Moving back to Vegas
Wednesday, January 20th, 20101yr in Vegas
Thursday, April 2nd, 2009The date had almost slipped me by. I have now been living in Vegas for 1yr, 6 months longer than I really would have cared for. I moved to Vegas to get out of computers for a bit and attempt to work at one of the many clubs or casinos…. And if you know where I stand now you know that didn’t happen, and instead I ended up working for a company that does support for all of the casinos and bars instead. Time like that make me wish I didn’t give up my hosting carreer, but I am trying to work my way back into that as it was something that I can say I actually enjoyed. Anyways Vegas is hot in the summer and pretty cold in the winter, and they lack a real beach.
Vegas Heat, Steak and Computers
Thursday, July 3rd, 2008Over the past couple of weeks Vegas sure has gotten hot. I had forgotten how hot it gets during the summers here. Ohh well once I get a job I think it will be time to fix the AC unit in my car since it doesn’t seem to work anymore.
Ryan was here over the last week and I wish my luck was as god as his. Seems that he had a lucky streak as he was up around $1000 during the time he was here. Even though I haven’t won like that in a long time, he still treated us to nice steak dinner at Claim Jumpers.
I have started to plan out my new fileserver setup. Mainly I have a dual 1ghz machine with 4gig of ram that I am going t put in pace as the fie server, and then take the d fileserver and make it a MythTv frontend for my bedroom… Lets see how well this ends up working out.
Whole lot of nothing…
Thursday, May 8th, 2008I have really been slacking on site updates, mainly because I have been avoiding my computer in all ways possible besides my daily visits to Craigslist. Even with that I have yet to land a job, but it has still been a blast in Vegas non the less.
My days have been occupied with applying for jobs, interviews and countless rounds of disc golf. I have been working on some site designs for a few clients to bid the time as well.
As for this site I am have had a few design ideas in mind, yet I have not really wanted to take the time to work on it and push through the ideas I have in mind.
This weekend a friend from Michigan is coming to Vegas and then taking a drive to California, I might hitch a ride so I can work on my tan at the beach… If I do I hope to add some photos since I have been slacking on that.
Anyways there is an update to occupy your time for a few until I get around to a full update. Good day.
Well here we go…
Sunday, April 20th, 2008I have been meaning to write something up about the last couple of weeks in my new home. The move went well, seemed like it was never going to happen but then finally the day came. Had a nice going away party over at Chads, had a few drinks, and then a few more. I will hopefully post the pictures on my flickr when I decide to stop being lazy. The morning after the party we packed up and did the final run through of the place. Then we hit the road, a few hours later than I had planned but whatever. After getting into Vegas we unloaded the truck and then I unloaded the rest of my car. I have now realized that I have a few too many clothes… I should downgrade.
Other than the move I have just been hanging out, enjoying this like a mini vacation. I am liking Vegas more and more everyday, I mean there is a Jimmy Johns and a BW3’s nearby what more can you ask for? I have also discovered a love for Disc Golfing, kind of wish I had picked up on it sooner… but better now then never I guess. I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss the ocean, but its only a few hours away. I am still looking for a dive bar near by, one that is less about the video poker and more about the cheap drinks and good atmosphere.
The only downfall I have found thus far with this place is the fact that you can drink 24/7 … That could end up being a bad thing. On the job front, well thats another story. I had an interview the 2nd week I was here, but still have not gotten the job. Its somewhat depressing when I start to look at bills and rent and know that I dont have the funds… But ohh well I figure everything else fell into place with moving here so maybe a job will land on my lap soon enough.
