(no subject)
Yes, another entry. And you thought I was serious about not writing at length! Pah!
You know how sometimes people on your friend's list post about stuff going on in their life, and all of a sudden you think "Wait a minute? Since when are they working THERE? Since when are they dating HIM/HER? since when???" And then you wonder how you could have missed all that seemingly pretty standard information, but somehow you feel too ashamed to ask for clarification because it seems like info you *should* already know? It happens to all of us sometimes.
Please copy mine below, erase my answers putting yours in their place then post it in your journal! Please elaborate on the questions that would benefit from elaboration! One-word answers seldom help anyone out .
1. First Name: Mike
2. Age: 30
3. Location: Wichita Falls
4. Occupation: ablestmage.com admin, Target stocker
5. Partner? now accepting applications =P
6. Kids: no freakin way
7. Brothers/Sisters: 1x brother, lives with me
8. Pets: Renny, a JackRussell/Boston mix (mine). Duke, a black Lab mix (bro's)
9. List the 3-5 biggest things going on in your life:
1. Trying to find sponsors for ablestmage.com
2. Finding a good side job that doesn't wear me out
3. get enough sleep each day
4. get the house paid off so I can make plans for moving to Idaho
5. discovering the elusive career job
10) Where and for what did you go to school for? I have what amounts to a Print Journalism degree (journalism minor, English major) since the Mass Communication degree focuses on broadcasting and I wanted print only. I wanted to be a newspaper reporter, but after getting one such gig right out of college, it was somewhat decided for me that it wasn't my trade, so I spent 8 months looking for something to tide me over, took a temporary job in securty dispatching for 6.5 years, and now write for a self-starter blog with hopes to monetize it. Considering checking out Vernon for Medical Info possibilities.
11) Parents? Yes, I have some. Mom is a nurse payroll/billing person, Dad is an A/C installer (formerly a mfg.engineer for places like Howmet/Washex/Tranter). Had their 30-somethingth anniversary recently.
12) Who are some of your closest friends? Bryan, who I've known practically since infancy who just graduated film school in California and is now searching for editing gigs. Aaron and Kristin, with whom I play Halo or Settlers of Catan 2-3 times per week. Matt, a classifieds ad designer at the newspaper who is waiting to sell his house so he can move to the east coast to accept a pastor gig. Josh, an enlisted flash programmer at Shepp.AFB that I've known since HS..
