QotD: The Best Part of Waking Up

What's your morning beverage of choice?  Coffee, tea, juice?  Homemade or store-bought?

At home I usually have some store bought Orange Juice or Milk. But my workday morning beverage of choice is Monster Lo-Carb Energy Drink.  That drink gets me going, especially when I'm feeling sluggish. I love it so much that I actually have 4 cases (with 1 in the mini-fridge) of it at work.

Metallica – I’m Only Happy When It Rains

Here is a fine example of one of those odd and delightful, yet unexpected things you find on the Internet. It's a video of one of my favorite bands, Metallica performing a cover of one of my favorite songs – Garbage's "I'm Only Happy When It Rains".  Now I never thought this would be the type of song they would even consider covering. Boy was I wrong. And even more unusual (to me anyways) is that they chose to play it acoustic. And to my surprise, James and Co. did a pretty good job. Listen and enjoy.

PLAY LOUD

Reason 3,2, & 1 That My Life Will Be Better In 08 – My Niece, My Car, My Job

Howdy everyone. Where have I been? The million dollar question that no one is asking. The short answer, I got a Job. That is a steady job, and that threw me a bit off of my normal routine. More on that in a bit, but first let me quickly finish my other 2 reasons that "Life will be better In 08".

Reason 3 – The Cowboys Are Back! Seeing on how I originally started this post back at the beginning of January, The Cowboys were on Top on the NFC and a heavy favorite to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. So reason 3 was my optimism for the  Cowboys to finally go all the way this year. Well that didn't happen so you can scratch that.

Reason 3  – Russia. My new little niece. A very happy and welcome new addition to my family. My how it will be sweet to Spoil this little girl so finally I might give my Sister a taste of her own medicine.

Reason 2 – My Car. To the point, now that I have a steady job It appears that I can finally get my Car back in top condition. I've already got that laundry list of annoying little repairs I needed to get taken care of. By the end of the month my next goal is to have my car lowered. What I want in the near future: A new body kit, new paint job, and some new wheels.

Reason 1 – A Steady Job. Even though I don't consider myself to be a superstitious person, I never like to blog about things in my life that may or may not happen. Back around last Thanksgiving, I was told that a former Co-Worker of mine would be giving me a call because the company she is working for had a position open. Great. A week later I finally did get that call. The Company my friend was working for was Zales and the position that had opened up was for an "Image Retoucher" for their website. So I gave her my resume and she passed on to her Managers. It was about mid-December that I finally got a call to come in for an informal interview. A few days later I got a call back with an offer to start at the beginning of January and come in as a "Contractor", and if everything goes well I would be put on staff permanently.

So here it is, a month later and everything seems to be going fine at work and in life. My month long absence on Vox somewhat explained. Well I haven't been totally absent, thats a bit of a lie, I just never posted anything. I still stopped by quite regularly (at work no less) and read all of my "friends" posts. So I guess you could say I just stepped back and became a voyeur.
