For My Work

Feb-5-2010 By nitrousworx

I need a really fast laptop. I’ve been browsing for some laptops and I’m so amazed of how high tech everything is today. I’m maintaining a database at work and though it is not much hard work as maybe to some other offices, it is still my work and I want to excel in it and sometimes the gadgets at work are limited and owning my own fast gadget can help. Just yesterday, I updated everything in my desktop because it is slowing down my tasks. My wife suggested I look for a new Apple laptop which I can also use in doing some Flash designs. I need more practice if I also want to develop that skill. So much to do and so much money to need. Hopefully, this year, I can purchase what I need to perform better.

Biking and then Some

Jan-24-2010 By nitrousworx

I miss it. I’ve been always saying about that since it’s been weeks since my last biking. I was supposed to go biking after work last Friday but that didn’t push through because I have to start on something or it will be long overdue. The fact of the matter, I haven’t started what I should have been started bu now and the biking was cancelled, all I did was read some insurance quote online since I kept staring at our laptop for hours and the page was opened. My wife was helping a friend and forgot to exit from the page. At least, I learned a thing or two about insurance. I promise to be more productive on the coming days. I will just have to spend time with my family this weekend and then I’ll concentrate on work for 2 days since Wednesday we’re off to Hong Kong for 4 days!

Web Design

Jan-22-2010 By nitrousworx

I have a huge project. I thought looking for cigars online and presenting it to my previous boss for purchase as gifts for his VIP friends who is supporting him is a challenge, well this one is bigger and more challenging.His wife actually asked me to design a website. Yikes! Now I need to refresh my knowledge in Flash and Dreamweaver. The timeframe is short and I need to remember all my stock knowledge. I don’t want to disappoint my boss and I always want to be good in the things I am asked to do. I’m actually seeing a college friend who’s expertise is in web designing to help me refresh my know-how. Above all, I hope I don’t get to disappoint myself. I got myself into this and I have to do it perfectly. Wish me luck!

Not My Business

Jan-18-2010 By nitrousworx

I don’t know what’s wrong with my office mate but she asked me to help her find discount diet pills. I actually told this to my wife and she was furious. Telling me that why will a girl office mate ask me such a thing. The only reason I can think of is that I can search better and browse online more than anybody at work. I told my office mate that even if I know a few diet pills, I think that it is still not my business to give her information like that since we are not even friends. Women sometimes are weird, they will do anything for the sake of beauty. Darn!

24, Ain’t Enough!

Jan-17-2010 By nitrousworx

Can somebody add more hours in a day? Because 24 hours is just not enough! Tremendous activities during the weekends that I can’t squeeze in my biking. And with the eating out during the weekends I would be needing weight loss products to lose the calories I’m taking. I need exercise badly! But how can I do that if I work on weekdays from 8-5 and when I come home, it’s too dark to go trailing and on weekends there so much family errands to do that biking comes in the last of the list. Tomorrow is Monday once again, though work is not so busy nowadays, Monday is still and will always be the busiest day of my work week so yeah! Good luck to me!

The Oldies at Work

Jan-16-2010 By nitrousworx

We were chatting at work yesterday, it was a Friday and there is not much stuff to do, I was done designing this calling card for printing. Seriously these oldies at work don’t choose their topics, we covered almost all private subjects you can ever imagine. From hemorrhoid to hemorrhoid treatments, from mistresses and coming back to their wives, from cheating in a basketball game to keeping money matter secrets from their wives. From the ups to the downs of their lives. The conversations are light and though sometimes I end up being uncomfortable about their topics, I always end up laughing. They find humor in a bad situation but at the end of every conversation, they always talk about the lessons learned from it. I love the people I’m working with now, though I’m the youngest among the group, I don’t mind. I learn a lot from them.

Welcome New Year!

Jan-8-2010 By nitrousworx

My wife will always remind me to update this blog. She bugs me about it as much as she bugs me to look over thisĀ life insurance rate, that she thinks every family should have. I think she’s the only person who checks my blog aside from the few nice blog hoppers who leave comments in my Cbox. I vow to blog more this year, if my job allows it. My boss is not so meticulous unlike my previous boss which is kinda nice because we are lax these days but I don’t want to jinx it, it’s only 8 days of 2010 and we have a long way to go so we’ll see about that… hehehe. Family is just the norm. Doing what we have to do to pass our every day. If I’m with my wife and my son, I’m alright.

Missing Out

Dec-14-2009 By nitrousworx

I’ve been missing out a lot in the blogosphere. Aside from browisng a few great looking glass tiles for my mother in law online, I haven’t touched the keys to type what I want to say and tell about my world. As of this moment, I’m actually connected to 2 offices, one is my real job while the other is where my previous boss’ campaign headquarters is located. The last one, I’m actually on call. It has been a very hectic December and my wife is convincing me to blog a lot more and I always say yes, only to find myself passing out at night when they are asleep. Stress has been a huge source and as much I wanted to keep everybody updated, I can’t. Offline life is so busy, most of the time online life is taking a back seat.

Another Task

Nov-25-2009 By nitrousworx

This season is very busy at work. Imagine, not my line of work but I still need to look for nice gifts for my boss. Since I’m always online the boss asked me to look for unqiue items he can give away this Holiday season. I actually saw Acid cigars, unique coffee and tea press plus a nice looking locket/watch for special people that is kinda close to him. I wish I can have somebody to look for nice items for me, sort of my personal shopper. It’s been very chaotic these past few days inside the mall, I’m glad my wife is not obliging me to come to her every time she does our Christmas shopping. :D

Checklist for This Week

Nov-19-2009 By nitrousworx

I never admit to my wife that I do checklists. I think it’s a girly thing. But she tells me that the thinks I write on my iPhone are checklists. Maybe she’s right. So let me tell you what I did this week and what’s left from the list.

  • Buy computer sets.
  • Buy a printer.
  • Set up the computers, internet and everything needed to make the headquarters able.
  • Install the new wireless printer at my former boss’ headquarters.
  • Read about an article about an Oklahoma attorney, that one of my bosses asked me to do.
  • Do some shopping for Christmas with my wife. (Our list is almost done!)
  • Bike with the biker friends this Saturday.
  • Probably watch the first Pyro Olympics at the Fort.
  • Upload songs in the iPod as per request of the wife.
  • Paper works
  • And more paper works before the week ends.
