I have been reading the book, Advertising Profits From Home by Anthony Morrison and I must say the book so far is good. I can’t wait to be able to finally make money from home. It will be a good start to something big, hopefully. I am trying to eliminate myself from negative people and places. I have to surround myself by positive people and I think I can do that. However, I have been around negative people my whole life and I kind of got used to being negative but Anthony says in his book that we should surround ourselves by positive people, so that’s what I’m going to do. He doesn’t guarantee that we will be rich from doing what he says in the book but there is potential to make an income using his methods. I haven’t finished reading the book but I’m thinking that some of the stuff he teaches in his book is some of the stuff I have already tried but just didn’t look too deeply into before. He talks about Google and Twitter and how to make an income using those sites.

Get Rich Schemes
I know you have all seen those get rich quick schemes online. They promise that you will make tons of money and become rich, maybe even millionaires. They simply just want you to pay for something so they can get your money and then when you get the stuff they are selling you never really make money anyway. If I could have a dime for every get rich quick scheme I’ve ever tried I’d probably have a lot of money right now. Anything that asks you for money most likely isn’t worth it. However, my wife recently paid for Anthony Morrison’s two books and DVD’s. I think what he has to say in his books is true and maybe paying a price to learn it isn’t so bad at all. If I can make some extra money then why not. You can do it too. It isn’t hard and all you need is a computer and the internet. The power of the internet today is so great with the vast amounts of information that you can find online these days. The money is in the internet but you juts have to figure out how to make money using it. In Anthony’s book it tells you how to do so. Once I learn how to make money online I will share my knowledge with you. I have to see whether this works or if this is just another get rich quick scheme. It could work, there is potential to make money advertising and doing affiliate marketing on the internet. I’ve heard of affiliate marketing before but just never knew what it was and now I’m going to learn and then share my knowledge with you.

What’s Been Going On Lately
Well, Deborah and I split up and I moved back in with my parents. So I now live with my parents at their house. However, Deborah and I are back to talking and I’ve been staying at her house sometimes. She still doesn’t trust me like she used to and I know that will take some time for her to trust me again. I have to earn her trust back. The internet got cut off at her house so she’s been coming to my parents house to use the internet. Eugene hates not having the internet because he gets bored a lot, which I can understand. Funny thing that the check that I was missing from the VA finally came. It was supposed to come in March and it just came because it got sent to the old address. We got Eugene a kitten which is all white but has a little gray on its head. Its a he cat and his name is Spartacus. I think that’s how you spell it. I don’t know how Eugene is spelling it. Deborah signed us up for something to make money at home and we have started reading the books and we are going to follow what it says. Its going to be hard since the internet got cut off at Deborah’s house. We are going to have to do it from my mom and dads house. Deborah had her friends Terri and Beverly staying at her house for awhile. They were fun to have around the house. They helped clean and cook and do all kinds of stuff around the house that needed to be done. Deborah is watching Avatar which is a good movie. I like how that movie turned out. Deborah and I have been watching a lot of movies because since the internet got cut off so did the cable. That is one thing I like about being at mom and dads house is the fact that there is internet and cable. If it got cut off there I don’t know what I would do. It would suck big time but I doubt it would get cut off there because that is all dad does is watch TV and sleep. He would be so lost without the TV, lol. I watched the movie The Children’s Hour for the first time. That was a good movie and Audrey Hepburn was exceptionally good looking and a great actress in that movie and so was Shirley McClain. However I didn’t like how the movie turned out because Shirley’s character ended up hanging herself. I wish they would have been together, that is how I wanted the movie to turn out but oh well. Mollee has taken a liking to the kitten Spartacus. They play together and sleep together. Spartacus is laying on the bed right now sleeping. Mollee is of course looking out the window. She likes it outside, of course I think it is very hot outside and I don’t see why she wants to go out there especially with all the fur she has on her. Its hot outside, but of course I’d rather be hot then cold so I don’t mind the heat so much. Deborah has the air conditioner on in the kitchen and I think it gets cold during the day in this house and at night. When I wake up in the morning though I’m normally sweating. That’s only if I stay here. I don’t stay here too often, I mostly come visit my animals. I miss my animals. I wish I could take them back to my parents house with me but Elizabeth said that it would be best not to move them around too much and I guess she is right. They like it at Deborah’s house so that’s where they should stay. I don’t want to move them to mom and dads house and later find out that it was a mistake to move them. Beside’s the fact that Munchkin used to get beat up at mom and dads house by other cats.
Deborah and I went to the Vegetarian Festival for Magazine33. We had a good time. It was a lot of fun. Michael Ponzini was there and he took lots of photos. He even took a photo of Deborah and I that we didn’t realize he had taken but the photos came out good. Deborah thinks she looks fat in her photo but I don’t think so. Check below to see the photos Michael took of us.

