Not too shabby

Well I am back in the job market, I actually turned down 3-4 jobs before interviewing for this one, and I was hired later that day pretty awesome. Its exactly what I made before with what appears to be a lot more room for growth. Temp to perm instead of just temp. I have had an interesting 2 weeks of unemployment though, and in a way I needed that little vacation, I just didn't need the absence of money. Well I sold my Nexus one on Ebay, winning bid 195, a little disappointing, but technology moves so fast so its good I got that, Craigslist people weren't really offering shit, except one guy offered me to a Nexus S trade which would of been worth it, but I need the cash. Well I will definitely be living some city life, I've decided I will be taking the rail everyday to work still driving to the station, but I still think this is the best way to get there. I guess I am little bit all over the place and I think I have been drinking way too much, but I still have plans to do it next weekend, perhaps after that I may take a little break.

Job-Loss

Well the inevitable happened, my job laid me off, they kept me longer than pretty much any other contractor, and I gotta give credit to my managers for keeping us as long as they did. There is still a possibility I could get some real work there as long as a bone is thrown. First thing to do as an unemployed individual. 1. File for unemployment✓ 2. Post at least one item for sale✓ (My old Nexus One on Craigslist, since I have the g2x now.) 3. Look for work ✓ already called my contracting firm so they will be on the lookout. I will probably do my own job searching as well, but currently I think I will take a day or two off just to do it.

Drowning in connectivity

yes that was a title for one of the podcasts I listen to on the TWiT network. Its a good statement thought and I am probably guilty of this, I Google everything, I validate people statements way to often now. To some they don't appreciate it, well thats who I am. I should be getting a Nexus One finally I have been wanting it long enough, my job is going great... sadly still a contractor, basically means that I am more expendable than anyone who actually works at Gamestop. I really don't know the point of this post, but does there really need to be one sometimes its just good to write, even thought I can't write for shit right now, I guess my writing skills go away when you don't use them... well don't use them correctly because with facebook and twitter updates, you don't write for a professional audience you are writing for a much more personal one.... well I own stealthgyro.com ... would be nice if I owned my actual name, but for the most part thats all taken. yes it just takes you here for now at least I don't know if I plan to change that in the future probably not. I am still thinking of doing a website, but so far thats all it is "thinking". alright this post has become pointless for the most part, I was writing a self wish list, and was like hey I'll write a quick blog post.

Ridiculous wishlist (not including whats on steam or possibly amazon)

Nexus One or new android phone $529.99.... still up in the air on this right now

should be able to get one used (great condition with accessories) $400

MGS: Peace walker PSP Big Boss edition bundle - $199.99 tax - 216.49

^that version is a gamestop exclusive

Zune 120gb (30gb I am deleting music now) I've seen some places have it for around $100, but most places have it at ~$200

super street fighter 4 on ps3 and xbox360 - I'm a competitor and I've got nemesis(already plural?) on both consoles.

Ipad 16gb wifi $499.99 if tax 541.24 ... I don't want an iPhone however I like to play a lot of the games, and very interesting apps out there.

of course new computer at this point in time I would like an i7930 with 480GTX minimum 4gb ddr3 ram $1500-$3000

-or-

gtx 480

q8400

^ modernize my computer more.... also just might do something else I want an i7 machine, but thats 1500 minimum this is half that, and probably not that much less of performance

would also like an android tablet... the Tegra2 one $? probably less than $500

almost want a win7 tablet as well.... probably not though,.

I kinda want Win phone 7, I know my fiancée will be getting one, so perhaps I will just play with hers

laptop briefcase... remember that blog post earlier about cheap laptop, well I surprisingly use it a lot.

woot, nexus one continued

well nexus one should be officially out, I don't have the money for it nor money for much else, barely have enough for bills so um yea :-/... however w2's and tax returns should be on the way in the next couple of months and I love that efile...

Well I had a job interview at Woot! today and it looks good so far, there are a few other people looking into the position as well. Well next Wednesday the 13th should be the answer that I am looking for :-) everyone cross their fingers... I know I am ...

Nexus One

I am so excited... and its all based on the rumormill, but so many blogs and news sites advertising some of the information from the rumormill almost adds confirmation. So far I believe all the leaked specs are correct. Multiple sites (probably still only 1 source) say release of January 5th, and quite possibly $199 or $100 for "old" Google users hopefully I qualify, which brings me to another point that Nexus One might be invite only at first which also should apply to "old" google users which I have had Gmail since 6/21/2004.. only a coupe of months after its release. So Google if you are reading this please let me be worthy enough for the invite to purchase Nexus One. Don't get me wrong my G1 is good, but its not perfect. Also I plan to start developing on Android, if anyone has any tips let me know I will also be on XDA for help and etc.
