This is a real conversation with my boss through texting, talking to him is the same way. I know it is mean, but the best part of conversations like these are when I get to prove him wrong the next second or even better, the next day when I come in. :) And now your feature presentation…
Boss:
Where is power supply for flatfold samsung monitor in conf room?
Me:Last time I saw it it was plugged into the monitor in the conference room
Boss:Nope. Pls hook up xd300 in the am. Must be in boxes from phx first
Me:No it's there. I pulled the ivga from that tc to put on the website last week.
Boss:Must be invisible
So ya… I just wowed… I wanted to freak out on him right there, but the pleasure will be in the morning when I can point out the power supply. :] I know that might sound mean, but when he knows I am right in things like this why does he taunt me? He knows I have no dumb reason to lie to him about it.

Phoenix
I took a trip down to Phoenix for work to attend a Pastors conference. That city is the bomb! If it had an ocean it would totally be home for me. I took some video while down there and plan to edit it together and post it sometime soon… maybe. haha There were so many small things and big things that made it so great. The main thing was that its a large city; I love them and I want to live in one some day. Large buildings are great to look at when far away from them and while driving down roads between them. There is such a cool feeling. Another thing I liked is how they run roads next to the freeway so you don't have to get off an exit early and hit the side roads. You just get off at one of the many ramps along the way and do down the road till you come the the road you need. I had thought that that would be cool, but never seen it being used till last week.
The best part about being down there was getting a job interview. Ya… I was down there for a job and got a job interview. lol I went into the interview and the only thing they did was sit me down in front of a mac pro and a wacom cintiq 21ux to draw two people playing on a beach. I had to do this in photoshop and painter 10. So one drawing in each of the apps fresh from white background. I knocked that out in 40 minutes which was surprising to me since that same thing would take me hours on end to complete. They really freaked out at what I did which didn't make sense to me cause I didn't think it was that great, but whatever. They said I was hired if I wanted the job, then started showing me around the place and past projects they had worked on.
This is when that crap started happening. He started showing me erotic stuff and that this is where they wanted my 'expertise' at the office. I wasn't going to have any part of that in my life so straight up I told him I would not be doing this work for him and not involved in any way. I asked if there was a way I could focus on everything else they wanted done. He was set on wanting me to do that work for him; he started fighting for me. haha The original pay was going to be $36 an hour, he upped it a few times until he stopped at $42 an hour and said that was he last offer. I turned it down and thanked him for his time. I did want to work there since that would be such a relaxing job to do, but now that I have really thought about it... I don't think I would take the job if I was asked to work on other parts of the company. Either way I don't want to support someone that does work like that and for me to work in a different branch would still support them. I'm glad I didn't take it.
Seems an out of state job is not what I am going to get currently and thinking maybe I should focus on the Boise market for options again.

7 to 0
Well that makes it official. With the seven jobs that I applied for in California, none of them want to hire for the amount that I need to live off of. That or it is only for a while then I am out of a job. Seems Cali is not where I am suppose to be as of right now. I still plan to find a way down there, but I have been asking God when I can go down, I guess that right now is not the time for me to leave Idaho. I wonder if there is something that needs to be finished here before I leave. hmmm

One of those days
Over all today was a good day, but sometimes those things happen and it just throws you over the boat. Just very frustrated right now. I will be better in a few minutes, as I don't like to stay mad long cause it is pointless. I need to choose to be happy rather then mad, not letting it take control of things over me… I will just sit here and fume for a minute. Its my own choice to let it get to me rather then stay happy; most of the time I choose to stay happy as a life choice…. I like being happy.
See? I am happy already. :) Life is good.

Olympics
Hmm so the passing thought went through my head when I was at a movie that I should try for the olympics. I talked to my former coach to see if I could still get in at the age I would be in 2016. He said it would be possible if I had the desire, talent, and money.
I definitely have the desire to do this! I had the talent when I was in gymnastics, even though I really wasn't focused on just that while there cause goofing off was way better. I think if I put all my effort and power into it I will be able to. Money is one of the problems here as it can get up to $1000 - $3000 a month when getting closer to the deadline of performance.
So there are a few concerns that I need to take into account about all this. The first and greatest thing is, what does God want me to do? Just because I really want to do it doesn't mean I need to go all out and do it. At this point in my life I want to go all out on everything and try it all, because I only have one life to live. The next thing is money, now God will provide if He wants me to do this so I won't let this be a deciding factor in itself. The last thing is I would loose close to 6 years of my social life. I know for a fact I would not be staying in Idaho for training, but I don't plan on doing that anyways, cause I would like to leave to where there are palm trees. haha Its more about I would be so busy with training that I would probably have little to no time to even call my own parents or family. They are no going to hold me back though, if I have a dream, no one nor nothing will stop me from that.
These are just a few things I need to consider, but I think I am still going to look into it anyways.

Twenty Ten
So I was going to do an elaborate posting of 2010, but I think I might just do a watered down version and move on. haha
Ok so it was epic, because early in the year I was finally able to take care of the dumb stomach problem that I had for to many years to count. It took years and family and friends to tell me to do something about it and go to the doctor. haha I am kinda stubborn when it comes to doctors. I listen better now about the doc cause I don't want to bother with something too long or let it got to far like that did. Thank you friends and family that kicked me in the butt to go get it fixed. :)
Much later that year I finished one of the biggest steps in my life. College. It kicked my butt and I kicked its butt. I pretty much failed high school…. or just didn't finish it, but with college I kicked it in gear and kept it a focus. I ended up with high honors and didn't miss a single class all the way through for two years. Ya, major change from HS. haha
Soon after that I started setting the goals that I kinda planned on doing after college. I won't list them all, but the most important ones most of you know already from talking to my and the spamming of the blog I have been doing. First off, becoming the best man I can be! This is most important and I plan to keep this through the rest of my life, for me and for others. Second was getting the body (and more) that I had in gymnastics, along with agility. Some people have noticed one or both of the changes. I want people to recognize both as that is an outwardly goal. I can always grow in both now and for the rest of my life, but I am well on my way to the goals I have set.
In a miracle stance I have noticed something interesting. I have asked God to slow or better the quality of my eyes as a faith of asking and believing that He can. I have noticed a difference over the past few months and can now see farther then I have in a long time. It is still blurry at the distance I can see, but it is 2 or 3 times farther then what I had before. This has strengthened my trust in God and (as before) even more now, that God can do anything we ask for.
There is probably more that I missed that is small or huge, but that covers what I can remember as I am typing. Its time to put to rest the last year that was so great and time to start 2011 as being the best year of my life.
