I'm already feeling sleepy but something tells me that if I don't go to sleep right now I'm probably going to stay up much later than I want to... I shall never learn.
Anywho the past 2 days haven't been too shabby. Work wise they've been quite busy making sure I tie as many lose ends as possible before my departure. Hopefully I can work at home Thursday but that's going to be playing by ear at the moment. If I have to be in the office I don't mind but I'd much rather be here relaxing and working without the random person walking over asking questions and such. Not much else I can say about work.
Aside from that the evenings have been focused on cleaning mostly. Have to admit its been quite sometime sense I've been this excited about a birthday gathering. Primarily due to the size of it as I haven't had one of this magnitude for a long time. 2 years ago only had about 7-8 people over and last year had about 4 this year... its like... 15-16 individuals. The whole part of thinking about room limitations has crossed my mind a couple times but overall we should be fine. My dad's got a reasonable amount of fold able chairs and I have my tab which will be put to good use. Cleaning wise the living room, and the 'lan' room are done. Today I've taken care of the kitchen and my room the only things remaining are the bathrooms.
Unfortunately I am running out of things to clean so I might spend the last 2 days just studying in my room or playing Dead Space...seems like the most reasonable course of action. The 'lan' room might be more effective for playing Dead Space...sadly I'm starting to think / consider upgrading my monitor...its not making games look as pretty as I want to and that's making mee feel pretty shallow :(.
That's about it for now, b-day coming up, cleaning, Dead Space and studies...I'm good to go...oh ya and work :). Later all!

Quick reference
No blog as of tonight will update it tomorrow just making a quick reference for myself for this week (would use facebook 'notes' but figure that posting now would at least remind me to blog later. List as follows:
1) Keep house *spotless* on a daily basis to ensure maximum cleanness for event.
2) Study A+ practice test each night and choose a chapter to re-read each night.
3) Work as maliciously as possible to make sure there's no work to worry about next week.
4) Leave at least a 10+ hour buffer for sleep (not including tonight already doomed).
5) Finalize 'the list'.
That's about it for now need the rest. Nites.

Mid Week Update
So for the most part this week I've been kind of sick so not a lot has happen so far. Works has actually been pretty slow for the most part and already looking forward to the Holiday weekend. No real plans except to see family down in North Carolina but that's about it. No real plans for the weekend a friend from NY is coming down so were going to hang out. I'm just looking forward to taking some time off from work. Haven't taken any actually time off sense...well Magfest this year so definitely overdue. Every other occasion has revolved around the fact that I either have a 3 day weekend or just deal with having to go back to work on Monday. In either case a week ago I'm sure I can endure it.
Though this past week its not shabby Monday I just rested for the most part, no real highlights. Tuesday I hung out with a few friends and tried out Chornonauts and Fluxx 4.0. Chornonauts has a very fluxx feel but the initially instructions are a bit more complex. The default set of cards are pretty much the same but there's 3 ways of winning instead of one. Equally whenever you effect one date it ripples through out time and effects several other timelines as well. Its a bit difficult to explain but after a turn or two it suddenly makes sense. Fluxx 4.0...somehow they improved Fluxx...not sure how but they did it. So basically think negative keepers and more rules that don't conflict with one another. In either case I'm looking forward to more sessions of each.
After everyone left talk to dean about his financial situation which went on for a bit and had some distractions but definitely went in the right direction. Went to bed kind of like but not a huge deal. Not to mention kind of crashing a bit late tonight but hopefully it doesn't effect me too greatly. Anywho before I carry on further off to bed.
Nite all.

Weekend Update
Overall this weekend went pretty well, there was some minor sickness involved but beyond that cant' complain. Friday worked at the office and was feeling a bit sick but it really didn't hit me till that evening which resulted in not feeling well at all. Spent part of the evening up in my room studying for the A+ exam and the remainder was spent playing some games.
Saturday was partly the same however I took about a 3 hour nap which is something I hadn't done in a long time. By the end of it I was feeling a whole lot better. Than and soup definitely helped as well. At some point I did play Sol Survivor along with watching some Honcast. The last part of the evening was spent with of course more studying... think there's a pattern here.
As for today woke up at around 1ish. Went downstairs and relaxed for a bit before watching more Honcast. The Gosugamer finals are almost complete so I've been following it more closely as of lately. Had pizza for lunch and once the Honcast was done started working on Borderlands. Just finished getting my Hunter ready for Knoxx now and was thinking bed but might have some soup before I lie to rest. Seems like a reasonable idea.
Short but I would imagine a busy week ahead so looking forward to it. Conclude the blog post for now night guys.

