So again I am writing another two day blog because my internet decided to be a little homosexual from 6:00 p.m. yesterday to about 2:00 p.m. today and I was not happy. Most people can't fathom almost a full day with out internet which is good because that long with internet is a horrible, terrifying, appalling, and horrible(did I say horrible, yea I did) thing for anyone to have to experience. The only reason I am still here blogging to you today was sheer determination to survive with out the wonders of this beautiful thing we call the internet. And now that it is back I am back in Social Website and Blog Heaven. So as I get started on my last couple of days I might have a hard time recollecting the past events of my life due to the unbearable withdrawals I went through yesterday and today, so please be mindful and patient.
THE EVENTS OF SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 29, 2008
I will continue right where I left off with me watching some T.V. and going to bed. Too bad that never happened because I ended up leaving my house at around 2:00 in the morning to make my way over to Eric's house to meet up with him and Jeremy. Once I got there they informed me they were getting ready to go to sleep so that we could wake up tomorrow and go T.V. window shopping with Eric. Again too bad that didn't happen, we ended up not getting to sleep until around 8:00 a.m. even with alarms set for 10 we all didn't get up until 1:30 p.m. As we were figuring out what we were going to do for the rest of the day, Publix called and asked if Eric could work at 4:00(and this was his day off) and like an idiot he said yea so now we really had to get going so that we could finish what we had planned before 4. So our first stop was a Best Buy to look at the T.V.s they had and to see if there was one that Eric liked and was still in his price range(talk about Mission Impossible LOL) anyway the mission was a failure like Jeremy and I thought it would be. So after that we headed to Sears at the Edison Mall to take a look at what they had in the way of price efficient T.V.s after about ten minutes we actually found a good T.V. for a good price after we talked Eric into agreeing with us we then headed to the Gamestop outside of Edison to much disapproval from Jeremy(he didnt want to run into the D.M. of Gamestop) anyway it turned out to be a pretty fun tripped because one of the coolest managers of the district was working. X we call him was there and we just chatted for awhile killing time until we realized that Eric had to be at work soon so departed from Gamestop and took Jeremy home. After we had arrived back at Eric's I took my leave and headed home to do nothing except browse the pages of Myspace, Digg and Hulu. When I was waiting for Heroes and Dancing With The Stars(I only watch for the hot girls in short ass dresses with big asses(:) to come on I decided to watch a little Family Guy on Hulu. Then is when it happened, in the middle of the episode it completely stopped buffering and I looked down to see if the modem was connected and I saw the dreaded blinking dot(which is almost as terrifying as the red ring of death almost...) I tried restarting the modem, repairing the connection, I even tried completely unhooking everything and hooking it all back together, but to no avail. I decided just to go to sleep since there was nothing I could do now.
THE EVENTS OF MONDAY SEPTEMBER 30, 2008
I awoke to my mother as she was about to leave at 11:30. As I got up I optimistically walked over to the computer to see if time had healed my internet dilemma and to my horrific sight again all I saw was that stupid blinking dot. It stared at me as if taunting me and laughing at me. So I tried again all that I could to get revenge on that stupid little dot, and again to no use. So I called Comcast to see if it was something on there on that was fucked up and the lady told me that it was probably due to problems with a splitter in the house, as she said this I remember rearranging my room and taking a splitter from the family room to use a connector to form a long enough cable to reach the new position of my T.V. but I suddenly realized that the cable in the living room had ceased to work. So I put the splitter back where it was connected and the cable came back on so I thought that was the end of the story. It turns out that the I put it back was the day that all channels from 100 and up no longer worked. So after the lady told me it was a splitter problem I hung up with her and went over to the connection to switch the cables around and to my delight I looked over to the modem and noticed the most beautiful sight I saw the entire day... Three Solid Dots!!! as I exclaimed out loud "HAHA little blinking I have won the WAR!!" (well I didnt really say that but I definitely felt like that on the inside) so I finally got back online after 20 hours of complete HELL to find out that I had to catch up on 10 pages of Digg and all my other daily things I surf. After catching up I decided to catch up with some T.V. so I went to Hulu to watch the latest episode of Heroes. So other than that madness the only other thing I had to look forward to was House at 8 and Fringe at 9 YAY!!!! they both were terrific as usual. I love that House has found a new friend in the form of a private investigator who has a crush on Cuddy. And Fringe was as headscratchingly strange as previous episodes but now there is a creepy bald guy named "The Observer" who just so happens to be at every incident concerning the "Pattern", I am interested how this will unfold for Olivia and the rest of the team. So after the interesting conversion with Chris and writing this Blog I am ready for bed because tomorrow is a "New Beginning" of sorts.
