MELTDOWN… BUT I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT JAPAN.

I know that I have not posted anything in a while. Actually it’s been about two weeks since my last post. I have had quite a few things to deal with, but the one thing that I really need to address is my netbook. Reason being is because for the past few weeks the hard drive has been making a constant buzzing noise that is quite annoying.

Plus starting up my netbook has been a problem too sometimes. Actually…. The startup of my netbook has become a daily issue with me nowadays. The computer does eventually work, but I feel that it’s struggling with the process.

Granted I use my netbook for just about everything I do online, from looking for work to posting subjects and photography for my blog. But now I am getting very concerned for I don’t know how long the system will last. I do need to get it looked at and repair, but of course I will need the money to do so. And as we all know I am unemployed.

So this is another new challenge for me to deal with. I just hope to have it fixed before my system crashes. Granted I do have my files backed up. But I would just hate the process of looking for a new laptop at the moment. I rather keep what I currently have. After all it’s gotten me this far. And I have to admit that I like my netbook and would just hate to think that I might have to replace it. Personally I rather just get it repaired that is what I really want to do.

Granted I did get the following error code below when my system had a crash a few weeks back.

BCCode : f4     BCP1 : 00000003     BCP2 : 865E2760     BCP3 : 865E28D4

BCP4 : 8060577E     OSVer : 5_1_2600     SP : 3_0     Product : 768_1

C:\DOCUME~1\LUISCA~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER0857.dir00\Mini030111-01.dmp

C:\DOCUME~1\LUISCA~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\WER0857.dir00\sysdata.xml

Of course I have no idea what this means. And my operating system is Windows XP Service Pack three with all the updates. So I know that my OS is current. But I just can’t figure out the problem at the moment.

So I hope that I can get this looked at before my computer had a total meltdown. For that is really the last thing I need to happen, but I will keep going of course. I just hope that I can get this system fixed before the worse happens.

IF IT’S NOT ONE THING, IT’S ANOTHER.

As much as I would love to write about the high points of my life, I also at times need to post the middle or low points of my life too. As to “why” I am writing this post? I guess I had the urge to write today and as well let out a few thoughts.

This time of the year during the months of March and April, I have to actually plan what I will be doing for the rest of the year. Why this time of the year and not New Years like everyone else does? You may ask.

The reason is because since I am unemployed and looking for work I actually depend on my tax return to support me for a good part of the year, just in case my unemployment finally runs out, I will have some extra money to support me during that time until I find some work.

So I literary plan all my expenses for the year, in terms of what I plan to do and as well the expense of it. Sounds odd I know, but I just like to think of it as “good planning.” Also I have a few other items going on in my life that at this time last year I would have never thought that I would be going through.

Granted its nothing extreme, but does need to be addressed. Such as my net book that I have often called “HAL” does need to be taken in for review and possible repair at a local computer repair shop.

To the possibility of my current relationship failing once again. The reason that I say “once again” is because we have dated once before a few years back and after a breakup and not talking to each other for a couple of years, we have gotten back in touch with each other and thought to try again.

So I have to deal with that as well. Plus the fact that my net book/ personal computer is having problems will mean that this is an unexpected expense that I will have to save and put out for now. I like I said, “If it’s not one thing, it’s another.” with me.

As for my relationship issue right now I am at a point that I am comfortable with however the outcome will be. I have spent many a night thinking about it, and I know that me and him will eventually have a talk about it. But whatever happens I know that I will be totally fine with what the final outcome will be. I will not be upset if he does cut me off once again. For the simple reason that we did try to work things out, and like the last time we dated, it just seems not to be our time to date each other at this moment for each other’s personal reasons.

I hope that it does continue with understanding, but at the same time I know it may not continue as well. I guess you can say that it’s a “split vote” with me. So he will have to make the judgment call on it. Does he read my blog? Yes… he use to. But I am not even sure if he even does that anymore. If he still does then at lease he will know what is on my mind and address it in a phone call or in person.

I don’t want to make the first move for that might come off as being to aggressive and might turn him away from me, so this time around I am somewhat taking a passive approach with it. When he feels comfortable with the matter he can address it with me. Personally I hope we can continue our relationship for the record. And if not, I don’t want to fully cut him off this time around, for I would still like for us to keep in touch and maybe continue our friendship and relationship, doing everything that we use to do, but just not make the final full commitment.  We will see what happens in due time.

As you can see I have quite a few things to deal with at this point in my life, so if anything wish me luck and all the best.

CHARLIE SHEEN PLUS TWITTER EQUALS #WINNING !

