Yep...busy, busy

So nothing happened this week... lol.  The End

No, just playing.  The week was very busy for me, but good busy.  Truly not a whole lot happened.  We had our usual Sunday party and the expected sex that occurs (or so I hear).  Last few parties I've slept thru (or tried to).  I've been working Monday's lately, so up early & in bed somewhat early.  I hear the parties are growing, which is good. 

What's new... hmm.  Well, Zac has been working hard on the site, adding features, fixing existing stuff, improving the layout... everything.  Make sure to check it out and give him your thoughts. In addition to site changes, we've been seeing house changes/improvements.  Zac added a "green screen" in the chat room... seems like a cool feature, especially for what he wants to do.  Melem is trying to help Zac out, we're all pooling ideas, and adding to the house as well as the site.  Lot of potential for the house.

So what else?.... well, Monday - Thursday, Saturday & Sunday...I was busy at work.  Getting those hours, which is a good thing.  I've been progressing rather quickly (which is great).  I'm eager for the next step at work.  I'm still learning a lot, and will continue to do so for a long time.  My thing is, if you're not learning/growing, you're falling behind.  The best job anyone could have, is one where they learn from.  Sounds lame, I know... but I like challenges, like learning.  I also get bored easily, so if I'm not learning, it's time for something new. 

I did have one pain in the ass customer, not sure I can/should talk about it here... but let's just say - use your brain people, and don't get pissed when you're the one who f*cked up.... lol.  Yes, I expect to deal with unhappy people who don't always use their brain, but still.  Oh, and being foreign isn't an excuse for being a pompous ass!

Work was good though overall.  I'm starting to get used to working on my feet.  It'll still take time, but getting better.  Next up at work... more training.  I'll be training and testing more this week and next.  Attempting to work my way up, and hit CA.  For those not familiar with what I;m talking about, the headquarters are based in Cali.  So I finish what I can do here, then head to CA to finish training & certification.  Once that happens, I come back and become official (hopefully).  Just have to keep up with everything and work hard (as always).

Yeah, sorry for boring you with work details... lol.  But that's been most of my week.  I think most of my remaining time here, will be work more than anything.  I do have set days off now...I work 5 days a week with 2 days off (in a row).  The schedule is still getting worked out, but I'm as close to 40 hrs as possible.  No just have to start saving and looking for places.  It's almost been 4 months, so those other 2 will come and go fast.

There hasn't been much boy-time this week, but I'm still taking my clubbing nights and getting out (for my own sanity).  More and more I see cute boys and meeting people through friends (which is the best way).  Just have to network and go from there.

So next week?  Well, another busy week ahead at work.  It'll be full of training, testing, and the usual - work.  Again, if you guys have any ideas you'd like to see implemented here... let us know, email us.  Until then, see you guys in chat and have an awesome week.

Busy busy...

Well, it's been a busy week...like usual.  That's good though.  Keeps me out of trouble (kind of).  Again, this will be a somewhat shorter blog than usual.  Only so many ways to say "work."  

Everyday this past week (except Thursday), I was at work....and loving it.  I'm picking up hours, getting great experience, learning a lot...and just having fun.  I've been picking up so many hours, that my managers have to cut me back a little, as they don't want me working over 40 hours (understandably).  Either way, it's cool...I'm just happy to be there.  The whole environment is warm & welcoming.  Just fun in general.

So what else happened this week?  Well, like usual, I hit the club with Melem on Wednesday.  We hit Pulse, saw some cute boys and mingled.  Zac went along this time as well.  The cool part is, prior to Wednesday, I was talking with what turned out to be, a cool guy.  We talked a for a few days, then caught up with each other Wednesday night at Pulse.  We danced a little, talked, and ran into friends of his.  Normally this would be expected, but he's from NY.  So it was random to run into other people from NY...one of which went to school with a friend of mine who bar-tends here in Orlando.  Very small world.

So that night he came back with us.  He was in town with his dad (on work) and here enjoying a small getaway.  Turns out he was here for a week prior...sucks it took so long to see him.  Anyway, so he came back here...and needless to say, we had a great time.  Definitely enjoyed each other's time.  That night and the whole next day we chilled and talked.  Sucks that all the cool guys live so far.  He left yesterday (Saturday), headed back to NY.  Hopefully he'll make it back down soon.  If nothing else, I had an awesome few days and made a great friend.  One that I definitely intend to stay in contact with!