So Good Night and have a pleasant tomorrow... and
Peace Out!

Buy One Blog Get One Free!
So before I get started there are a few things I need to address concerning friends and the future of my life.
First of all, Chris CALM DOWN we know you are the only true blogger in (The circle of friends) you have been doing this straight for over two months and have over 65 posts. Jeremy and I only started a week ago give us a break. Besides I am not gonna skip weeks I wont even skip more than a two days so don't worry.
Secondly, Jeremy since I have a job specifically at a restaurant I can now use that as an excuse to stay here Thanksgiving week instead of going up to Michigan with my family (which is hard to do because it's Michigan yet it's easy because it's my family) anyway that means I will be here for Black Friday with you guys with lots of money for a new laptop (YAY!!) as well as a few other things (like a 360, external hard drive, and anything else I can get real cheap). I was also thinking to myself "wow I will be here all by my lonesome... wait I will invite Eric and Jeremy over and we can drink and be merry on Thanksgiving night before we go to Best Buy to wait outside for 6-7 hours." So let me know what you think.
Which brings me to my last point before I dive into the last two days of my very optimistic life. As I stated up in my previous paragraph someone finally decided to hire my broke ass LOL. In Fridays post I talked about the interview and how well I thought it went, well it turns out it went better than I ever could have imagined cause not even 30 hours went by when I got the call asking if I was still interested. So now with this new development in the story that is MASSive O's life I finally have something to be genuinely happy about. Cause now I will have money for gas so I can start doing whatever I want, going where ever I want with no hesitation or restraint. (not to mention pay Jeremy and Eric back for all the McDonald's in the past few months :).) And with all that done lets get into probably the best weekend I've had in the past 5 months.
THE EVENTS OF SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 27, 2008
Saturday morning I barely woke up after going to bed at 4 a.m. and not sleeping very well which was another bad decision cause I had to be in Naples by 12 for yet another job interview. I slowly got out of bed around 10 after convincing my self that I REALLY need to get up and start getting ready to go to Pier 1. So I got up got a shower dewrinkled my "good" clothes and was out the door by 11:30. I got down to P1I at exactly 12 p.m. to find out that it would be a group interview *gulp*. I don't know, there is something so awkward about trying to beat someone for a job while they are sitting right next to you, to make it worse the two other people in the interview were pretty good looking females. As the interview got under way the managers explained that they were gonna ask a few questions and that we could answer whenever (you know fight it out to get the quickest and best answer out there first)and that we would be doing role playing (I HATE role playing just ask anyone that worked at Gamestop, I got a gun pulled on me LOL.) The first question, one of the girls got out a pretty complete answer and I was just left there shaking my head and not saying much. I thought to myself "shit I need to get some answers out there or they are just gonna dismiss me) so the next couple questions the girls kinda started the answer that was part true but I used my intelligence to come up with an answer that the girls would have never have thought about and I could tell that the manager was impressed with my well thought out answers. Last couple of questions were ones we all had to answer independently like what are your "Strengths" and your "Weaknesses" everyone hates answering those but those are the most crucial, whether you get the job or not usually rests on what you say. After the question portion of the interview it was now time for role playing (YAY) of course I was picked first with one of the girls to begin this awkward attempt of impressing the managers. I don't think I did THAT bad but I was asking questions which managers like and I think they knew that I was trying real hard, was understanding the idea of it and that I knew what I was talking about. After all this awkwardness we sat back down and they explained to us that they have this Pier 1 charge card that they try to sell to customers that get them 10% of their first purchase and 4 points for every dollar they spend at Pier 1 and after 2000 points they get a certificate. At that exact moment horrible flashbacks of Gamestop came flooding back to me and all the times we had to try and get fucking Subs!! Well at least I have experience selling stupid shit like that so I fully explained that experience to the managers which I think earned me some extra points in there books (I hope so). I can't believe that Gamestop might have actually helped me for once (who would have ever thought that would happen). After the interview