I forgot to blog today. I didn’t forget I just got too busy. I worked in the morning, and found out that I’ve gotten a promotion at work! :-) I won’t talk about it too much, but it’s going to be either 1) more hours, 2) more money, or 3) both! :-) Don’t have final details, but I’m wicked excited! :-) Should be something more challenging and varied than what I do now! ! :-) Woot woot!

I also did a little stimulus shopping. I purchased some props for videos. I got some wicked NERD glasses and a mustache and goatee. I’ve used both in videos now, and I’m SOOOOO glad I purchased them! :-)

It’s 11:11pm. My cat just came and flopped over on me, it was very sweet. Now he’s grooming himself, and purring. Such a sweet cat boy. I need to hit the hay soon. I have to work a half day tomorrow. Which, I actually like. I was off Monday cause of my back, and this I’m short on hours. I get more monies her hour on Saturday, and it’s 4 hours max. That actually helps me get going. I am home by 1 or 2, even I do run errands (which I do need to do some of tomorrow.)

We totally got our economic stimulus money today. We got less than 900 bucks. We are going to pay the other half of our car payment, our electricity and our cable bills. Whatever is left we can use to go grocery shopping. Some stimulus, huh? I did do some shopping today - including getting some new lotions that I think will help my face. I even used coupons to save some money. I rock. I still haven’t gotten the money from that one day I did on that nanny job. I think I may have to call her. It’s two weeks tomorrow. Grr.

Two weeks today I’ll be flying home. Our flight is at like 7am, so that’ll make for an early day! :-) But I’m wicked excited! No long drive, just one quick non stop flight to KC. Hate all the bullshit you have to through to get on a plane now a days, but it’s better than a 24 hour drive. I wonder how I will film the trip. :-)

a goal for May

2008-05-01T13:33:00Z

One blog post a day! :-) Every day. I want to do trivia again, and Tuesday Tuneage! :-) Yes. One blog post every day for the month of May.

Still doing videos nearly every day. And photos every day.

Inspired by Diz.

So, I started my new job yesterday. First it was an 11 hour day, second it was a lot different than I thought it was going to be. Actually I don’t even know if I can say that. I don’t want to talk about specifics too much on the internets, but suffice to say it’s a waste of my abilities if what they want me to do is “babysit”. The money is good, and being able to have heath insurance is also good, but consistently working 11+ hours a day, basically “getting through the day” with a client with behavioral issues that include hitting and verbal abuse, with what seems like a “ignore them and they’ll go away” approach, isn’t something I want to do. I can do so much more than “babysit.” If I can take this job, make it my own, and really DO some things to help her, I think it could work out. If not - I just don’t know. Heh, I didn’t even know to clock in when I got there, and I haven’t filled out any financial info. Ugg. Just ugg.

P.s. I’m still doing my photo project. I’m doing self portraits on Saturdays.

I’ve been thinking about starting up my 365 photos project. I started it last year on April 17th, and only got about 105 days. I was doing OK with posting something nearly every day, then I broke my camera. I’ve taken a new job and I may not be able to vlog as much because of it, so I was thinking that since I take my camera with me every where I go, I might start doing that again. It’s actually kinda hard for me to go back and look at the pictures I took at the beginning of the last project - because of what was going on at the time in my life. I’d been thrust into an (unfounded, and motivated by jealously/greed) abuse investigation, and I was NOT ok. Part of me, however wrong this is, feels like if I start it up again, something bad will happen. Course that’s stupid, but I never said I was the smartest cookie in the box. That being said...or typed out/whatever...that’s just silly. Out there in black and white - wow. I like taking pictures and haven’t really since I started doing the YT thing. I need to get back to things that I love. Taking pictures has always been something i LOVED to do, and I actually miss it. I can’t beleive I’ve not uploaded a Photo to my flickr stream in like 7 months. That’s a freaking travesty. Not to mention a waste of money since I’ve paid for the pro subscription. Ok, when I say I paid for, I mean my Mama paid for. She’s awesome! :-)

