Cephiros, The One Winged Angel

So I am nearly complete with my move in to a temporary residence. This weekend has gone well. Hung out with some friends, talked about our future place we will be moving into. I tried to play a little Final Fantasy IV DS for over the weekend and decided that Golbez is freaking hard has hell with his damn barrier shift.

Moved around some of the stuff of the living room too clear out the space. Played some Dance Dance Revolution today. I was only worked out 412 calories instead of 650 like I wanted.

I need to head over to Borders sometime this week or weekend and pick up “The Road” and start reading it since I’ll be riding public transit once again.

Anyways, not much going on, just glad to be out of my apartment.

So, you might be wondered why I have no updated the blog and there seems to be missing entries. I deleted a bunch of entries because they were about a person I’ve decided to cut ouf my life completely. Life is more peaceful this way and no longer filled with as much drama.

So, I’m single again, I learned some new things, and next time I know how to proceed with relationships much better. The time is for me and my friends that are true and real that I hold dear. I am going to lose all that weight I gained back and lose even more. I am not doing this because I feel that I will be more attractive to women. I am doing it to be much healthier. I’m already cute and attractive as told by many of my female friends.

So, what’s going on in my life? I am moving out of my current residence and moving in with a friend for a short period of time. I am looking to find a residence with a couple other friends. I’m really excited about that chapter in my life. I have a wonderful new friend from New York that I’m getting to know. She is a really cool friend who has an awesome family. Well, it does help that she thinks I’m super cute! lol!

I am looking foward to stablizing my budget so I can pay back a friend what I owe her and work towards getting a tv and xbox 360 so I can get back into some gaming. I terribly miss playing Rockband and I have not even touched Rockband 2. I really wanted to be back into gaming because I’m currently an inactive writer over at Platform Nation. Found the next books I’m going to read, “The Road” and “Nick & Norah’s Infinite Playlist”

Is there anything else I’ve forgotten? Oh yeah, still fighting for a credit on my over draft fees with Washington Mutual because Best Buy double charged me and sent my account overdrawn. They are trying to tell me that Best Buy should give me back the overdraft fees when it was them that charged it. It I don’t get it back I will be leaving that bank for good.

The Last thing, I am the winner of Cyberpunks Gaming’s CPNK Award for Cyberpunks Gaming Podcast XXV. Very proud to have this and thank my friends over there, Simon DI and Micheal DI. Please check out their show over at Cyberpunks Gaming

Well my friends, that’s all for this update. I promise to try and post more into future.

While trying to setup a blog related application on my facebook and I find out my RSS feed is not working. So, I got to my site and I discover I am getting a 500 internal error. This is strange since I had not work on my blog for quite awhile and made no changes recently. So, backed up all my plugins, themes, images, and SQL database. Deleted the current installation. I was having some troubles after reinstalling but the issues are resolved now.

Became a writer over at Platform Nation and I posted my first review for Ticket to Ride. I am glad that I am given this chance to become better known in the gaming community and sharpen my writing skills. Check the site out. Lots of great people and many podcasts that are fun to listen to.

Looking foward to tomorrow being over with at work so my weekend can start. I will of course attempt to write here more now that I am car pooling to and from work. Remember, stay cool.

Last night I decided to upgrade to Firefox 3. I mean it is just a browser even if they say it’s a vast improvement over Firefox 2. However, when I upgraded I noticed it was taking bookmarks that were much older than my current ones. I finally discovered the reason for this was because I once installed a pre-release of Firefox 3.

After what seemed like hours upon hours. I finally resolved the issue.

Anyways, small update. Least I posted!

Today was a contrast of highs and lows. Even though I had very little sleep; I went to Circuit City because of a sale on 1600 Microsoft Point cards at $15! That’s a savings of twenty-five percent per card. I cleared out the whole stock at the Gateway Circuit City. $120 dollars worth of points for $90… Score! So far I haven’t spent any since I don’t want to go wild with my spending. I might pick one or two more but we’ll see.

On my way back to the MAX, I need to get some change for laundry since I wasn’t able to get any quarters on Friday or Saturday. It was a big pain in the ass. Two dollars from the Fred Meyer’s customer service counter. The rest I already had or got from putting dollars bills in a soda and pushing in the change return button.

Laundry was started relatively late in the day since the laundry rooms get quite busy on Sundays. However, the dryers were a little difficult in finding an empty one until around 3pm. Everything was completely finished near 5pm; I went down to the laundry room to get my clothes and I returned to my front door. Bah, I didn’t bring my keys and I accidently locked my door. FUCK! FUCKETY FUCK! Ok, breath in, breath out. I was able to get back in thanks to my girl, Chandelle but after nearly two hours outside.