was over I let the girls leave first and I continued to talk to the managers for a little bit about the role playing and some of the ridiculous scenarios that Seth used to pull on the game advisers at Gamestop they even got a laugh out of the one about the gun (again Gamestop's madness might have helped me, where am I the Twilight Zone?). So all in all I think I did the best out of the three there, but there was still another group of three to go through the torture later that day. I should know by Wednesday if I will have my second job of the week. After I got home there wasn't much to do except watch some college football as I turned a game on I scrolled through the guide and noticed that at 4 o'clock a House marathon was gonna start on USA so I quickly set a reminder. As I was waiting for 4 to roll around I was just watching a game when my phone rang and it was a number that I didn't recognize so I quickly picked it praying it was a possible employer, and thankfully it was, the restaurant I interviewed at not 24 hours ago. She asked if was still interested in working there, which was a stupid question as I quickly and excitedly said "Of Course" so she told me to come in on Wednesday to fill out some paper work and I assume to get my work clothes and my starting schedule. With my head reeling with excitement and disbelief I called my mother to tell her the good news. I at first played it off like I was calling for no particular reason and telling her I was going to need gas for Wednesday, she asked what for and I told her that I need to go fill out some papers at the restaurant, it took her a little bit before she realized that I had gotten the job. After I got off the phone it was close to 4 so I plumped back into the chair and turned on House which I watched until I switched over to the Michigan football game and noticed they had come back from a 19-0 deficit at the half and were now winning 20-19 with 10 minutes left on the clock so I stuck around to watch Michigan go on to beat #9 Wisconsin 27-25. The game just added to my excitement but after eating dinner I realized I was coming down for a crash so I decided to post an Interim Blog until I could resume where I left off the next day (which would be today). After the blog I headed straight for bed at around 10.
THE EVENTS OF SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 28, 2008
After a day of excitement and joy and a restful night I realized as I got up at 10 a.m. that today was gonna be a really uneventful day. The only things lined up for today was Sunday Football and a BBQ with 3 huge slabs of delicious ribs (YUMMMM!!!). So I got up and headed out to the kitchen where both my parents were making up a grocery list for the aforementioned event tonight. As I looked for something to eat for breakfast my parents and I were having a polite morning conversation when I thought to myself how much the family is better off without the evil presence of my sister (I mean every word of that!) anyway shortly after the conversation I jumped on the computer and started doing some surfing when I felt a disturbance in the force (sweet two sci-fi references in one blog, it may be easy for Chris but its a little tougher for the rest of us) anyway the disturbance was obviously my sister and her pet bitch Mike Rush. By the time they showed up my parents had already gone to Publix to pick up the essentials of a good BBQ. When they got back I helped unload the truck of all the groceries with no help from the evil She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named (HaHa that makes three, I guess Harry Potter is sci-fi whatever) So my dad started the ribs and cutting ingredients up for the numerous different salads he makes as well as apples for his award winning Apple Pie(not literal awards but I am sure he could win if he entered a pie making contest). After a few hours of football and the smell of cooking food it was finally time to eat (YAY) even better was the fact that You-Know-Who was absent at dinner due to her junior powder puff football practice. So after dinner and dessert (Apple Pie and Vanilla Ice Cream YUM!!) I got back on to do some more surfing and this huge Double Blog and now that it is over I guess I will go watch some T.V. until I go to sleep for the night. Unfortunately there is nothing planned for tomorrow but I think I might go get a Honey Cigar(Chris knows about Honey don't you LOL) cause I feel like celebrating the turn around in my life. So with that I am out Bitch.
And
Peace Out!

And I am sorry that I am not posting a full Blog
I Need Some Vicodin And A Lot Of Sleep
Unfortunately I am way to tired right now to write out a thoughtful opening paragraph so I apologize if that's what you like most about this Blog. Also it is very tough to think of a kick ass witty title everyday, I am just letting anyone who doesn't Blog know that as I go through my day am constantly thinking what would be an awesome title that would make people go "What I gotta read this". So with that I would like to get to my rather eventful day.
