Bring back the afternoon Siesta

Seriously. What do you accomplish in your work day between the hours of say...2:00 - 3:00? I mean, you've just eaten lunch, your energy is focusing on digestion and if you had a turkey sandwich you are especially sleepy. I remember in High School I would always have a hard time staying awake in 6th and 7th periods. At the time I believed that Mr. Sabolis was just a terrible literature teacher Miss Smith couldn't teach me anything about calculus that I didn't already know- but now I know I was wrong. We all need a nice nap in the afternoon. Its' healthy, it's natural, it's our God given right. I'm telling you- the Latin American countries were on to something- let's follow their lead.

I haven't posted in ages...I'm trying to remember how this works. Where do I put the headline? Are headlines no more? But I really enjoy headlines...

My adventures in "IT Guy" land...

You all know how much I just HATE shameless self promotion...but just this ONE (wink, wink) time...I couldn't resist:

Watch this video...

Old times...new times.

So, apparently G4 has decided to run our old episodes of G4TV.COM. That's pretty cool, I never thought they'd do THAT. Hopefully some of you guys will tune in. On that note, here are a few things to remember:

1) This was a LONG time ago, don't judge me based on my hair or my outfits. Oh wait- they're both the exact same... still. Note to self: Time to update personal style.

2) If I bashed your favorite game (or the Xbox..heh, heh) I was young, naive and innocent. Well, at least young.

3) I am still funnier than Tina (just sayin).

Here's some new stuff I'm up to:

Go HERE  and invade :)

Blondes have more fun- or "Why Max wants to be me"

So, we all know the old phrase, "Blondes have more fun"- but could that possibly be true? Could the color of a persons hair guarantee them a better time? Well, the answer is yes. I tried being a brunette recently and let me tell you, it was all lonely nights and TV dinners for me. So, take my advice- go blonde. (note to self: insert photo later Now, this gem of wisdom and advice goes for all of you except for my new office mate Max. At least, I THINK his name is Max...who knows, it might be "Laura" soon. Here's the deal...he is new to WA. so I (being the nice and helpful person that I am) have been assisting him select some furniture items to fill his new home with. Also, because I have fabulous taste- but that is a separate issue. Anyway...cut to three days ago when I notice that Maxi had blogged about all his new purchases. See: http://thezuck.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!88F735269EF5B9B8!302.entry  and to my surprise-- he bought ALL THE SAME furniture as me. Is it just me, or do we all feel a little Single White Female (male) action going on here? I swear...if that boy goes blonde.....

Am I going to have to quit MySpace?

Ahh..I remember back in the day when I REFUSED to join Myspace (I'm very loyal) and held on tight to my Friendster...uh....friends. Clearly that didn't work out and now I, along with the rest of the world, have a myspace account. BUT...while it was fun while it lasted, I find that now on a daily basis I am spammed by "free macy's card" comments, "Look who we went to high school with" spam and LOTS of BS fake porn being sent out under my name which leads to lots of emails letting me know of said crime. The fun is fading fast and I fear all I will be left with is a faint memory of my Myspace Glory Days and the bitter taste of a virus.

Facebook here I come....

Free Stuff!

Ok, that may be a bit of desperate attempt to grab your attention but at least it's somewhat true. Granted, you can find lots of free stuff on the internet- this is something that's actually really cool.

I've recently been trying to teach a friend of mine the ins and outs of Photoshop, and it's a bit of a pain when only one of us actually has a copy of the program. So- I found Fauxto, which is sorta like a free photoshop.

It gives you alot of the same tools and functionality as Photoshop, but much easier for beginners to grasp. So, there ya go....go be artists. My work is here done.

You...

I'm heading out to the expo again, but I was wondering- how do you spend your days?

Another day....

So today I went to the E for All Expo...not much of a Microsoft presence there. BUT better than that, when I came home there was a pigeon (it was probably a robins red breast but I'm from NY and we call all birds pigeons) sitting on the ceiling fan blade. "Oh gosh!" I thought to myself, "What do I do?" So, being the animal lover that I am, I *shoo'ed* it outside. OK, bird gone, now I can get back to work. BUT- as I sit here in my office I noticed another foreign mammal pass through my sight. So when I chased it- there was some weird random cat petrified and shaking in the window. Again, I *shoo'ed* it away. Well at this point I am certain that I live in a National Geographic magazine so I can't type anymore cuz I'ma huntin' wabbits.

I'm back.

Greetings all. As many of you know I've spent the last 2 years (somewhat) neglecting this blog and focusing all my energies on my vlog . Well, no more. From now on you'll get more of me than you could have ever wanted. That is, if you ever wanted any of me to begin with.

Halloween is almost upon us. Second to Thanksgiving (for reasons I will keep private), Halloween is definitely my favorite Holiday. Each year I spend countless hours scouring websites and searching for horrific inspiration. Here are some of my prettier shots:

OK, so you get the idea, I like to play dress up. I like to dress up my pets, I like to decorate my office, I like to make my car look pretty and I even enjoy home renovations.  Sooo....why do I REFUSE to put a sticker on my laptop? Apparently I like to keep my technology clean.
