2012…Already Busy!

Wow, 2012 is here and I am already busy – not a big surprise there! For those of you that do not keep up with me on Facebook, there has been a lot going on.
The biggest thing in my life right now is Tara :) Here is the tweet that started it all:
@TwainRookie Have you been to a @JackalsHockey game yet this season? I would love to have you join me for one!

Things have been awesome and they just keep getting better :) Yes, I cannot stop smiling :)
Work is keeping me busy and the 2nd Annual Winter Village Bluegrass Festival is at the end of the month – really looking forward to that.
Ok, I must get going and get back to work before heading to meetings in Ithaca for the day – more soon!
Cheers!
Goodbye 2010…

Well here it is, the end of another year and a fresh start for another 365 days. I will admit that I have neglected this blog and with good reason – I have been busy. Many of you follow me on Facebook, which is where I post most of my daily updates. If you have kept up with me on there, there you know how busy I really have been.
2011 will be no different, Monday morning starts out with jury duty in county court – a huge waste of time in my opinion. I have no desire to sit in a room and watch two overpaid suits go back and forth over petty crap. Who knows if I will even get selected to sit on a jury, it is just going to be a waste of time waiting to get called anyway.
My hope is to update this blog more often, I am shooting for once a week if the time allows it. We shall see how things go…
Well, time to run, more work to get done and maybe some sleep if that is possible.
Cheers and welcome to 2011!
What Happened to May?

The month of May has come and gone in the blink of an eye. I am trying to figure out where all the time has gone and what I have accomplished this month. Most of my time has been spent working, I am happy to be getting a steady paycheck again and not living off of my savings.
The month started off with the launch of the Tweet Tees online store. I then started work at La Tourelle Resort & Spa as the Internet Marketing Manager. I am now happy to announce that I am working with the Finger Lakes Tourism Alliance on a part-time basis doing a variety of web & graphic work. This past month has really been fruitful for me, and I couldn’t be happier.
In addition to work, I have made myself more visible online. I feel that this is key to my networking strategies and future business opportunities.
I think the biggest thing of all that has happened online (for me) during the month of May was the continual downtime of Twitter. I had a big rant all ready to record on Viddler, but I have decided to hold off for now. Frankly, I am more pissed with Steve Gillmor thinking that he knows everything and keeps bashing FriendFeed. The man doesn’t even know how to use a proper @ reply on Twitter. Just my two cents!
Ok, well May has been great and it’s over now. June brings hope and opportunity with it, maybe we will see Twitter become stabilized and Steve Gillmor finally stop bitching.
Cheers!