So it seems that actor Charlie Sheen not only just joined Twitter, he has taken it over. With everything going on with the actor from his drunken rants, messing around with “ladies of the night” and his hit show Two & a Half Men being cancelled from all his wild activity.

It seems that he has made a comeback on Twitter.

Now don’t get me wrong. I do enjoy a good comeback story. But this definitely takes the cake as they say. After all he did set the Guinness World Record for fastest Twitter user to hit one million followers.

His record time? 25 hours and 17 minutes.

And at this time he has 1,468,966 followers when this blog post was posted. So “yes” he is a winner and is “#WINNING” as they say on Twitter.

He has posted some funny and interesting tweets I think such as the following below.

“Just got invited to do the Nancy Grace show… I’d rather go on a long road trip with Chuck Lorre in a ’75 Pacer….”

“Ready for my next fastball, world? PLAN BETTER Applies to everything where an excuse now sits. Try it. U won’t be wrong. Ever. #PlanBetter”

“I’ve been informed me that #Plan Better is rated a major success! thank u all! like my dear friend Gnarls Gnarlington says, #WINNING!”

“In all sincerity… Thank you Twitter community for the warm reception & the followers that helped get me to 1M in 24 hours!!! #teamsheen”

Plus he also posted the following too in his Twitter stream.

“@ebertchicago Yeah, you really don’t know lonely til you’ve gone to town on 5 chicks at once. #still #winning #planbetter”

He seems to feel that he is on top of the world right now. Well… He did get the Guinness World Record for fastest Twitter user to hit one million followers after all.

But it’s more than that… Maybe he started using Twitter as an outlet or maybe just wanted to get his point across? Who knows? But it seems to be working for him. Now I also hear that he might get paid for doing promotional tweets on Twitter. I wonder who will be the first major company to sponsor that?

Not to mention as well how much are they going to pay him for doing such a thing. Once known as a “bad boy” in Hollywood, he is now the “bad boy” of Twitter. I will admit I do follow him on Twitter for you just never know what he will tweet next.  But is this just a bad train wreck or downward spiral? Or is it a new comeback for him? It seems to be a comeback at the moment. But every high point in life does have a low point too. We will see in time. Who knows what will happen. But it does seem that everyone is along for the ride including myself.

But for now it is a comeback, at least I think so. At this point you can either love him or hate him. What are your thoughts about all this? Let me and the word know. After all Charlie Sheen is doing just that, letting the world know how he feels at the moment.

ME AND MY BLOG, WHAT A YEAR IT HAS BEEN.

I started my blog http://lulogicblog.com/ a year ago, to be exact on the date it was on March 3, 2010. And I have to admit that it has been fun and very interesting to do so, and I am very glad that I started it.

After giving it some thought last year, I asked a friend of mines via Twitter what did he think of the idea of me starting a blog. His reply to me was “Go for it.” And so I did just that… I had gone for it.

The start of my blog back then was a “work in progress” with some flaws, but after some fine tuning and growth it has become what it is now, something that I am actually quite proud of.

To be totally honest, I was feeling depressed when I first started it, for I was unemployed (I still am for the record…) and I needed an outlet I guess you can say. And it has been a great outlet for me. Plus I have taken my blog in new directions that I would have never thought of doing so in the beginning when I started it.

An example… My photography, I have started photography about ten years ago, then stopped after a few years for personal reasons. Then when I thought to pick up the hobby again for my blog, I had totally forgotten how much I actually enjoyed taking photos. It felt like a new passion for me all over again.

As well since I am not working at this time I have been trying to make my photography somewhat of a money-maker for me. And it has helped me out with the bills from time to time, so I am very glad about that.

Then there are the people that I have met in my travels for my photography and as well for my blog. And I have learned quite a few things from them during that time, just one too many people to list, but we all still do try to keep in touch in one form or another.

And of course my newest edition, my You Tube channel. http://www.youtube.com/user/LuLogicBlog as another way to promote my blog as well.

So I guess you can say that the best is yet to come, anything is possible. So if I was ever asked, “Is it worth it starting a blog?” I would say “Yes.” For it is a great platform to share your thoughts, rants, and even ideas, for the entire world to see.

Of course… be careful of what you write and post.

And there are the people that follow someone’s blog. I have a few people that have subscribe to my blog and it totally fascinates me that people find what I post interesting. I am thankful for the ones that have subscribed to my blog, and I hope to get many more followers. For its people that comment and subscribe to my blog that makes me want to keep writing and posting photos.

As I come to the end of this post I would like to thank everyone for their support and help that I have gotten over the past year. I would name them… But they know who they are. :-)   so with that said, all I can say is a simple “Thank you.”
