New York, New York..
Is not where I'm at.
However, my Mother and Stepfather are enjoying themselves over the weekend in that quite little town. The occasion is my Mother's X-Mas gift a few months back. The went all that way to see "Wicked" on Broadway. I did ask them to bring me back some honest to goodness New York Cheesecake, I'll settle for a slice. And jokingly a bottle of "Pace Picante" Sauce (Because of the Irony).
Now that I think about it, I haven't traveled at all since I went to Alaska 2 years ago. Oh well, the small price to pay for having a steady job.
Well have fun in snowy New York City. Me, I get to go all the way to Hurst (next town over) and spend my time at the Dollar Cinema. Good Times.
Vox Hunt: Cube Farm
Show us your work cube or office.
Not much there, but it's mine.
Aparently, All I felt like doing was watching.
Everyday I log on here, at work and at home. Yet I could never write down anything or comment because I don't have the time or I'm to tired. But now that I'm back on "Energy Supplements", I feel like writing again. I've had plenty to write about, I still have a job. My Soccer team is on a 3 game losing streak. Every time baby Russia is in town, it's literally a Holiday Occasion. The Camaro is Back! My Sister and Mom really got into a bad argument, my Mother cried. I grew beard, but shaved it off the last weekend. And I bough a Guitar, even though I don't really know how to play it, Yet.

Thankful
Yesterday was a grim day for us here employed at Zales HQ. With the shrinking economy and other financial factors, Zales handed out a second round of layoffs. 176 people lost there jobs if I heard the numbers correctly. Thankfully I, nor anyone I work with directly was cut. I do feel sorry for those that were let go, but at the same time I'm thinking better them than me. Is that wrong? Still, I don't feel "totally safe" when it comes to my employment. And I never have since I've been here to be honest. All I can do now I guess is just keep hoping that things don't get worse and the situation with our current economy will take a turn to the positive.
Cameroon by way of Texas
Yesterday I got the email from our Team Captain that informed us that we are changing our uniform colors. Our "official" team colors were discussed right before the start of the season but we went for some temp colors to start out with because 1, we didn't get our Jerseys until the Second game. And 2, our roster/line-up was complete until the Third game.
Now that all the planets are aligned, we can implement our team colors. We will be keeping our Green Jerseys, but will be ditching the Black Shorts and Whites Socks if favor of Red Shorts and Yellow Socks. So now we will be proudly sporting the colors of the West African country (and Soccer Team) of Cameroon.
In other news, my weekly weigh in was at 195lbs, so I lost the pound I gained last week and am right back at the weight I started at. Also, in addition to upping my workout routine in the past few weeks, yesterday I implemented Leg Weight Lifting. Because just "running" was not doing enough for me.
QotD: Random Acts of Kindness Day
February 17th is Random Acts of Kindness Day. What acts of kindness have you done or plan on doing today?
Submitted by Emeree.I just bought an item from eBay yesterday and when I paid for my item with paypal, the checkout page asked if I wanted to make a small donation to the Blind Cat Rescue & Sanctuary. Of course I did, and though it was not a large amount of money, I know that I was able to make a small difference. And that made me feel pretty good.
Berney Park SC: Game 3 Result
We Won!!!!!
Final score was 4-3 against Novus F.C., putting us at 2-1. This was a very emotionally charged game as both teams were "talking the smack" with a bit of elbow throwing, tackling, and charging. Thankfully there were no red cards but some Yellows were handed out. Our team did loose a player due to injury in the 2nd Half, but it was not from a dirty play. From what I was told he (Adrian) was going for a header when either the ball or a player smashed him hard right in the nose. When I saw him coming off the field, his nose, lower face, and jersey was full of blood. He might have a broken nose but we should know for sure tomorrow.
Other than that unfortunate event, it was a good performance overall from the team. The communication and energy seemed to be up more this game. Personally I am still behind on the stamina and speed, but I am really trying to correct this. I think I'm gonna have to take a few day away from the gym and find a track to run on, because I can't seem to improve my energy levels by just running on a treadmill or elliptical.
Also I'm gonna start to work Weight Lifting with my legs to improve my lower body strength. There was some discomfort just in my left knee area toward the end of the game (instead of both as was the case for the first game), but my body overall is doing a lot better than it was the previous two weeks. I'm not as tired after the game and there really is not as much pain, just some natural fatigue. I just gotta keep pushing forward. And get a good nights sleep tonight.
So with that, Good Night everyone.
