I hit a car with my car this evening. I’m OK. My car is OK, but the hood is scratched and has a gouge in it. Feeling like a dumbass right now. And feeling lucky that it wasn’t worse. Other than that, life has been fairly pleasant lately overall. Work is going well so far.…
Making Music with Video Editing
I found this on another blog (http://creativegeneralist.blogspot.com), but I just had to share. Very cool use of video editing to create music… and the song itself isn’t bad. 🙂 –sam
First Snow
I heard that it might snow yesterday morning, but as I was driving to work I didn’t see anything. A couple of hours later, my officemate Lou tells me to look out the window. Snow! It’s not even November. Halloween hasn’t even happened yet. Snow. It was cool to watch it come down, but geez……
An Update… Oh My!
It’s been a while since an update… so here we go. and I started a Portuguese class last week. Last night was the second class. It’s a little bit easier for me for the obvious reason that a)Spanish was my first language and b)my Dad is Brazilian. Liz took French in school. It helps, but…
Games and Friends…
So I’ve been busy lately trying to meet new people locally. I figure the easiest way for me to do that is to go where the people I would want to hang out with are hanging out. For me that means going to bookstores and gaming stores. I suppose I could go to bars, but…
Say Hello…
Hi gang, just thought I would inform you all of my new cell number… 217-778-4140 If you need to get a hold of me… just call that number or display the “Sam” signal and I’ll arrive as quickly as possible in the Sammobile. 😉 –sam
Chicago… (without Peter Cetera)
I had my interview yesterday. It was quite possibly the longest interview I’ve ever had. I arrived around 10 am and learned that I wouldn’t be meeting with the General Manager until 12:30 at lunch. In the meantime, I would meet with my potential Supervisor/Manager until then. After about one hour, you find yourself reaching…
Sweet home Shampoo-Banana, where the skies are so blue…
I arrived in Shampoo-Banana yesterday afternoon, had lunch with the beautiful and talented Mrs. Lalato, put away the stuff I brought up with me and passed out on the bear chair. Speaking of the bear chair… it’s been reupholstered with fake fox fur. It looks sassy. 😉 I have the big interview with the Chicago…
Nashville!
So I somehow made it to Nashville without any problems… and in record time. Since I arrived so early, I think I’m going to take a look at downtown and maybe check out a country music show. I’m not a fan of country, but if you’re in the country music capitol of the world… you…
