I Want To Believe

// April 24th, 2008 // No Comments » // Just Blogging, Life, Random Thoughts

Walking into the office today my thoughts turned to the poster from the X-Files that basically outlined Mulder’s being on the show. I’m not sure why it came up or why it resonated with me at that moment but it did. I started thinking about all the things that I wanted to believe in then I got a little sad. I remembered back to all the things that were possible when I was a little kid, how everything still seemed within reach even when I got older.

I think we all have moments like this at some point and sometimes they hit home harder than at other times as well. For me, it was a momentary lapse that made me pause and think longer about it than maybe I should have….or maybe not.

My week so far

I’ve been doing alot more reading on my Kindle than I have in the past which I like. The main thing i’ve discovered is that reading more than one book on it is great. I have several books that i’m reading plus the local paper here in Austin. Since my mom was a librarian she was definitely happy that I was back into reading in a big way. She’s still a big reader and will sometimes finish a book in a day still, reading all night on the weekends. Crazy!

My buddy Tony from El Paso has been in town for the last few days. We played some Rock Band and hung out for the last few days while he was doing some work in town. Last night we went and hung out and I drunk way to many seven and sevens but otherwise had a great time. We’re planning to try and hit some games up in Denver this year, hopefully Paul will be starting!

Things to do in Denver

So, I finally found my camera and pulled some images off from my trip to Denver last year to check out the Broncos with my buddy Tony. Paul Smith who’s a good friend of Tony got us tickets and a sweet ass hotel room where he stays during the season. As you can tell from the photos it was way colder than it is here in Texas. It was a great trip and I hope to go back sometime this year during the season.

Here’s some more pictures from my trip.

Is this thing on?

So I got my Podcast equipment today. In all honesty I probably won’t get to play around with it until the weekend because alot of the equipment is pretty foreign to me. In addition since I run Vista, I need to check to make sure the software works well. It should however be fun! (more…)

Back at it

Man what a crappy weekend. Most of it was spent in bed both days as I was trying to catch up with all my sleeping issues from last week. I added some translation to the site but ran into a problem in getting all of them to work right. I currently have a help desk ticket open to check it out. In addition, I’ve turned off the twitter updates within the blog as they seemed to dominant it over the last few days. Kind of a lazy mans way to update. =)

I’m definitely looking forward to the game tonight. I have to pull for Kansas because I’m a fan of the Big 12 conference but I wouldn’t mind seeing Memphis win. They look really good. Other than that I’m gonna try to go to bed early (after the game) and get a workout in on Tuesday morning since I’m off on Friday!

Lost Saturday

Man what a crazy night. I really jacked up my site to the point where it wouldn’t come up. After about an hour I was back up and running and tired from the long week. (more…)

Leo Getz was right

Yesterday was an extremely long day and I didn’t help myself by not sleeping well the day before. So after going to bed after 3 am and waking up at 7 am, finally getting home at 10:30 pm made for a painful existence. (more…)

Shopping Spree

// April 1st, 2008 // No Comments » // Entertainment, Play, Techno Babble

I’ve been a bit of a techno nerd lately, ordering a Behringer Podcastudio Kit, a Livescribe smartpen, and a Kindle. The podcast studio is something I hope to have fun with soon, the Smartpen and Kindle are both backordered with the Smartpen probably shipping much sooner. I’ll have to tell you how they are once I get a chance to play around!

One down..

I’ve got all I could find up from one site and I’ve emailed Auric who owns the database over at Ianstorm so I can try and get my reviews, etc from there. In my previous life as a reviewer and all around news guy, I posted a lot of stuff, mostly news related articles. I really enjoyed doing it along with all the industry events I got to attend. Man those were the days.

Keep on keeping on

The onslaught continues as I keep adding more stuff to my site. I’ve been in the mode of capturing my past before it all disappears on the web as well as adding a bit of my past that very few people have had a chance to see. A little truth in advertising I guess. I really want to work on my About page and add pics and other stuff. I feel like i’m going into scrapbook mode on some of this. I hope I continue adding a bit each day. One can only hope.
