Time to dance my little fingers over the keyboard again!

Well.... it's been a long time since I updated this but I had other things I needed to take care of. Good news... my surprise has FINALLY come into affect on the last day of the security class, which was Friday, November 12. It went, quite well, actaully. I'm sure you all are wondering what it was and why it took so long so here it is...

I got me a 1990 Pontiac Firebird! This is the car I really wanted since I was a young lad (actaully any one between 1982-1990 but this one will do too!). I'm not going to get into the specifics of how I got it and all that stuff here; that will be devoted to another page in my site comming soon!

Now, a few days after that was another surprise...
Remember about that thing I wasn't too sure about in my last blog post? Well, I have decided to go into the "Last Resort" now. Before I get into that, let me just back up a bit in my life and what has gone on since then..... *beep* *beep* *beep* *beep*

As you know, I moved down here about 5 years ago from NY. As soon as I moved down and finished up my education to get my "Good Enough Diploma," I went to the Police Academy to see about joining the it because that's what I wanted to do since I was in NY. Because I had no drivers license yet (I was taking the bus in NY all the time, no need for a lic), I couldn't join the academy so the guy there insisted I take the "Intro to Private Investigation" course. I took that and my mind got switched a bit so I ended up taking all the available PI classes and criminal justice classes to become a PI. When I finally got my license and car, I became an intern for the Public Defenders Office in Fort Pierce. During the time I was in the class doing that, I got picked, along with 2 others, to work for a dude who was opening his own agency. I agreed to do that and yadda yadda, shit hit the fan so I quit, er resigned.

Out of a whim and needing money fast because I was almost dead broke, I decided to open up the www.dragonpctraining.com business. A year later went by and I realized I didn't want to persue this computer business full time; I liked playing with PC's as a hobby, not working on them and with them. So, because money was tight too and I wanted to get back to the criminal justice-type field, I decided to take the security officer class and get a license after that and work as a security officer at night and do the PC thing during the day. When I was in the class, I realized I was the youngest dude in there and the rest were 50-80+. Yadda yadda, I thought about going into security but the pay wasn't good enough to survive and I'd rather do something where I was more active and not just "sitting at a booth or gate letting people in." So... since I am 1 credit from the CJ degree, I decided to not throw away all the time and money it took for that education and put it to use..... so.... I've been thinking and realized I have been doing everything backwards kinda so.... I'm just going to go right into Law Enforcement because I know I will defenatly like the job, I will have more than enough money to support myself ($30,000+ a year), full benefits, possition increases and stuff, different jobs in the field, and more (well, not more, but you get the idea) importantly, after working there for a few years, I will have the experience I need to get my PI license and I don't need a security license if I want to do that later on too!

So, this is going to be a big step to take in my life, although all the steps I have been taking since I have been down here have been pretty big. It is going to be a fun ride and I can't wait to start it!

I'm going to end my blog update on that note and I'll keep you guys (only 4 of you, lol!) updated with more info soon and let you know when that other page will be up, along with other stuff!

Knight,

Justin

Good News! I just saved around 11% APR on my Credit Card payment!

Welp, I decided to just forget the whole chat thing for good this time. I know I said it last time but this time is the end. Is it really worth chatting to someone from way out of state? No. Is it worth going to chat rooms and finding people near me to chat with for a chance to meet them? No. Why bother going through like 20+ girls to see if they are "real" and not "bots" in the rooms when all I need to do is just go out to Walmart or someplace and find some there? I don't know.

So, that has something to do about last knight. I'm not going to bother to leave AIM on all the time anymore to see if anyone decides to want to chat with me because I know they won't; I am always the one who has to start the conversation and when I do, I have to be the one to talk to them because if I don't, they will get pissed and bitch at me for not talking to them. Is my life that exciting where I have so much to say after I spoke to them the day before? Hell no! Why do I always have to be the one to start a conversation anyway? Why can't THEY talk to ME? When I finish the other things I want to put on my site, a page with the chat conversations I had with most girls will be posted.

I also have some good news; I received a notice from my Capital One credit card company saying I can transfer a credit card account over to my Capital One card which has a whopping $300 limit and turn it into a $2300 limit if the account I am transfering is more than my limit on the CO card, which it was. So, I did that and now, instead of paying the 17.740% rate for the amount on my Bank Of America card, I am only paying 6.9% until June '07 on the CO card and after that it will be only 12.9%, which is still pretty lower than my other ones.