I think I found a domain name for my new video game blog. I also think I found the perfect Wordpress theme as well. After I flesh out my budget a little then I will register the new domain names and start the new site construction.

That’s all folks!

Ok, This is my second attempt of making this blog post. So, I was hanging out with my friend Bob last week and we were playing some Rockband 7 card stud low7 card stud handsonline poker softwareonline poker bonuspoker videofree texas holdem poker download,free holdem line poker texas,free texas holdem pokergambling pokerfree online poker gamefree poker game downloadfree on line pokeramerican black card credit expressvisa credit card application formus bank credit cardno credit card application,no credit credit card applicationconsolidating credit card debtconsolidate credit card billcard credit machine processingach and credit card processingcredit card debt consolidation oregonbank secured credit card,well fargo bank secured credit cardfree prepaid credit cardbad card creditchase credit card servicescard credit online processing software,card credit free processing software,credit card processing softwareguaranteed acceptance credit card ukcard credit login mbnaapply business card credit onlinebank card credit orchard paymentcalculator card consolidation credit lo,credit card consolidation calculator,calculator card consolidation credit loa ?credit card processing service,card credit merchant processing service,card credit processing servicecredit card processing terminalvalid credit card numbers,discover credit card phone number,credit card numberscard credit debt reducingpremier bank credit cardcard consolidation credit debt reductionno annual fee credit card,annual card credit fee no secured,annual card credit fee no rewardcard credit machine processing,credit card processing machinecard cheap credit ukcheaper credit card ukcard credit debt negotiationcard credit mart wal,pay on wal mart credit card,wal mart credit card onlineunsecured credit card debt consolidation,card consolidation credit debt unsecurednational city bank credit card,bank card city credit national securedapplication canadian card credit visaprovidian credit card application,application card credit providianhsbc credit card account,hsbc credit card india,card credit hsbccard credit debt elimination informationshell gas credit cardcredit card free balance transferlow fixed interest credit card and other video games and such. He told me almost every Friday he and a bunch of his friend go out to Karaoke.

So, I was thinking least once, maybe twice a month.. have a Rockband Friday. Have some beer, some pizza and play some Rockband. Someone on drums, bass, lead, and mic. I have almost all of the downloaded content. We get to play on my 42″ LCD HDTV. I will have a real excuse to clean up *EVERYTHING*.

I was thinking of hosting the first Rockband Friday on March 14th, 2008. Let me know what you think of this? You can email me at cephiros.matsuri@gmail.com

So, I know I haven’t updated any of blogs for quite a long time. I mean I always thought about updating

it earlier but never got around to it. Things have changed her a bit. I’ve been taking a break from my exercising/diet for a bit as a sort of gift to myself for doing so well. Tomorrow, 10/24/07 is when I will resume it

I’ve been dating a wonderful girl named Chandelle. I really care about her. We’ve been dating for a week and everything has been good. Yes, I did meet her from craigslist so it’s not a totally worthless website. Some positive things, although rare do happen from time to time. Mwah to you, hon!

I’ve been out sick for the past 2 days. I have some sort of eye infection that hurts. I went to the doctor today and I got some eye drops. However, not happy that I spend 120 dollars and out of work for 2 days. I hope I still keep my job cause I was truly ill. I have a doctor’s note just in case.

Not much has changed except dating my wonderful girlfriend.

I know, I know, it has been awhile since I updated the blog. Sometimes I get busy and sometimes I get lazy. However, deal with it, this isn’t the fucking Truman show.

Weight Update: 221 pounds - 31 pounds last so far.

Last Monday, had my first Aikido class and I loved it. It was a wonderful work out and I quite enjoy it so far as well as learning a new thing.

Friday: Hung out with Christa, Chris, Alex, and Nate and another girl’s name that I’ve lost… We played Dungeons and Dragons with Drinking. I played a dwarf cleric.. named Dorf Derrick Dwarf Cleric.. He had some pretty shitty stats but he was the life of the party. He was comedic gold that night. Went cheap that night and had some Miller High Life. don’t you know it’s the champagne of beer! =P We called an early night cause Christa some person business to attend to and I was just really tired.

Saturday: Went out to dinner and a movie with Joy and Lee. The movie we saw was Feast of Love. A romance drama that was really good. Morgan Freeman was great in it and it was filmed in Portland. I don’t remember where we went to dinner but it was expensive but good.. Necephblogort something I think.

Sunday: Reconnected with my friend Kitten. We kinda had a failure to launch our friendship and such last time because I just wasn’t a good spot in my life at the time. We went to the Kennedy school and saw Harry Potter & The Order of the Phoenix. I love this series! The food was pretty good too. After that we went around downtown for awhile. She is looking cute and beautiful as usual. I think we’ll hang more often now. Least I hope.

