Last day of thanks and Week 11

"Hadoken"










Just finishing up last weeks day of thanks (sorry, so much going on).

1-"Battle Los Angeles": I know, how silly. But truthfully I liked this movie a lot. The message it left me with was the quote of Winston Churchhill's "Success is going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm". Great ending to the movie too....Check it out!

2-Finally getting some sleep: Not a lot, but a lot more than I have been getting. I guess the last week was a bit more taxing than normal but the little things again right?

3-I had  a customer in today. An older woman, very nice. I have to admit, I thought she was annoying in the beginning but then I got to talking to her more. I sell her a phone and I find out she loves Mickey Mouse and she is kind of scared about changing phones and then I surprise her and go on Google and take a picture of Mickey and Minney Mouse. She smiles one of those surprised heartfelt smiles and her husband did too. It was definitely worth the little extra step with them.

4-My coworkers: I closed tonight as the only salesman. A few people called out. My closing crew surprised me. Some stayed longer and others really came through. Thanks guys.

5-And once again, to my friends. I guess I've used this one a few times but I am very lucky to have some cool friends in my life. I guess it's just noticing how important they are to me.

Thank you,

Week 11:


A Time to Work and a Time to Play:

Tell you the truth, I was struggling to find a challenge for this week. I mean I have a lot of things left to do, but in terms of being able to pull it off with the week I have ahead of me. So I finally settled on Gaming Week.

I wouldn't say I hate games but I am generally not all that into them. I mean there are a few games that I do really love. I also am a competitive person by nature so there is that, but in general I don't play many video games. I know there are benefits to playing games. There is the problem solving and hand eye coordination benefits. It also develops the ol' reflexes. That being said...I bought Black Ops.

I was thinking about getting this game for a while. I honestly don't know if I will be able to finish it because frankly, I suck. I also do know from a friend that it is a quick game. But then again, I am just gonna enjoy the experience. I mean I am always trying to do something or accomplishing something. Why not just enjoy life and have fun. Hmmm, this is going to be an interesting week;)