More good news....
My security class ends tomorrow. Just have to take the test and that's it. I will be able to get my license after that. But there is another thing about that which I am not sure about, which I will get into later on. It's not really bad news; it's just news.

Oh, the reason why I didn't update my blog at all last week was because I helped over 6 people in the mornings and had class at night so I was drained those days and also ended up sick by the end of the week but I am doing pretty good now.

Anywho, that's all going on for now.

Later,

Justin


Well, screw it then!

I was just looking at my college site (www.IRCC.edu) to see if the "Intro to Courts" class was available this spring; it is not so I am thinking about taking the "Intro to Law Enforcement" class to get the degree finished with by the summer but I only see "Live TV' available with the instructor I want to take so far so.. I am going to wait a bit and see who will be teaching the "TBA" (To Be Announced) classes.

-- Well, I'm just not in the mood anymore to continue this blog tonight for reasons I will probably write on here tomorrow. -- Let's just say I'm pretty disgusted with someone right now.

Not enough hours in my day to update this damn thing!

WOW, have I been busy this week so far! I helped out two people today in the morning through the afternoon AND went to the security class at 5pm until around 9pm. It's like I haven't actaully been home until 10pm tonight and it's just great. I can't complain because I always bitched about wanting to stay out and not be home much so it's all good. I have someone to see tomorrow also and Friday and Thursday I will probably go back to Hutchinson Island and get back that laptop with all the spyware and viruses so I can restore everything back to a clean slate with the restore cd's which just came today. It's only close to 1:30a and I am pretty pooped. I think I'll be going to bed early tonight.

This weekend I helped my uncle unload stuff from the truck a few times because my cousin's moved back temporarily. During that process I thought I'd have to go to the emergency room again and waste another $400+ because I screwed my right arm up and couldn't bend it straight without it feeling as if my muscle was about to pop out. Lucky for me, with my own way of healing things, I managed to slowy straighten it out myself and it's all good now.

I'm waiting to see who one, ehem, won the election still. It looks like Bush but who knows. I have a feeling who it is but I don't want to ginks anything.

Anywho, that's it for tonight because I'm just about to pass out. Hopefully I will be able to do more shit with my site soon but we'll see.

Well, at least that's a load off my ass!

I wasn't going to post anything today but I just had to say I finally paid off that ticket so that's a load off my ass and I don't have to stare at it sitting next to my printer anymore. I had to hand it in by the end of this week otherwise it will be too late and I'll have my license suspended.

Now I can enjoy next month of not paying for anymore advertising except for the newspaper ad. Also, when the Money Saver people credit my checking account and give me back my $265 they owe me because I did NOT approve them of putting my ad in their magazine again because I had canceled it a month before, I will be pretty damn happy. I called them about it on Monday and I have not received credit yet so another phone call will be made tomorrow. See the shit I have to put up with? It's a bitch.

Update on the surprise.....

Because of a major necessary delay, it will probably be delayed until the beginning of next week. It shouldn't be later than the middle of next week this time. This is certain.

Justin Rocque, the Security Guard?
Class starts this comming Monday for that Security class. It's 6-10pm for two weeks. After that I can apply for a "D" Security license and get a job doing that at knight and still be a computer consultant during the day. And like I said before, if the security thing does not work out, I must resort to the last resort.

I'm going to head to bed early tonight for reasons I will probably explain tomorrow in the week ending post.

Have a great knight,

Justin

Where's my damn sign?

Yep, it's been a while again, I know. Good news is I've started to work on the Y2K+4 update. That should be done by the end of this week. It is going to be the best essay yet! ;-)
I managed to pull in a decent amount of dough last week yet.... I have nothing to show for it again. I've decided to have no more ads except for the newspaper one because that is where I have been getting most of the clients from and the other ads have been eating me dry. I wanted to try and have a go with that big surprise last week but that has to hold off until the beginning of this week for reasons I cannot disclose right now because then it won't be a BIG surprise anymore! ;-) I know, I am just full of surprises!

