Keeping the Blog going

After this mornings fit of madness I definitely gotta use this space in a somewhat constructive manner. First though I'd like to cover yesterday.

Work wise yesterday wasn't too bad, pretty much listen to Harry Potter and studied some A+. Recently the application I use to perform all my work crapped out so I'm left trying to think of every means to get the typically day to day work done with the assistance of co-workers, fun stuff. After work came back home played around on the Warcraft PTRs then Tyler came over for some Mario Tennis and we got stomped on for several hours. Didn't really hit the bed till 3ish though helped out John with configuring some Warcraft macros. As interesting as the PTR is currently I really can't see myself getting back into it. Just doesn't excite me like it use to. The new is interesting sure but the actually game kind of meh about it. Sort of like how some people play Starcraft and follow it like a real sport but don't really play it. More fun to watch then do kind of like a toddler on a run away go-kart.

So woke up this morning and seeing how I've had 8 hours of sleep or so in the past 2 days figured it best to work from home today. Definitely glad I did. Was inquired by my manager what my workload looked like for the day (yay redundancy...to clarify she asked me the same question today as yesterday...notes people take them if you can't remember!) , had a requester come back about the information they requested, and another phone call with a decline. The whole resume process reminds me of the whole situation where you ask a girl out and they just say they want to be friends. Unfortunately I never went through that so having people call me then take a poop on me is kind of a bummer. Grab a cup of coffee and decline a resume, that'll boost my spirits. Have to admit though its given me some insight as to what people are looking for, primarily certifications. As a result I'm probably going to spend more of my time locked in my room reading as this endless cycle of silly really needs to come to an end.

So pretty much at this point I have to make some choices. I'm reminded of that shirt that has 3 pictures and it says 'choose 2' one is a guy sleep, another is a guy playing a game, and the last one is a guy socializing with some friends. Its something like that and I can't recall exactly what it was. In either trying to manage a social life, keeping up with the latest gaming trends, studying along with work with the stress of work is starting to press my patience to a thin point. That on top of the guy that called me this morning in regards to my resume pretty much said flat out "I would get those certifications as soon as possible, it'll definitely make you more viable in the market" in a paraphrased sense. That in a way was kind of an eye opener because basically within the last 2 months I've been told that 2 times which is more than enough for me to actually push myself a bit harder with it.

Think I'm done for now thoughts are a bit cluttered but don't want to type out everything as it may take more time then I have allowed. Will probably provide an update tonight with my feedback when my mentality is a bit less hostile / volatile.
