Yes, Im still alive.
Things have been really crazy. Pizza Hut stressed me out a little bit over the last week... people quitting, training, and labor... lots of fun. I made some decissions that I seemingly took alot of heat for but I am still convinced I have made the right decissions.... and after tonight, I'm even more certain. Honestly, even though it has stressed me, I really enjoy that fact that I am given the oppritunity to step up to the plate like this. I hope that I can perform well in these situations, make the right decissions, and yes, hopefully, turn a few heads. I'm still not against a career at Pizza Hut.... I'm not against one at Computer Connections either. Right now I'm just sitting back and seeing what happens. I'm going to give both jobs my all and let the cards fall where they will. God will take care of me.... He has this far, He's not going to quit. Coming out of what was the most stressful part (even tho there still is plenty), I would not have traded that. The oppritunity and experience I gained through it all far surpasses the stress that I had. I actually feel good about my decissions.... and I hope that Steve and Dave see good in what I have done.... and give me guidance where I went wrong.
Things with Tiff are pretty good too. Honestly, as of this writing, everything is perfect across the board..... but just a few hours ago I hated myself. Why the change? Im not sure.... actually, Tiff said something to me right before she signed off tonight.... and it really made me feel good about who I was. There isn't (nor has there been) anything wrong with me and Tiff. Things were rocky in the last week.... but I wasnt myself..... but in the last few sentences she said to me.... I made a joke and she responded in a jokingly way.... but in a way that I knew she was serious.... well, she just really made me feel good about myself. I get to see her tomorrow night.... well, I guess it's technically tonight..... I'm looking forward to it! I love her so much!
Well, I am actually going to attempt to get some sleep tonight. I havent had a good sleep in a while.... and I'm sure to be up late tomorrow night..... er tonight er.... well, you know! Thanks everyone for your prayers! Thanks so much! Good night!

I love Tiffany! xoxo
Passion Opens Amid Controversy - InfoBeat Entertainment News

I was glad that I was able to see this amazing film on Wednesday night. Tiffany and I went to see it. The film was absolutely amazing! It really made you think. In at least 2 areas of the film I caught myself with tears running down my face. It was incredibly moving and I pray that it does show many what our Lord and Saviour went through for us. The suffering that Jesus' went through was for us. It was our sins that put Him on that cross. And he did it willingly.

There is still much controversy about the film. Many lash against it's violence. Yes, it is a very violent film ... but that is exactly what the crucifixion was. In fact, I believe that the actual event probably was still even more violent than the movie was. I pray for and thank Mel Gibson!

Also on wednesday night.... I was lucky enough not to recieve a traffic citation.... nah, I received 2! It was a bad trip back from Williamsport to Lock Haven to drop Tiffany off. My first citation happened in Williamsport close to Jersey Shore. The citation reads that I was doing 73 in a 55. After research, I find that a conviction of this speed is equal to 3 points on my record. The second citation was for "not stopping at flashing red lights" which resulted in cutting of a police cruiser (another 3 points). Ok, so cops arent happy when you cut them off. I actually sent the paper work today to both magistrates pleading not guilty. I had a huge debate in my mind about doing this, but it seems like the best route for me to take. I dont want to lie... I'm not about that. I was speeding.... and yes, I did cut off a cop. But I think there a circumstances in each instance that should be heard in court so this is the route I am going to take. I'm not going in to say I wasnt speeding. I'm not going in to say that I did not cut off the officer.... I just think there are things that need to be heard before I am convicted. If they hear my case and still find me guilty, so be it.

Well today leads me to VA. Jason and I have a lot of work to do down there. I'll be back sometime tomorrow. I'm gonna go get ready.

It's been a while since I blogged so I will try to update everyone the best that I can. Things have just been so hectic recently that I havent felt like writing anything.
Things are really confusing with everything in my life. A week or so ago I got my hours cut at Pizza Hut because our sales have been so low. I was not happy about this. It's not fair when you put years of service and effort into somewhere and then you get screwed and even the newest guys dont lose anything. I was really upset. Pizza Hut treats their shift managers like crap and I hate it. The good news is that our sales boosted in the last week. EXTREMELY high sales! This is good and may mean that Im going to get some hours back. There still are issues at Pizza Hut. The ironic thing is what Tiff has been dealing with me with recently. I really have been feeling completely worthless. Like I'm not worth anything to anybody, including her. She really started convincing me that I wasnt worthless and then a few incidents happen at Pizza Hut. Apparently employees have been telling Steve that I am inefficent and I stand around and not work alot. Maybe this may be an issue... I'm not sure. But no one felt like coming to me. I dont know if I have ever heard "Bob, your a good manager" ... I've heard it about other managers.... but not about me. And then, today, I get called in to work. It's Saturday... my only day I ever get off..... finally, after a week from hell I was getting ready to relax a day and just kinda blow of steam... was probably gonna go hit the slopes since the conditions are supposed to be really good today... but what am I doing? I'm going to be working at Pizza Hut.... why? because im too nice to say no and leave someone hanging.... but am I going to be appriciated? Probably not. Actually, I'll probably screw something up and just get told again how horrible I really am. I mean, I am gonna be waiting tables tonight so im sure i'll screw something up....
Computer Connections I guess is going ok. I tried to get full time there but that got denied... for now anyway. Thursday I got chewed out a couple times for something that wasnt even my fault.... I tried my best to just stay calm but I ended up getting really stressed out... so bad that for a while I totally lost vision in my one eye.
Dont get me wrong about everything. I am doing ok.... things between Tiff and I are getting better and I'm holding on to that. Yes, we still have a rocky relationship but we both love each other. I'm not really depressed per say... I'm making it and everything.... I just dont feel like I'm worth too much. Andit really makes me mad because Tiff almost had me convinced and then Pizza Hut has to go and ruin that. I wish I was appriciated.... anywhere and by anyone.
I guess I better get ready to go to work :(

All better! :)

Bowling: 187 147 190

Not a bad night. My phone number is now on my Verizon phone... Tiff and I are in good shape.... and the grand news of all is that we ended the week at Pizza Hut today with WAY above average sales!

For now, it's bed time! Good night!