Last night i didn't get to sleep until around 4 o'clock which was a terrible idea especially after I got woken up at 6 to take out the fucking trash. As soon as that was done I crawled right back to bed and passed out again until I was woken up at 10 by mother who was leaving for a couple hours (also I got a text saying that there was a football game today at 2:30). When she exited my room I kinda just laid back down and set an alarm on my phone to make sure I was up with plenty of time to get ready for my interview later that day. So as I did that I started slipping back to sleep when I got a call from my mom telling me that I should mow the lawn before I go to my interview, (which was the last thing I wanted to right before an interview) but i just told her whatever and decided I should get out of bed. So I went out to my computer to do some surfing it took like 10 minutes before I decide to just go mow the front so that my mom couldn't get too mad at me. After I was done with that I started to get ready. I got a shower and changed into my "interview" clothes (a.k.a my Gamestop work clothes.) The interview was scheduled for 1:20 so I thought I could leave at around 1. During my waiting I called my cousin to ask if maybe he wanted to come and play some football(which he did). I told him to leave at 1:30 so that he would be at my house by the time I got back. So I got to my interview a little late because my total lack of navigating skills, I was only ten minutes late and the managers at the restaurant were very understanding. We sat down for like a ten minute interview and it seemed that they were wanting to hire me so after the int. they asked me to fill out an application. When I was finished I waited a couple minutes for them to finish up with someone else, as I gave her my application she said to me that and I quote "They are pretty certain that they will be calling me very soon" so I dont know if I am looking too much into it but my hopes are very high right now so again *fingers crossed*. So after that was through I had to rush home change and meet up with my cousin so that we could get up tp estero park for the game. When we first got there, there werent many people, 7 at most we thought that we wouldnt have enough. after waiting a good 15 minutes to see if anyone would show, we got bomvarded with people who wanted to play. It turned out to be a good game with enough people. When everyone got tired we all disbanded and went home. My cousin and I when we reached my house went to go play some basketball, a little game called H.O.R.S.E we ended playing that until we were so sore that we could continue no longer. When he finally left it was about 7 o'clock and I really didnt feel like being on the computer which is a shock but I was in too much pain. So I just slumped in a chair and waited till 9 when the presidential debate would get underway. By now I think it's pretty obvious to the people around me who I am and would be supporting in this debate. So far through out this election year my closet friends have always stood undecided but halfway throught the debate I got a text from Jeremy asking if I was watching. And I replied with an Of Course after a short conversation about what we thought about the candidates and there performance so far in the debate he sent me a text stating Obama 08 FTW. I couldnt be happier, I have just gathered another person on the side For Change.
Anyway I am Super Tired and need to go to bed so that I can get up tomorrow and be at an interview at 12 in naples at Pier 1 Imports. So again wish me luck and again
Peace Out!
OBAMA/BIDEN 08! FTW!!!!!
