard
That title doesn't really have to do with anything, other than the fact that it sounded real cool. Plus it kinda relates... but anyway, I'm rambling. Sometime later today, I have will officially accept a position at SVF Flow Controls, Inc. located in Santa Fe Springs, California. After a few negotiations, I am very pleased with the proposed offer and I am ready to take on this new challenge in my life.

Lightbulbs
While talking on the phone w/ a friend of mine on the way back from lunch we got into an interesting conversation...interesting to me at least. Anyway, we were talking about how wires, chords and stuff always get so tangled up and knotted when you don't even do anything to them. Specifically pertaining to the hands-free device. Put the wire-like thing in your pocket, purse, what have you, and you get a wire-super-pretzel when you need to take it out. So we decided we would invent(if it has not already been) a hands-free device that comes FROM your phone and has a retractable chord. That way, you wouldn't even have to worry about taking it off, and then untangling it and all that. Plus, in a short while, all people using cellular phones will have to use a hands-free device while driving and there might as well be one on every phone then....so hopefully we have not already been beaten to the punch.

Thumbs up to...
-re-negotiations
-passing swallow tests and being able to eat solid foods again

Thumbs down to...
-Leaving a good work environment
-stomach aches