Unforntunatly I had to work today so I didn't get to work on that essay or anything else for that matter except get a DVD burner. I made $100 and got a free printer/scanner though so that was cool!

Yep, I got a DVD burner. I was going to hold off on that for a while but I need to back up 13GB worth of stuff from someone's old hard drive. I'd rather back the stuff up to a few 4.7GB DVD's then over 20 700MB CD-R's. I went to Best Buy to see what they had and they had a bunch of crap ones and the other good ones were out of stock I guess; I don't know if they were or not but apparently nobody came over to ask me if I needed help when I've been in the isle for 15+ minutes, yet when I don't want to be bothered by anyone they all come out of the wood work.

I ended up going to Circuit Shitty and saw a Sony one there and got it, along with a 25 spindle of DVD-R's (Yes, there were DVD+R's but I don't know the different formats yet. Mainly it's because one drive maker came out with one standard and another came along and made another and it got all confused from there but if you get a DVD+-RW/+-R or if it says dual format compatible or something, you are safe. Funny.... I just looked at the bottom of the box and it reads:

Note:
PLEASE ACT RESPONSIBLY
Before copying anything onto a DVD+R/-R (and all the other formats it listed), please make sure you are not violating copyright laws.

HA!! I'll be sure I do that! I don't want to get caught by the copyright police.

I installed the DVD drive as a slave and had the jumper on it set as "CS" (Cable Select). I turned the PC on and it did just that; went on and stood there with a "-" on the upper left part of the screen. I was like "what the hell?" I turned the PC back off and tried it again; no go. I had to unscrew the case again (I thought there would be no problems so after I installed the drive, I screwed everything back in and stuck the PC back in the desk but, lucky me, problems always arise when I do the SIMPLEST things with a PC) and take a peeksy. It looked good from my end but I changed the jumper setting to "Slave" instead of the other one and cranked the PC back up. Still no go. "What the hell is wrong now?" I muttered. I turned the PC back off and decided to change the jumper of the "Master" drive to "Master" instead of "CS." I turned the baby back on and all was good.

Now it's time to install the software for the drive. I popped in the disc it came with in the top drive (the cd-rw one) and waited for something to happen. It span and nothing popped up. It also made a funny sound so I opened the drive and then closed it again. Nothing happened so I tried opening the cd drive from "My Computer." It didn't even show the name of the cd in the drive nor did it show anything on the cd. I took the cd out again and looked at it. To my surprise.. way on the bottom of the disc it read "DVD." It's only obvious why a DVD came with the DVD drive and not a CD so I didn't even go there. I put it in the new "DVD" drive I installed and... to my nonamazement, it worked! So, where the heck is my sign? For people who are reading this and don't know what I'm talking about... read this...

There are some people that should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm stupid."
That way you wouldn't rely on them would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse me...oops, never mind. I didn't see your sign."
It's like before my wife and I moved from Bay Shore to Coram...our house was full of boxes and there was a U-Haul truck in our driveway. My neighbor comes over and says, "Hey, You moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week. Just to see how many boxes it takes.... Here's your sign."
Last summer I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his boat into the dock, I lifted up this big 'ol stringer of bass and this idiot on the dock goes, "Hey, y'all catch all them fish?" "Nope. Talked 'em into giving up..... Here's your sign."
I was watching one of those animal shows on the Discovery Channel, there was a guy inventing a shark bite suit. There's only one way to test that. "All right Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks good...They want you to jump into this pool of sharks, and you tell us if it hurts when they bite you." "Well all right....hold my sign, I don't wanna lose it"
Last week I had a flat tire, so I pulled my truck into one of these side-of-the-road gas stations, the attendant walks out, looks at my truck, looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?" I couldn't resist. I said "Nope. No, I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on me...... Here's your sign."
We were trying to sell our car about a year ago, a guy came over to the house, drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe, then goes, "Darn that's hot!" See.... If he'd been wearing his sign, I could have stopped him.


Anywho, it would be cool if I got the same amount of money as I did last week so I can pay off my one card before $300 get's dedected from it for the last installment of the shitty receipt paper ad. What a load of crock that was! I didn't realized until now I could get a LCD display for $100 more than that price! Damn! There is this whole week then next week and it's November already. Time sure is ticking! Then it's December and we all know what goes on there!

