I’m sorry.
There, I said it…and I should, which is why I did.
It’s been weeks since my last real entry. Earlier this month, I told you the reason why I hadn’t posted much at that time, but I haven’t been posting since then because I royally screwed things up trying to upgrade Wordpress.
I’m not much of a technical person. That’s why I continued to use Greymatter long after it was considered outdated. Fortunately, I know someone who can handle whatever I throw at him and fix my problems so I can continue doing what it is that I do.
Speaking of which, I have a job. Well, another job.
A few days ago, I began working for a Fortune 100 company that shall remain nameless. It initially began as a part-time job, but within my first week, Boss asked if I’d like to work full-time. I, of course, said yes, and am currently adjusting to having a day job and writing for Concrete Loop and JDakar.
So, what are you up to these days?

Working the internship, getting used to all this heat in Atlanta, getting ready to move in a couple days (again) and admiring all the sights (i.e. beautiful women) of the south.

Are you moving to another spot in Atlanta or what?
[Reply]
Yea, gotta leave Georgia Tech. The company’s not paying for housing anymore so I’m crashing at the aunt’s spot out in South Fulton County aka The Boonies until Mid-August. 10 Miles to the nearest gas station plus no internet access for 3 weeks. Color me excited.

Well, at least you have a spot and aren’t having to pay for a hotel or something like that. Gotta find the positive in every situation, you know?
No internet access, though? Wow…just wow.
[Reply]
I agree. I’m glad I’m getting the chance to stay here a few more weeks.
I said the same thing about the internet access. It’s cool though. I’m on AIM and Yahoo! on my phone 24/7 anyways, plus I’m always checking twitter on there. I guess I just have to give blogging on my phone a try. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome here I come! haha

You might also want to consider guest bloggers. They come in handy. Believe me, I should know. Haha.
I’m actually shocked that I gotta register for your site. That just lets me know how big you’ve gotten in such a short amount of time. If you are what you say you are …
Congrats on your job. btw. That’s a big deal.

It’s not mandatory or anything… Haha. I had requests for it and figured I needed to give the people what they want.
Thank ya kindly.

Glad to have you back, I’m getting back into school after a long hiatus. I sent you an email early yesterday about the CNN special.

[Reply]
Not at all. I’m looking forward to it.

Integrating the blog back into your world will come, just give your brain some time to figure out its “new normal”
