Day 96: Because updates are only valid when they're posted.

So lately everyone's been having freak storms. Tons of tornados, lots of hail, rains, wildfires etc. We're just missing a volcano bursting from the middle of Kansas. And of course with all the rain comes wet roads which really isn't a huge issue. People drive in rain all the time, right?

Well, thats what I thought too. Apparently though, out of all the days to have a car issue, my truck picked Monday when I was rushing home to rush to work, and my tires locked up mid turn and I skidded straight into a little old Honda CR-V.
*sigh*

Talk about a wrench in everything. I barely showed up for work on time, I got another lawsuit pending probably. Her knee was fine at first but theres some medical bills beneath it, and so things aren't looking good there. But on top of all that, when she sues me, she sues me for assets.

Assets include stocks, or pieces of ownership that I have in any legal company in the US.
Including my own.
So I was already a little freaked, and then I found out she's a manager/business owner for the only successful bar in town. And Kindle, which currently outsells every other form of book, is a fertile business ground where I was planning on sowing some seed. The average american may not realize this, but a business owner COULD realize the tremendous upside thats given in this endeavor, and they may want a piece of the pie. Or the ownership of that pie.

So I could've put all this effort in, turned in tax paperwork and be just downright dead because my steering locked up, took me into someone else's car, and now that person could've legally sued me for my company.

What do I do now?

Day 96: Update, because I've been busy

So yes, I know I haven't blogged in a while. It happens. I'm working one 40-hour job, launching what WAS just a publishing company that is all of a sudden becoming way more complicated than just formatting a word document and getting it to Kindle. Planning conventions, sponsoring community projects, running a webcomic, getting a permanent office in Denton, and everything requires tons of planning, pros and cons, decision making, etc. which leaves me little time for much else. Now that im also looking like a regular business executive with a iPhone, its just crazy crazy busy busy busy. I wish I could say it was just the NBA playoffs, but I don't even get to watch those this year. It's all work, all business.

Wel except for the girl. But I have to have a little relaxation right?

So basically my life boils down to this. 40 Hours of burgers and fries in a pretty much managerial role. Launching the site, figuring out everything about how extensive its ever going to get in the next year or so, spending time with the woman, going to school "full time", trying to spend time with family, and yet still live a normal relaxing life like a person who gets sleep.

Sheesh. Busy busy busy busy busy busy

Day 95: Busy busy busy

I got meetings being planned, business being done, trying to make a living on 7.50 an hour, and working two different jobs in the same place while working full time at another is a nutcase. I feel like an idiot. As far as things go with Kait, still going strong. As far as things go with church, I hope to go tomorrow for the first time in a few weeks. As far as awesomeness goes, (besides me being me) I went to two (COUNT THEM: TWO) Mavericks games this week, and those were both pretty neat. I wish I had the weekend off though.