Well, I said a shit load tonight!

Time to call it a knight,

Justin

October is starting to shape up pretty good

Welp, the thing I wanted..... I just picked up tonight and it is sitting someplace right now. I won't get into the full details about it yet but it's something which made me pretty happy and it's something I have wanted practically all my life. There will DEFENETALY be a page on my site devoted to it. Soon, after I get everything straightened out with it, it will be posted on my site for the world to see! ;-) (Well, not the world, but the 4 people who actually view my blog!)

October is turning out to be ok so far.... I just hope I will be getting more people to help out some more soon because I am financially screwed. I have a feeling everything will turn out ok soon but I just need it to be SOON! I am going to take that security class next month like I said for a couple weeks and apply for a job. But....... should that class get canceled like the other one DID, I will have to resort to the... last resort, which I didn't really want to do but, right now, it's something I KNOW I can do and will be happy doing it and be financially stable.

And yes, I know.... the hurricane page is not up yet but with the shit which went on this weekend and this week.... I just haven't gotten around to it. I know I haven't been doing anything with my site in quite some time but it will be comming.... soon.

Until next time,

Justin

The straw really was in the bag!

Well, it's October now and things look like they are going to shape up (or ship out). I hope the rest of the year won't be as shitty as these past few months were.

I went to KFC yes... well, two days ago and the dude said the straw was in the bag. I went home and took all my stuff inside with me. I was getting ready and prepared to eat my KFC feast, which I haven't had since a week or so before the hurricane, and discovered there was no straw in the bag like the dude said. "What a bastard! Is it so damn hard to put a straw in the bag?" I shouted. So, I found another straw and proceeded to eat and try to enjoy my feast. I went back in my car later that day and discovered the straw on my seat. "What the heck was it doing on there when it was supposed to be in the bag?" I mumbled. I guess it fell outa da bag, biatch! Ah well, I just went on with my pitty life after that.

About the things getting back into shape...
I had a current client call me about her PC again. It was the same monitor deal as before. I looked at the pins on the monitor cable and a few were missing. I told her this may be the problem why the PC isn't detecting the monitor anymore. I went out and bought her a new Samsung monitor and came back. I unplugged the old and put in the new. Same thing happened. I was like, "well, shit on me!" I opened the case of the PC and took a peak inside and, to my horror, found a family of dust bunnies having a party in the case; it was wild in there! I looked at the graphics card and told her, because of the dust bunnies, she may need a new one because it probably overheated and blew.

Yadda Yadda... I took the PC home and did a massive clean of the inside of the case and gave the bunnies a new place to have their cake.. and eat it too. It was in the vacum! LOL! They made new friends and are now happy. So, I sucked and blew all them away and fired up the PC. After I did that, the PC has been working good again. So, apparently, the card was getting too dusty and not enough air was circulating from the fan. I had the PC on for a few hours now and it's been working pretty good now. Another job well done for the Dragon! ;-) Oh, and I charged the monitor on my already-high-card and deposited the check so I have a decent amount in the bank before it "capoo's."

Also, another good thing (yea, there's another! Isn't that just dandy?!), I went back to the IRCC site to see if the security class was available anytime soon and..... it is! Lucky me! Starting next month, I'll be taking that for a little more than a week and should be getting me a security job after that. I told my friend Bob about it too and he should be registering for it also soon. We will be in the same class together again. It should be fun. Hopefully THIS class won't get canceled!

Welp, that's enough good news for tonight!

Time for bed,

Until next time,

Justin back and better than before!

WOOOHOOOOO!!!!!!!

Just got our electric back in the house a few minutes ago! Yea baby! I'm glad we didn't have to wait 5 days like the last one. Tomorrow, I'll be looking for some honey's to bring over the crib if they have no power yet. ;-) Even though this bitch was worse, it wasn't as long as the Frances one so that's all good. I think the curfue is still in affect today so I'll be going out tomorrow and take some pics and see how many people are out there.

Welp, it's all good now and I'm glad there will be no more of this for a while longer... I hope!

Later,

Justin...... back in black, my niggas! (Well, not really in black yet because I gotta wash my dark clothes but you know!)

