Afghanistan

Hello my readers
I know its been ages, but I got a new job that took me overseas to afghanistan.
My new job is IT based, and I love it. its the job I had to fly half way around the world to get according to Shivy who I would have been married to for a month or so by now. (another story for another time).
I know you all miss, I miss most of you.
Who has questions

Thoughts of the AM

LOL, yes I'm really laughing

Women and words, they mean more to them than they really should.

My Thai friend has started a small obsession with black men (I'm not making matters for her any better by showing her BBC porn) I gave her a few movie recommendations as to see a good example with "why did I get married", and "why did I get married too". She's gotten to the point where she wants to see me in the nude, lol. I would, but the GF would loose her mind and end my life. I am claimed property in woman world.

Apple is playing with my emotions again. They took the money twice, and put it back twice. I'm just at the point where I will wait till this summer to get one when there in a wider availability and won't cause me grief.

I see that my two dominate groups of friends are the Dominicans and my Nigerians, in third comes the Thai , which only has one person in the group, but we chat enough for them to be on the scale.

Lets talk jobs on the table.
1.HS - I signed up for them ages ago and remain my top choice for all the options they offer.
2. Aerotek (Cliff, he's awesome) - various tech jobs in DC, its just a job, not looking for much from these types of positions with the five sided building.
3. Afghan - 97k - 100k+ for doing a contract job in afghan, not bad. One draw back, the Girly will miss me. Pro's out weigh the cons, I'm going if given the chance, I'll leave that decision to God and AEcom.
4. Tamp - Lockeed M. in tampa has me down, they haven't made any decisions, and as per normal, I'm not holding my breath.

My sponsoring parental unit is on me about signing up everywhere, but in baltimore, no one is hiring for the money or of worth here, so I have to go elsewhere. I'm sure she would love for me to work here for $11/hr as long as she doesn't have to pay someone to do her professionally kept yard. If you have seen my yard, you know u have to pay for it to look like that if you were someone else.

I would love to say its time for me to leave baltimore, but every time I see an opening, I'm denied. What does He/She have in store for me, I have no clue.

Wednesday of CrockPottery

So Monday
we went to the 5th reg armories  job fair, no parking, so I used my mil id and parked inside. We went upstairs to a good turn out and what we found out later to be a poor selection of  jobs. If your looking for something low paying and dead end with the exception of the fire and police department, that was the place to be.

Tuesday - we did notta

Wed - Cliff woke me up (he's my aerotek recruiter) and asked me if I wanted a job doing tech stuff in bethesda/pentagon, I accepted. Hours later, the GF and I are in her pre screen for some job she applied to yesterday at the job fair. While I was out in the parking lot sleeping I got a call for AEcom, an overseas company, we chatted, all went well, lets see what happens. I still have another job still processing my paper work, but  I'm not holding my breath.

We shopped for food, I'm using both crock pots tonight to do tangy chicken and "to much cheese mac n cheese". So far as I write this, I'm cooking also. The mac n cheese is super creamy.

2morrow, I plan on doing more gardening, the GF and I are doing a starter flower garden, fun fun.

TSX

apple is pissing me off, they will give up my iPad darn it.
we went to check out cars, used of course, and it was like so cool.
she sat me down to read her blog, it was all doom and gloom, she's not a happy person.
if anyone else were to sit down and read it, they would think I'm the worst boyfriend in the world.
Aerotek wants me to go to work at the navy yard, cool.
ARL hasn't called back yet, not really worried if they do.
Some other company wants me to go to Kings Bay, GA, thought that was pretty cool.
all in all with the gloomy gf, all is well.

iFat

Im fat
ate to much since yesterday
GF made bread, yea
her bread is deadly always puts me to sleep
had an interview, it went well, will apply to one more temp job 2morrow
iPad comes later this month
taxes come in
the mood of the GF is good to frustrated, damn the weather its about her mood.
a happy GF is a good GF. when she's not, hide in another country.
I like lindt chocolate truffles, I have 4 bags I eat casually.
I drink liquor casually, which is why I have such a large collection or had, still trying to give it away.
she's sitting on the couch eating cream cheese and crackers.
cheese, she has cheese.

Dont tell the GF

but she gettin up
I just saw why did I get married, the first one, and I want to see the second.
she helped me through it, I held her arm and leg, I think she can still use them to get through the movie, it was just that painful.
were going to see the second one

and its going to be 3-4 days of madness. Oh Joy.

ms. So wanted her to change the channel without question, but this is my GF were talking about, not going to happen. So she questions why and I tell her,

guy was an IT pro who got hired and sent to Korea where he met his database admin/designing wife (yes she was korean). Mannnnn that's like one of my drea

She mad
We were watching some show om HGTV where couples looked at and purchased homes. The first couple is what made me wanna change the channel. White

Just found out the gf can't stand baltimore club, ig only she understood that it got me into trance and my other forms of music she hates.

"whats that you say"

the house is good tonight
today was the day of awesome.
cleaned the basement
repaired a trash can
donated
fixed a pc
had pizza that was the same thickness as a sheet of paper
saw and old friend, poked her
tormented the GF
oh yea

The Sine wave of emotion

So today we left the house and went to wendy's by the plaza.
That's when our retarded day started. The chick at the front was all fraked up.
Pants hanging off her ass, inefficiency with the fries, we had one fresh order and one cold one. There are more complaints about that 20 minuts of super unproffesionalism, but damn, If i thought anything would could have been done I would have called already.

Our next bout of retardedness was at walmart, people forgot how to walk. GF normally has issues with this, but today the other humans took the cake.

Next incident of retarded ness was at my bank or credit union. This chick took forever to deposit money, normally the two service lanes are slower but for some reason three customers cleared the service lanes before she even got off one deposit.

I purchased new wiper blades, one rainx blade ($20) and one generic blade. I installed them, and wow, the really expensive blade works wonders, the generic is ok, but the rainx blade surprises me.

went to bed with a crying GF
woke up to a crying GF
1.5 days of complaints
OH Joy, 4 years n going.

1.How to walk with others
2. The poles on the street
3.Failed ideas, need to get over them

Hell, if she could learn to maintain calm and cool and get over things, LIFE would be awesome for her.

this week, the week of exams.

