Bored

Sometimes I am so freaking bored with life! My regular day goes something like this:

6am Wake up
630am Work Out
730am Get ready for work
830am Leave for work
900am arrive to work
1000am Break
1015am back to work
1200 Lunch
1230pm back to work
330pm Break
345pm back to work
500-530pm leave work
600pm get home take care of the dogs
630pm chat on the phone, watch a movie, read a book or play of face book
900pm get ready for bed
1000-1100pm go to bed


Where is the adventure? Where is the excitement? I am freaking bored!!! If life is what you make of it,.. I need to find a way to make money without having to work or go into a career that is all about adventure,.. I could become a treasure hunter like Lora Croft or pursue a career as a cage master (not sure if that is the official title),.. for those that dive with great white sharks.

maybe this is just the bad weather talking or the fact that I have not seen or played in the sun for almost a month now.

I need a new hobby, I need warmth and I need to be outside!!!

I am a CHAMPION!!

It had been a long morning and I was getting hungry, I clocked out to go to lunch. Brittainy was waiting for me, we were going to head down to the gym for our 15 minute mini lunch workout and then get something to eat. Before heading to Brittainy's desk I decided to use the restroom. Right before heading through the door to the girls room I hear my name being yelled. "TAYLOR, TAYLOR!!" I turned around and Dave my supervisor was standing across the room. "TAYLOR I really need to talk to you" But Dave I said, I am already clocked out for lunch we'll talk when I come back. "No, I really need to talk to you, after your done in there (the restroom) come back and talk to me. Geesh ok Dave,... I thought I was in trouble or something.

I walked back to Dave's desk and asked what was so important, "Oh shoot, what was it?" Oh serious Dave you run after me, yell my name, say its urgent and when I come back you forget, K well I am off to lunch, I am sure you will remember when I am back? "No, wait it was really important, I just need a minute" Ugh Okay,.... a minute passes. Chop Chop Buttercup!!! Finally frustrated at my time being wasted I gave him an ultimatum. Alright Dave I am giving you one for minute,.. and if you don't remember the we will talk when I am back.

Kevin walked by another supervisor and Dave said Kevin do you remember what I need to talk to Terah about? Kevin thought for a second and said "well Terah, your working this weekend right?" Yes, I do! Well, then you need to workout the alt days off with Allee, the other lead also working this weekend. Okay... I said. As I said this several other supervisors and managers started coming over. I said hi to everyone and then announced I was off to lunch. Dave quickly said "Umm Terah, stick around for a minute" I had no idea for what....

Darren began to speak, "Terah, we just wanted to congratulate you!! You are this weeks Champion of the week!!" He went on about how great I am... :) I am a Lead and our duties have recently been changed. What we do now is answer calls from the floor reps to answer questions and take escalations. Apparently I had taken 100 more calls then any of the other leads!! Woo Hoo!!

That's right, I am a Champion!!

Day 1 of 365.

I am so excited for 2009!!


My biggest challenge in life is the infamous "Procrastination". Procrastination has been caught red handed and is up for trial. I have been elected judge and jury and my verdict for Procrastination,... THE DEATH PENELTY!!

What,.. or Who I Want,.. but not currently looking for.

Mr. Right:





1- Personality,.. I want to laugh,.. a lot! I LOVE guys, that I can talk to and joke with. He would be as random as I am, and he will appreciate me even when I have my ADD creative moments. His friends and family would describe him as caring, spiritual, creative and fun.





2- Family, this is really really important to me,.. I need my Man to have a great relationship with his family AND they must love me! Extended family a big bonus here,.. the more the merrier!!






3- Money, I want my man to be financially secure,.. I want to walk into a relationship with a great start and not with something to worry about.




4- Looks, My man is hot!! and their is chemistry,.. enough said.

To Come,..

I have been thinking about.... moving out of Utah.
It will not be for a while,.. meaning not for about a year.
However, It has been something I have been thinking about.


Now, the question is where???






Well, to start off, I need mountains!! When I visit mountain-less states I have no sense of direction and I just feel weird, like something is missing. Mountains are a must!! Hiking, Camping, Photography, Animal watching, and Exploring!!!








I love watching Ocean nature programs! Marine Biology was my favorite subject in school. I love scuba diving and all the water sports, I have so far tried. I have never lived near an ocean, but I believe I would love living near the ocean. Swimming, Scuba Diving, Boating, Water Skiing, Exploring!!









Some place with a lot of sun,.. I love warmer weather,.. about 70-90 degrees all year!! :)















Ohhh I got it!! How about....

The Punishment of Dave!

This is Hilarious,...

This morning, I found a Cherry Coke on my desk,.. odd,.. but I just pushed it aside and did not think much of it. Dave, My supervisor, who also sits right next to me, picked up the coke and asked me, if I had put it on his desk this morning?? Ah, so that's why it was on my desk...
Apparently, someone has been leaving random soda's on his desk. He ranted about the anonymous soda gifts for about a min or two,.. half of which I tuned out so I am not really able to give exact quotes here.

~Any who, after Dave left work today, I happened to walk past an empty desk, and on this desk sat a can of Mountain Dew. The brat that I am decided to pick it up and place it on Dave's desk,.. HE HE HE. After his morning rant, I couldn't help it.

Dave ended up popping back to work unexpectedly and saw the can of Mountain Dew on his desk!! .. Again, he ranted!! I tuned this out as well, however it was something like "See!! why are they doing this?, It's a different Soda every time!" or something like that.

Well,... I not being the type to let things drop, I got the whole team to help me place sodas on his desk. OH I crack myself up!!

2009 Resolutions, starting Now!!

I can sum up the year 2008 in one word CHANGE! It has been bad change, change that felt bad even though it was really for the best and good change. Either way there was a lot of it, and change can be stressful when you resist it the way I do. It has been a stressful year and I am actually glad it will be over,.. I hope 2009 will be a little more comfortable and stagnate. I however know this will not be the case as I have goals in place for 2009 which involve yet again major change.

I plan on selling my Townhome and moving into an apartment. This will cut my housing costs in half and will give me a nice chunk of equity. I am taking this plan slow, the market is slow and I would like top dollar. I have set the target date to be ready to list by March 2009, hopefully the economy has turned around a bit. Once listed who knows how long it will be on the market before it actually sells. I have some more painting before it looks top notch,.. I love decorating!

I plan on selling my car and this goal is dependant on the sell of the Townhome. I plan on taking the equity and spending 2-4k to buy an older outright. This will save me a $300 car payment and will lower my insurance rates.

Another major goal for 2009 is physically I want to be healthy and strong. I have started the P90X program, Amazing and WOW, hard. I have had to work up to being able to do the full weekly program, even now I get really excited when I accomplish the whole video. I am getting less sore and I am starting to have a lot more energy. I have also changed my diet to exclude “junk food” Soda, sugar and hydrogenated oil. <> I have added multi vitamins, vitamin C, more water, Omega 3 oils and whole live foods to my diet. Finding new products daily,.. new find apple cider vinegar, I will Blog about it, if I see a big result.