Saturday, September 25, 2004

Welp, here it comes again

Welp, just got word from my Grandfathers' house; electricity is out already over there. it's just a matter of time it will be over here too. The bitch didn't even land yet and the power is already out. G's! I wish the bitch was a human so I can bitch-slap the shit out of it!

Ah well, until next time, if I make it through this one.....

At least I have some good news before I hit the sack

I finished and passed that online 8hr drivers course I had to take from when I went to court. As soon as I get the certificate in the mail, I will send that baby out with a $163 money order for the citation.

Welp, it's bedtime now. Gotta wake up tomorrow and deposit a check and do some other stuff,

Knight,

Justin

PS> Notice there was no naughty words in this post! How about that! I am semi-happy but I don't know how long it will last! ;-P

"You are so selfish!"

That was a quote some girl I have been chatting with for quite some months now said to me tonight. She told me she got a new car today and I said I would probably have gotten one on Saturday but because of the hurricane, fuck it now.... along with everything else. Aparently I didn't ask her questions about her new car because I am so selfish.
Yep, the cat it out of the bag; I am trying to get a new car. It's the car I have always wanted but now because of hurricane 15, I highly doubt it will happen. It's just another thing which is just too good to be true in my shit life right now. I don't know, I guess I was just asking for too much. But with all of the unselfish things I have been doing this year and the year before that, I think I deserve something.
I guess you want some examples. Well, OK.....

Let's start back in the day when I lent a girl one of the biggest paychecks I have gotten at Shits R' Us to help her with her so-called "problem." It's been almost two years and she hasn't payed me back since, nor have I seen her again because she moved away and came back to Fl. I'm still waiting for it, biatch! Show me da god damn money! Oh, and I was driving her (and her boyfriend) places too, just like the one below!

All those times I picked up this guy who worked at Shit's who had no money to pay to get his car back from the impound and afford new tags. The dude lived on Gatlin. It's like 15mins from my house. Quite a few of the times I didn't even have to work that day but I drove him anyways because I am such an unselfish dude. Then he got fired from working at Shit's and I haven't heard from him since yet; from what I have learned from my former roomate, he now works at the mall. He said he will pay me back by taking me out to dinner sometime and give me money back for gas and all. I'm still fucking waiting, mother fucker! Where da fuck is it? Show me da money!

Or how about those time when I help those people with their PC's and give them a massive discount because they have money issues such as myself? Yea, I thought so. That doesn't sound so selfish to me, does it? Maybe I wouldn't be a poor fuck because of that?

When I'm driving, I usually tell people to pass me or to go ahead of me when there are a shit load of cars behind me. I know if I do this too, I will be getting to my destination later because they always drive so slow when they go ahead of me but, hey, this is Florida...

Fucking
Losers
ORidinary
Idiots &
Dumb
Asses

But you know what? Most of the people from here come from New York anyways, so yea!

Oh, and how about the time this week when I helped an old friend with his f'ed up PC and only charged him $50 when I could have EASILY charged him over $100? Too selfish? Maybe I should have not charged him at all?

Or those times when I help people out on the weekends and not charge them a higher price for it? Weekends are the only days I get to actaully just sit back and relax. I usually get people calling me every day at around 9AM! Man, you know I don't wake up that early. So, the weekends I like to sleep in but sometime I can't do that either.

I guess I am being selfish. I guess I am not doing enough things to help people. Maybe I should volunteer at a chirch or at those shelters since another hurricane is comming soon.

Ah well, I guess I will be going to hell for not being a nice enough dude and not getting stepped on enough like I was back when I was in public school.

Shame on me!

Welp, later... unless the next hurricane kills me this time,

Justin

You want a god damn update? YOU GOT IT!

Well, it's been a god damn while, hasn't it? Tough shit!
Want to know what was going on with my shit-filled life? OK!
Just to sum it up:
Big-ass Frances came two weeks ago and fucked shit up around here. Electricty went out for five days; some houses much longer than that (like my grandfathers). Try having no air during the summer in Fuckida for a week. Let me just say this: It sucks ass! Big Time! And if you think the nice, ice-cold (no electricity, remember? So, NO hot water!) shower would help cool you off... you are dead wrong! You freeze your ass off in the shower and after you get out, you sweat again 15mins later! Was the shower worth it? Hell no! You might as well just sit there and cool off in your hot sweat for the whole day... make that 5 days. And I won't even mention food because....... there was none. How can you cook shit with an ELECTRIC stove? You can't dipstick so don't bother thinking of an answer to that question! And going out is out of the question too because we were not aloud to leave the house until the shit was over. And I won't even mention that fucked up 8PM curfew!
So, the week before the shitcane, I had no work, during it, no work (duh!), the week after it, I was sick for a week and couldn't do shit! This week? I had work but that was barely enough to pay my bills so I had to ask my white momma again! So, here I am, when I was just starting to stablize...... a poor unfortunate again!