1 exam down that I stayed up till 8am to do.
Results were mixed, got a few laughs but oh well.
2 more exams to do.
lil worried about books, but i know something will come down the pipe.
Anniversary weekend, 4 years on saturday.

Otakon

Now that I don't have to go to Iraq at the end of this summer, I can go to Otakon this summer.
I wanna get my own hotel room, call up the homies cause its going down.
GF is mad about the idea of course, but she probably doesn't realize that its otakon.
only time of the year I can completely be myself, don't think she likes the idea of her not coming.
Oh Well, its otakon, whoooooo (rumpsringa).

Dear Ashely

I see why you blog now, its a release of emotions and feelings on paper, well screen. Even though I can't really say what I want to (she lives with me), it helps.

P. Mofo

The cycle

I feel better after I blog.
I just have to deal with the backlash later.
Then I blog again
Then deal with that backlash
Then I blog again
Then backlash
Then blog
backlash
blog
backlash

Its a vicious cycle.

Its spring, yea and oh shizzly (I don't curse unless being shot at)

so here's a thought that occured to me at 2 in the morning that just happend today that just processed in my mind.

spring is here
spring is really really here. after all the snow storms and rain (more rain will come) spring is finally here. i love to hear or at least read on facebook of all the buddies near and far enjoying spring, its awesome.

Next thought, the bad side. The GF and my Mother, here we go. The both demonstrated that this isn't going to work with them being in the same house. She (GF) doesn't wanna come out of the basement, and the queen being the queen needs things to be done. Normally I'm not involved in the inner house spring cleaning, I'm all out doors before allergy season sets in, pain is a comin. Yesterday or just a few hours ago I should say, my mother tried a BS way to try and get me to shampoo the entire living room. WTF for me if you really know me, I can shampoo and do most if not all boring inner house stuff, but just don't BS me about it, just tell me to do the whole thing, don't give me a bottle of spot cleaner and tell me to clean up the spots that I put there from taking food to the basement. BTW, I've never shampoo'ed the carpet, maybe a section but never the whole thing.

Lets add in the GF, she hates going up stairs, she's scared too, don't really blame her, I stepped in her flip flops. I asked her if she could help out, don't know why, was trying to incorporate her in to the mix of things, it failed. She did what I asked her (more like negotiated with a foreign country that didn't want anything to do with my war) and returned to the basement. LOL, next up comes an angry queen, I clean like the typical me (guy I guess). I see a spot or spots, I clean just those and leave the rest alone, she gets mad cause I didn't do the entire carpeted area of the living room (its wall to wall). To me, I'm like, um ya, uh huh, grab my crab cake dinner and go back down stairs.

Today ladies and gents, well mostly ladies (all 8 of you as of today) I have an accounting exam to study for, its important, it seems to have the makings of a thorn in my side like c++ was for my undergrad degree.
I hope the girly gets the hint, jumps in the ride without to much of her fanfare, and were in Strayer owings mills, she's on the pc, and I'm studying accounting. I would do better if she weren't there (some times she's a bit needy and some how isn't able to function independently of me, kinda sad I know, but she's still a noob here, well not really. ) but alas I can't abandon her to spring cleaning queen. I know what will happen. Oh the whinning and complaining that will go on. FML and LOL.

the lamb

so I tried to make lamb in a crock pot and it came out bla, my mother would love it, but I don't, so ehh.

Sex and Masters Degrees

here I sit on the last 2 weeks of class:
2 papers to do
1 presentation
1 online assignment
2 finals.

so much fun to be had.
The GF wants to feed me partially digested earth for health reasons.
After last night, I understand why she wants to kill me. Its bad when I get bored during sex and just stopped. I know thats bad but, ehh.

The new friend got a job as a corrections officer in VA, thats going to be an odd one to see.
I like crock pots, this will be my second meal created in one. The lamb will be ready around 9pm.
Shure headphones suck, but then again, I have to sample the 120 variety of shure compared to bose.
I shop more at the grocery store now then anywhere else.

One thing that still bothers me out side of life and whats written above, she's still weak. Still waiting on that day that Net wifey said would come, the day where she takes and stand and says frak it, and balls,  for a lack of a female term, grow. Would hate to have to break up with her before that day or have the break up cause that day. We will see what the future holds, no marriage till I see strength. I could be wrong, I know I am.
She's weak, I hate weakness.

pre patty weekend

so met a new friend, got a few new gadgets, a custom zippo lighter, lunch with friends, had a pretty good weekend. Feel a lil bad about leaving the girly alone on satuday, but it did some good, can't be around her all the time, I just wish she would get some friends already. She's not the most social thing (not really a thing) but g'z. I remember on one of her forums that she showed me, it said that the key to a great woman was having friends, she doesn't really have any in bmore. Oh well, God, she needs friends.

its small. Your safer in a war zone than baltimore city.
You only live once.

or job help, giving it by saying the military is hiring, and then getting the uhh look, the military isn't that bad. There may be a chance of death, but

It seems to work in dc you need to join the military, get a clearance, survive, get out then sign up for jobs in dc. Kinda getting tired of being asked f

She's crazy

she got her crockpot
I'm using it to cook for her
so she's super happy.
thats all i'm going to say.

Yooooooo

I've been micro blogging as of late aka twitter, so if you keep up with me on twitter you know whats going on.

its get stuff done week, so I'm in get stuff done mode.
mOst of the snow around the castle is gone, so I we can start cleaning up trash left by our wonder neighbors.

On the academic side of life, I have like 2 papers, and a bunch of other stuff to do.

On the GF side of life, she's recovered from the 3 day spat of crying and asking why, yatta. She made red beans n rice for me today, my mom was surprised. LOL.
Shivy's secret kitchen is almost done, she just needs a crock pot and she's good. We did a bit of shopping on saturday night, and ended up with a lot of boxes, we didn't feel like hearing what the queen would say so we disposed of the evidence.

The Friends are fine, seems like everyone is getting new phones or BB's. wonder whats next.

Good news to my apple fans, the ipad will be available to order this friday, both versions, 3G version here I come.

I figured out my sound bar, for some reason it goes with the increase in volume of how the music or media is made,  pretty cool, it has a normalizer button, but I turned it off when listening to house, it was killing the bass, we know I love bass.
All is well today.