Okay, so enough of the fantasy time.  Let's see....hmmm.  Well, Seth & Angel are moving to Tampa.  No surprise there....I guessed that 2.5 weeks ago.  I'm happy for them... truly.  Some have asked how I'm going to deal with Seth being gone...my response - the same way I've been dealing with it the past 3 weeks - EASILY...lol.  Not a whole lot is going to change.  I'll see him just as much (or as little) as I did when he was here - only coming out from his room to smoke or chat, because he plays WOW all day.  I know he said he's bored here...nothing to do (which I think is funny) as he does the same exact thing there...but oh well.  

On the plus side - our internet will be much faster and I'll have less lube all over the bathroom...lol.  Seriously though, I am happy for him.  I know he's excited and that's rare to see in him...so I wish him & Angel the best.  I just wonder what is going to happen with him going to school? and work?  Time will tell.

Okay, now to the gripe(s).  Nothing too major...I'm trying to be positive - but these dogs are getting on my nerves lately.  Yeah, they bark..that's nothing new...but WOW, seems to be growing exponentially (meaning a lot).  We are dealing with it.  I just hope they calm down soon, I only have so much Excedrin. That's pretty much it, my only gripe.

So I'm having problems again with my phone.  This is the replacement of the replacement phone I got (for the one that fell in the hot-tub).  Hot-tub one was hosed, replacement had buttons coming off of it, and this one is dropping audio along with a few other problems.  Fortunately, Verizon is on top of it and swapping the phone out entirely with a totally different model.  For that, I'm really happy.  Let's hope the new phone works...we'll see.

So yeah, that was pretty much it this week.  All in all, it was awesome.  Busy but accomplished.  I met a really cool guy who I hope to stay in contact with, got my hours bumped up at work, got a phone swapped out (again), saw a movie, actually made it to the store to get food (however limited it may be)....but still haven't made it to Blockbuster to return my videos..lol.  So the goal for next week - get those movies back.  Hope everyone has a great week.

Thanks to that one awesome guy!!!

Looooong week....

Well, this wee started out like any other.  We had our usual after party Sunday evening (following PHouse).  We had a few familiar faces, some of which include Tyler, Aaron, Nick, and Paul.  Each of those four stayed Sunday evening...well into Monday afternoon.  The cool part was, I had another chance to cuddle with Tyler and enjoy his presence.  I'm not sure how to read him.  We had such a good evening (cuddling at least)...but then he acts like we never met.  Who knows...time will tell.  He's cute and someone I wouldn't mind getting to know much better....if he lets me in.

Monday was pretty much spent recuperating from Sunday night.  We didn't make it to bed until 7amish.  Even though we went to bed so late, we didn't sleep in as long as I had anticipated.  I took the four boys home, ran some errands, worked on converting a few movies...and did the usual chat.  I enjoyed my day off...as I had to get ready for a long week to come (at work).

Cool thing is (for those who don't pay attention)...I LOVE work.  I'm soooo happy there and look forward to being at work.  Tuesday thru Sunday - I've worked everyday...long shifts each day.  Tuesday thru Thursday, we were prepping and training for the release of the new iPhone.  For the most part, I also had late chat every night this past week...except my days off.  This absolutely made for a loooooong day everyday.  But that's to be expected.  Tuesday was no exception, pent the day at work...then came home for chat.

Wednesday was another fun but busy day at work.  I was off chat, so I was able to go out to Pulse with Melem.  Couple hot guys there like the previous weeks, and I did manage to get 2 numbers.  Downside is, I had my new phone replaced (again) and lost most of my contacts...including those 2 *new* numbers.  Kind of sucks, but hopefully I'll run into the guys again...and not look like a total idiot when I ask for their number again.

Thursday, I wasn't actually scheduled for work, but had to go in to complete training.  I took advantage of the day by sleeping in, but when I did go in, I ended up working.  All this in preparation for the next day.

FRIDAY...it's was finally here.  The new iPhone 3G was released by Apple and...just......wow.  It was a hit.  I started at 6am, left at 6:30 pm...others stayed till 3am.  We had hundreds of people lined up starting at 4:15 that morning.  It was cool to feel the energy and see everything go on.  Of course, it didn't help that AT&T's servers decided to dump at the peak of our sales day.  From 11am est to 3:30 pm...the activation server was down (crashed) from all the activations nationwide.  Needless to say, this made a lot of customers unhappy, but many did understand.  All in all, it was exciting...but looooong.

