Great merciful crap!!! Why is this country so f-in stupid? The 2000 election was a complete crapfest and yet Bush gets re-elected!? Canada is looking sweeter by the day.

Relief for my hands
Mood:  a-ok
I've been having issues with my hands hurting while using regular mice and keyboards so before it gets too bad I decided to get one of these:



It's a keyboard and pointing device that should help alleviate the strain on my hands. More info: FingerWorks

Woohoo! I get my first paycheck from my new job today and it's about freakin time. I have to go pick it up from the consulting firm that got me the job because they can't do direct deposit until the second check blah blah blah. I don't care that I have to drive out to Maple Grove to get it, I just want the damn thing.

New blog, new hairstyle, still no damn job...
I decided to create a new blog. No real reason other than to do something different.

I have a new hairstyle. I used to put a little gel in my hair and put a hat on to push my hair back. So one day I decided to see how I would look if my hair was pushed forward, like a "caesar" cut, and it has stuck with me. I think I actually look a little younger and since my hair grows in all different directions this new style works much better than what I used to do. Easier, quicker, more attractive.

Last February I lost my IT job and I got part-time job at a health club for a little while. The part-time job ended up sucking major ass so I quit that one and have been focusing my efforts on getting another IT job. I keep getting contacted by recruiters and I've had a few interviews here and there but nothing solid yet and it's really pissing me off and discouraging me at the same time. Money sucks and not having it really sucks.

So here is the new blog and maybe if I'm good about it then I'll update it regularly. I certainly have a lot on my mind lately.

On a happy note, here is a kitten:
