Its been an interesting week…

7 04 2008

As most of you know, I work in the Music Business.  Specifically I’m at EMI in Publishing.  I’m quickly learning that job security is hard to come by in this industry.  If you’ve been watching the news, you’ve probably seen stories about EMI cutting 2000 jobs.  Well last week it hit us.  Publishing, myself included, managed to make it through unscathed.  Unfortnately, nearly thirty of my co-workers weren’t as lucky. 

With the state of the business the way it is, something had to be done.  Bottom line is that as a company, we just aren’t running as efficiently as we should be.  As a result, we needed to trim down.  Sadly, that meant getting rid of some really awesome people who for the most part, were great at their jobs.  Since we are reorganizing, 18 new jobs were posted.  We work for an amazing Christian company but it’s a tough time.  Please pray for all those involved.





Please be true…

How amazing would it be if I could use Sub-Zero to battle Goro and uppercut punch my opponents into ceilings made of sharp spikes all on my phone?  One can only hope…





My new obsession

This weekend I hooked my Xbox 360 up to Xbox live.  Its awesome. Thats it.





I’m a married man…

27 03 2008

Well we’re back.  I’m married. I’m living in my new house.  This is my first marital post.  A lot has changed but it doesn’t feel all that different.  The wedding was all I could have hoped for. The music was amazing. Best of all, all of my friends and family were there to share it with us.  Our photographers put up a Slideshow some samples of the wedding pics.  We also took a bunch of pics on the honeymoon as a tribute to our favorite show…

We’re back…

26 03 2008

I’m back working and enjoying married life. I plan to post about the wedding and honeymoon but I still need to resize some more pictures. Until I can, enjoy THIS.  Its the thought that has kept me entertained for the last week or so.





1 day…

15 03 2008

Tomorrow is the big day.  I expected to be a little more nervous than I am.  The truth is, at this point it doesn’t really matter.  I’m excited about actually being married.  The only thing I was nervous about was the execution of the event.  Now I have come to the conclusion that it is just going to happen.  How is another story…  I’m done with blogging and the internet for at least the next week or so. I’ll post pictures of everything once I get back.  See you on the other side of matrimony…

Panera

I’m a mere two days out from giving all of my life to another person. I have plenty to do but where am I? Panera.  Fear not though, I am here to mooch off of their free wifi and work on my vows. Yep, two days out and I’m just now working on my vows.  Good thing Larissa is marrying me for the procrastinator that I am.  Just needed to blog to keep the streak alive.  Back to working on the most important event of my life to this point…





3 Days…

ball and chain 

T-minus 3 days and counting ’til I hitch up the ole ball and chain.  I had planned to start my vacation time tomorrow, but about halfway through a meeting about collecting money from deadbeat record labels, I decided to make today a half-day.  I took the rest of the day to eat lunch with my parents, wash my filthy excuse for a car, and meet up with my lovely bride.  Today was a good day…  





4 days…

12 03 2008

Only 4 days away from marital bliss and I am tired and stressed.  My room, car, and desk at work are all a wreck.  I think this is pretty indicative of what my life is like at this point.  I’m not nervous at all. I can’t wait to marry Larissa.  I’m just ready for all of this planning to be over.  For those yet to wed, I recommend eloping…





PTL!