What am I going to do this weeken? Welp, I was on my way to get something I wanted in a LONG time and maybe FINALLY be happy with my shit-life for a while but apparently another hurricane wants to fuck up my life some MORE! SO THAT IS OUT OF THE GOD DAMN QUESTION NOW! Yep, shitcane Jeanie or Jean, whatever the bitches name is will be rolling its fat-fuck ass on in this weekend! Maybe the fat ass will miss, but I doubt it!

What is that? Hurricane 15? Could be!

Looks like my weekend will be fucked, along with the rest of the week AGAIN!

Maybe this is my sign to get the fuck out this shit state and move back to where I came from! Good ol' NY! Clark Kent had a sign. Why can't I have one?

That's your damn update for now! If you don't like it, tough shit!

Later or maybe never if I don't last this one,

Pissed to da limit again,

Justin

What's up with the damn forces?!

Well, it's hurricane time. There's a big ass one out there now ready to hit who knows where because it is going awfully slow now, which sucks ass because we all want to get it over with already. Also, I've been all week without any business calls which sucked massive ass!

I got my new barebones PC a couple days ago. I got a fwd message from a friend which was from Tiger Direct. It's a Wintergreen barebones with a case, mothboard, 2.7ghz Celeron CPU, power suppply, cd-rw drive, and floppy drive for $100 with rebates (plus shipping and tax). When I got it three days ago, I opened the case and realized it had no brain so I had to wait another day for the box to come with the brain. I ended up getting a new 17" screen at Best Buy too because I really was getting tired of that small ass 15" one. It's a big difference! So, I put the cpu and cpu fan on the motherboard and then backed up my stuff on the other hard drive in the PC then took out the one Windows was on and yadda yadda, transfered everything to the new one and installed Windows XP Service Pack 2, which has been running pretty good so far. More about this will go on my hacker page of my site soon.

I met this cool girl online who is in the same state I am finally!! She seems pretty nice so far and looks cute. Maybe I will take a ride to where she is some day and see how it goes from there. That's all I'm going to say about that now because I don't want to jinks anything.

What I'm going to finally do with my site is make the 2000+4 update essay thing, along with a few others soon. Maybe by the end of this week, depending on this shitty hurricane.

That's all that's been going on for now!

Until next time,

Justin out!

One thing I did update about my site was an "About Me" ring on the main page, which is still pending but that's pretty much it!

The Forces.... (Fart 3)

Damn, I didn't realize it's been this long since I posted something in my damn blog!

About the forces continuing...

Before the time I spoke to Rich I believe it was (I really don't remember when it was now because it's been so long and I'm kind of behind on my life updates to put in here), I was thinking about my former girlfriend (if I can call it that because, even though we were talking on the phone a lot and online and she came down for a couple days, everything after that went capoo. Well, she kinda was my girlfriend for a bit I guess but eh), in a non-emotional way, if you know what I mean. Later that day, while I was on my PC, she popped up and IM'ed me, after we haven't chatted online for over a month. We didn't talk about much and all of a sudden she sighned off without warning so that was that. A goodbye would have been nice but no. The last time she IM'ed was to beg me to send her the PJ's she forgot at my house when she was down, which is still in my drawer. I'm sure her boyfriend she is living with (yep, that's right; living with!) can buy her a new pair and more.

A week ago, I went to my favorite pizza place in Fort Pierce and saw an old friend and professor I haven't seen in more than two years! I did one of those double (mint gum) takes (one to know one) until he recognized me and I went over there and we had a nice, wholesome chat for around 10mins. He then gave me his number so I can call him whenever (probably tomorrow) so we can hang out again because it's been a long while and it's not good for 2 cool dudes to not keep in touch because a whole lot of things has been going on in our lives since then and it ain't funny!

