In Fear and Faith

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

The madness has begun. I spent a better part of my night last night preparing my resumé for the job search. Today I applied for about 7 jobs, and I’m sure that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I also scheduled my CT boards, for which I got audited, adding to the stress of it [...]

Uncertain Certainties

Wednesday, February 20th, 2008

Once in a while, it’s nice to know you’re appreciated. It’s nice to know you’ve done something to be proud of and sometimes you get the acknowledgement you deserve. I would like to publicly congratulate my very good friend and confidant Mark Condupa. Mark is about to see all his dreams realized.
A little background info: [...]

Valentine's Day-The aftermath

I’ve never been one to get into the spirit of Valentine’s Day. Not because I’m single, or a hater, or no fun. It’s simply because I don’t see a reason to designate a day to tell someone you love them. Love is a gift that should be given every day. I read that once [...]

What's this?! Snow?!

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

This morning I woke up to a good 2 inches of snow outside. This is nothing new for Pennsylvania, but it’s the first time this winter we’ve got more than a few snowflakes.
 As adults we rarely get snow days like we did when we were kids. In fact, I can’t remember the last time I [...]

Although this pleased me, I was also confused since I deleted my number and had not tried to reactivate it since the failed attempts this morning. So of course I log onto Twitter and reactivate my number and SUCCESS!
I am overjoyed.All [...]

Breaking up?!?

Monday, February 11th, 2008

Everyone who knows me knows how much I love Twitter. Its the perfect way of communicating things to your friends in 140 characters or less. But one of the main reasons I love Twitter so much is because I can do many things via SMS like send updates, receive friends’ updates, direct messages and so [...]

I've had it up to here

Saturday, February 9th, 2008

In the midst of all this new-found positivity, I digress and find myself having an all too familiar “Raging Bitch” day. These days usually begin with me waking up in a foul mood and continue on until I am safely asleep in my bed once again sometime later. On these days, no one is exempt [...]

Oops, its Ash Wednesday

Wednesday, February 6th, 2008

Unlike many of my Catholic buddies who went and got ashes today, I did not. I forgot (sorry mom). I decided my penance for my blunder was to give up two things instead of just the required one. So for the next 40 days I will be giving up:
-All forms of fast food (this mainly [...]
