Thoughts - Ideas - Philosophy
so you ever just watch people... I think you see the most interesting things sometimes. I was at the laundry mat tonight and I saw this guy and girl talking, they looked to me as if they were flirting a bit. But during the coarse fo their conversation, she had mentioned her husband doing this or that. They continued in on in the same fashion, again, looking as if they were still flirting with each other. I guess I found it awkward, because I don't think I would be acting the same. I think it just maybe my personality.
I thought of another idea the other day; Maslov's hierarchy of needs. For those who don't know, it is the concept that you have certain needs that have to be obtained before you move up the pyramid and to achieve wants and desires and eventually reach self actualization. I started thinking how much it really defines who we are. Those who have those basic needs fulfilled and don't have to worry about them, can spend more time focusing on on those concepts that are higher up on the pyramid. I think that helps to define who I am. Most of my life I have been focused on fulfilling that first level of needs and making sure I don't lose what I already have. Some of my biggest fears are being poor and not being able to pay my rent or have enough money for food. I seem to focus more on the practical then the fun. I have had friends tell me that when I give gifts I only give pratical gifts instead of fun gifts, and to me that makes sense. Get people what they need. I think I am getting to a point where I am living comfortable and can now focus on other aspects. It's a new idea and concept for me, it's going to take some time to learn.

Business plan

Thoughts - Ideas - Philosophy I was looking over the website I created a few weeks ago for my small business consulting idea. After some time, i think it still looks professional and that the idea is still pretty good. When I think about, I really seem to have all the players in place. So I think it's time to get this thing started. I figure I need to actually get the company up and running legally, get some documentation taken care of, create a plan of action and finally just go out and get the clients. Hopefully have something up and running by summer. The job I have now is really giving me some great training and a ton of experience. Some people have said I or the people I know don't have enough experience, but all we have to have is a little more experience than our clients do. I have talked with many small business owners, they just want to concentrate on the actual industry they are in, they don't really think about running the business.
I'm hyped about this...

Went clubbing last night with in Hollywood for a fraternity bro’s birthday. I invited a coworker, Justin with me. He’s our graphic intern, cool kid. He’s finishing up his last semester of college, always a fun guy to work with and hang out with. Anyway, it was weird, I really didn’t think I was going to have a good time. It was a Friday night, and after work I kind just wanted to go home and relax, shut out the world for the rest of the night. Plus I thought I may be to old for this. So I swing by Justin’s house in Hollywood. We chill for a bit with his neighbors on their patio, have a couple of drinks and then grab a cab over to the club. Got into the club and just started drinking. Choice of drink for the night was good ol’ Jack and Coke (great for night, not great the next day). So after a couple of drinks, we were hanging out with some people we knew there, then hit up the dance floor. Nothing big happen, didn’t really meet a girl or anything, but it just felt really really good to be out there. I was either dancing really well, or was to drunk to care. So after three more jack and cokes later ( I think I had 7 or 8 for the night), it was 2am and time to cab it back to Justin’s place. Damn, got to his house, hit his couch and just passed out. Woke up in the morning with a bit of hang over, but it’s amazing how purging your body of the alcohol makes you feel (yes I threw up). Had a bit of head ache today, so I tried to sleep it off, but all and all, feeling pretty good. Definitely thinking I need to go out more often. Maybe not to the extent I did last night (dropped $80 for taxi and drinks), but just get out and be around people, have fun, through back a couple with my friends.

I am thinking about moving to either Santa Monica or a beach city soon. I am going to talk to my roomy about moving out early. I love living with him, but I don’t think I like where I am living now. I need to be somewhere where the community is more active, neighbors talk with each other and there is something to do. We shall see…

So I called Jennifer tonight, she was straight up honest with me and told me she is seeing someone else. She said she wanted to be honest with me and not lead me one and the whole still be friends bit. We talked for about another half of an hour about Salsa dancing, work and other things and ended on a good note. We will still have Salsa class for a seven more weeks together, so que-sa-ra-sa-ra.

Have to find out what’s next. Need to get out and meet people, so my ideas are joining a co-ed softball team, take some Salsa dancing lessons on the Westside, maybe joining a tri-team and the one thing I thought I would never do, go hang out at some bars.

I know it’s sounds strange, but I think my main priority right now is to go out and meet people. It starting to get to me being alone. I know I have my friends nearby, my family is all out of state, but I miss the companionship.

So, here we go…

So I think I am in a research stage, maybe an expermental stage, maybe a stage of time to go out and meet the world.

I find that I do better when I have a plan, so I need some time to work on that plan. Time to find some more ducks to line up in a row, and trust me, trying to train ducks to line up in a row is hard to do. They respond well to those cheesey fish crakers though...

I just need to clear my head right now…

Ok, so I am feeling good again. My Salsa instructor said she is giving me a chance to audition for the next level of Salsa dancing on Monday, so hopefully that goes well. I have my work’s Holiday Party this weekend and I know that will be fun and I have been running again for about a week now, doing well at it, and feeling damn good afterwards.

I will probably call Jennifer by tomorrow to see how things are going. Hopefully things go positive there. She will be in the Salsa class I will be taking starting next week, so that will be interesting no matter what happens.

Life’s still good!!!!!
