Crazy crazy sports world

Everything is going crazy this year. Everybody and their mama is on steroids. People are shooting and killing each other. Then there are multiple suicides being reported on. The crazy thing is that you figure that the majority of these people have everything to live for. Then you find out that they're miserable in real life.

I guess it just goes to show that you can't judge a book by it's cover.

I found the cutest bracelet

I've wanted to buy a charm bracelet for a while now. I've really just been procrastinating because I don't really want to pay for it. But I just reached my service level at work and I can order a gift from our company catalog. I found the cutest charm bracelet in there. It won't hold many charms but I can get just the ones I really want.

I think bracelets and charms are a good way to invest in gold. You can also go with a company like Monex that sells bullion and coins as an investment option. With the price of gold being so high right now, I'll take the gold anyway I can get it. Besides, I can always buy a ingot from Monex to hang from my bracelet.

What could be better? I'll have a charm, an investment and a conversation starter all in one piece of jewelry.

Strange neighbors

I have new neighbors and they are really weird. They don't live in my apartment building though. In fact they don't even live on my street. They live on the street behind me. But their backyard faces my livingroom so I always hear all of their parties and everything. I don't mind when they play music until it's 1am then you get tired of hearing it.

At least they stay to themselves though.

There is nothing going on in my life

I mean nothing exciting. I'm starting to feel like I need to do something drastic because my life is so boring. I don't really like to go out to clubs or anything like that but I need to get out more. When you start knowing the television schedule for repeats, you're doing pretty bad.

I guess it could be worse like it was a year and a half ago. My life was totally drama filled. Now that I think about it, boring is good.

It's a sports night for me

I love when they show good games on tv. Most of the time I don't want to see the games that they have on every week. I do have favorite teams but there are a bunch of teams that I will watch. Unfortunately for me, most of the teams that I don't want to see are who they show.

I wish I had seen the USA Soccer team match today. I couldn't believe it when I heard that they had beaten Spain. I know that was a good game. And I'm sure it's gonna be a great party tonight.

Gold is really expensive right now

I really want to add some gold to my portfolio. However I'm not sure if now is the right time to buy. The price of precious metals is pretty close to an all time high and it just keeps going higher. I've been researching companies online like Monaco to see what they're saying. They're offering certified coins for really great prices but I'm not totally ready to buy.

They specialize in rare coins which of course are more expensive. While I would feel confident that I'm getting a great coin at a great price, I'm don't have the money to shell out right now. It is nice to know that when I am ready to buy, that I've found a great company that stands behind what they sell.

I read a lot more blogs than I used to

I used to only read about 3 or 4 blogs on a semi-regular basis. Now I read about 6 blogs almost every day. They all cover a different niche though. Some are personal finance blogs, one is a crazy rant blog and then there are the sports blogs. I read so many blogs that I don't have time to update my own blog.

I just think other peoples blogs are much more interesting than mine.

I'm going crazy at work

It's so boring that it's not even funny. I have a ton of work to do but I'm still bored. It may be because I can't access the radio any more so all I have to listen to is my mp3 player which has had the same music on it since I started using it. I don't really have time to download more music because my computer is incredibly slow.

Maybe I'll get someone else to download the music for me. I can't keep zoning out at work.

Not a good way to start the day

The first thing this morning I saw one of my worse enemies. It's a really long stupid story but needless to say, we pretty much hate each other. She had to work at a alternate location for work so she caught the bus instead of paying for parking. She couldn't wait to get off of the bus and tell everyone she had run into me. She was talking smack before she even got to her stop. I just ignored her though. It was definitely too early in the morning and not a great way to start the week.

That sharp sword cuts both ways though.

I may not get to a baseball game this year

I really want to go to a Cleveland game but I don't have anyone to go with. I don't want to take that drive by myself so I may not be able to go. The only team the Pirates play that I want to see is the Phillies. They don't come to Pittsburgh until late August. The week of my birthday actually. I hope I'm at on a mini vacation at least during that time.

Hopefully I'll be able to work something out.

School is almost done

Yeah I am so happy I could do a dance. I have 1 more class and then my final exam. I'm not doing too well in this class (I probably have a mid to low C) so I want to take my time and make sure I'm well versed on the material. The last exam I had, I wasn't as prepared as I could have been. I knew this class would be hard and I only wanted a C but I'm really too close to the cut-off point for comfort.

I just have to keep telling myself that it's almost over.

Surfing my day away

I haven't really been busy at work all day. I do have work to do but I have to wait for other people to get done with their parts first since they're group projects. All I've been doing is surfing the internet.

I've found some great stuff too. I wasn't really looking for anything but I did find a great pair of earrings at holsted. It's a website that sells a lot of cutting edge jewelry that's not sold in stores. That's pretty important because it means that every piece and every look is unique. It also means that I won't walk around looking like everybody else.

Now I just have to decide which piece to buy.

Opening day

Opening day for baseball season is April 6. That's on Monday. Yeah I can't wait. I'll make sure to get all of my shopping and errands done this weekend. I'll also do my homework in advance so I can take full advantage of the first days of the season.

Ahhh, summer is almost here!

I am loving the WBC

The World Baseball Classic. The US plays Japan on Sunday. That's going to be a tough game especially since the Japanese team is the defending champs. I think we already lost one game in this round so if we lose this game, we'll be out.

I hope to have the majority of my school-work done so I can watch the game.

I need to download some music

I don't know if I want to go to the I-Tunes or Rhapsody music site. I need music for my new mp-3 player. I have a bunch of old music that I've always had. I also have music that I can burn from my personal cd collection. I still need some new music.

Instead of focusing on price, I need to see who has the better selection of music that I like.

I don't think I'm moving anytime soon

I really do want to move too. But before I can go anywhere I have to make sure I have enough money. I don't have a lot of cash available. Maybe I can go to Monex and sell some of my gold coins back to them. Well not back to them because the coins were a gift.

But Monex does buy and sell gold bullion and coins. They will also help you find a depository to house the hard assets for you if need them too. It's really a win-win situation to invest with them. Especially since the stock market is in the tank and gold is going higher every day.

TGIF

I am so glad it's Friday. I really need to go home and go to sleep. I've been falling asleep all day. I was so bored during our weekly staff meeting but my boss was looking at me because I got a "thanks for a good job" type of award.

I can't wait to go home and take a nap.

Crazy day in sports

TO got dropped by the Cowboys and A-Rod is out indefinitely! I can't believe this. The TO thing is not that bad because it's a couple of months before football starts again. But A-Rod, man that's just bad.

I hope he's not out for a long time. With the AL East coming up in the past couple of years the Yankees can't afford to have him out for any significant amount of time.

She's a lucky lady

I always people watch when we go to lunch. I saw this woman today at the restaurant with her husband. She was holding a bouquet of flowers that was so pretty. I don't know if they were wedding flowers or not but they were beautiful. If he ordered them from fiftyflowers, they ship bulk premium flowers to restaurants, events, hotels, personal flower arrangements, and any occasion that calls for flower arrangements. Her husband could have easily ordered at the restaurant for her.

I wish I had someone to give me flowers right now. And candy too. Heck while I'm wishing and hoping, he can give me a nice car. Hey I'm dreaming so I might as well dream big!

Scheduling blog time

I know I don't, how about you? I try to post once a week but sometimes that stretches into every 10 days. Other times I'll post something 5 times in one week. There really is no rhyme or reason as to why I do this. It really just depends on how busy I am.

How often do you post?
