Follow me, but be warned, there are pitfalls, speedbumps, spontaneous detours, and often deadends. Oh and I tend to be a lead foot so you might find yourself flying and then coming to abrupt stops.ShyTrbleMakerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03178655654497551130noreply@blogger.comBlogger91100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3944452901007081574.post-8089542324688091662008-08-29T10:53:00.000-07:002008-08-29T10:55:53.445-07:00

Well I still have my day job (but that may fall through so if you've got leads!?) - and I'm just a baby, nearly virgin of the blogosphere, but some people DO make their living off the blogs. So help a brother/sister/blogger out and click it! Page views are GOD in the making-a-living-off-the-internet world. At least until they find a better way to track the metrics. So Click-through! Keep those

Yeah I get that most of the gamers out there are guys. And I get that guns and people with penises just seem to go together but really, did they have to be made so.... graphically similar? I mean really look at them (the blue things are the guns!)It was all I could not to laugh when we put the "guns" on the ships. Seriously! I guess I'm the only one who found it at all amusing. I'm glad I didn't

notice the part I at the top? That's cause I'm hoping there will be a part II, III, IV etc. Because I'm having a heck of a lot of fun playing all these games. Of course I may not blog EVERY time, but it is fun to take note of the games I've played and how I felt about the experience.Game one: Setllers of Cataan Since this is my first game post, and I LOVE this game and never get to talk about it,

One of my currents hats is as an "analyst" for a sales&marketing department of a print (loosely defined) product - yes I mean newspaper. With the changes in the way advertising is being handled now I've had a lot to think about and muse on. This is my musings - it is not based on pure date - it is me... thinking aloud. This post: http://kalsey.com/2008/02/social_advertising_failings/ became a

There is no anniversary, it's not her birthday, it is no special occasion fraught with memories. It's just a day, like any other, yet my heart is breaking more than ever. Not quite sure why I'm feeling the need for mommy-love, well my chaotic life maybe, but I am aching with need to be held and to be able to just talk to her.It's odd, we had a fairly crappy relationship - always butting heads

Age 10: music was the highlight of my day. There was this red velvet sound chair - couldn't find a picture but it was this chair that wrapped over the top kind of like a half egg shell. Loved to listen to my mom's records in it. Or I could be found in my room with the headphones on bopping to my music - yeah I admit I listened to Shaun Cassidy, but I also liked Elvis, and Cat Stevens.Highschool:

So I'm supposed to be keeping going on this. That's my promise to msyelf (yes I do talk to myself and I answer too!). So for today, I'm going to think about where I'm going with this whole process. For it is a process. I want to look at who the heck I am and how did I get here. Part of this whole "soul searching" came about because all of a sudden I feel so different than I did say last year at

Crooked channels can also apply to the convuluted nature of my thought process. Being an adult with ADHD I don't always know where my brain is headed. Seems like a lot of times my brain is going nice and logically down the correct path and boom, I'm sidetracked. Seriously hate that! I'll be cooking and concentrating then something distracts me and I'm like.. where did I put that spoon I was

So here I am (at 40) deciding that I'm completely surprised by my life as it is today. I've decided it's time to journey to find myself. If you're reading this, you're probably a complete stranger, since as of now this isn't posted or linked to my other blogs. Welcome, hang in there, because it's probably going to get really messy.Crooked channel has multiple meanings - one is that it's a take
