Updating Contacts

So ive been updating my contacts in outlook on my work computer to keep them updated on my iphone. Now, heres the situation i have.


Outlook @ work - exchange, has work contacts/calendar synced to phone through itunes(when i think to do it).
Mac at home - apple address book(where most of my personal contacts are added)
iPhone - merged data nightmare of doom


So today, i was merging the 2, and all the ones i input in outlook display like ass garbage on the iPhone. Took me 5 times going through and changing the format to figure out why. The issue was that it would display the name in outlook like this

Full Name: First Last
File As: Last, First

However, in my contacts on my iPhone, it was showing up as

Last First - but was sorting all names by FIRST name, thinking it was the last name.

Confused yet?

So, in order to fix it, you actually have to go into the name editor, not the name field where you import it...and change it manually. For whatever reason, outlook imported all the names i was adding manually...backwards.


*sigh*


Hate outlook.

Regrets

Already kinda regretting transferring off my server with my paladin.

27

Old.

Ive got toh mah toe on my sleeeev

Love this show.

LFG

Anyone need a t6 geared paladin(alliance)? Im on the market.

Yep

Sums up my feelings on most things in life right now.

Dad makes me Lol

From an email from him today:

From Obama's Memorial Day speech in New Mexico:

"On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes -- and I see many of them in the audience here today -- our sense of patriotism is particularly strong."

So either he doesn't know what a fallen hero is or he has the sixth sense. If you believe the latter, why in the world would the military dead be attending an Obama rally? That's like a wookie living on Endor.

Nice one, dad. Nice.

Why I Dont Post

Id say "People have been asking me why i haven't posted lately..." but the truth is that no one asks. I'm guessing this blog has fallen off the radar of most of my college/crowe chizek friends, and I cant say I blame anyone.

Why don't I post anymore? Honestly speaking, its because life is lame. While this post may come across as whiny or emo, this is literally what is going on.

MY DAILY ROUTINE:

6:45 Alarm goes off.
7:00 Get ass out of bed
7:40 Leave apartment to train station
7:57 Catch Train
8:30ish Get in office
8:50 Start checking IM to see if Tim is awake yet and online
9:14 Tim leaves his home for his work
9:15-10:00 Try to find work to occupy myself
10:00ish Tim gets to work and gets online
11:15 Start contemplating lunch options
11:30 Execute lunch option
2:30ish Tim takes lunch so i find myself talking to myself
4:00 Start contemplating train options
4:15 Realize id be a total slack ass for taking the 4:35 train
4:50 Pack up and leave
5:10 Train leaves for home
5:50 Get home - change - make some dinner
7:00 Log on to WoW to do a daily or 2
7:30 Raid invites go out
8:00 Raid starts
11:00 Raid Ends and i spend too much time updating our DKP site
11:30-12:00am Crash


Thats it. Nothing exciting. Some days, just to be saucy, ill get lunch at 1. Talk about spicing up my life.

Woah....long time no posty

A month between posts. Wow. SO much for trying to top out my post count from last year. However, with this, i guess its quanity over quality. Ive had this blog for years now, and it has gone through many iterations of usage. I originally used it as a "dear diary" of sorts, recapping what i did during the day in college. However, realizing that reading that was about as boring as watching dry paint get drier, i started doing less frequent posts about more important aspects of my life. Who am i? What do i do? What is important to me? What do i think about. Lately...i just havent felt like writing about this. Ive slipped back into a more introspective/introverted funk. What is the root cause? I honestly dont know.

Sure, i was back in the hospital again. Easter sunday, i felt another kidney stone passing. Not fun. It hurt, dont get me wrong, but i knew it was coming, since the doctor told me i had a 90% chance of getting another stone in 6-8 months after i had my first one. Spent a few days in pain and finally thought it passed. The thursday evening after easter, i started feeling really sick. Finally after sleeping all day friday, saturday morning i was feeling horrible, fluish. Called my dad, took me to the emergency room...and low and behold, it was another kidney infection/UTI. Fevers spiking almost to 104 and crap. I was in the hospital from saturday through tuesday. Not fun. I guess i havent really felt about writing about it cause its just BS. Not looking for pity or sympatny, it just sucked.

Things at work havent been real pretty either. Just went through a round of layoffs and i lost some good friends, including by best friend here at work. Joe is a good dude, and im sure hell find a new gig, but good lord did he get screwed. Seems all the good guys get screwed or leave, starting to wear on me. Im not big on bitching about work on her, mainly cause i dont know who does and doesnt read this, but its just a depressing time.

Yeah, still play too much WoW. Its my social outlet. Got good friends who play, especially some friends from college who play too. Its good to keep in touch with them. Do i sacrifice RL opportunities to do stuff in WoW? Probably. Do i care? No. Friends are friends. Putting labels on them as "not real life friends" just because we dont go to a bar in person doesnt mean shit. Im getting a bit tired of that. Maury, a friend of mine from college. I havent seen him since we were both in school, but we both play WoW together. I dont see him...does that make him less of a friend? Man. Sorry, had to rant about that.

Been dating on and off...and i dont know what to do. Either im looking for something that doesnt exist(someone who matches all my expectations), im having terrible luck or im just not date-able anymore. I know that sounds real emo and depressing, but if thats the case, im ok with it. Lately, ive dated women who have been great, but other than ONE GLARING THING that just drives me berserk, they would be great. NOw, i know im no great catch, but still. I cant seem to get over these things that just drive me nuts. I cant help but think that i might just have become jaded and bitter after the string of bad relationships ive had...i sure hope its just a phase, cause it seems like every time i date, something dumb as hell gets in the way. Oh well, i guess ill just keep looking.

Dont feel like rambling on anymore. Will try to post more soon.

My Paladin. Then and now.

Then. Lvl 60, last june.



Now. Lvl 70 Raid Geared.



Ive been kind of busy.

(Yes, thats 5/5 Tier 5 and Hyjal Mace/shield.)

Idiocy.

Found this quote on my google start page today. It is terribly appropriate due to some idiocy im dealing with at work right now.

Leotheras The Blind - Deaths Embrace

My first stab at a WoW Kill Movie. This is done from my perspective on one of our cleaner kills of Leotheras The Blind.

Music is "I Love You" - by BT...seeing as how it was our first kill with our Warlock tank surviving, and he professed his undying love to us :)