A few day's ago, I recieved an email from my friend Cathy which was a fwd from Tiger Direct about this barebones system from Wintergreen. It comes with the case, power supply, motherboard with cpu, cd-r/w drive for $99 with rebate. I looked at it at the site and said it was time for HP to go and to just take the shit in my HP and transfer it to that other one. I know I didn't HAVE to get this but I knew if I did, I can upgrade that PC in time much better than the HP one and I'm just getting tired of using a brand named PC anyway for reasons I'm not going to get into here right now (maybe I'll make an essay on my site one of these years about it). A main reason I got it was because this will be officially my first PC I ever built on my own. I've taken apart many PC's and swapped a crap load of stuff but never really offically started from scratch like I will be doing with this one, considering a barebones PC is one which usually needs to be put together.

About my site...

I know I haven't been doing diddly squat with it but it's because I've been going to those damn chat rooms again, which is really not worth it anymore and will discussed in another essay soon (probably a year or two also! LOL!). But I have stopped doing that again and will start to update it some more with stuff I've been meaning to do for quite some time! Stay tuned for a fun ride!!

Let's see, I started this at 12:30a and it's now.. 2:25am! LOL! Took a while but I was watching TV in between and doing laundry!

Until next time,

Good knight,

Justin

The Forces That Be (Fart 2)

Going back to where I left off in the previous post to get it over with...

So, I arranged to meet with him the next day at his office to check out his PC. I went there the next day and tried to fix it to no avail. I went home to grab the stuff I forgot and as I was on my way back, he called saying he fixed it himself but we arranged for me to help him out the next day at 10AM.

I managed to get there at about 10:05AM the next day. I didn't see his car around so I called the office... no answer. I then called his cell phone... no answer but I left a message. Here I am at his office early in the morning when I'm usually enjoying a good Sunday's rest at home and he is not here. If this was going to be too early for him, he could have said so... but didn't. I just wanted to make it at 10AM so we don't spend the whole day working on the PC because Sunday is my "taking care of shit around the house" day and I'm sure he didn't want to be in his office on a Sunday anyways.

So, I went back to my car, starting to sweat my ass off because it was pretty hot outside. I waited in my car until around 10:30AM then I decided to drive around Indian River Drv for a bit because it was getting hot in heah (because da roof was on fire! Da ROOF!)! As soon as I was about to park my car... my phone rang. It was him, of course (and a horse is a horse of course, of course, justin case you didn't know that!). Appently he had a long knight and overslept. So, he appoligized and we changed the time to 5PM.

I'm sure you people out there (even though a select 3, including myself) probably don't care nor want to here the above but it kinda falls into place with what I'm about to say here..

Which I forgot since its been a few days since I wrote this now and I had it in draft. Long story short, it kinda pisses me off when I'm on time, even a little early, for someone, mostly when it's a 1/2 hour drive, and the person doesn't even show up but then calls me an hour later after I have been sweating my ass off and wasted gas for no reason. Also, when I worked with him, he always used to get pissy for me being late and not calling so.... here he goes doing the same to me, except I wasn't in his office already with the A/C like he was and I was never really more than 5mins late anyways.

He is a pretty nice guy though, albeit too nice sometimes (if not most), as am I but now I am working on decreasing my niceness (another story to come after this... way after!). I will only be nice to mostly my family and the few friends I got; that's about it!

Anywho, I am glad I left the PI Agency when I did because shit hasn't been going the way it should have but I'm sure it will be going good soon. As his friend, I do want his business to stride (my word! LOL!), as I do mine.

Anywho, enough with that subject because I got more... comming next!

Until a few minutes,

Justin

Damn those forces that be! Damn them to hell!!

I really don't know what's up with the odd forces and strange behavior in life; I really don't.

I was going to start someplace different then this but I might as well back it up a bit (beep beep beep) to about two weeks ago...

Welp, it was some day about two weeks ago (the day will dawn on me later on perhaps and maybe I'll put it here when I get it but I doubt it because I end up forgeting about doing stuff like this), I got a call at around 12:00 in the afternoon when I was in bed still, contemplating on getting up or not. I looked at my phone to see who it was and saw it was an old friend and former boss whom I have not heard from or seen in about a year.

