Hi, remember me? Yes, I’m still around but there’s an explanation as to why I’ve gone missing. First of all- it’s summer time and I’ve actually been out doing stuff, even though it’s been like 120 degrees outside. Second- I got Sims 3! Yes, I know, it’s been out for over a month now and I still am so crazy about it, it’s really fun and I’ve passed the ‘playing all day and all night’ phase, Third- I’m still looking for a job, the economy has really hit hard, I still can’t find a job no matter how many places I’ve been applying, and while I would rather not work at another dealership they’re the one who are really interested in hiring so I’ve gone back to applying even there. Mostly import dealers now though, I’m weary of working at Ford or GM again, but technically Chrysler is owned by Fiat now so maybe I’ll apply to the handful of dealerships they still have. Fourth- my dad was injured at work, so I’ve been having to do more around the house, take him to some appointments and take care of getting my brother to and from school, basically my schedule revolves around what everyone else needs, dad’s getting better though so things should be back to normal on that front soon. Lastly- I’ve been up to my knees in computers that have been glitching, breaking or just being plain stupid. These past two months alone I’ve had to reformat one computer, fix the laptop in the living room and basically tear down my old Dell XPS, which I’m pissed off about since I paid so much for it. Well, in the midst of all the breaking computers, my own computer- the newest one in the house had some sort of attack and Photoshop got all messed up. I’ve finally fixed it though (yay!) and I think I got my inspiration back. So things should be back to normal soon enough, or as normal as things are for me.

Oh another thing that has kept me away from my blog and my whole online life- Top Gear. Yes, Top Gear- for those not in the know I’ve been catching up on the show Top Gear (Google it, you’ll love it) which I’ve seen clips off ocassionally but I started watching them with my family on BBC America. I even purchased the last 3 seasons from iTunes (don’t do that btw- they’re edited down to like 45 minutes and you miss some funny stuff!) and then I downloaded the rest of the series which I have been unable to find on DVD. It’s more than just a car show really, even if you’re not that into cars or don’t care for them, you can still watch Top Gear and be entertained. I highly recommend it.

So that’s basically it, I’ll be back to posting pics and updating my flickr soon enough and maybe even upgrade my account to premium again.