Army news - I passed my PT test so I'm good for a year, and can get promoted. Sammie my sonsumate follower and mentee passed also.
Funny things came from her all weekend long, its amazing the stuff that happens when U learn more about people.  She told me about how the dudes she finds turn out to be total wusses and they profess there love for her, and being that she has man like tendencies, she gets pissed. To funny. I twitted  one of her quotes, "Do you have Manhood" - Sammie.

I feel as though as I'm being villanized for using my black berry all the time.
I feel as though I'm being villanized for being my tech loving self, won't stand for this much longer.

wow, what a bomb that has been dropped

so you have been together for 4 years, and have just been told that it will be a 2.5 year wait before you get what you want. what will you or would u do.

Leave, why

Stay, why

I'm not easy to deal with but I know when work has been put in and rewards are needed. After being with me for 7 years, she will have earned the title of wife, it just scares me of what will happen when she finally does. will she loose her mind or will she get a lil saner, then again, are good women really sane. Is there a such thing a an emotionally stable, well adjusted female, who knows. I would like to think so, but I know better given my current environment.

Oct 10 2012, she might just might get what she wants, I say might for you never know what the future holds.

I was told that Morgan State has courses in satellite technology.

Do you know how badly it burns in me to want to take a course in the things I want but can't find courses that only last 1- 2 weeks and not months on end. I want my ccna, and other cisco courses. I have most of the equipment now, just want the class that will really prepare me for the 50 question, 90 min test.

First Time out

Proof that I play Paintball

My gf likes the forever 21 in owings mills, which is a dead mall, to the one in columbia. She calls columbia sparkly ugliness.

saturday

got my crocs on
got the GF's nails done
got the massage done
went to mcdonalds
did a lil walking around columbia
saw a lil asian friend working her ass off
GF's forums are awesome
- What are you thoughts on wives submitting to their husbands in marriage?  What about in pre-marital relationships?


Here's my fav topic of the day by her forums, 
- Women don't wanna be approached, so how are they supposed to meet people. 
kinda interesting

Babies and Cell Phone's

its to cute, a friends baby girl eating her iphone.

Its janet or tenaj, it all depends on what she wants to call herself.

Its the lil cousin, she needs to be put in school for like super smarter people.

its the Fairy De Lois, all I'm going to say, well she's super sexy in her fairy costume. 

The hottness on the right is the Angel Nurse Michelle, kinda interesting how I have 2 Michelles, one is an RN the other is an aspiring RN. She's missed, california has her.

Nigerians aren't all bad, some are insanely awesome.

Its not Olukemi, no its Deyo's more social sister, Lolade. She's a great insite into another way of life and thinking with out the spite of her older sister, Deyo. My GF says if she wasn't in the pic, Deyo and I were to be an item. LOL. Life

one of my lil'er friends from dominica, yes we know she's hot.

First net wifey, lesson that I Learned, the wifey claims you, you don't claim the wifey. She can still get it though, LOL.

my nephew, he seeks to drive us crazy, LOL

Every now and again, I come across friends of family that are hot to death, and my cousin Brindia, has one, thought she was hot, till I rememebered whose friend she was, then the fantasy just died.

Its Netwifey, all I'm going to say - don't ask how it happend, I was just told, and ended up married on the net.

Its Michelle, my ever happy seriously cursed adopta cousin. She's very impresionable, she needs a shyt load of good people around her and she will be good. She wants to be an army Nurse. I'm sure she knows the steps to get there but to help her out, if she ever reads this:

1. Go to a 4 yr with a ROTC program.

2. Finish and commision.

3. Happy nurse fun

there are other ways , but thats my fav, she will get the most out of it.

Its KT, we have this weird mental connection, wonder what it would be like if she were actually here, hmmm. love her brain

don't know why casino hates this pic, but we did get a pic of him sleeping on the bus, at the end of this ride, the class had a bit of condensation on it, yes, he was sleeping hard.

More Date pics

date pics 1

happy Cutie Pic

this is the GF our on our date night. The Empress said that we were looking for an excuse to go out, so I said, to celebrate my bday. Didn't get to do it since there was a snow storm.

Monday

ok so today my net wifey comes home and blows up the blackberry for good reason.
She and her crew went on a ski trip to Boston, Her Super Man was supposed to join them by flying from the ATL to Boston, the airlines fraked him. She was super sad, wish I could have been there with a shot of Tequila and a hug.

The GF and I started out early today thanks to my aunt needing me to move my car. I wanted to get rid of stuff in my foot lockers and help rid the the house of junk so, we did. We went into the garage, started there, dropped off stuff to good will, got her hair done, shopping, had food, purchased DJ Hero and all was well.

While on the way back she posed this question - If your 15 year old daughter asked you could she get married, what would your answer be.
I said hell yea, I'm paying for the honey moon, and I'm only doing it once. Then I would ask, where are you living. If here, there will be requirements, Summer jobs, buy me a new TV and help out.

Then she asked what if your kids came to you and said they were having sex. My reply, that would make me happy as hell, why, they came to me and told me, I must be doing something hella right if there not hiding anything from me.

Everyone says I'm going to make a great and interesting dad, we shall see.

Iraqi Saturday.

Hi all

I have more wonderful news which I'm excited for, I got new stuff, bags and new army cool info.

lets start with bags.. We wen't and got new stuff since were going to iraq this summer, so we turned in old green stuff and got shiny new digital stuff. Being that I'm a bag whore, I brought the big ruck sack home since were doing VA next month, subject to change.

Who is SGT.Moss, some skinny female sergeant that I seem to not know. Why is this, she's quiet to the brotha's and doesn't talk much, so hmmmm.

My padawan and I are so happy, why we get to do hardcore year long tech support, and we can't wait, brinig it on.

I see why God loosed me from my job, were going on like these 2 week at a time training classes, so it fits in my life.

Who knows what ABCS is (army something computer systems ?)

we have some smart idiots in our signal company. They ask question that were answered if they would have listened.

thinking 3 idiots now.

The GF is pissed, mad, angry, sad when I told her the most happy news, would like to go out with other happier people and celebrate this happy news, but thats now prudent. So I will just go to bed. GF greed is a motha.

My Mother is taking it a lil better, since she's been through this before, she's a lil more ok with this than the GF is, so yeah, I'm still excited.