We also won the raffle for the energy drinks. They had a stand that had energy drinks which has nutrients that give vegetarians what they need that they don’t get since they don’t eat meat. That’s why the energy drink people were at the festival. The lady running it said they don’t often come to the festivals but since it was a vegetarian festival that’s why they came. So yeah we won the raffle and she is sending us a case of the energy drinks in the mail which is so cool. I don’t win stuff very often. I haven’t won something since I won something off the radio that one day that I skipped school, and that was a long time ago. We got all kinds of free stuff at the Vegetarian Festival. We also bought stickers for our cars, pit-bull stickers. The food wasn’t bad either. We had some good lemonade as well, the lemonade was freshly squeezed. The bands playing were pretty good. One band was an oldies band and I didn’t know any of the music they were playing. They were a cover band of course and they were playing Eddie Cochran. I have never heard of Eddie Cochran before so I wasn’t so much into their music as I was say the reggae band. The reggae band was slamming. I loved their music mostly because I like reggae music and I love Bob Marley and they sounded like Bob Marley. Riverside Drive was there at the Vegetarian Festival as well and they sounded good. They played at Shamrock The Block festival too back a couple months ago. They must like to play festivals a lot. Its good exposure for them and good press coverage for them. I should do an interview with Riverside Drive since they played at both festivals and we covered both festivals. I’m going to have to get in touch with them and ask them about an interview. That will be my next interview. I still need to start Shaun Jeas interview. I’m going to be doing an interview with Shaun Jeas even though I’ve already done an interview with him before. He is coming out with a new album and I’m going to cover his progress in his music. I should be working on his interview in fact. I need to interview Mr. Sin again but separately from Shaun Jeas. Marcus Helton aka Mr. Sin just had a baby and it would be interesting seeing his progress in his music. I think it would be good to interview both of them again. I have some people in mind that I want to interview, I just need to get back in the game and set up the interviews.