Saturday & Sunday were no different.  We did open a little later, but had lines forming before the doors even opened.  Just an amazing experience.  The cool part is, I'm picking up extra hours...which is what I need.  

This week should be an interesting one to come.  I'll be just as busy, working my butt off...and trying to save money.  We'll see how that goes.  I am in the second half of my contract, so I need to start looking at places.   Between this and work, I'll have my hands full.  I hope everyone has an awesome week.  Look for me in chat, and until then...enjoy.

Not too bad...

So all in all, it was a good week.  At least it ended well.  Like usual, it had its slow parts, but also had it's BUSY parts!!!  Less than a week till the new iPhone comes out...which means it'll be even busier.  So what happened this week??

Well, Sunday we had our usual after party following PHouse.  We had some familiar faces and some new ones.  One new face (to the house) was a guy named Danny.  He's a friend of TJ's...and I met him a few months back.  We never talked much before...but cool seeing him when I do.  So Sunday night, we talked for awhile...then headed to bed where we both passed out.  Yes, there was kissing and cuddling...lol....and yes, it was while watching a movie.  I fall asleep to the tv, so this is nothing new though.

Next morning...Monday, after sleeping half the day away, we got up and headed out.  We ended up going to catch a movie (Wall*e) which was decent.  It was definitely a Disney family movie...but cute.  After that, pretty simple...just headed back for chat.  Danny joined me for part of it...which was cool.  Then just grabbed dinner and went off to bed.

Tuesday, again after sleeping in a little...but not as long as Monday, we pretty much chilled.  Danny said we were going to get up earlier...but he slept in longer than me, lol.  Again, we just chilled most of the day.  I went to get a haircut, then left there and headed out to pickup Tyler (applicant Tyler) and take him to the airport.  He left just for a few days...cool seeing him again.  Before we hit the airport, we grabbed a bite and talked.  Hopefully I'll see him not too long after he gets back.  After all that, went home, did chat, ate...and passed out...with Danny.

Wednesday, slept in just a little...but had to get Danny up early.  He had to get all packed up and ready to go back home to VA.  So we didn't have a lot of time to chill.  With what little time we did have, we watched a movie.  He left, then I ran some errands.  Relaxed the rest of the day, had chat as usual....then got ready to head back out.  We had internet issues most of the day, so I was going nuts...had to get out.  I took Melem out to Pulse.  He was supposed to meet a guy there, but not sure that ever happened.  It was a decent crowd...got busy fast!  There were a few cute boys, but we both got tired of it rather quickly.  Melem also wasn't feeling too well, so it worked out that we left when we did.  No boys for either of us, but instead, just a few hours sleep each.  Why a few hours?  Melem was feeling so bad, that I ended up taking him to the hospital.  Nothing too major at the time, they diagnosed him with the flu...but we're not too sure if that was the case, as he went back a day later for chest pains.  His second visit, they said he needs to see a cardiologist...and soon.  He seems to be doing better, but we will be keeping an eye on him.

That pretty much took care of Thursday morning...hospital 6am-10am.  We did grab a bite after though, just before heading home.  After that, we both passed out...loooong night and an even loooonger morning.  I chilled around the house until chat.  Wasn't feeling too well myself - but that was merely a HUGE headache.  I intended to head out that night, but never did because of the headache.

Friday rolls around...4th of July.  We had our house meeting, but pushed off cleaning due to the holiday.  Thanks Zac!  The whole day was fun.  I was off chat, but stuck around for great food and nice fireworks with a couple house members & friends.

Saturday, we were supposed to do cleaning, but this was the second visit for Melem at the hospital.  We pushed it back another day.  I went to Daytona though, with Jay.  We grabbed his puppy (Snuggles), hit the beach briefly, grabbed a bite...then headed back.  It was cool to see Daytona....my first time there.  I was off chat again, but still stuck around the house.

Sunday, well Sunday was a busy day.  Started off first thing with a meeting for work.  After that, I came straight home to finish cleaning.  Chilled and finished diaries.  Then did my usual 9-10 chat.  After that, got ready to hit PHouse, went out...cruised a few cute guys...but of course didn't hit on any.  We did manage to get a few more people to come to the party though...one of which was applicant Tyler...yay!!!  He's sleeping with me tonight, hopefully we'll get a chance to hang tomorrow, but we'll see.  Aside from that, normal week.  Sleep, relax, *maybe work* chat, sleep.  Hope everyone had a great week...and an even better one to come.
