Ahhhh, it is the month of November....season of the Turkey! Oh, and of families, loved ones and being thankful....I almost forgot about those...hehehe! Yes folks, I'm back once again. Sorry for the long hiatus yet again, but as always, been busy, busy, busy. I've got this huuuuuge project to accomplish for work...which might take me quite some time to do. I've been even working on it on my spare time at home and such.....which I've decided, "heck, enough is enough. I need to relax on my own time". So that's exactly what I'm doing. Relaxing by typing a new entry into my Random Thoughts and updating a few other things while I'm at it. I suppose my life just revolves around computers and doing some type of designs...which I don't mind at all. Heck, I love it!

Well, for this entry, I think I'll just jabber about random things that have nothing in common. Oh wait, I think I've always done that. Anyhow, a few weeks ago, I took a trip to San Fran on a 3 day cruise with a buddy of mine. It was our first time on a cruise line so it was pretty exciting. The cruise itself was to nowhere....meaning all we did was float around in a big circle out in the middle of nowhere-sea(land). Well, maybe not literally, but something like it. It was fun nevertheless. Simply the idea of getting out and doing nothing but relaxing, swimming, hitting the casinos and clubs on the ship was more than I can ask for...especially with me busting my ass for the past few months...brrrrrr! Of course, I did get some shots, although not great ones. Then again, what can you expect.....I mean, all my choices were limited to were...the sea, the boat, the people, the sea, the boat, the people, the sea......ahhh, you get the picture; hehehe. I'll make sure to post some of them later on in my Awesome Pics section. My buddy loved the hell out of the trip...and I think cuz there were alot of gorgeous females there. I could swear his eyes were glazed over with excitement. So, safe to say, he was in female heaven with lots of eye-candy walking back and forth. I couldn't help glancing myself but in the end, my mind would always wander back to someone special......yes, yes, yes. I seem to be faithful. Well, shouldn't I be?

Hey, I finally decided to get a bed! I'm one of those "air-mattress" type of guys...or was. I've, for some reason always enjoyed sleeping on those things thinking they were quite comfortable...which they really are. But lately, I've found myself waking up on the floor with a knot on my head and a stiff back the next morning! Still drowsy...(and in pain), I'd look over at the air-bed and it would be deflated. Finally, I had enough and ran down to the nearest bed store to pick me up a nice comfy mattress set. And good Lord!! I wasn't ready for the prices! I swore I had at least 4 mini-heart attacks when I looked at the price tag. Infact, I think my left-arm went numb. And here I was driving there while thinking, "gee, it shouldn't be too expensive. I'm sure no more than about $200 or so. HA!! Boy was I waaaaaay off! I shelled out about $700 for a stinking mattress!! A MATTRESS! 700 BUCKS!! GEE-ZUZ-CHRIST!! As you can tell, I have no experience in buying a mattress since I've never had to buy one before. So there I was cutting out a check for 700 bucks while crying like a baby the whole time. The sales man had to pry the check from my fingers after I'd written it. And I think I even bawled over it all the way home and while cooking dinner. Geez! No wonder why my steak tasted salty! In the end though, on delivery day, while on slept on it for the first time, I had no regrets! It was truly a difference between that and sleeping on a "comfy" air-bed. I'll tell you what, if I ever have a girlfriend sleep on that, boooooy, she better purify her body!...joke! Joke people! Well, once again, back to Ramen noodles for the next 3 months or so.

I got yelled at from Grandma the other day. Apparently, she's been calling and leaving messages on my cellphone for days..infact, about 6 of them. So finally, she came by work and hunted me down to chew me out. She said, "How come you never return my calls anymore!? Huh? Are you too busy that you forgot about your grandma!...etc, etc, etc!". I just sunk into my seat and let her ramble on while I turned beat red from embarrassment. Well, the problem was, she was calling my "other" cellphone. Noooo, I'm not so rich that I can afford two cells. What happened was, I had purchased a new plan, which gave me a new phone and a new number. But I kept the other one for back-up...which I stopped using, thus left it on my shelf in my home office closet. As well, I could have swore that I called her to tell her of my new number...which I didn't apparently...(but I really think I did).....(I think grandma is going senile). Anyhow, after I let her boil over abit, I calmly told her that I got a new cell and number and she was probably calling the old one. And then she yelled at me some more for not giving her the new number. Siiiiiiigh. So I just took it all and gave her the new number in the end. Oh well..hehehe. Grandmas will be grandmas I suppose. So now, I go to work every morning and when I walk through the doors, all my co-workers give me the "shame finger"......the one where they rub one finger over the other and with the shame look on their face. Siiiiiiiigh, why me! Oh well. Gotta love grandma still.

I think that wraps it up for this one! I gotta do some other updates so I'll end it here and move on. Oh, and by the way. You just can't beat a grandma...ain't gonna happen.