So, there’s your wonderful update :). Now get out of here! Just kidding.

So, here’s the weekend update.. only 2 days late this time!

Weight update: As of 9/15/07, 223.5 pounds, lost 5.5 pounds last week, with a total lost of 28.5 pounds in the last 2.5 months. Hey, I like this progress and I am very proud of myself. I didn’t know I had to will power to this until one day I decided to just do it and here I am now.

Friday & Saturday: These day were spent hanging with the Friend of Epic Win, Christa, we played video games, for the most part, watched some videos on Youtube, listen to some music. Played beatmania IIDX, DDR, Keyboardmania (which sucks) and Guitar Hero. Of course, when were playing DDR, she used the controller while I used the Cobalt flux dance pad.

Saturday night, we met at Hobo’s while she and her friend were having dinner and we head over to Ground Kontrol for some DDR that night. We didn’t stay long since their legs were tired from walking all the way from Washington Park and I just didn’t have it in me to play more than 3 games.  I liked her friend from High school, I forgot his name so I hope they forgive me for that memory loss. However, a guy who is funny, smart, and plays DDR is a friend of mine.

Sunday was the usual lazy day of watching tv, doing my laundry and finished up season 1 of Battlestar Galactica. I can’t wait to get Season 2 from my Netflix queue. Also, almost done with Season 5 of Queer of Folk which is not shaping up to be that great. Arrested Development Season 1 coming up in my queue too.

The Job is going well, last week, I made 309 costing tickets and 2% overall error rate. I made 4 errors on two reports today so I think it going up again for this week and I don’t know if I will get to my projected goal of 350 tickets. Starting next report week I will get my own logins.

Hey all, sorry for not updating for nearly 2 weeks. First of all, you’re probably wondering how the diet is going. Still going strong, still have not had regular soda for going on 2 1/2 months.

September 1st, 2007 - 230.5 pounds
September 8th, 2007 - 229 pounds
Total Weight Lost So far - 23 pounds

I did not have much money on Labor day weekend so I did not do much except watch some tv, play some video games, and went to Becky’s BBQ on Sunday. Met a few hot trangender women from Trans-ponder, Mila & Jayna along with their friend Mandy. Some of our other friends were there and I got to see my puppy, Aeris. I miss her alot. Overall it was a great evening.

Last weekend was great as well. Hung out with Christa and other friends at the Ambassador Restaurant on 47th and Sandy. It was my friend Joy’s birthday along with some of her co-workers and her other friends. I had 3 AMFs, got pretty wasted and yes, I did bust my Karaoke cherry. I sang 99 Red Balloons with Joy.

Was supposed to go to the Widmer Oktoberfest at the Widmer brewery but those plans were canceled because she was not feeling well because of a bad headache. Completely understandable, so instead I straighten up the apartment a little and took a nap among other things.

Sunday was a lazy day, took a nap, did laundry and bought some groceries. That’s about it.

Today… well today I went the Muse Concert because last week my friend Bob gave me his ticket since he could not make it because of work. I meet up with Christa but we only saw each other for like 10 minutes since we were in different parts of the concert hall.

Muse was great, for not knowing much of their music, it was really fucking good. I am want to get more of their albums and of course I will see them again once they come back to Portland.

However, it is now time to move onto a new topic. Emotional one so bear with me or don’t read it.

Between the end of the second opening band and the beginning of the Muse. I felt really lonely. I’ve been feeling rather lonely for quite awhile. I mean, here I was at a concert of a band I don’t know too well with no one else there I knew on the ground floor. Sure, My friend Christa was there but we only hung out for maybe 10 minutes at the most.

Seeing all the couples.. it affected my loneliness. I’ve been single for nearly a year. I’ve tried meeting people for dating on Craigslist with no fucking luck. Other dating sites have not proved useful as well. I cannot get out as often as I would like because of my job works me from 8:15am to 4:45pm, Monday through Friday.

I’ve been on this diet because I thought I was/still unattractive to most women out there. I mean sure I’ve lost weight and that’s good for me. I dunno, I am thinking maybe there’s something wrong with me. I just miss having someone around, to talk to, hang out with, be intimate with, kiss, caress and cuddle with. I was really emotional at the show. Before Muse came on, I had to fight back tears cause I was thinking about this alot… it was rather depressing.

I am trying to optimistic, expand my social network, gather more friends, go out and do more. All in all it has been a sucess but I have not found anyone for an romantic interest. *sigh* Sorry about that. Had to let it out.
