My girlfriend and I were over at a friend of ours’ house this past weekend and I was having some fun with their Playstation 3 console. My girlfriend saw how much I enjoyed it and actually went out and picked up a Playstation 3 for me while I was at work yesterday. I would have never expected her to do anything like that, but I sure am glad she did. Now she’s going to have nobody but herself to blame when I stay up all night playing video games and get fired for showing up to work late because I slept through my alarm.

I’ve been looking around online for a decent source of cat supplies and other pet supplies and I recently stumbled onto JeffersPet.com. They have a nice selection of products and their prices really seem great. I’m about to order a few items from their $2.00 menu and some other things. I can’t believe I’ve never been to this website before. I guess I’ll know where to go from now on.

Lately I’ve been thinking bout investing into Wilmington NC real estate. A friend of mine tells me that the real estate in Wilmington North Carolina is going to go way up in value and that I should get in while I can. I don’t really have enough savings to really invest in anything major and I don’t know if I want to take out a loan or mortgage to do it. It seems like a very nice opportunity, though.

Lately I’ve been trying to finish some home improvement projects in my spare time. I ordered some new bathroom faucets and some other things but I haven’t had a chance to install them yet. My girlfriend won’t let me hear the end of it until everything is done. So far I’ve replaced our kitchen sink and garbage disposal, 2 toilets and added some outdoor lighting. It’s amazing how much of a difference that some little improvements can make in the look of a house.

I’ve been calling around getting life insurance quotes from various life insurance companies and I think I’m ready to take out another policy. I don’t plan on anyone knowing about the new policy until I die and they get the papers for it. I’m thinking about going with a $200,000 policy, since I received a decent life insurance quote through a company that I did some computer work for. I just like the thought of my family being covered if something ever happens to me.

One of the other managers in my office recently asked me to place an order for some office supplies from one of the distributors we go through. He didn’t really specify what he wanted me to order, so I just went around the office checking out what we needed and what we were running low on. I’ll probably endup ordering the wrong stuff. He should have told me what to order.

I’m thinking about taking a nice little vacation this summer with my girlfriend. We’ve been budgeting and planning for a nice vacation for about 2 years now and I really think it’s time we took the plunge and cashed it in. We’ve been talking about going to either Las Vegas or Florida. I really enjoy going to Las Vegas, the atmosphere and everything is just very nice. I also like being outside and around at night, so Las Vegas is the perfect city for me. On the other hand, I’ve never been to Florida and it looks like it could be fun to just hang out on the beach and sip Margaritas for a couple of weeks. We’ll see.

I’ve been reading a lot about self defense products lately. I’ve got a bit of an addictive personality, so when I get into something, like knives or anything like that, I tend to REALLY get into it and become almost obsessed with it. My girlfriend keeps having to remind me that im not in “Black Ops” and don’t need to have a closet full of weapons.