Busy Day, Busy Life
Well, its been awhile since I last wrote a blog. I have made some changes to my life recently. The biggest change I have made is that I quit smoking. Life without a cigarette sure isn’t easy at all. Let me tell ya, I thought it would be easy just quitting but it hasn’t been at all. Deborah quit smoking too. I woke up this morning wanting a cigarette. I always had routines that I would go through and cigarettes were always involved in that routine. Bear called this morning and wanted me to pick him up from Bank of America and wanted me to take him to run some errands. So that kept me busy for most of the day. I picked Bear up from Bank of America and then he wanted me to take him to the cab company that he used to work for because he had to pay his cab tab. Then he was hungry but I wanted to go get has before we got something to eat so he put in 10 bucks into my gas tank and then I told him he should try Kathy’s restaurant because he had never eaten there before. Well, since we were eating at Kathy’s I didn’t want to exclude Deborah. Deborah loves eating at Kathy’s and it was always our thing to eat there. So we went and hurried up and got Deborah. Deborah had I’m guessing just mowed the lawn or been working in the yard because she was all hot and sweaty and her face was red. She changed her shirt and hopped in the car with us and we headed to Kathy’s restaurant to eat. We got to Kathy’s and Bear was impressed by the menu. He was really hungry. He had sounded like he was hungry from the beginning. I had two eggs, some home fried potatoes, some bacon and of course had it all with ranch dressing. I love the ranch dressing they have there. Its really good. Deborah ate pancakes as usual. She loves the pancakes at Kathy’s. Bear had an omelet and pancakes. He was very impressed by the food. I didn’t eat all mine so I had to take a carry out. That’s me though, always taking a carry out. I like to enjoy my food and don’t like to waste any, I like taking it home and eating the rest of it. After we ate at Kathy’s Bear had more errands he had to run. We had seen a yard sale which was near our house and we went and took him to the yard sale. They had lots of books for sale so Bear bought a bunch of good books to read. Then after the yard sale we went to Walmart. We dropped Bear off at Walmart and we went to Woodrow because Deborah needed to go talk to Joe Fangman. We went to Woodrow but Joe had taken a lunch break so we were unable to see him but she did stop to Mrs. Brown. Mrs. Brown is cool, she is one of the best teachers there at Woodrow. Deborah was telling Mrs. Brown how I was taking a math class and Mrs. Brown suggested asking Mrs. Gold if she had something that could teach me how to do fractions so we went and saw Mrs. Gold. Mrs. Gold printed off some stuff for me to learn and then we left Woodrow and went back to Walmart. Bear wasn’t outside waiting for us so we parked and went inside and I called him. He said he was getting laundry bags so I assumed he was in the laundry aisle. I had to explain to Deborah what Bear said so she could figure out where he was at. I don’t always feel so smart. I felt kind of dumb not knowing where he was. Walmart is a big store though. We eventually found him and he was getting ready to check out. After Walmart we took Bear to the bank so he could get some money. Then after the bank we took him home. Deborah and I came home and decided to go take a nap. We slept for a little bit then we woke up and I called dad to ask him if he wanted to go to the park which he did, which was cool and I was glad. We both took a shower then headed over to mom and dads house. We picked dad up and then we headed to Staunton. I stopped at Burger King to get me something to eat then I went to Taco Bell so Deborah could get something to eat and then we stopped at Hardees to get dad something to eat and then we headed to the park. We ate our food at the park and then went back to mom and dads. I let Zeus out to go pee and poop and to play in the yard and we waited for mom to get home. Deborah raked the driveway, mind you the driveway is pavement but there were leaves on the driveway. Deborah tried to install a screen window into the window in my living room but the thing wouldn’t go in. She eventually gave up and I let Zeus go pee and poop outside again and then I said goodbye to mom and dad and we left. We came home and we decided to watch the movie Dear John. That was a good movie. It was a great love story. It had a lot of surprises in the movie yet it was still a good movie. I can’t wait to see the new Twilight movie. I think it comes out June 30th. I wonder if we will be able to go see it in theaters. Hum. I think we can get up the money for that lol. Now I’m just laying in bed with Deborah and she is playing on her laptop. She is playing on Facebook of course and I am sitting here typing this blog. I’m going to bed in a little bit though. I think we are going to get up and go walking in the morning. We are trying to get in shape and be healthier so we are going to start exercising. Well this is the end of the blog. I’m out for the night. Goodnight all and to all a good night.

Tipsy
I’m a little bit tipsy. I had a mixed drink and it had rum in it. I’m feeling really good. Hell yeah
Virginia Beach Photos
Virginia Beach Trip
Deborah and I sitting on the beach at night. We have had a good trip so far. We definitely needed a vacation for sure. We had been stuck in the house forever. We get cabin fever badly. It was nice to be able to get away from the house. The only thing I miss is the animals. I hope Mollee and the cats are doing alright. We took lots of photos and videos and there are more to come. I posted most of the photos on my Facebook profile under my photos.
We have had lots of fun. We have gone to the beach and we are in a nice hotel that has a kitchenette in it. We have had mixed drinks and I drank Budweiser and we’ve just had a really great time. We’ve gone shopping and I got a new hemp necklace and only paid 2 bucks for it. Nice. Deb got a new ring and Melissa got a new necklace. We got to see some hot rides too. Deborah and I went on the Ferris wheel which was nice. The seat we were in moved and I freaked out lol. It was fun. The beach is so nice at night. We didn’t see any crabs which is a good thing. We are in our hotel room and we are on the 6th floor. We can see the beach from our balcony. Its so nice. I’m about to drink a mixed drink, it has rum in it. Deb got sun burnt really badly. I got sunburn real bad on the back of my legs. We are having a good time. The fun will come to an end tomorrow but we have had a good time. I have enjoyed it. This was a good vacation.