Last night i didn't get to sleep until around 4 o'clock which was a terrible idea especially after I got woken up at 6 to take out the fucking trash. As soon as that was done I crawled right back to bed and passed out again until I was woken up at 10 by mother who was leaving for a couple hours (also I got a text saying that there was a football game today at 2:30). When she exited my room I kinda just laid back down and set an alarm on my phone to make sure I was up with plenty of time to get ready for my interview later that day. So as I did that I started slipping back to sleep when I got a call from my mom telling me that I should mow the lawn before I go to my interview, (which was the last thing I wanted to right before an interview) but i just told her whatever and decided I should get out of bed. So I went out to my computer to do some surfing it took like 10 minutes before I decide to just go mow the front so that my mom couldn't get too mad at me. After I was done with that I started to get ready. I got a shower and changed into my "interview" clothes (a.k.a my Gamestop work clothes.) The interview was scheduled for 1:20 so I thought I could leave at around 1. During my waiting I called my cousin to ask if maybe he wanted to come and play some football(which he did). I told him to leave at 1:30 so that he would be at my house by the time I got back. So I got to my interview a little late because my total lack of navigating skills, I was only ten minutes late and the managers at the restaurant were very understanding. We sat down for like a ten minute interview and it seemed that they were wanting to hire me so after the int. they asked me to fill out an application. When I was finished I waited a couple minutes for them to finish up with someone else, as I gave her my application she said to me that and I quote "They are pretty certain that they will be calling me very soon" so I dont know if I am looking too much into it but my hopes are very high right now so again *fingers crossed*. So after that was through I had to rush home change and meet up with my cousin so that we could get up tp estero park for the game. When we first got there, there werent many people, 7 at most we thought that we wouldnt have enough. after waiting a good 15 minutes to see if anyone would show, we got bomvarded with people who wanted to play. It turned out to be a good game with enough people. When everyone got tired we all disbanded and went home. My cousin and I when we reached my house went to go play some basketball, a little game called H.O.R.S.E we ended playing that until we were so sore that we could continue no longer. When he finally left it was about 7 o'clock and I really didnt feel like being on the computer which is a shock but I was in too much pain. So I just slumped in a chair and waited till 9 when the presidential debate would get underway. By now I think it's pretty obvious to the people around me who I am and would be supporting in this debate. So far through out this election year my closet friends have always stood undecided but halfway throught the debate I got a text from Jeremy asking if I was watching. And I replied with an Of Course after a short conversation about what we thought about the candidates and there performance so far in the debate he sent me a text stating Obama 08 FTW. I couldnt be happier, I have just gathered another person on the side For Change.

The House That Boredom Built
Yesterday was my introduction to the wonders of Google Applications, I spent most of yesterday messing around with Picasa. So today I figured I would go check out what other exciting free products they have to fool around with. I have found the perfect app for me, some of you might know that I plan on going to college for Computer Aided Drafting. What you do is you draw up complete House,Building, and even Landscape designs or floor plans using a computer and the very expensive program AutoCAD. I have been kinda preparing for this since freshman year in high school because I took Drafting I,II, and III so i know my way around ACAD... well 2005's version anyway. But back to the app, it is called SketchUp and it enables you to create 3D models of pretty much anything you can imagine. As you can see in the post before this one I have been playing around with it and trying to figure it out. Thats pretty much how I wanted to open this so without further ado I give you My Day.
I will save you the explanation of how I was woken up because I seem to be developing a pattern and it's starting to get boring, so i'll start with what time I woke up it was around 11 when I decided to stumble out of bed and with my mom leaving for the day I knew that I would be alone to sit on the computer all day with no distruption. I started my day of computer goodness the way I always do, with an episode of House. After the 42 or something minutes of commercial free House I decided to go do my daily surfing. When I checked myspace I saw that Chris was excited about something because the title of the bulletin was "THANK GOD!!" and since he really doesnt believe in him I knew it must be good. In the bulletin it said that Myspace had finally updated their music portal which I have been waiting for. So as soon as I was done reading I went directly to make a playlist to flaunt on my Mysapce. The playlist consists of mostly AAR and a little bit of Every Avenue sprinkled in for some extra flavor LOL. At about the time I finished it was 2:00 which meant I only had about a half an hour until my peace and quiet was gone so I immediately started a new episode of House which so happened to be the season 3 finale which also means I have burned through all 4 seasons in like a month, I guess thats what happens when you have no life. Anyway when my sister came home she brought with her probably one of the most annoying of her friends, i'm not going to name her cause she doesnt deserve acknowledgement. So I decided to go outside and get my daily excercise, I was out there playing basketball for like 45 minutes and decided to come back inside so that I could start messing around with SketchUp. It's and amazing little program that is so simple to use, I had virtually no problem as I started to create a 3d model of a common looking house. As I was delightfully playing around it got me thinking about my old Drafting days and the program we used to use AutoCAD. I was wondering how could I get my hands on a program worth over $300 dollars. Then I asked myself WWHD (What Would Hays Do) and it was like a cliche lightbulb... I can just pirate it!!!! So I went scouring into the depths of PirateBay looking for my proverbial program gold. When alas I found one (AutoCAD 2009 which I dont think is out yet) with no viruses and easy instructions so I downloaded it right away. As soon as it was done I installed it and used a keygen to access the chest of Drafting goodness. As soon as I started poking around I quickly found myself confused and irritated that I couldnt remember or figure out how to setup an Architectural drawing. So I came up with a great plan, I emailed my old Drafting teacher and asked if he could send me a copy of the instructions we used to setup our drawings in the class. The only disheartening thing about this is that I have to wait til tomorrow before I can even get started on designing a house. So after I got over the heartbreak I realized it was 8:55 so i rushed to my room and turned on good ol' Supernatural. The episode was a great one like the one last week, and it seems like the show is gonna get very EPIC this season. Dont get me wrong all the seasons have been great ones but you dont get bigger than the Apocalypse and GOD V. LUCIFER. so I cant wait for the rest of this season to unfold.
