So much to write, so little time…

Can anybody find me somebody to love
Ooh, each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
(Take a look at yourself) Take a look in the mirror and cry (and cry)
Lord what you’re doing to me (yeah yeah)
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can’t get no relief, Lord!
Somebody (somebody) ooh somebody (somebody)
Can anybody find me somebody to love ?
Yeah
I work hard (he works hard) every day of my life
I work till I ache in my bones
At the end (at the end of the day)
I take home my hard earned pay all on my own
I get down (down) on my knees (knees)
And I start to pray
Till the tears run down from my eyes
Lord somebody (somebody), ooh somebody
(Please) Can anybody find me somebody to love ?

Ok, let’s see if I can write everything on my mind in 15 minutes.  Then I have to get back to work.  Things on my mind…hmmm…

I’m not sure what to feel about my boss.  He’s just so strange and I haven’t figured him out yet.  He gives me backhanded compliments.  The other day, I couldn’t tell if he was trying to say that I was doing a good job or not.  What I came away with is that I am doing a good job, but he doesn’t want to say too much and let it go to my head, which believe me, it never would.  Then there’s the whole money situation.  UGH!  Ok, he pays me a decent amount.  That’s fine.  But I also work extra hours and especially when I’m traveling, it’s not just a normal 8 to 5 job.  Way back when I was just consulting for him, he was telling me how he pays Dino a little bit extra for each day he’s out traveling.  I was expecting the same thing for myself, but he didn’t do it for me.  Hell, he probably forgot that he had told me that.  The other day, I here him on the phone.  He’s got a loud voice and he always speaks on speaker phone.  His wife who does our accounting called him and I heard her say, she had a question about my paycheck and that’s when he picked up the phone and I only head his end of the conversation which consisted of him saying that no, he wasn’t doing that for me.  I knew what they were talking about.  I just feel like he knows I need the job and because I hadn’t had one in a while that he knows he can get away with paying me less.  And it’s probably true.  What sucks more is that I actually like my job on most days.  That’s rare.  But I don’t want to be taken advantage of.  But at the same time, I know how hard he’s worked to help me and he wasn’t sure if everything would fall into place with me but he hired me anyway.

With all the traveling I do, I decided I wanted a MP3 player.  iPods are way to expensive and really, what would I do with 30GB of space?  1GB is good and more then enough to hold enough music for me for a flight.  The iPOD shuffle is still $99 and there are others out there for the same amount of space that is much cheaper.  I’m thinking about getting the SanDisk Sansa M240 1 GB MP3 Player Silver.  Anyone know anything about it?  It looks fine to me and it’s cheaper and it looks like it will be fine for what I’m using it for.  Yesterday, I was playing around on my computer and decided that there was a ton of junk on here that I never used so I decided to uninstall them.  Well, in the process, I broke my computer.  Ok, not quite broke, but I uninstalled something related to the audio drive so I had no sound.  Since I listen to like 50% of my music on the computer, I was heart broken.  But before I called my brother to have him help me fix it, I found the disks that came with my computer and figured out how to fix it on my own!! Go me!! I think my secret ambition is to be a tech geek! 🙂  Afterall, all the guys that are in my life are all tech geeks…or at least in the computer industry in some way.

American Idol did Queen songs this past week.  I had forgotten how much I love Queen!!  CAB got me listening to them back in high school.  But I realized that I didn’t have any of their songs downloaded.  But Kaaza sucks these days and I can’t ever find anything I want.  It’s just easier actually paying to download these days especially since songs are less than a dollar everywhere.

Ok, time for me to head back to the office.  I guess I got out everything that was on my mind.
