Absolutely Stupid
|
So let me tell you a story. Two Saturday's ago it was my birthday. A few of my friends and I were going to have a couple of drink, by couple I mean stay up till five AM drinking. So the night before I invited a friend of mine that I have known of well over 5 years. We were very good friends at one point and some drama insued and things were a little less than friendly for a while, but things seemed on the mend and what not.
Well on Saturday, she didn't show up, I sent a text message asking if she was coming with no response. Didn't hear from her all week, thought it was kind of odd. So I ran into her the next Friday, I was a little drunk, a friend was in town and we were doing shots. Bad idea, but....
So she comes up and tells me she is sorry she missed my birthday but that she and her boyfriend had a fight about me the night before and that he doesn't want her to be friends with me any longer. I asked if she was serious, she said yes. She said she was sorry but we can't be friends. I looked at her and told her if that is how it is, I don't need a friend like that.
So in the end I am totally blown away by the complete stupidity of the entire thing. Her boyfriend and I have no history so why he is so intimidated or insecure of me I have no idea. But why would two people in a relationship have a fight over me? I am not trying to date his girl friend. Why would he give her the him or me routine? That is just weird!!! And finally the part that upset me, she and I have been friends for a very long time, when we were fighting, she is the one that wanted to be friends again, but I guess she bought into his immaturity and told me we can't be friends. I am not sure what it accomplished...
Now, I don't know what is going on, on their side of things, but from my point of view, this is just completely stupid.
Sucks that five plus years of friendship ends like this, but that is too much drama for me and way to messed up.
People are freakin crazy!!!!Labels: Personal

Short Term Future
|
So I have been thinking about my options in the near term. What do I want to do. What have I done in the past that I can capitalize on today.
I looked back at my last couple of years and how mizerable it was. Going to work and doing a lot of stuff that turned out to be a complete waste of time. I don't look back and see much of any of it in a good light. So that is something I need to change in what I do next.
I saw a show the other day on the biography of George Lucas. In that program I saw a guy that really loves and has a passion for what he does. They showed the hard times he went through to get to where he wanted to go.
So I think I am going to keep working on my own stuff, my own company and my own direction. It means a lot of work on my part, a lot of sleepless nights and a bit of risk. I am very excited about it. I worked very hard at my last job but got nothing out of it. Lots of promises, funny how they were just as hollow as I always thought they were. This is mine, I believe in it and if I fail it is my fault.
I am really excited to do this and see what I can do. Already have a good start. Have lots of people who believe in me and in this. A few clients and a bunch of really good ideas.
Guess we will see what happens.Labels: Personal

Another Friday Night -- Update
|
|
I may have been a little rough on PCL in my last post. Everything I said is true. PCL is exactly what Scottsdale is, fake, full of itself and just a very pretentous club. It does have it's place. The art on the wall has some thought to it. The bar itself is very nicely presented and nicely layed out. The seating on the sides and the large dance floor is very cool. Not my kind of place.

Another Friday Night
|
So yesterday was my buddy Ryan's birthday. (6/6) We decided to hit Scottsdale. Started at the Pink Taco. It was cool, kind of dieing by the time we got there. We didn't really get there that late it was maybe 9:30, but I guess for there it was late. Decent prices and a few people when we were there.
After that we headed over to Drift. Met up with some other friends. Lost a bet I had made the week before with the bar tender. She said she was bad at names, but some how remembered mine, so I drank and evil bastard! Had a snowball fight with her as well. I highly recommend that place. If Carrie is your bartender tip her well! If you give her shit, expect the same in return.
After that Ryan and my buddy Randy wanted to go to PCL. I tried to resist but some guy got us in a head of the line. Not some place I wanted to be. Drinks were OK as far as price. Other than that I can't say to much good about the place. It might be the most pretentious club in the world. It screams if you don't have the cash I don't have time for you. Not impressed at all. That is why people hate Scottsdale.
After PCL we hit Sultry and had some food and water. Rob the owner is the man. Always a great time there. Hung for an hour or so and went home.
All in all a fun night.Labels: Entertainment

What I've been doing!
|
So I got a few projects in the last couple weeks. I am actually doing my own thing. It is rather exciting. I am working on a lot of new ideas. Moving the internet and building new applications for smart phones. It is very interesting.
It is also wonderful to have all the control. Don't have to answer to anyone. I love it. And I am actually making money. That is always a plus!
A short and sweet post, but just an update to let those interested know what I am doing now.Labels: Personal