Also one last thing tomorrow is a big day, a possibly life changing one. I have a job interview at a restaurant so wish me luck cause I need a job soon or I dont know what im going to do :(
And with that I'm off to see the wizard the wonder.... I mean off to bed so Good Night and pleasant dreams and again
Peace Out.

A Picture is Worth A Thousand Memories, A Video is Worth A Million
Yesterday I explained that the reason for this Blog was to move on with my life, so I find it extremely ironic that i spent a good chunk of my day reliving the past. I'm sure some people have heard this before but I find it to be quite true, "I Don't Know Where I'm Going But, I Sure Know Where I've Been". (It's actually from a Whitesnake song) So as I begin to move on I find it utterly important to take one last glance at the life I'm trying to leave behind so that I can go on and focus on the Present and Future goals that I want to achieve. As I sifted through digital memories and comedic videos of the past, so many great times flooded back to me, The days of Gamestop, Party City, back when we all had jobs, back when we would meet up at Jeremys for alcohol and games every other weekend, and were a whole unit of four and we had a band "The Alcoholics". I miss those days. Now my days are filled mostly with boredom and loneliness and the only social interaction I can get is either my sister and her boyfriend/Bitch Michael Rush or online with Jeremy,Eric,Chris,and my good friend House. So as i begin the description of my day I wanna lend you some words of wisdom. "Learn from the past, Hope for the future, and Live in the present".
Ok so today again was like most but instead of getting up at close to 11 I got up around 8 because my phone was dead and I left a note to inform my mom to wake me up before she left for the day. It took a couple trys and some yelling to finally wake me up because I couldnt get to sleep the night before. I was kinda waiting to read Chris' Blog which he posted around 3:30 a.m. so i didnt clock out until about 4 which isnt his fault I just figured I'm still up so i'll just wait for him to post it. I slowly got out of bed and ignored what my mother was trying to convey to me in my half awake state of mind. As soon as she left I went straight to my PC and booted up some Heroin... I mean House after the episode I figured that I needed a nap so headed back to bed where I layed there dipping in and out of sleep until about 1:30 p.m. At about that time I got a text message from my sister asking if I wanted to practice with them (they are doing powderpuff football, when i say them i mean My sis, her Bitch and the other people she calls her friends) anyway I decided what the hell I dont have any other plans today. So I got up and went to watch more House until they got to the house around 2:30 p.m. So we went around to the unused golf course behind my house. We spent like half an hour doing pretty much nothing when we all decided just to go back inside, where i resumed my episode of House. Then I had a short conversation with Chris where he critiqued this Blog which i greatly appreciated. He said that the piture looked really squashed together, which is a fair assessment considering I took a full size picture of me added the text in MS Paint and then just resized it to fit the header. That is when he told me about the Google app Picasa which started the whole immersion into the past. After messing around with it for awhile I decided to go through all of my pictures and videos and sort them out into a lot less folders as well as getting rid of dozens of pics and videos that were stealing away space on my hard drive. After that was completed I went back to surfing the net and House. And now its 2:30 a.m. and it is time for me to head to bed I just hope that i can get to sleep a little bit faster tonight, since im the last to post tonight it could be possible.
Well I guess this Good Night
oh and tomorrow Supernatural YAY!!!
Peace Out.

A Little Morning Update!
Well I was woken up at 8:00 and I'm still really tired so I'm gonna go take a nap right after I finish this episode of House.
I really wanted to say thanks to Jeremy and Chris for the comments and I am open for constructive criticism.
