Feeling Inspired
I needed this 4 day weekend....
I'm feeling refreshing, rejuvenated and very inspired...
Maybe, 6 months in to the year 2009 still means that there's 6 months left to make a big change. I'm realizing that as much as I thought I laid OUT those changes, I haven't. Last year I had such an extensive list from 2007 going into 2008. Very tailored, and because it was, it was executed thoroughly during 2008 making it the year I wanted it to be.
I'm taking small steps towards seeing the glass half full, as opposed to my normal state-half-empty.
I'm going to begin work on moving 'The New Jack'. The spam+robots truly=death. I've been writing in here for nearly two years, but its capabilities are being stripped by outside forces. I'm sort of working on the 'new house' before I invite everyone over for the house-warming party. I'm struggling beyond words with CSS and HTML, but hopefully when I'm done...and I'd like to set that goal at by Fourth of July, The New Jack will start to run the way I WANT it to run.
But first, off to the place where the money actually comes from to do these things....
"The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule, but to schedule your priorities." S.Covey
"The best way out of a difficulty is through it." Unknown
"We must either find a way or make one." A.Robbins

New Jack Update: Out of School Suspension
Another rough week in the bag...
I got suspended from work...and quite frankly, I've been so high strung off of it that I want to put other people in the "time out" corner themselves. As a child, I never once experienced "out of school suspension" or as my high school counterparts dubbed it, "OSS". The idea that it's happening to me now, as a 23 year old adult makes me feel like a deliqent of some sort.
...Not a feeling I'm comfortable with....
I'm also so frustrated with the rate of repair between The Significant and I, that even though I know I shouldn't be, I'm so annoyed that I almost want to give him an OSS of his own. One that's actually, not particularly just...
I didn't finish my spring cleaning either...many would beg to question by looking at the state of affairs, if I actually begun...
To top it off, as of tomorrow, I'm car-less once again...
I'm trying hard not to dictate and follow in the ways of "The Secret" and NOT say that 2009 is NOT my year and that 2008 was TOO good. I'm going to withold to my resolutions, follow "The Secret" and keep my thoughts clean...
More after a hopeful goodnight's rest, and a somewhat peaceful day at my place of employment tomorrow...

New Jack Update: Something In the Air
I don't know what it is today...maybe, I just needed the amazing weekend I had.
The month of April was a sizzling, steaming, hot mess and I didn't want to feel like May was doomed to be under the same spell. Even with Mercury in retrograde....
I feel good..
For the first time in about a solid 4 weeks, I feel good.
I'm cleaning up my surroundings to try and see if clearing some clutter will aid in keeping the zen..
Shouts to Po for the robots links..I still need your help fam..
One thing at a time...first lets start with my bedroom...maybe doing some late spring cleaning at work & then fixing this blog...

New Jack Update: Anyone Up for Adoption?
I need to move out, within the next 2 weeks or less or somehow, get adopted.
If not, this house that I live in may be in ashes by that time if my mother continues to consistently raise my blood pressure & irritate me..
But two can play that game..and it's worse that people choose to play with me when Mother's Day is 4 days away.
Oh well, I didn't start it but I'll sure as hell finish it...
...trust me...

Revisiting Quotes...
A year ago, I wrote this post, "Quote Them"
With all the happenings in the month of April and me trying REALLY hard to keep quiet and...move forward if you will, I decided to re-list them..
Trying to look at the bigger picture...

The fellow who thinks he knows it all is especially annoying to those of us who do. - Harold Coffin
It's kind of fun to do the impossible. - Walt Disney
Read over your compositions, and when you meet a passage which you think is particularly fine, strike it out.
- Samuel Johnson
He that makes haste to be rich shall not be innocent. - Proverbs (28:20)
Great works are performed not by strength but by perseverance. - Samuel Johnson
I will not condemn you for what you did yesterday, if you do it right today.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. 1 JOHN 4:18 "Young women are too critical of their looks. What makes you beautiful is feeling comfortable with yourself-and finding happiness in how you live YOUR LIFE"- Vera Wang |

New Jack Update: The Bigger Picture
Car less...
Incessantly fighting with Ma Dukes...
Dead broke....seriously...
Work drama...
I did a tarot reading on Sunday, that despite these things I'm supposed to be focusing on the "bigger picture"...
Like...
Despite the "work drama", work=money, money=fixing "car less" issue + money to host The New Jack & get all the bugs fixed from robots & spam hacking my blog..
I have to try and tack everything I do to something bigger and better as the reasoning to keep my mouth shut or not to punch someone.
It's supposed to tame the beast if you will.....
I did an OK job yesterday..I'm mean, I almost carved a smile with a knife onto my mother's face as per "The Joker" in the "Dark Knight" because she's heavily getting on my last nerve..but, I focused on the bigger picture...
I'm working...once I get my finances straight, I will move out and nothing she says or does will be remotely relevant to my existance.
That's the bigger picture....
I'm struggling though....this will be Day 2, trying to find out how I'm getting to and from work with no car..
How not to curse my mother out....
Tell myself reasons why stripping for quick off the books cash is not an option...
Watch my page views & stats drop to nothing because of spam & robots...
Tell myself I'm trying to lose 30lbs, so the fact that I'm car less and can't get to fast food is OK...
Try to not be annoyed that I can't get to The Significant..
The list just keeps going with things working against me as opposed to for me...
I'm going to try it out again....focus all day on the bigger picture...
and don't shank anyone...
