Where does the time go?
Feb 28th
Geeze, where does the time go? I cannot believe it has been almost a month already since I have posted. Time really flies when you’re having fun..
So I moved stores at work.. That was a good thing, and at the same time a hard thing. I can’t go into the details; but I can say that I will deeply miss my team in The Colony, they were awesome, and definately all Superstars! Thanks to their determined and hard work, we were able to do amazing things with that store.
My new team is also awesome! We have some areas to improve, but I really think we can overcome those things and really rock this store too! There will definately be some challenges, but I honestly love challenges. (Keeps me from ever having time to get “bored”)
Switching to “iPhone talk” now.. I am still absolutely adoring my iPhone! I find myself playing with it almost all the time. (Except at work – ask anyone: I will rarely take it out and use it at all at work — it just feels rude!) I used to dislike iTunes, but find myself liking it now and downloading Music/Videos/Apps more than I should.. LOL. And I am still finding apps than I find useful – though it does seem harder to find “quality” apps on the iPhone App Store because you have to constantly sift through all of the stupid ones that for some reason like to show up first. :p
Anyway, that is really all for now – I need to get myself out and be productive! I’ve already waited longer than I should today.. it’s past noon and all the crazy church-goers are out now. 
*worried look*
TTFN,

Time for some updates about ME! :)
Dec 13th
Well it’s been a while since I have posted any “personal” updates. Let’s give this one another shot.
On November 23rd, I finally got promoted to the position I had been trying for so long to reach. I’m now the Store Manager of a ‘Rock the Block’ BLOCKBUSTER Media store. (A goal I had been trying to reach for at least 5 years!) And coincidentally enough, my store is located in the city where I grew up. Also, while I’m blabbing about my store – I will even say that my store looks better than most BLOCKBUSTER stores–even the new ones! The previous Store Manager at my store ran a very organized, clean and trained staff and store. (I love her! Our management techniques are so similar that the transition was very smooth) So needless to say; that will occupy a lot of my time..
Sliding in second for taking my time is my Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network, IRC4Fun. I’m still actively using it and maintaining it. There have been a few improvements and wins for the network lately; such as new features, a Win in the Spam Fight for our network, a Win in the Drone Fight for our network, etc. I have updated Defender (our network protection/abuse prevention service) to handle many more situations and battles for our staff/network. I will continue to update Defender to combat network annoyances as I just fucking LOVE it. I am still a nerd at heart – I love to code.
I hope everyone likes the updates to this site! I’m still making tweaks here and there and fixing things that were broken during the update. If you see any bugs/etc that linger for a while (as if I am just not noticing them) please contact me. You can also contact me if you have any ideas for the site (or just want to). :)