And Jeremy it really isn't that far it's closer than going to Gulf Coast Town Center.

Now Starts The Chronicling of My Life
As I start this Blog I would like to think of it as starting a new chapter in my life. And I know that I haven't moved away and I haven't started college, in fact nothing in my life has really changed at all since getting my diploma and graduating from Estero High School well except for being completely jobless and broke. I am hoping that all that will change soon and I believe this will help me in that conquest of happiness in such a miserable and cold world that is getting worse by the day. And I hope that for anybody who follows this or just reads it from time to time will get something out of it. Whether it be some understanding of something, a laugh or two, or maybe even some hope that helps you to Move Along.
In my very first post earlier to... err should i say yesterday. I stated that i would open every post with a quote from House. But after speaking to an experienced Blogger (Chris Hays) I have come to realize that it would be much too difficult. But I will start the beginning of my whole Blog experience with one "It's Never Lupus" HaHa only fans of the show would get that one. Actually I'm gonna quote a band because this what this Blog is about, and I know both of my followers can relate to this.
I think that this Blog will help me to finally Move Along from my old "High School Life" and help me start my "Real" life. So as i begin this journey of "Me" I only hope that this Blog will be as insightful and intelligent as the one that my good friend Christopher Hays posts everyday.
So where do i begin *has a movie style flashback* oh yes this morning was almost exactly like every other morning my mom swung open my door at the exact same time as my alarm was going off 10:00 on the dot what a coincidence. As i groggily turn over to shut off the alarm on my phone I hear my mother saying that she would be leaving for a little while and that i need to get up. But as soon as she closed the door i was right back to sleep. Then before i knew it again my door swung open to no surprise it was my motther asking if i was still sleeping which it was pretty obvious that I had been. So now I finally had to get up and as I glanced at my phone i realized that it was 11:30. Which is about a little bit above my average wake up time. The first thing i did after waking up and taking my morning piss was to get something to drink and eat and since it was already lunch time i passed on the Apple Jacks. So instead i just grabbed a Jello cup and some grapes (by the way, im trying to eat better because im a little on the heavy side but you probably got that from the picture and the nickname MASSive O) anyway after that delectible and light lunch I hopped on the computer to watch one my obessions (or addictions according to Chris) House M.D. . House is pretty much all I have been watching for the past month and a half except for primetime T.V. and the writer strike season of Supernatural but anyway after an episode of that I decided to go play some basketball for a little bit (this goes back to me trying to lose weigtht low carb intake and excercise hopefully it works) anyway this was only the first of like four different occasions of going out and shooting some hoops. In between those sessions of boredom/excerise i would watch more House. Also in the middle of this exciting and eventful day <--(Laced with Sarcasm) I got a pretty enjoyable call from one of the Managers at Pier 1 Imports down in Naples it seems that I have made it to Level 2 of applications well I guess they just want me to come down Saturday at 12:00 to talk to me but he asked me if i was still available to work so *Fingers Crossed* with this job possibility that makes two in two days cause on Friday I have an interview at this restaurant on Coconut Rd. If I'm extremely lucky which I havent been lately i will get both jobs but hell I'll settle for one. Anyway the clock hit 8:00 p.m. which only means one thing on Tuesday's... House is on Wooo!! (wow i might really be addicted, oh well its better than the illegal ones HaHa....*crickets* ok ill shut up) the episode was another great one and it was a great new puzzle for House to solve. I'm not gonna go into it cause its 1:30 and im tired but after that, was another show that I'm quite puzzled by but still very intrigued where it's gonna go and that show would be Fringe. Yea I know im a J.J. Abrams fanboy but you cant argue that he makes quality stuff. I mean come on one word "Cloverfield" well not everyone agrees on that one but whatever. This episode was just as puzzling and confusing as the previous ones. Seriously how can you release a gas that when mixes with air completely solidifies and traps everyone on the bus in an amber like substance, its just NOT POSSIBLE... wait its a T.V. show *facepalm* anyway that has pretty much my day so the only thing left to do is get a quick shower and head to bed...... So i guess i just end it like this ok whatever haha GoodNight and
Peace Out.

Peace Out.