Bi-daily update, sure why not.
Well the past 2 days haven't been too shabby a lot of silliness but overall quite good. Tuesday in a nutshell was pretty good. Left the office a little bit early to head home and work on documentation. Been sinking a good bit of time into minecraft recently in constructing a massive hallway. I actually have a imagine in my mind which usually isn't the case with stuff like this so really glad its formulating. Still no Sol Survivor, or Borderlands yet but no biggie in regards to that. Did get a reasonable amount of sleep which is rare. Anywh0 on to today.
So woke up this morning and decided yesterday to work from home on Wednesday and Thursday. Worked at home last Friday so don't want to abuse the Friday spam too much. Spent most of the day working on documentation and closing out some tickets that were still lingering in my queue. Around lunch time helped take my dad down the car place to get the interior taken care of and stopped by Sheetz for lunch to get gas and lunch. Also made a pit stop by Food Lion that had frozen pizzas for about 2.70 cents...couldn't really pass on that. Original I thought they were Buy 2 get one free for 5.70 a piece but then got the register and it was totally different. I'm not complaining.
Spent the rest of the afternoon doing knowledge transfer related activities and finishing up the document. There was one portion where a requested raged at me for inaccuracies but I kind of shrugged it off.
After the shift (and during part of it I must admit) I jumped on Warcraft to check out the changes in old world for Cata. I love the new changes to the Gnome area. I did the undead area as well but wasn't nearly as impressed. I've already seen the Orc area and that was disappointing too. Hopefully i can get through the others spots by tomorrow. Due to my Hatred of Kotick I still don't see myself coming back. Its kind of like being in a relationship with an attractive but with a crap personality. While looking at it is great its what's inside that really counts. So keeping my distance from giving them money, though don't mind the PTR. The last bit of the evening was spent on minecraft. I might hop back on it for a bit just for fun. That's pretty much my day rewatching the Top Chef finale now and then off to bed.

Been a while time to get back on track
Recently I was reminded that I indeed have a blog and quite honestly the thought did cross my mind the previous evening as there has been a lot running around my mind as of recently. Didn't really sleep well last night due to the entanglement of thought won't go into too much discussion here as I want to get upstairs study for a bit and then head off to bed. Overall though today went well and while I was a bit lazy for the evening portion I plan to not be as lazy tomorrow.
Today wasn't too shabby work was fairly busy and one of my co-workers was trying to push more work on me even though I told him I didn't have much bandwidth. It amuses me that the form he needed to load takes approximately 30 minutes but didn't want to because he hadn't load that specific form before. In either case he got it done around 4:30 and one less thing to do on my plate. Two main things I have do is some documentation for work which I was trucking through on the weekend, I'm about half way done there. The second thing is finish a list of accounts which is almost done and should be able to get that done by midday afternoon tomorrow.
Once work was done I went back home and was pretty lazy. Re-watched the MSI vs. OK Semi-Finals for the Fnatic.Play tournament and sadly it was better than the final. Once again almost feel asleep watching it but once I recovered spent the rest of the evening chatting on AIM and playing Minecraft. Generated a new server and one of my friends has already established a new home / base camp so good times there. Also located some Diamonds though would prefer to preserve them. As for the rest of the evening been updating the Event info for the birthday party and posting the blog entry. Planning to go upstairs soon and go over a few review chapters for A+. Going to schedule to take it in the next 2 weeks as my knowledge is starting to leak and I need to get it done. Something tells me I've may have repeated myself in this post as its getting late and I did write this over two sessions (took a break to update the event info). Think that's about it for now saw the Sol Survivor entered Season 2 for Survival so I might sink some time into that though I'll probably finish playthrough 2 on my Hunter first.
Unfortunately no time was spent on looking over Unity3d or C++ tonight, just lazy but perhaps tomorrow will be a bit more productive and once most of the work related stuff is out the way (assuming no more crops up) then I can start focusing on outside work related knowledge. Its a little past midnight so off to bed now.
Night all.
