So I logged in to myspace today to check an inquiry for a potential client and I noticed a bulletin for some Mariah Carey cover art contest. I threw something together real quick (about 10 minutes). Didn’t want to spend a lot of time on it (I’m not getting paid for it). Don’t know if I will win and I don’t really care. All that really matters is that she is amazingly hot and I will be glad to make her babies if given the chance (LOL). Seriously, am I the only one that found her stunningly uber hot to death in that new touch my body video? Mariah, if you’re reading this - let’s make some children.

Sincerely yours… OSB

Today I was woken up at 6:25AM by a knock at my door from my brother telling me it was 6:30AM and well… I slept the 5 minutes off. Took a shower, felt tired as hell, brushed my teeth, and all that other good stuff. Since I’ve been carpooling (with my brother) for awhile now… I have to wake up earlier now. I miss those days where I woke up an hour later. Prior to leaving for work, I forgot to bring my Lotemax eyedrops for my eye inflammation (from my contact lenses) so I headed back inside but I couldn’t find it so I won’t be applying any eyedrops till tonight. Plus getting out of shape doesn’t help either. I actually weighed myself last night and I actually told myself “Holy sh*t, You’re a fat ass!” So the obvious thing to tell myself is to hit the gym right? Well, not really. Due to some personal issues for the past few months (let’s call it an ankle injury for now), My out-of-shape-ness has been getting out of control. Once my personal issue is over with, I’m hitting the gym again. And did I mention that I have a really painful ingrown toe nail?! After my “ankle injury” - I think I’m going to see the doctor to have it fixed (yikes! I’m going to have only half a nail left). It’s been like this for awhile, I just been withstanding the pain. Jesus, I just realized how many things are wrong in my life in that last paragraph… Not to mention the stuff that I left out.

But work wise, it’s been rather OK i guess… Work load is finally starting to ease up a bit. Thank god the spring break season is over. I’m starting to feel burnt out. I can’t remember the last time I even had a real vacation… I been with this company for over a year now. Last year, I took 1 week of vacation time and it was not for vacation purposes. Plus the job before that (8 months), I only took 1 day off. I’m seriously in dire need of a vacation. I just finished this google maps page for my company. It’s funny how it came about… my boss gave me 30 minutes to research the functionality and I ended up learning the API in that short amount of time. But the result was very satisfactory and alot of the head honchos at the company liked it. I learn things fairly quickly when I apply myself. I guess it’s my gift and my curse. And yesterday I sent out a newsletter email to 594,000+ subscribers and traffic to the company website tripled plus sales were up 50% over last year. Ah, how sweet does that sound. I remember last year, we had like low 400k subscribers. I guess I am pretty good at what I do. My job also requires a lot of research, I have so many webpages opened that I tend to run out of memory (2GB @ 800mhz) fairly quickly. Let’s see I have IE7 with 15 tabs opened and Firefox with 97 tabs opened. Not including all the other apps I have to use. Can we say MULTITASKER? Oh another thing, I sort of closed my myspace page last night. I’m not going into details so “no comment.”

I had about 3 meetings today. I found out that our information systems guy is leaving the company so we’re trying to make sure we’re ready for any kind of impact. So it’s been quite the busy day. And one of our CTO’s (Chief Technical Officer) had me help him write up (or update rather) some document on logging website metrics. It was very last minute and he wanted it done very quickly. I did it in 10 minutes. Not too shabby. Plus he gave me props in the email to everyone. Finally, recognition. But overall, it was a semi-exhausting day. Then I came home to watch the Celtics beat the Suns by a huge margin. Let’s bring home a NBA championship!

I’m going to get ready for bed, goodnight and godspeed. (whatever that means)

Cubicle rather. This is where I work. If I’m not home, I’m there. It took me 26 years to actually find something I like doing. I’ve been here for over a year now. People are nice. And my accomplishments are recognized. I’m sort of a big deal (LOL). Sometimes it gets stressful to the point where I want to leave, but I just end up treating it like a balancing act. Good vs. Bad.

Prior to this job, I use to work as an infosec admin at a financial establishment (we’ll call it Some Stupid Company for privacy purposes) under a micromanaging psychopathic boss (we can call her Dumb Cunt for privacy purposes) who has no clue about info security and enjoyed bossing people around. I actually had a confrontation with her once and told her how I felt about her but nothing changed. I don’t understand how those people can even work the positions that they hold. So I ended up leaving. After that, I realized that I will never work in a corporate environment ever again.

 All I leave you with is the following:

1. Understand self worth

2. Balance everything (Thanks Laneezy)

3. If all else fails, pick up a box of newports

P.S. They finally decided to upgrade my PC at work, I’m running a Quad-Core setup at work now. Hehe.

I hestitated a bit, but I think there’s no better way for me to introduce myself in my blog other than giving you readers some excerpts of my life. There’s plenty to write but I only given you part 1 of my life - I’ve updated the “About” section of my site where you can read part 1 of a soon to be complete “About Me.” I hope you enjoy the read as it is very personal and hopefully captivating to you.

After months and months of my hiatus and procrastination (I know… hard to imagine knowing how perfect I am), I finally got this site relaunched. But… THERE IS STILL MUCH WORK TO DO.