Friday

Hi all,
I have 4 followers
and I know they don't read this everyday, oh well, who cares, they or some will get around to reading this oneday.

any who, GF's are awesome, a good one is hard to find, I think I might be among the small percentage that finds a wife and disapears from society's eyes, which is a good thing.

we did a lot yesterday.
I got my routers so I can pursue my ccna in my way aka hands on hardware.
Would like to thank thee almighty for all of this and the router man of the north.

we did a lil shopping yesterday, crocs were on sale for 10$, I got my first pair. I see what jason see's in them, they are comfy, don't try and run to fast in them, there not for running.

I have to print out 6 sexy models and put them on the routers and switches, the routers will get my top 3 favs, while the switches will get my some what harder working models. This is how my mind works, and trust me it will work out well.

I have drill today, saturday and sunday. Were turning in stuff to get new stuff to mob this summer. Yea gortex, gotta go, car needs warming. Later.

the wednesday after

so today I woke up to a war dream, me being in exitene during wwii, and then the GF jumped on me to wake me up, she was about to get smacked then I saw the light. Danger averted.

Got a call from Cisco man of the north, I have to get my routers 2morrow and get my cisco on so I can be of use when desert time comes. I must be of use. Damn the nec (they said I don't take initiative, ha frakers)

Studied for my exam, shoveled snow.
Remembered I have other online HW.
I studied the wrong thing for my accounting exam, life suck there, but I can recover.

I will now finish watching the hurt locker with the girl.

According to the GF women, well the avg woman only has like 5-6 bra's and they don't change them daily.
This is shocking to me, I'm an ass man, but the boobies are a close friend. I always thought they were changed daily like the lower section of underwear, wow, wowwwww, OMG wow. I will now support the bra buying habit, even though the GF doesn't have one. I like the boobies, and they will be clothed in awesomeness.

I got fired today

To all of those who asked, here is the answer on why I was fired from my job. this could be a cautionary tale, story of inspiration, or just something to muse you months from now reading this on your iPad sitting on the toilet.

In November of last year, I landed a job as a IT rep for Ross Technologies (he named names, oh snap). The job was described as something new and interesting everyday. I would go places, meet people, do meetings, hob knob with the general officers. None of that happened, not in the least, it was something completely different. The job really turned out to be sitting there try to answer emails helping with problems that you have to be there for a year or two before you can help or answer questions. I read all the regs, stigs, literature, training, did extra training, and it still wasn't enough.

Don't forget about the other debacle that led to this moment (the falling asleep incident, etc.)
Now lets take the fact that someone said I didn't take initiative, after last weeks snowpacalypse, that was blown out of the water. Let me reiterate what went on during snowmageddon. I drove a hummer in extreme maryland winter conditions aiding the fire department. It was also said I wasn't proactive, ha ha ha ha ha, that was blown out of the water too.

According to my mother, they fired me for going with the guard doing the state emergency, I don't know how you all feel about it, but damn, I kinda agree.

LMAO.
I went shopping after the canning, got the GF uggs, got my self a blazer, hung out with the girlies, and called it a day.

Mall sanity coming soon

So its the GF's First day out after being snowed in for like a week. She's shoveled snow in my absence, Go wifey. So we digg a lil more, get my car out and hit our fav mall, well mine, she doesn't have one yet. Keep in mind its sunday, Valentines day (vagina day according to former island wifey), and the second day most people had free from the snow.  I'm distracted, will finish later

I have 2 cousins that off the top of my head, if they were to ever ask for a bill to be paid, I would do it without hesitation. Tiffi is one of them, why, she's military, which means a lot to me, oh and wait, she's full time navy, way better than being part time (cough cough).
The other is charles, he's a baltimore county fire dept. medic. If you read the previous post or blog, U will understand what I went through, and now feel his pain.

My Theory on Mixing the races

if you mix colors your going to have an awesome time.
during my time with  the BCFD I noticed something, the all white crews, there was only one, were dry as hell when it came to personality. The mixed crews were like a party waiting to happen as soon as 3 or more people were in the room.

Lets throw in the P.Mofo perspective for a sec. Imagine looking at a wall that was the same color for a year, would drive you nuts, well I would think so. Now imagine the wall where there are colors and there always changing, dynamic. What would make for a better visual experience, the lone color or an ever changing wall.

Where I have been for 8 days.

well people I'm back.
After being snowed in for like never, I am getting back to my normal routine.
While others were trapped in a house, I was out with the the National Guard and Baltimore County Fire department rescuing people. It was pretty damn exhilarating.

Large Middle Finger to who ever said I don't take initiative, and I'm not motivated. Sit on it and spin.

I have a bit of home work to catch up on, and more snow to shovel at home.
I have some selfish ass cousins (Tiffi's dad, I'll tell you about cousin Tiffi, she's awesome). I'm out doing awesome things, this fraker just diggs himself a path to the car pad clears himself a space.

My GF clears walk ways around the house, and he just clears notta.
She deems him "worthless and found wanting". He sat there and watched her shovel out a pathway.


I got a first hand look at how a fire department works. Its pretty interesting to  see what they go through, what they have to deal with, and how they got to where they are now. There are some race issues in there also. Did I also mention I have a cousin (Charles) who is a County medic, I felt his pain. Every five seconds, the medics are gone, every hour or so, the engine was gone, every half a day, the truck was gone. To those of you who don't know, the truck is the hook n ladder, the engine is the one with all the hoses, and the medic is the ambulance. During state emergencies, where they need national guard help, they add our hummers to the mix. We can blast through snow, so much fun.

Iz Friday Biotches

I sit here listening to Lars Berenroth's Deeper shades of house, doing the house nod, bob, moving melodically to the groove. I love house, love the beats, love its international appeal. Reminds me of a few of my peeps from Chicago (Jamaican Hottnes, and Brown Fairy Queen). How can you be sad with house, house makes me happy.

Makes me almost forget about the nosy bitch who damn near has me out of a job, why, house doesn't put you to sleep. It has me remembering that today is someone's day of birth, he he, lol, yes I'm laughing, my over powered image of the birthday girl always has me rolling as my imagination takes over when I think of her. Can U say Violence.

My Thai hottie remember it was my bday, and then proceded to call me old, she's only like a few years younger than me, I'll remind her when its time. Love how women fear getting old, its funny.

