Christi Making Cookies for Santa.

Christi making cookies for Santa

End of a week.

Well, this is the week that I started school back up… Looking at my records I started College at Sierra JC in Fall of '97. So that makes what? nearly eight years of school? I should be getting a PHD by now! But, alas, all I have to show for it is an Associates degree and two more years until I finally get a Bachelors.

I'm not too worried about it though. Its been a good learning experience and life is good right now. I have a decent job that isn't too stresful and is flexible enough with school. I also don't have to work the weekends, although its not something I think about much any more I remember how much I hated working on the weekends at my old job, Earthlink over in Roseville. I also own my own house which puts me far a head of most people my age in the grand scheem of life and the American dream! Sure its a beater of a house, but its a start. We all have to start somewhere, and I decided to start here in a little old house in Sacramento.

The best part of my life, however, is the fact that I have the most awesome girlfriend! Before she came along it was getting harder and harder for me to have a positive outlook on my future. The only think that kept me sane was the fact that I knew I was the only one who could improve my life. Improving ones life while at a low point is a hard ass thing to do! With little to none external support I was able to motivate myself to loose my "Earthlink Fat." I had balloned up to 280 lbs before I realized that I was the only one who could loose this weight, then I did it. It wasn't easy at first, mainly becasue I didn't know what I was doing, but once I figured it out the weight slowly but surely came off. I had gotten myself down to 205lbs, just 6lbs from my goal weight, then I went from doing manual labor to my current office job and have since went back up to 225lbs. But the last two weeks I've been being more careful about what I eat and am slowly going back down. I'm currently between 218-221lbs.

Since Christi and I have started dating I don't mind as much having what flub I do have. Mainly because of the fact that I don't feel like I have to impress the world and society like I did before Christi. On the other hand I do want to look good for my woman! I think she deserves her hunka hunka burnin' love!

Well, I gotta wake my woman up or she's going to be late to her friends celibration tonight.

Peace out foolios!

A good picture

I have a program on my work computer that rotates pictures as my background and I saw this picture come up. Its a good picture that I wanted to post up here on my blog.

This is a picture of my wonderful girlfriend, Christi, and I on one of the trollies in San Francisco.

Bloggers Block

You know… Durring the day I have all sorts of creative thoughts that run through my head that make me think to myself 'That would be something really interesting to post on my blog' but by the time I get around to logging in here to post something I can never think of what it was i wanted to say, or how to say it.

Oh well, maybe if I just start typing something interesting will come out?

I've been reading up on Microsoft Access lately since school has been out in the hopes that i can create somthing nifty that will help me out at work. While I'm not learned enough in Access i know enough to get me started. This week I was able to tie together one of the main systems and present them well enough in forms to start using it. Today I started using it for actually inputting data. The more I use it the more ideas come to me on things I need to add. Unfortunately one of my main problems has always been when working on programs/websites i usually keep thinking of cool ideas i want to add and the project keeps getting so over wehlming that i never get it to the point of being used. I guess these are the moments where you need to write out your plan/goal and follow through with that, then once completed create another list of plans/goals and then follow through with those and not be blinded by the tantalizing thoughts of 'cool' features that I want to add.

Well, I guess this post wasn't to bad. Maybe the more I do this the better i'll be at posting interesting stuff, like some sort of philisophical/political/religious rant.
