Random ADHD Thoughts...

Vampires
I am really getting tired of all of these Vampire related shows and movies. I mean in this day and age, how realistic is it to be a vampire? You can't just go around sucking on anyone's neck these days, otherwise you will be spending your days at the free clinic instead of napping...


Verizon FIOS
Have had Verizon FIOS for a little over 24 hours now and have mixed emotions about leaving Brighthouse. On one hand I love the channel lineup and all of the options that I have from Sports, to movies, etc, plus the super fast internet. On the other had, the installation took too damn long, customer service isn't 24/7 like Brighthouse, and managing/setting up the account online was a major pain in the ass. So if I had to grade it thus far I'd give it a B-, mainly due to customer service issues.


Jurgen Klinnsmann
ESPN reported late last night that Jurgen Klinsmann has spoken to Sunil Gulati and about possibly taking over for Bob Bradley. Anyone that knows me and reads this blog knows I have been wanting this move for awhile, as the former World Cup Winner with Germany is the best man to come in and take over. Let's hope this change happens...


Deals Plus
If this website were crack, I'd be in rehab by now. I keep finding stuff on here that I need and all for a great prices. If you haven't heard about it, I suggest you give it a try, but first make sure you have someone hide your credit card.


Manchester United
Another three points today for my Red Devils, and to top off a great victory, we got goals all from guys that needed to get on the scoresheet. Rooney from the penalty spot, Nani with a great run at goal and finish, and my boy Berbatov with a trademark side volley beauty! I know we are only three weeks into the season, but at this pace Paul Scholes is going to run away with Player of the Year honors. Another masterclass performance in the center of the park today.



Strippers
Well I don't really have anything to say about strippers... just thought I would throw my readers a curve ball with this one...

2010 Thus Far...

Okay so once again I have been slacking and this is my first post in months. Figured it was a good time to check my progress on some of those goals that I had set going into the new year. Not doing bad as far as reaching them, but not doing great either as you can see:
  1. Still no progress on this girlfriend thing obviously, and I am not optimistic at all.
  2. No promotion yet, but I am more optimistic about this than I ever was about getting a girlfriend.
  3. No luck on the MBA Program as of yet, as the UT thing fell through.
  4. First one! Did finally get the car about two weeks ago, and loving every second I am in the car.
  5. After being in the workforce for going on 6 years now, I am finally taking a full weeks worth of vacation. Hard to believe huh...
  6. Doing okay with this one, as I have done a few speaking engagements to a couple of groups this year, minus the big one at UT a few months back. We have Popeye's Chicken to thank for ruling me out of that one and putting me in the hospital.
  7. I knew this one was a long shot when I type it in, as far as taking a trip out of the country goes. Who knows though, as I got a good amount of vacation time to use and we still got a few months till the end of the year.
  8. Not quite an expert in my field yet, but definitely at a good place with it as I feel we are doing some good things at work and we'll just wait and see what happens.
  9. Haha, why the hell did I even put learning salsa on the list. Wish I had the time and energy though as it would be good to work up that sweat.
  10. Still dodging 30! At least for a few more months...
Well that is the update for now, and as I said, its not going great, but its not going bad either so just keep plugging away as I'd like to be at 70% by the end of the year with these goals. 

Hopefully we won't have to wait another 6 months or so for my next post, keep checking me out here to get the latest!
