Mar 5, 2013A few weeks ago, Woot featured a NEW Blue Yeti microphone for $84 with $5 shipping. I simply could NOT pass on the offer. I ended up ordering one because my intent is to use it for a podcast I’d like to start on one of my websites.
I haven’t yet tried it and in fact it’s still sitting in it’s box but I’m really excited to see how well it works. I still have some cleaning to do in the office which is why I’ve held off on setting it up but you can definitely expect a review once I’ve used it!
Feb 22, 2013I decided to do some housecleaning which meant checking for broken links, updating information, and removing the Dailybooth picture I had on the sidebar. I also changed the font to give the layout more of a different feel. Hopefully, I’ll have a new layout within the next few weeks in addition to a change of content.
In the meantime, I am holding a giveaway on my personal blog: Paradoxical Me which you should all check out. There’s a little over 9 days to enter so I encourage you to do before it’s too late!
Paradoxical.Me is giving away one travel sized blogging planner.

So I know it’s been ages since I blogged and I haven’t really shown much interest in this blog. Reason being is because I have a new personal blog: Paradoxical which I have been using semi-regularly.
I do still plan on keeping TQB, however there will be some changes. This blog is going to be more of an opinionated blog about the crap that pisses me off. I have already requested a revamp so a new design will be in the works in the next couple of weeks.
Until then, please feel free to hit up my personal blog!

Life lately has been interesting. I’ve made some new friends who have managed to preoccupy me from work and made my day a little more bearable. I’m listening to music again, something I used to love doing but stopped for some reason or another. I can’t really say. Either way, this is one of my favorite songs from Kate Voegele. Definitely worth giving it a listen.
So the story goes on down
The less traveled road
It’s a variation on
The one I was told
And although it’s not the same
It’s awful close, yeah
In an ordinary fairy tale land
There’s a promise of a perfect happy end
And I imagine having just short of that
Is better than nothing
So you’ll be mine
Forever and almost always
And I’ll be fine
Just love me when you can
And I’ll wait patiently
I’ll wake up every day
Just hoping that you still care
In the corner of my mind I know too well
Oh that surely even I deserve the best
But instead of leaving
I just put the issue to bed
And outta my head
Oh and just when I believe
You’ve changed for good
Well you go and prove me wrong
Just like I knew you would
When I run out of second chances
You give me that look
And you’re off the hook
Because you’re mine
Forever and almost always
And I’m fine
Just love me when you can
And I’ll wait patiently
I’ll wake up every day
Just hoping that you still care
Oh, what am I still doing here?
Oh, it’s all becoming so clear
You’ll be mine
Forever and almost always
It ain’t right to just love me when you can
Oh I won’t wait patiently
Or wake up everyday
Just hoping that you’ll still care
Forever and almost always
No it ain’t right
To just love me when you can, baby
Ain’t gonna wait patiently
I won’t wake up everyday
Just hoping that you still care

Let’s face it– my last few blogs have been meager– to put it nicely and as per standard I’m full of excuses as to why, but I won’t get into that. Instead, let’s do a brief update on what’s been going on the past few months.
Work is… well it’s work. It’s frustrating and tiresome and there are days when I simply want to just lay in bed under the covers and never come out. I suppose we all have days like that at some point, unfortunately I find that I am having many more days like that and recognize that it is probably time for me to take a break but truth be told, taking a break only prevents me from completely and utterly breaking down; it doesn’t actual solve the underlying issue but I digress.
Life is, well life. Nothing overly interesting, other than Robby and I having our house back again. No more roommates, just us. It’s nice, actually. I thought I’d be miserable and lonely but honestly? I love it. Plus there’s the fact that I get to walk around naked again; though if I’m honest I haven’t actually been really doing it that much. I guess I’ve just gotten used to having to dress in the morning so it’s hard to break that habit.
It’s probably a good thing as my little sister has plans to move in with us this summer and continue her education out here. I’m excited actually. It’s kind of funny that growing up I hated her and thought she was obnoxious and bratty but I find that now that she’s older we have quite a lot in common and we seem to understand each other’s interests better than the other members of our family. It’s probably one of the reasons she chose to move out with us over my other sister. Nonetheless, I can’t wait!
Let’s see… what else?
Oh! Robby and I are trying to get pregnant. This month’s the first official month but I have a feeling that with my increase stress level it’s just not going to happen. I did make some changes in my diet though. I no longer drink caffeine. I am eating more fruits and vegetables. I have stopped mixing carbohydrates with protein 95% of the time and I am trying to gain weight; though unsuccessfully because I have not yet gotten back to drinking my nutritional supplements which seemed to help me in the past. I’ll start up again eventually but I’m just trying to get my body re-accustomed to eating 3 meals a day again since I have the tendency to snack throughout the day killing my appetite.
Overall, I’d say I’m 80% satisfied with my life. A lot of the dissatisfaction is a direct result of things I cannot control at work but I’m hoping eventually that will change. I would promise to blog more but I’m not going to pretend that’s going to be the case. Life tends to get ahead of me sometimes; more often than not.