Yea - I’ve decided. I am going to start it again. Its time. Now, to go and find a suitable first picture....I’m starting today. Monday April 14th 2008.

what is worth

2008-04-05T01:13:00Z

I think, for now, I’m going to keep my EE. I don’t really feel like futzing with everything and making everyone re register and all that. If I can keep my act in gear and actually BLOG and not just make Vidoes, then maybe i’ll think about it. :-)

I bet you already know this, but I made partner on YouTube. I’ve been thinking a lot about what videos I should monetize. I get to choose every time I upload a video whether I want to ad the ads to them, and I haven’t added but a few. I guess I feel like the video I am “trying to make money on” should be one that’s actually worth it. That doesn’t quite make sense the way I said it. Like - ok - take for example the video I did about giving blood. It’s called Saving Lives is Easy. I feel like I shouldn’t “try to make money” on that video since it’s of a very “charity” nature. Same with my vlogs - like - why should i try to make money off of something that it’s giving anybody anything. At least with my cooking videos, I am putting something of value out there. I guess that’s part of my problem - I don’t see the “value” in blogging. I mean it’s FUN, but that’s not value. It’s just fun. I guess I need to think about this some more. :-)

wonderings

2008-04-02T02:33:00Z

I wonder. Should I update my EE or should I change over to WP? I love WP and how easy it is to use, PLUS they offer a metric ton of awesome layouts to use. I wonder, would I blog more if I had an easy way to make my blog look awesome again? I haven’t updated this layout in, lord, I don’t know HOW long! And I’ve not got the time, with all the videos I do and WANT to do. All of you peeps? What do you use and why are you using it? And what do you think I should do? :-)

i’m trying to find a widget

2008-03-15T18:31:00Z

I’m looking for this task manager widget I used to have. I would set it for a certain interval of work vrs play. That way I work for like 20 minutes, then get to play for 5. Something like that. I can’t find it. And I’m not staying on track very well! :-) lol I am trying to blog more. I like blogging. But like I said in today’s video - things have been passing with me in a la la la la land. :-) Now that the itches are subsiding, things are looking up. ALSO MPYR is about to celebrate it’s One Year Anniversary! How COOL is that! :-)

I didn’t bail on my blog

2008-03-12T12:54:00Z

I went camping! :-) We left on Sunday afternoon, and came home last night (Tuesday.) I’m a tiny bit sunburned and my ankles and lower legs and mostly eaten by misquotes, but i’m otherwise allright. :-) We had a BLAST! There were 8 of us all together, 3 guys and 5 women, I did record (a lot) of the fire so I’m going to be making a video about that soon. I totally vegged last night, and since it was released yesterday we got the new Stargate sg1 movie - the arc of truth. We had to get it at Satan’s Five and Dime though, booo hiss! I need find better anti itch creme, The stuff I have isn’t working, and the other other stuff I found here in the house says for animal use only on it. The only thing I don’t like about camping - is the bugs! Stupid biting itchy bugs!

an epic

2008-03-08T15:21:00Z

I decided, and I’m not really sure why, to make a film of my drive to the bank, to get dinner and back. Then I took that raw footage, edited it up a bit, and put it into a three part epic movie. Still, not really sure why. But it was fun, and hopefully some if it will make you laugh. It’s about 20 minutes if add them all together - that’s not so bad! :-)

i’m cheating

2008-03-06T14:16:00Z

it’s actually Fri morning, but I’m posting this like it’s Thursday morning. I totally was writing a post, then husband came home and we started watching our shows and I got totally distracted. Whoops. I did however record TWO videos yesterday. One about The Luka Show, and one with me singing Hush Little Baby. Most of you have already seem then, so there’s no need to fully post them. They’re linked. Ok, and now that’s it’s 18 after I should have left at 15 after and I still need to blowdry my hair, i need to hit submit, logout, close and shut down. In that order ;-)