Today's financial plan:
1. Pay Myself (what toy will I get today)
2. Invest in my education (routers, switches)
3. Pay bills

Oh shizzle, its Jill Scott on the pod cast.
I love how house dj's, the mozarts of our day, take an artist and make them better.
Jill Scott is good on her own, but once a house DJ gets a hold of her, she's awesome.
If someone would remix India Arie, awesomeness, same with Corine Bailey Rae, and other talented female solo artist.

A good FB friend and I are having the talk on why she should buy an iPad, being that she's a college student right now, I say don't unless you have the cash to burn.

My Reason's that I'm getting one come April.
1. Its a bigger iPod touch
2. It will have 3g for 30 a month
3. Apple makes it

Can't get any simpler can it.

Cool I can blog from my blackberry

Router Sexiness

when I get my routers 2morrow, I'm going to name them after the picture of the urban model I put on them, sexy I know.

I'm a bag whore, I purchased something I've been looking for since I first put it on, and army ruck sack, size med, really want a small, but this will do. I will be my mill bag and over all do everything bag for a while. On the bag schedule I'm due to wear my laptop oakley bag I got on sale at the oakley store on apple day.

I have a friend, we love chipotle, we go once month at minimum. There is this dude who has been giving her issues. I know she kinda likes him, cause he has her doing crazy things that normal people do. He's stopping her from drinking starbucks due to his fear and possible insecurity over my queen to be and I taking her to chipotle and starbucks. We will pull up with bags of food and cups in our hands and he might be standing at the door accusing her of doing a 3 some with us. LOL Hill Larry Us.

Psichomofo is an Angel Also

My mind is at rest, God rolled through and said he had something for me to do, a word needed to be dropped, so I did. Then I left, I'll find out down the road what happend.

Do you remember when I talked about my gym and the 2 - 3 women that run it (slightly ghetto, Red Sonya, and Chief.Stallman's sister). As I was running up to my lovely lil gym finishing my 3 mile run, slight ghetto rolls past me, waves and smiles, and rolls on. Cool, she noticed me (remember I'm a nerd, and she's jamaican hotness) I finally run up as she's getting out and as I'm catching my breath and slowly dying I get out "if you see me fall over, just roll me over so I can breath". I get a chuckle, and the door to the gym is held open till I walk up, yea. I walk in, she heads to her office and I head to the showers (yes I shower at my gym). I finish my shower, dress, and head out the door, as I'm heading out, I glance and notice, jamaican hotness is crying (can we get an awww from the readers). 1st thought, I wonder whats wrong. 2ng thought, lets uplift a spirit - I know my main role in life darn it. First thing that pops into my head was 2nd Tim 1:7, aka No Fear. (For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.) I walk into the office, and ask Red Sonya for her bible, she's a bible reader like my self, she reads from cover to cover, I read from romans till the end. I flip to the No Fear verse, show it to R.S. and pass it on, she lights up and says "I have to show this to her". I knew my job was done and rolled out.

Can U smell what the God is cookin.

Well I can't just yet, probably won't ever, but I know something is up.

Wondering how he's going to handle my issues.

(you take care of the things of God and he will take care of you)

Post Founder Thoughts

so I had a phone call with the founder, pretty cool guy, I can see why he is where he is, he has the gift of talk and I'm sure he's backed it up with a great deal of knowledge. Awesome

but as normal, a few of what I see as my anti personality traits have come out.

I'm not proactive

I'm don't take initiative

He's not in love with the job

G, great here we go againnnnn.

I remember back to the time I was an ROTC cadet, and these same things came out, I was a bit in shock, like really, I'm not proactive, meaning I seek out work, I ask a billion questions. Well, I'm not, every time I have asked for something to do, I always end up cleaning a toilet, so I just stopped asking (this is also metaphorical). I'm not questionative, cause I get what you say and mean from the start, later on down the road I'll end up con-strewing it with my own, but I know to go back and ask for the same spill of information again. hmmmmmmmm

Ahhhh, guberment work, I'm at a corporate level, I don't like corporate, guess its time to start looking for a new job I would be happier with, yeaaaa. My Queen to be is soon to be employed, hope she will be happy with what she picks up.

What am I thinking deep down in side my feelings, my inner most feelings.

1. this job isn't for me

2. I'm going to find another

3. The Queen is going to bitch again, but harder this time

4. ahh, the bills, uggggg

5. Quitting a job your not happy with during a recession (I'm all for that)

6. To hear the crying of the Princess, uggggg.

7. Fuggg me, I'm a laid back, easy going person, who doesn't get excited to much, and shows those emotions and things type A personalities love in a diff way, I love being Type B. (laughing)

Oh well, lets lace up the casual shoes and get to steppin (R.Kelly is now playing in my head)

thursday, the day of the founder

As I sit here emptying my mind of thoughts for the am while listening to dance department. I wonder what God has in store fore me today. By the way, I'm sitting here typing this with my head laid back on the back of my office chair, with my eyes closed. I'm sure if some branch chief were to walk by again, she would say I’m sleeping, again.

Anyway, on with the thoughts of the day.

I got an email last night while in class from the VP and Founder of my lil tech company founded by and for women and minorities ( love the concept). Things must be bad if its had to go this far or is this how much they care, I'm going with care given there track record with me and the other employee's (Anthony's Dad), there Cool. So I get to sit or chat with him about what’s going on with me and my inter actions with my current position. There have been reports of my conduct being some what lacking. Well that’s always the case no matter where I go, just my life. But least someone took the time to actually ask me and I get to say: WTF is this shizzlay. I was told one thing when I was offered this job, I probably had my expectations ramped and really to high, but frak man, this is some BS.

For what it really is, its a government job truly dedicated to keeping track of the on going battle and saga of the faction to the north and how there fighting a loosing battle to keep there identity. My Senior who has been dealing with this insanity since OCT of 2008 is awesome at this sort of thing, I guess that’s just how he is and how he's been crafted to deal with this, me on the other hand, not quite so, I'm apple like in my thinking and interactions. I'm glad I have an iMac to work on (YIPPY, he he he, ha ha), I live eat, breath and sleep the KISS principle, its like my life.

The KISS principle is an old military acronym for Keep It Simple Soldier. We could go on to break it down a lil farther, but I'd rather keep is simple. It just means what ever you do, just keep it simple, for when u over complicate it, things just go badly. Example, taking out the trash, simple, I just takes out the trash, its just one step. Women in general are our over thinkers on many things and would have trouble keeping things simple. I always stand by the belief that everything is simple and it’s only us that complicates it.

I think I was talking about my on coming talk with the Founder here; I love how I can get off track with things. So what I'm going to say:

I was told this job was going to be exciting and something new and interesting was going to happen every day.

Interaction with angry people would happen on a day to day basis.

I would have to let go of actually putting my hands on the problem machine.

This isn't a tech intensive job

There was more to this, but that’s the general Idea. You know how they hype up, or over generalize a job advertisement. The job didn't turn out to be any of that, it turned out to be . . . let try this for a general idea:

I spent my first two months really not doing anything. I went to meetings, met people, got set up, which was about it. My daily schedule in all honesty was, get here, read email that had nothing to do with me, and sleep for half the day till work out time. Yes I do work out; the small gym here is great. There is one hot somewhat ghetto chick, Red Sonya and kettle bells (I love kettle Bells). After the afternoon killing of myself I would find food in my stash, which most of the time constitutes me eating noodles in a microwave I kind of burnt down. (story for another time) After lunch its normaly 2ish, so I have 2 hours left in the day since I get here at 7 am every morning, give or take 10 min. 4pm rolls around and its finally, time to go home, but first a fight with 695.

95 south is no problem, its always free flowing, 80 mph the whole way, but once you hit 695, uggggggg. When you get to 83 south, its smooth sailing. I swear ( I don't really swear) if it wasn't for 695, I would save so much gas. In general thats my daily routine.

In the 2 months I've had this job, I've helped maybe 3 people, which is inline to what the other parts of my official job description, I've gotten 2 real phone calls that I can remember of people actually calling me for help, one of which as it turns out didn't need to happen. I go to meetings that are 90% useless, cause they involve us (jesse & Sean) but they really don't. All Jesse really does once again is keeps track of screw ups, bad behavior of the faction to the north. Then answers emails and calls all day, the man needs a raise, a vacation and sleep. You know what makes it so bad and I can't remember the name of the word or phrase for it, is that he has all the info I need in his head, and when I ask him, he gives me an hour long answer to a simple yes or no question. When I try to help someone on my own, I have to go back to him to get the question answered thus making it pointless to try and help when he’s just going to answer it in the first place. I would love to help out more if something was put in writing or there was some sort of training to this job, wait, does that make me a trained monkey, hope not.

Lets also add in Windows Vista issues, if you know me you know I hate vista and everything that has to work with it. We have this ticket system that is really a POShizzlay. What ever happend to SQL and ODBC so we can make our own reports and queries with eaze. OMG Government tech almost sucks, notice I said almost.

Wish there was more info written down in a place easily findable so I could find it, reference it, use it to answer more questions. All information learned here is by word of mouth, and we know how that goes.

If I'm to stay in this job, I need the training and info sources to do so, and more to do to keep me awake and thinking.

If I'm to leave, I'm going back to actually laying hands on computers, it suits me.

The Value of an Education

as I sit here waiting for my 2 pm meeting I think back to some of my friends, people I see on the streets, in class, and just out and about and wonder "what is the value of an education". To some including myself it means more money. To other is opportunities they wouldn't have without one. True that in rare cases you don't need one, but it helps those who don't have those gifts or blessings to not need one.

With a HS diploma, you can get a minimum wage job.

With a BS you can get what most consider a real job

With a MS you can get a Higher Paying Job

With a Doctorate, wow.

Thoughts anyone.

lunch

what will I eat for lunch, hmm, already had a sandwich for brunch, wonder if the commissary has a fruit salad. I have orders to get milk from my support officer, but that will be done when I leave for the day to go to class. Don't feel like chicken, or beef, or meat for that matter ( hard to believe isn't it)

the Faction to the north

so according to the Asst. of all things IT, he says that our frenemies are looking for any excuse to get there way and to delay the obvious, there dying and coming to live here where they will have to learn our ways of doing business. I won't be around long enough to see this happen, but I love the thought of adults acting like kids who don't wanna do something so they try there hardest to fight the unavoidable.

OOHHHH its funny.

GS Behavior

Today in one of my meetings our assistant director of all things IT mentioned that our faction to the north exhibit GS Behavior. When I heard this concept I was like what is this GS level Behavior. I went to his office and asked him about his curious phrase. He told me that its an old school term (I'm still new to goverment work according to him) that describes people who have government jobs and have been around for so long that they try and get out of work. So if you hear someone with a goverment job come up with a thousand and one excuses on why not to do something, they are exhibiting GS Behavior.

In the national guard, we have it too, but we took it a level hire, we don't come up with excuses, we quote regulations on why we can't do something. Now whether the regulation is true or even exist who knows, but say that its in the regs is enough.

why I blog Again

From the Mind of Bolu - Why are you blogging again

Me - my boredom lead me to sleeping

sleeping lead me to get in trouble

trouble lead me to a convo with my project manager

he lead me to start posting things as to say

this is what I've done today

so its to keep me awake as why I do it

I'm supposed to tell dude that I have attended a meeting today where I learned what was going on with the faction to the north and that I have learned the name to there way of thinking and thats its called GS behavior. Should I do a blog about GS Behavior. I shall.

Dat Chick in Alabama

She's hot, sweet, smart, inteligent, college educated but best of all

She's into anime, manga, xbox, ps games, and all those awesome things.

So why in God's name is she single. What is wrong with the men in her area, her realm of living that no one has picked her up yet. Her standards are fine, nothing is physically or mentally wrong with her, nothing. Oh she plays paintball too.

She's a great friend, but lets explore the other side of the coin, Men, Black men in particular.

I've read stories, post, asked for opinions and facts as to why great women can't find great men.

According to a post on abc news, (partial miss quote, go with me on this) 50% of blackmen are in jail. 40% of the remaining 50 aren't on her level meaning they have a HS diploma or less. So that leaves 10 of a population of 20 million that are potential. So she has 2 million to choose from. She lives in a major metropolitan area, well 2 of them. What could the problem be, I wont' speculate or attempt to guess, thats what the readers are for, so answer away.

They Need a God to cry to

I notice a trend in kids that missing in adult life.

Lets remember for a minute that a childs life and behavior is the same in adult life, just smaller.

