Ok Super Crazy Long Post . . . .

Ok so this post is long overdue . . . Since I've been to Denver and back . . . I finally got to meet Isaiahs wife Helena . . . shes kewl . . . . Isaiah and her both work @ Radioshack . . . . they recently celebrated their 2 yr aniversary . . . for free, no kidding . . . they stayed @ a hotel that had a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee . . . and they messed up on the breakfast . . . so Isaiah and Helena were comped for the whole nites stay . . . anyways . . . . I had alot of fun there in Denver . . . I won a couple hundred bux that I spent while I was there on food, gas, and entertainment . . . of course I brought my own movies and games to play and watch . . . we also rented a kewl movie . . . The Game . . . that movies a Dave movie as it really makes you start to think about things . . . I left a couple of my DVDs there with Isaiah . . . and also left Kingdom Hearts for the PS2 there for Him and Helena to play . . . although I think Isaiahs favorite game to play while I was there was Soul Calibur 2 . . . I went to this place called Fat City . . . it was awesome . . . I went there with Helena . . . . we played like 5 rounds of Bowling . . . for only a couple of dollars a game . . . it was kewl . . . and the arcade there was awesome . . . it made me miss my old job in the arcade . . . . also I spent time with Isaiahs neighbor . . . Patricia . . . Isaiah kinda despises me for this . . . cuz one day I took off with her . . . cuz he didnt want to do anything . . . I cant say I dont blame him . . . its kinda my fault . . . I kinda had a crush on Patricia . . . . she had a wonderful 3 yr old son . . . and during my stay @ Isaiahs . . . she had another baby . . . she was only in the hospital for like 30 mins or so . . . man can she pop out a baby . . . lol . . . . anyways . . . . one day me and her and her 3 yr old son . . . went around Denver . . . we went to a mall and also a place called Nickel City . . . a nickel arcade . . . it was fun . . .
well this was all back in August around Isaiahs b-day . . . . a couple of months later . . . fast forward to October . . . and its my moms b-day . . . and we are @ Grandpas . . . I had so much time visiting my Grandpa and Aunt and Cousins in Gresham . . . I got to ride the Monorail/Train . . . it was fun . . . its a great way to get around Portland . . . I got to check out Lloyd Center and Clackamas Mall . . . they are huge . . . . I even got to check out a Fred Meyers . . . since I had never been in one before . . . it was alright . . . not too impressive though . . . my store has all the same stuff . . . . anyways coming home from PDX . . . they practically strip searched me . . . Oh yeah . . . btw . . . I got a new laptop not too long ago . . . In fact Im writing this whole thing up on it . . . . I took it w/ me to Portland . . . Teddy . . . my cousin . . . had alot of fun w/ it . . . He also had too much fun w/ my Digital Recording Camera . . . he accidentally broke that . . . . its ok though . . . I got it fixed . . . needless to say . . . I didnt let him use my stuff after that though . . . I figured out how to wire my cell phone to my laptop and get internet anywhere I go . . . . and @ nite time its free . . . Andy . . my other cousin enjoyed using the internet on my laptop cuz it gets connected @ speeds almost double what dial up is . . . 115 Kbps . . . which is much faster than what they have . . . oh yeah . . . I forgot to mention that b4 I went to Portland I had my buddy Adam fly up here to visit me and my bro and dad . . . . we had fun while he was here . . . argued a lil bit . . but no big . . . . Adam got some awesome books . . . so did I . . . lol . . . We went to Primos Pizza . . for all you can eat a few times . . . Adam liked that cuz it was cheap . . . . food here is cheaper too . . . and so is the water . . . or rather bottled water . . . he like it here cuz its cheaper to live . . . . alas he had to go home after spending a week up here though . . . I remember one day we played BurnOut 3 Takedown for like 6 hrs straight . . . . it was awesome . . . and then one time there was a blackout while he was up here . . . I was like . . bored . . . and wanted to build a back up power system . . . my dad had power though . . . he always does . . . Adam just was like . . I'll read a book . . . . now to fast forward to the present . . . its one day b4 halloween . . . I have tomorrow off . . .

