To The Metal

Got the wedding registration thing out of the way yesterday, woke up this morning at 5am to go fishing, spent a few hours at Glenmere lake in Florida, then a few more hours on the Wallkill river off of Oil City Rd.  Only managed to land a single smallmouth Bass but the weather was absolutely perfect and I”m currently reminded as to the importance of SUNSCREEN (agh).  Went out on the bike for a bit to run some errands, and now I’m parked on the couch in the A/C, watching Star Wars and just kicking back…. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhh

First, if you’re doing your job, I”m not looking over your shoulder.  I’m simply walking past, most likely to deal with someone who is NOT doing their job…

Like the person playing video games, tweeting, and running meebo through https to defeat my firewall block.

Oh wait… I can block all of that?

Guess I’m not looking over your shoulder anymore either.

Last, but certainly not least, if an external customer pisses you off, don’t copy and paste the content of their email and part of their address to your blog, that’s just stupid.

Caught this snippit off of Consumerist… essentially pointing out that the only difference between actual advil, and generic ibuprofen… is price.

I must disagree.  I prefer Advil because it tastes better.

That’s right, I said it, the main reason I prefer Advil to the CVS brand is because of the tasty candy shell.

What I really want to know is how Excedrin can get way with selling a product focusing on migraine relief that is exactly the same as plain old ordinary Excedrin… what’s the point?

My hobby for the past year or so has been baking… if I had it my way, it would be my job. I’ve got a website dedicated to it called tothecakes.com which I haven’t done much with since I first got it running since once the holidays passed, so did a majority of my business.  My area of expertise?  Creating gluten, lactose, and soy free desserts that can not be distinguished from their normal counterparts.

Tonight for the Christ Church pot luck dinner, I made a chocolate brownie cake with a hit of orange essence that had a frosting I threw together from scratch which tasted just like an orange creamsickle.  It got devoured. 🙂

Hopefully once things slow down a bit in my life, I plan to dedicate more time and effort into the baking business, but for now I’ll settle for the satisfied looks I get from people who try my confections. 🙂

Sarcasm is an art. Used sparingly, it is funny and witty. If you use it with every breath, you will sound like a petulant child and should be BEATEN SEVERELY!

I still need to export all of my attachments from the old server to this system, as well as finish moving all the links from my blogroll over. Lastly – I want to get that theme I was using copied over, I can’t recall the name but I’m hoping I can get that done this evening after work.

Riding in today, somehow an ant found its way into my helmet (rather disconcerting since it was hanging on my bedroom door previously), so all of a sudden I’m seeing this creature the size of a runaway Toyota popping out and walking around inside my facemask. Still can’t find my gloves either. Yesterday I wore my isotoner driving gloves – which were too !@#$ing hot… Today I’m wearing my Weider workout gloves. With temps rumored to hit 3 digits this afternoon, quite the day to be out on the bike.

Hoping this afternoon to crank out some gluten-free brownies with orange essence in them for the pot luck at church tonight, we’ll see!

Or not…. couldn’t find a more inventive title for this post considering its 11pm and I’m absolutely STUFFED (Italian Villa Food Coma!!!).

Much has changed in the past year since my last update on this blog.  For starters, I finally did find that new apartment.  I currently have a nice and legal 2 bedroom apartment in Edenville, NY…. which I am sharing with my dream girl (who happens to be my fiancee!!!) and her two wonderful kids! 🙂

Lets see… sold the truck, bought a motorcycle, still work at the same job – (am currently MANAGEMENT, crazy, right?)

Anyhow, I finally got the blogging bug back, simply put – facebook status updates weren’t cutting it, and I got a little tired of all the bleeding heart BULLSHIT.  I needed to bring back a warm, comfortable place where I can share my opinions with the world and not care one bit whether some pinko commie liberal has a problem with it.

Yep, that’s right folks, I’m back…  if you don’t like it – promptly box your shit back up and return it to the store, cos you’re too stupid be using it to read this page. 😉
