Sick? Or just sick and tired?

Called in tonight at work, my whole body hurt, or was sore, not really sure, but whatever it was, I didn't like it. They had extra people still availiable, so I had one cover my sift. So here I am eating Taco Bell at 2 am, wondering what game to play or what show to watch. I have a few computers I could work on, but don't really feel like working right now. I'd rather do something relaxing. I've allready worked nearly 30 hours in 2 days and really don't feel like doing anything that requires tought.

Frank was happy with the guitar we sent him. I'm so relieved. I don't know what we would have done if he wanted to send it back. Marshal ended up with a net profit of $1,300 after he paid for the fees and gave me $200. I still have quite a few things to list on eBay, not sure when it will get done. Maybe Saturday I'll spend some time with that.

Think I'll turn on Need for Speed Underground 2. Prettly close to finishing it. I bought Call of Duty for $2.00 on eBay, shipping is of course $7.00, but that's still a good price for the game when Wal-Mart has it for $19.99. I think they have the expansion pack with it though, not sure.

Tired

Well...it's a bit before 5 pm on Thrusday, but I guess you would know that from the date and time stamp on the post. I just got home for the 2nd time today. Got to work at 11 last night, got home around 9, and went to my 2nd job around 11 am. I don't know how much longer I really want to do this 2nd job, I only work about 10 hours a week, but it's getting in the way more than helping. My home is getting ignored, my yard is looking like a jungle and I seem to be tired and angry most of the time.

I'm still working on how to really get the hang of using this thing, so if you have any suggestions don't hesitate to leave me a message. I'll post more later, gonna go eat my Taco Bell before my crunchy tacos get soft.

Yahoo!!!

Yahoo!!!! I think I got this thing to work finally. Didn't even have to read the instructions.! HA!
Can I say "Yahoo!!" ? Is that a trademark now? Did they copyright that? Should I change it to "Yippee!!!" ?

Oh well...like anyone will ever see this anyway.

Ok...time for some real posting.

A guitar that my brother in law and I sold last month finally arrived in Holland yesterday. It's a 1955 Guild X-375, looked really cool. Sold it on eBay for $1500 and change. Shipping was only $82 using Global Express. But it did take about 3 weeks. UPS said they could get it there in 3-5 days but it would be $600. Yeah right, as if. I might spend that much on shipping if it were a freaking CAR!!! They need to put down the crack pipe. They said it would take so much to mail it because of the size, not the weight. We couldn't find a guitar box large enough for the 17 inch bout, so we had to makeshift a box. It ended up being as large as a small refridgerator. EEEK.

I'll post more later.

Mark.

Hmmm

Hmm....Forgot I had this thing here. I just saw Tommy's blog a few minutes ago and it looked a lot like one I set up over a year ago, and sure enough, same website. Thought I would see if it was still here, and guess what, it is! Yeah. Now I'll be able to sleep soundly knowing that my first efforts of blog making are not erased forever.

Not quite sure yet on how to open this up to allow others to make a comment. I'm sure if I play around with it a bit, (or actually read the instructions) that I'll figure it out soon enough. Maybe even before anyone sees it.

If you know anything about these feel free to send me an email Meisenbraun@kc.rr.com or look me up on MSN Messenger marke522@hotmail.com

Welcome

Welcome to my new Blog, I just created it to find out what all the excitment is about these new programs. Perhaps Blogs have been around for years, but only recently making themselves accessable to the public. In any case, I just read about them last month in PC World and found a free one while using Google Toolbar. Not real sure yet what I'm going to use it for. It kinda looks like a forum with only one thread.

Thank you for viewing and hope you enjoyed your stay here.

Please be sure to post and say "Hi!"
