It’s true. Which means that if your not in agreement with me, you’re probably wrong. Just saying friends, keep an eye out for these key moments.

As usual, when Spring/Summer come around, people start going outside and stop calling Sprint. Our call volume goes WAY DOWN until Thanksgiving, so here comes some slow time. I’m definitely ready for it.

Also, I’m going to try to start recording my own Podcast soon… as soon as I figure out what kind of content to put on it, I’ll record one and put it up.

So, I’ve decided that since there is some other ‘mastershake82′ running around the web, I should go ahead and try to pick a new domain and alias that better reflects who I am. I’ve always liked the idea of the ‘cosa nostra’ and Italian organized crime, and quite frankly, my surname, Fiore, really fits the template.

New Aim: TheDonFiore
New Yahoo: TheDonFiore
New MSN: phil@thedonfiore.com
New email: phil@thedonfiore.com

I’ve also redesigned my site to a time when organized crime had much more of an influence. Basically, depression era America. I think it works. Basically monochrome. Let me know what you think.

Well, Kelsey is grounded which sucks. So I’m filling in for her at Saif’s tournament thing. It’s so thrilling. Not really. Ashley’s been here since Thursday, it’s been fun hanging out with her.

Basically, Kelsey’s grounded because her mom found this site. Woops. I hope that Kelsey doesn’t stay in trouble very long. I hope even more that her mom realizes that I treat Kelsey better than any of her previous boyfriends and that I totally get how special she is.

I’ve done nothing to impair Kelsey’s life. It’s simply insulting that her mom would judge me in such a way. Oh well. I’m aware Kelsey’s young, but if I had written her off just because of her age at first, I would have really missed out, so I don’t regret it for a second.

Maybe her mom will have a change of heart. Kelsey’s been happier than I’ve ever seen her when she’s with me. And it would be nice if her mom would just support us, that way the only thing we’ve ever really worried about wouldn’t be an issue anymore. Anyway, enough about that.

I’m bored here, and Saif doesn’t need me, so I’m outtie. Peace out kids.

This is recording of a Hailey calling me at 6am for something. It’s pretty funny.

This is just to test the Podcasting function of my blog.

So, I added a section to the website for me to blog about technology. It seems like I’m always the first of my friends to find new services, software, and gadgets, so I figured I’d create a place to write about them. Along with this, I have installed Wordpress as my blogging software, which allowed me this functionality. We’ll see how it all works out.

I haven’t updated in a while, overall, life is good. Kelsey is incredible. Work doesn’t suck quite as bad as it used to. I’m still looking for a new job, but not desperately. Looking forward to the Aqua Teen movie coming up in about a week.

Speaking of the Aqua Teen movie, Cartoon Network totally nailed me on April fools day. They had been advertising that they would show the movie on April 1st at 9pm. I was aware it was probably an April Fools prank, but I tuned in anyway, and they started showing the movie… I freaked out, texted everyone, told them to turn it on. Then, alas, after five minutes, they shrunk it down to a 1 inch box in the lower left hand corner with no sound and put Futurama on. Ugg! Oh well, I kind of saw it coming, but I wanted to believe as soon as I saw them actually start the movie!

That’s all for now.

So today was Wednesday, which means I went to eat lunch with my mom at Jenks. I had fried steakfingers and school pizza, I don’t know why, but I really enjoy that stuff.

Monday I got get hang out with Kelsey for the better portion of the day, it was pretty fun… her mom called her and went crazy about something, so Kelsey isn’t allowed to go out at night for a while which sucks. We went to a soccer game last night for her school since that’s one of the few things she can do, it was as boring as most high school sports. =P

Anyway, today has been slow and bland with lots of napping and the occasionally munching on Marshmallow Mateys. It’s been good, and I’m sad that there is not gonna be anymore unwinding for 3 more days. But I have Sunday off, which is awesome, and I get to see TMNT Saturday night which is double awesome. I’m outta here. Peace.

So, for the record, nice weather, Mario’s Pizza, awesome girlfriend, and weird friends make life grand. Yesterday was pretty rockin… it totally felt like summer starting for me. I had pizza, hung out at Megan’s house which actually turned out to be a pretty good time.

We ended up not going to see Ninja Turtles, which is kind of sad… but we had a better time at Megan’s I think. I still really want to see Ninja Turtles. Work is soo boring, but it doesn’t suck… Unfortunately, because of my old jerk manager, I felt unmotivated to go to work as much last week, I literally started feeling sick each day as he micromanaged to me into oblivion, even as I carried his freaking team on the core stats and performance. So I’m missed a bunch of hours this pay period, which means that finances are gonna suck in two weeks… oh wells.

Tonight I’m going to eat with my family then I’m coming back here to work until 2am, hopefully get some easy hours to balance out how grossly irresponsible I’ve been.

So, the website is pretty much done. The content should remain fairly fresh as the blog, pictures, and links will all update as I basically live my life. Pretty neat, eh?

So, I’ve had metal on my mind since Thursday, all it takes is a really good concert to remind you why you really, really love a genre of music. I’m glad Kelsey keeps her ear to the ground to hear about this stuff, I’m so far out of the loop that I have no idea what’s going on. Norma Jean was freaking awesome, as was the Chariot. Handshake Murders weren’t as good as I remember, but I’m not as into the insano core style anymore either.

I’m still hoping to get placed fairly soon at a new job. All the jobs I’ve been qualified for haven’t worked for me for one reason or another, but I can feel it, next week is the week. =)

Anyway kids, I’m out, be safe and don’t eat raw meat.

This gentlemen is named Gerald. He is my ‘new’ new manager. He is cool. He makes my life easier here. So my job, starting this week… doesn’t suck as bad. So, there ya go. Rockin.

So, after a little work, this web site has really come together. I guess there are a few things I still need to add, but I’ve got most of my life on it. I really want it to be central place to find everything about me on the web.

I’ve decided to turn this domain around, and actually have content here. So, right now it’s under construction. We’ll see how it goes. It’s a good way to kill time at work as well. For the moment, thanks for visiting, and please check back in later for updates!