I have a 3 year old nephew who is my primary example of this, when he's hungry while visiting he knows who to go to for food, his grand mother. When ever I put him out of my room (I don't condone bad behavior or attacking my fish tank) he goes and cries to his Grand Mother. When ever his mother is getting on his nerves, he tells his grand mother, and I find this funny, why, his grand mother gets things done for him for she has power.

When we get older, and have issues, people turn to religion, to a greater power to get things done when there afflicted with something greater than themselves. Being that I was born into the christian faith, we call this greater power, God.

When She is prayed to (refer to my post on God), He reacts and things get done.

Lets relate this to something going on in my lil corporate world. In my lil corporate world we are civilians working for the military and our former people who got things moving for us are no longer over us or our god is gone. Our new God is strait military, and if you have ever worked with or in the military you know when something needs to get done, there are no excuses for it not to get done.

The two waring factions that are fighting each other have two different powers to pray to, odd, strange, confusing. The faction to the north who will be moving south will come under our power to pray to, but that won't be for a while yet.

here's the big question I pose, how do things get done and moving when your power to pray to is different. One says do this, the other says do that, what do you do.

spanish men and women, cultures and society

You know, as I sit here and observe society and culture in the trenches per say, I have to say I love them all, there all unique in there own special ways, sure they have there cons or bad sides, but that just adds to there spice.

Black Culture

Lets take black culture, or those of African descent in the US. We were slaves for about 300 years of this countries history, and from that we formed an interesting identity. We like to look good, no matter what. Were kinda violent if provoked, which seems to be quite often. Were feared in large numbers with intelligence. We set trends, in many other societies, look at fashion and language.

Spanish Culture

I love them for they have like the strongest family structure from top to bottom. Where as the AA culture seems to lack and miss, they have it down pact. I don't know why they (ask me later) why spanish men are dogged so badly, when they will get out there in groups, work harder than anyone, come home and still have the energy to play with there kids, its pretty awesome. As far as I'm concerned there exempt from cheating. There doing there job as a human male exceptionally well.

My Africans (Nigerians mostly)

Per capita, per population, they probably are the smartest people on the planet. All they care about is education and making money with it. If you see one and there over 22, chances are they have a masters in some form of biological science, engineering field, or an MBA.

They could be the next great African Kingdom except for one thing, pride.

To have a lil is ok, to have continent full is a problem, it keeps one from really achieving, its like a self imposed restriction, self inflicted limit. I have hope for them, they will be the next great kingdom.

My Asians

My asians, my asians what are we going to do with U. I love you all for your histories and your freedoms from normal thought and patterns. From emperors, to shoguns, to rock soldiers, to ninjas. From Anime to manga, to confuzi. Love it all, they have given the world so much. Butttttttttt, and this is a big but, why do you loose your identity when you come to the US. You get absorbed or adopt other cultures and loose your own, there is absolutely nothing wrong with the one u come from, its rich, its awesome.

My Indians (those from the country of india)

One of my best friends introduced me to his culture over a decade ago and I found it to be anciently cool. I'm sure some of the things he does now they were doing thousands of years ago. My only issue with them, I can't find the spicy brown water recipe and we all know how much I love food.

The European Union

I didn't forget about them, they have given the world a lot and took even more. Its a love hate relationship that can be seen just by reading any history book. Its best to have it taught to you at a college level.

I think that covers everyone.

Woman Power

Do women really know that there body's have power.

I'll finish this thought later

Ok lets finish this thought which should be tied into the balance post that I haven't finished yet.

Women have a special power (yes I think in fantasy and manga terms) to calm storms, to will in existence things that shouldn't be. They can get to places that are impossible for me to even consider even getting into with the normal male line of thought and action. If a man were to build an empire, the woman he leaves behind, and yes there is a woman there 90% of the time, she will be able to maintain empire till she passes away.

Oh just in case you didn't catch it, yes there is a woman there helping to build the empire, most don't know it but women are driving forces that don't have to say anything, we (guys) look at them and say "she needs a house" and house in the physical building sense, but more lineage. ( I would love to carry on my Grand Fathers name, he did the damn thang).

done for now

Supportive and Offensive Rolls

My family

I have this thing about people and my family.

If your not doing anything with your life, you suck to me.

I will finish this thought later, it snowing and I have to get to bed.

My Father

My Mother divorced my father when I was 7. Till this day I can never quite place my finger on the sole reason why. In dealing with human beings, there really is never really a reason in the singular its always small multiples that lead to a larger single reason why things

happen. My father is where I get my frak it, live life philosphy (partially from my mother too, she's just genius with it though). Fundamentally my father enjoy his free time a lil to much in the eyes of other, he's a drinker, he loves his Crown and Budweiser. I guess after years of drunken behavior it tends to wear on a person and they want a change. My dad wasn't going to change and my mother needed one, so out he went, with a bit of fanfare. I guess this is where I get my single mother experiences. With out a man in the house, its 10 times harder to raise children. Both parents are needed to fulfill the balance needed to raise awesome kids, a single parent can do it, its just easier with two. I've been hell bent for years not to follow in there foot prints.

My cousins

Some of my cousins are frakin awesome, and some are not. I know we all have them in abundance. I love the one's that are doing neat and awesome things, I hide and stay away from the ones that are just headed the wrong way in life. I'm glad the ones that will see this oneday will be computer literate enough to get here, as for the ones who can't and don't, LOL, oh well.

I have a few cousins in the military, they are awesome.

I have a cousin whose a medic, he rocks.

I have one I consider my lil brother, he needs a mac and a blackberry.

I have one thats 3 years old right now, lil worried about her, her mum and grand mum aren't quite mentally where they need to be yet.

My Sister

OH Dear God My sister, what can I say, she's my opposite in every way. We aren't close like most brother and sisters groupings, due to how differently we think. She's not to loyal to those who think and do differently than she does.

My Nephew

He's an interesting lil guy, like any normal lil boy, he likes to eat, play wii, and most interesting of them all, clean. His grandmother, my mother, has corrupted him. Two days ago, he wanted a bowl of frosted mini wheats. He asked me for a bowl, I tried to say sure, before I could get the words out he was already in the process of making it himself. One minute later he was trying to pour the milk in, had to stop him there, he doesn't have the muscle control to wield a half gallon yet. He can feed himself, wow, I couldn't cut my own pancakes till I was like older, like 8 I guess. He and his cousin ,who plays up stairs, amaze me with the things they do at there age. I need to build them edutainment pc's.

