Weekly Recap – Mostly Media

Well, it’s that time of the week again.. Time to go over what an awesome week I had (also known as building in-site links #SEOjokes)

I had a relatively busy week this week actually. Unfortunately that translated into a bunch of media type posts rather than written blog posts because, frankly, I was just too busy.

Regardless, they were some good posts, and I think you should go take a look.. like right now.

  • The week started with a snow storm… literally… and the next day, I was quick to get the wife out there shoveling… I documented the whole thing in this nifty photo.
  • Then, my ill-mannered mind tried to play obscenities in Words With Friends, which, if you’re not on it, you’re missing out. I play a mean game. Anywho, turns out the game either has a bad dictionary or it’s more polite than I thought.
  • While working on another 5X5 project, I was digging through some old video footage that I had and came across this cute video of a pig. Kind of caught my attention probably because I’ve been hounding the wife for a Silkie chicken lately. Either way, it’s cute.
  • About Tuesday sometime, I finally had to get the ball rolling, but I needed some motivation… And what do you do when you need motivation? You turn on some Tony Robbins! I found an amazing video that will get you firing on all cylinders. It’s a little long, but it’s worth every second.
  • That got me motivated enough to put my home office together after only like 2 months of living here. It’s about time too, because it’s time to start making some money. How do I plan to do that, you ask? (you asked, didn’t you?)
  • I’m going into the “we buy gold” business! I know what you’re thinking… but check it! I already found my first score, and it was a GREAT score too! That post was originally written a couple days prior to being published, but sat in a tab because I forgot to hit the “publish” button.. #rookiemove

And that, my friends, is what happened on the blog this week. There was a lot more that happened in “life”, but those will be making an appearance on the blog soon enough.

Also of note, this week’s productivity has been powered by Skrillex (DubStep)… Seriously, can’t get enough of it for some reason!

Behold, My First “Score”

Just a couple days ago, I sent out a tweet that said:

And I was serious.. I’m getting into the “gold business”..

Not that it will be too much of a stretch for me, since I’m kind of known for “finding” good deals on everything from cars to cameras… and everything in between.

But I digress. The other day I was out looking for gold and stumbled across my first score.

My office is finally starting to come around..

Even though my desk isn’t built yet, I’ve managed to concoct a somewhat presentable temporary desk, scored a good deal on a comfy office chair, and have some schtuffs to keep the orange wicker chair company.

Also of note, my Angry Birds hood that also doubles as a snowboard warmer.

Overall, i think the office is looking pretty decent. What do you think?

Want Change? Break Your Condition

I’m a pretty change-happy kinda guy. I like when things change for me. The area in which I tend to get lost, though, is directing that change and turning it into productivity.

Change is automatic. You change as you age, life changes, uncontrollable circumstances force change. It’s just something that happens.

This morning, I was surfing facebook a little before I got to work and ran across something Read more

Pig Tries to Eat My Camera!

As I was sitting at my desk about 3:03AM the other night, I happened to get a wild hair and decide to go through some old videos because my hard drive is almost full and I need to clear some space..

Well, surprisingly, there are some fun little clips in there.

Here’s one of them… It’s a pig at the renaissance festival trying to eat my camera. haha.

I always thought pigs were kinda funny.
