The Job Seeker’s Cry
We Are Here and We Are Ready I’ve written a lot about my personal trials, refocusing and the shifting in my thinking about the current perils of being unemployed from my perspective (and about myself on a personal level). This post today is being written for those companies throughout the U.S. that have positions posted, but seem to be stalled in their hiring; or failing to do so. By “failing to do so”, this is not meant for companies that are still on a hiring freeze or those that do not have the budget to hire another person, rather, this is meant for the companies that...

Had a couple of days of partying and fun. On Friday, May 8th, I went out to a former colleague’s birthday celebration at BJ’s Brewhouse (if you like this place, you can also find them on Facebook and become a fan). I’ve been to this place before and although I am not much of a fan of their beers (as they are a brewhouse, as noted above), I do like one of their dishes, which is their jambalaya. I like spicy food and they put a good amount of seasoning in it. It was an overall fun time, which for a few of us, ended up spilling over to the Blue Martini (a dance and lounge...

New Theme: Ocean Mist! I just completed the new update and improved look to my blog. I left the Vigilance theme… for now. When I saw this Ocean Mist theme, I knew that I had to use it. Vigilance was great, but I was impacted by the color of blue being used and wanted it for my site. I have literally been working on this for about 3 hours as I needed to find a new set of icons for my social media profiles and then learn a tiny bit of HTML code to get them to list right. I probably chose too big of a size, but for now, the icons are fine with me. The picture that I am using...

I was just reviewing some of the few sites that I go to these days and on Digg they have a link to the official Google Blog where Google is stating that they’re using goats to mow their lawn. Now, this isn’t a new thing by any means. Animals, such as goats, have always grazed off the land. But what I believe is unique about this story is that a major corporation is taking the whole “green aspect” to a new level. And with the usage of goats, they obtain a number of benefits, all of which are not fully listed here: The usage of the goats cost the same as hiring...

This past weekend was a lot more active then my previous ones of late. On Thursday, I was at the FX International Show, because a friend of mine and her husband host conventions primarily in the southeast states. Their more famous convention, which her husband has been doing for about 7 years now, is called Repticon. Now, they are starting another convention in the Science Fiction & Fantasy/Comic Book genre and will be hosting their first annual Creature Con on May 30th and 31st at the Central Florida Fair Grounds. In an effort to drum up vendor support, she needed someone to...

Ok, so quick post on the state of a few things. First, I completed my taxes last night. After a 7 hour ordeal (had to do mine and my mom’s taxes), it is done. Half of this time was me procrastinating and complaining about having to do taxes. I really do believe in the removal of the IRS and in place of it a “fair tax” only system, or hey, no taxes at all. I mean, it’s not written anywhere in the constitution about having to pay taxes on wages earned, but I digress. During the process, I was so bent out of shape on having to do it, even while I was doing...

To "run without condition" is a metaphor for doing all that I can, with all that I have; to be boundless. It's my acceptance of an unconditional spirit and thriving to move beyond the constraints of myself.