My Real Friends

A characteristic of all my real friends is that

There all crazy

thee end

God has two sides

ying yang

God is Mom and Pop

I'll finish this thought later along with the update on "They need a god to cry to"

its later and I'll do "cry too" also.

Ok, a while back I had a mind blowing thought that put God in the "it makes sense to me" perspective.

In some churches, they teach the holy trinity aka Father, Son, and Holy spirit. Well lets take that concept and throw it away. Lets add in human existence, nature, ying yang (balance of things) and we get God is or has a Mom side and Dad side.

The Mom side is like any typical female mother (yes I said female mother, there are male mothers and female fathers). She nurtures, listens (prayer), gives life, you know mom stuff.

The Dad side like most fathers, takes care of the heavy lifting, building, construction, and discipline.

So when the universe was in its creation stages, She was directing while he was doing the heavy lifting. When ever some one or some group of promised people had issues, they prayed to the mom part, mom bitched to dad, and things got done, destroyed, yatta yatta. It was mom that did all the talking in the old testement, till the day she got tired of talking. Ever notice when the kids of God act up we get spanked, yep, that was the mom dad combo.

A Trinity has 3 factors, the third will be Christ, the son, yes they both got it on and had a kid. The sent him to earth to clean up a mess. He did his job and came home, promising to come back. Imagine Christ as a quater Back of the local state University football team, thats pretty much him.

Water

Water is awesome

keeps my insides functioning

makes the bags under my eyes go away (that and sleep)

Makes the amounts of sugar I put in my body actually work with instead of against my body.

It cleans me.

Water is awesome.

Mental boredom puts me to sleep

Mental boredom puts me to sleep as I sit here and blog instead of doing a certain spread sheet thats due today (don't worry it will be done).

I say this because If I were doing the spread sheet right now, I would be fighting sleep and might have a repeat of yesterday

--- some branch chief (gloria) walked by and asked if I was sleeping, she was told no, he's awake, he just doesn't have much to do (Thanks Sue C.)

So in order to truly stay awake, my mind must be active and entertained with something it likes and/or finds interesting.

Oh and food, I found out when I worked for the DOIM for the MD national guard that everyday round 10ish if I don't eat then, I'm in trouble. I will fall asleep harder due to lack of NRG harder than I would if I had a hard work out. So I must eat every 4 hours or snack, can't be heavy food, that will put me to sleep too.

A Shelly (Ashley)

My lil half pint of a bestie, lol.

I remember when she used to have the screen name "Ashley Karma Frazier", her middle name was karma cause it was that concept which used to bite her in the ass on a 3 month basis. Yes I know her that well, that I know her life cycles, which reminds me she's going to explode next month, for this month is our Birthday month.

Its not really Karma that bites her, its her decisions that really get her. She suffers there consequences in the worst way. Think best case scenario and worst case, worst seems to win, and then adds on desert to the menu and makes her pay for it.

I could go on about her tons of other awesome qualities but thats the one that poked out in my thoughts this am as I try and stay awake.

Peruvian Hottie

I have a friend, her name is Maria, yes I know a common name for a spanish chicka.

She loves life and tries to live it to the fullest every day. If we were two chemicals, our reaction when mixed would form a party of activity and lights (think lights at a club and shots of the galaxy)

Blackberry's and Iphones

I love the iphone.

I just got a blackberry, I love it also.

I can see the differences in it and how they can be useful to a certain group of people. I now see why business people love blackberry's, all the information they need to function for the day can be streamed to that or there one little device.

The iphone is made just like there larger counter parts, the iMacs. They are made for everyday people who do everyday things like listen to music, watch movies, etc. I started to sound like a mac add for a min or my old spill when I sold macs.

I can roam between both worlds, but one day I will go back to being an iphone user as soon as the iphone is available on more than just AT&T (the death star).

Thoughts on Personal Computing at home and out and about

I am a Mac user.

I have been a full time mac user since the summer of 2006 when I purchased my first ibook.

It took me a few days to scrub the windows way of doing things out of my head, but after that, it was down hill from there. Later that year, I got a job at CompUSA selling macs because of my enthusiasm for apple computers. Who smelled the God in that one.

Sean's Thoughts on Women

Women are awesome

corporate IT

one of the things that sort of bothers me about the army and IT is that its mixing old tradition with new tech or to say a new way of doing things. Imagine mixing John wayne with Justin long when your trying to get something done while getting shot at by someone. John Wayne will say a few lines then start shooting, Justin will start to bitch out like his character in Die Hard 4. Thats kind of the scene today as I sit here in my cubicle. I don't expect to be in this job for to long, unless God (both sides) have something to say about it. Gotta remember to do a blog on the sides of God.

We have the army side or our network command (net.com as I like to callem) and then we have the civi side. The army had relegated 90% of the task on this base to the civilians, which is a mistake in my opinion, but the army pay scale doesn't allow for it to keep its IT people at what they pay them so they have to go to civilians.

As civilians, things are good and bad, were a bunch of wussies who think to much, where as the army are to gun ho, where they think a little and act a lot or shoot first and ask questions later as the phrase goes.

An improvement I would love to see, would be to see my army counter parts everyday, the people that we affect on a daily basis, I would love to see them face to face. I don't do well not seeing faces and issues at the same time. I guess you could say, I'm to customer service oriented or I like face to face interaction and not email to email. Sending me and interacting via email means nothing to me, which is why I have a hard time now with what I do.

This Job, CRM (customer relations manager) was touted as something new and exciting every day. I would meet new people (duh, its a new job and new set of people) and do awesome things. Now if you know me, that wasn't what was said but what I heard, and yes I got my hopes up really really high on an imagined "what should be" position paying what I deem as ok money. My mother says its good money, which is fine too.

I paused for a min to imagine the ideal IT structure for APG (aberdeen proving grounds). It would be a huge building, 3 stories tall, white in color with a big sign reading "IT helpdesk". Why, you ask, well, white is easy to spot, and IT helpdesk is a term that just about everyone knows. The 3 levels represent the main three levels of IT today in its rawest form. They are: 1. first floor, the techs, the worker bee's, 2. Networking 3. Management. Funny thing is, also, in my head, you have to start from the bottom to make it to the top, there is no skipping, cause to be at the top you must understand the first 2 levels.

gotta remember to do an on going blog on women.