Been Awhile Since My Last Post

Hey everyone sorry its been awhile since my last post . . . I've been keeping busy these last couple of weeks . . . been spending my days off over @ my sisters house hanging out with my nieces . . . I got my niece a 128 Meg Memory Card for the Game Cube . . . she has enough memory to store as many games as she needs now . . . with 1919 blocks of memory to use she'll not fill that up soon . . . I also got her a game for the system . . . It was Mario Sunshine . . . it's funny I purchased it from GameStop . . . the first copy of the game had no scratches on it . . . but would not read in the Game Cube . . . we took it back and exchanged it and the new copy had some scratches but works fine . . . She got a game called "The Urbs" . . . its the Sims in the City . . . . anyways . . . I still haven't gotten off my butt and worked on my webpage for my domain yet . . .

I also watched this other movie I rented from Blockbuster the other day . . . it was called "Thirteen" . . . man . . . that movie is intense . . . it deals with some serious issues . . . Its every parents worst nightmare . . . but I think it makes a great movie to sit down and discuss things like sex, alcohol, drugs . . . . this movie covers it all . . . I liked it so much I picked up the movie from GameStop . . . I got a couple of games with it while I was there too . . . they had a buy 2 get 1 free deal going on in the store . . . . I got me a new toy last week to play with . . . it was the last one Wal-Mart had too . . . its an all digital camcorder . . . it records to Compact Flash Memory . . . this thing is kewl I can record like 30 minutes on it no problem . . . and I can take 5 Megapixel pictures with it too . . . also this thing doubles as a webcam . . . so I got like 3 things in 1 . . . . its awesome . . . well . . .

Its Been Awhile . . . .

Well I havent posted for awhile but alot has happened . . . I'll start with explaining what happened Saturday night . . . or rather Sunday morning as I tried to leave work . . . . here's the situation . . . I've been told over and over again to work my scheduled shift at work . . . I was already running late . . . and a bale needed to be made . . . I had less than half a cart of cardboard . . . so I figured it was time to go home . . . well while I was cashing in a can at the redemption machine out front of the store JR rushes out and tells me I have to clock back in and finish my work . . . and that he was giving me a verbal . . . I told him . . . I didnt think he could talk to me that way when I was off the clock . . . and he said fine just go home and we'll talk about this in the office . . . well to cover my butt I did try and clock back in . . . as I was told . . . and the time clock would not let me . . . so I picked up a few things and waited around to see if Co-Manager Sherri might come in that day . . . I waited for about 1 hr . . . she didnt show so I went home . . . she was however there on Sunday Nite . . . so I got a chance to talk to her and tell her how worried I was that JR was going to try and get me terminated over this . . . I admitted to having made a mistake and told her I know now that the right thing to do would have been to make the bale and get rid of my cardboard and then go home . . . but I tell you what . . . from this point forward . . . I am not longer going to cut any overtime for them . . . If I stay they can pay me for it . . . anyways . . . However I did stay to help out Gary on Monday morning . . and he politely asked me to come in @ 10:45 on Wednesday night . . . I told him out of respect I stayed for him and I'll come in later cuz I appreciate him . . . unlike some others . . LOL . . . . anyways Sherri now knows what happened and so does Gary . . . I know I still am gonna have to face JR and I want William to know what happened too . . . Im goin' to ask them both how a coaching will affect my ability to move forward with the company . . . and explain to them both that I want an Career out of Walmart not just a job . . . . This incident is only a bump in the road . . . and I'll only become a better person from it . . :) . . . . I went out to breakfast the other day with my Dad . . . we went to Dennys . . . . it was kewl . . . and yesterday . . . Dad took Me, My bro, and My Sister and her kids to lunch . . . we had 2 nachos platters and 2 sampler platters . . . we went to DJs . . . my dad had a 25 dollar gift certificate from the owner . . . well 25 bux covered the whole meal . . . and we left a 5 dollar tip . . . so we all had a good meal . . later on the kidos came over to my house . . . by this time I had been up all day . . and all nite and all day again . . . so I let them play on the computer . . . or internet rather . . . and I passed out on the couch . . . well thats about all I got for right now . . .
Long entry this time . . . later . . . .

Hello Readers . . .

Alright . . . so I got a couple of things to talk about today . . . In recent news . . . Yesterday . . . Terri Schiavo . . . she died yesterday . . . . I've already discussed this matter with a few ppl . . . my thoughts are . . . well first off Im glad its all over . . . Im glad that she has moved on to a better place . . . I don't really agree with the way she went though . . . I think its rather inhumane to have someone die by starvation . . . . without food or water . . . anyways moving on to better news . . . Google has done it again, GMail is now offering 2 Gigs of Mail . . . and its still free . . . . this doubles the capacity of the previous 1 Gig account . . . They are also adding many new features to their GMail account services . . . My thoughts . . . . 2 things really . . . . first off if they could double the 1 Gig account size . . . y do they have to keep the 10 Meg filesize cap on . . . why couldnt they increase it to 20 Megs . . . . second . . . i wonder how long they will be able to keep their services free . . . . sooner or later I could see them coming up with a pay service . . . just like everyone else does . . . . all these upgrades cost alot of money especially when you are on a scale as large as their customer base . . . . anyways . . . . for now . . . I'll continue to enjoy GMail for free . . . LOL . . . btw . . . I think Google is a great leader in invovation . . . . they offer many great services . . . . and continue to be inovative by offering new products and services . . . Yahoo is right behind Google . . . They are amazing too . . . . anyways enough of my random mumblings for today . . . until next post . . . God Bless . . . .

What a difference a few days can make . . .

Well I'll start off my tale of the last few days by starting on Saturday night . . . First off . . . when I went to work . . Julie . . . my co-worker . . . who will be quitting tomorrow . . . asked me if I would like to go to church sometime . . . I like an idiot said sure y not . . . Sunday morning of course being Easter . . . so I was basically convinced into goin' to church Sunday morning . . . . well that was ok . . but I really didnt want to go . . . I spent all night tryin' to figure out how was I goin' to get out of going to church Sunday morning . . . well at the end of the nght she gave me her phone number and told me to call her around 9 AM if I couldnt get a ride to church . . . I somehow lost her number before I even got home . . . so I figured its ok . . I'll just tell her I lost her number . . . and that I was sorry . . . but then around 9:15 AM . . . I get a call from her . . . saying that she sent someone out to pick me up . . . so she basically had gotten me a ride . . . . I told her politely as I could that I wasnt ready and had decided not to go . . . she didnt seem too upset . . but I feel bad that she went through all the trouble of getting me a ride when I didnt want to go . . . anyways . . . I thought it strange that she called me considering I never gave her my number . . . I think she got it from work . . . anyways . . thats kewl . . . well Sunday night I told her again that I was really sorry . . . I wasnt sorry so much for not goin' . . as I was for her goin' through all that trouble tryin' to get me a ride . . LOL . . . . anyways . . I can say this for her . . . . she at least asked me to go and even tried to get me a ride . . . which is more than anyone else has done for me since I moved up here . . . On to Sunday morning . . . . I slept in Sunday morning . . . and when I got up around 3 PM or so . . . My dad said he was goin' over to his Ex wifes house . . . and asked me if I wanted to go . . . I said sure . . . I need to get out more . . . . so we went over there . . and Chris(My Sister) and the kids(hers) where there . . . the kids got to do an Easter Egg hunt inside the house . . . it was kewl . . . I followed them around and picked up the eggs they left behind . . . but I tell you what for the most part they cleaned out the place . . . I got about a dozen eggs . . . and they had buckets full . . . LOL . . . . anyways . . . . then Monday . . . after work . . . I stayed up almost all day . . . my dad took us over to my other Sister's place . . . out in Caldwell . . . she needed to pick up some food . . . so we went around and got some . . . . I got to see my Sister(Teresa) for the first time since her birthday party . . . which was around the middle of Feb. . . . at the end of the day before coming back home we(Me, Dad, and Teresa) stopped at Wendy's . . . . I ordered a Baked Potato, 5 Pc chicken nuggets, and a side salad . . . Dad had 2 baked potatoes . . . and Teresa had a cheese burger and fries . . . . she was so happy . . . I was glad to see my sis happy . . . anyways . . . so when we got home I crashed . . . and I crashed hard . . . I got about 12 hrs of sleep then . . . and today I went over to visit my Sister Chris. She also came over to my house today . . . when she went to work she left the kids here w/ me . . . . they played on the computer . . . and then we watched American Idol . . . after that we had dinner . . . I cant believe I actually ate at the dining table . . . . anyways . . . after that some of us watched a movie and some of us were looking at pictures I had taken . . . Chris decided it was time for them to leave around 9:45 PM . . . after that I got on the computer . . . and here I am right now writing all of this down . . . this has gotten very long . . . so I'll end now . . . . come back and read more on the adventures of Dave and his family . . if you want to . . . Later all . . .