Not knowing what he wanted and not knowing what I wanted to say to him, I let the voice mail answer it. He left a message and I listened to it. He basically stated his name and said to please call him back because he needed my help. I got out of bed and sat there wondering what it was he needed my help with and how much trouble he could possibly be in where he had to call me, after I haven't heard from him in oh so long. I ran some thoughts through my head... "could be a financial issue" ... "or it could be a PC problem he may have" "or maybe something happened to someone and he needs my help to help that other guy" "or maybe he needs me for a case." I really wasn't sure what the heck it was so I sat around for around 30 minutes thinking about returning the call or not. If I did, it might be something I don't want to deal with anymore, it might be something bad, or maybe good. But, if I didn't, it would be another one of those things which will remain in my head. An unanswered situation I had in life I could have gotten an answer to but just let it go, not knowing what the outcome of the situation would be.

It's like the times when I got a phone call on my phone and sometimes didn't answer it because it's either too early or it's an out of location number. They don't leave a message so I wonder if it was a mistake call or somebody who wanted to talk to me but just didn't want to leave a message. Most likely, it's probably those people who want to sell me advertising or health insurance or other shit I just don't give a shit about right now.

So, after careful thought, I decided, for the reasons above and good hearted faith, to return his call. It turned out he had PC problems and needed my assistance.

Ah... to be continued...

Later,

Justin

A court is in session, a verdict is in (Fart 2)

(And NO, that's not a typo!)

To continue where I left off a couple days ago, which I didn't get to, the above title was going to discuss the day I had in court.

If you were to go back to my blog, way back to here, that will give you the background 411 about it.

So, anywho, I went to court for that at the end of July (Friday) and got there by 9AM. There were around 15 or so peeps where I was and towards the front, left-hand side, there were all the FHP's. I didn't think I saw mine there so I was kinda relieved. No show, case get's desmissed.

A few people went up and discussed their case and there was this one lawyer there handling 3-5 people at a time, sat down for 10 minutes or so, then went back up and did another 5 or so. He started to piss me off.

FINALLY, at 11:50, that's right 11:55, close to four hours of sitting and listening to everyone elses' bull, I finally heard my name being called and noticed the officer already there from before hadn't move at all. SO, I knew that was the dude who pulled my ass over.

Long stort short, I pleeded not guilty to the change of address charge and guilty to the speeding charge because since I was going more than 70, it was still speeding, which I think is a load of crock...... from the crock pot.... made of stainless steel like the spokes on a bicycle wheel. So, the "Magestrate" dropped the address change, after I confused him with it a few times, but I had to still pay the ticket fine and goto 8hrs of class.

There are more things which has been happening in my life, mostly quite good but, because of time constrainsts right now, I will continue that either later tonight or tomorrow.

Later,

Justin

Not Realizing Anyone Will Actaully Read My Blog

Welp, last night was pretty interetsing.
I didn't realize, at the time, I would ever speak to that special girl again but, like I said last night, I ended up talking to her again for over an hour. Now that we are now talking again and are in good communicado, I pretty much take back what I said about the relashionship last night. Even though some of it was true, I did miss talking to her and am glad we are talking again. Considering I don't got much friends and not ONE girl to talk to at all, it is something I kind of need in my life right now. Also, she is pretty beautiful and really fun to talk to so I am pretty flattered she wants to talk to me too. So, anywho, I would still like for her to come down to Fl one day and spend more than a few days here with me (not the 2 days like with that previous girl) and get to know her more and have her watch "Knight Rider" because she had never seen it before! ;-) I know it will be pretty hard when she leaves and goes back to Indiana and I don't like LD relationships like I said but I need some excitement in my life and, for now, this seems like the only exciting thing I got comming to me.

I am going to try my hardest to not get too emotionally attached because of the stuff already noted above but I know that will be pretty hard for me considering I like people and get attached to them pretty easily but I'm working on it!

Anywho, that's pretty all I gotta say about that for now. I'll keep all yous' updated on the status of our relationship but for now it's going much smoother than before because I'm such a cool dude! ;-P

Click here for a cute pic of her

I got more stuff to update regarding my life tomorrow

Later,

Justin
