Something I have always wanted to do is get on the Amazing Race. It totally fits into the digital nomad lifestyle and I think I would be pretty good at it. Plus I like to solve random riddles whenever I get a chance. Unfortunately, I haven’t landed a spot on the show just yet (come on CBS!).
Luckily there is another option. My girlfriend and I signed up to compete in…
The Cardinals Are Super Bowl Bound!
For those of you who missed it, the Arizona Cardinals beat the Eagles yesterday to go to the Super Bowl. The game was awesome and I was on the edge of my seat the entire second half. Who would of thought? The Cardinals in the Super Bowl…
It’s been a long year of watching football, especially since the Cardinals ended the regular season looking pretty ugly. Luckily they turned it around when the playoffs started and have been looking good since.
Head To Tampa?
Following the game, I had the bright idea of taking a road trip to Tampa to check it out. It’s a 36 hour drive which is a little intense. A few guys next to me were aso thinking about doing it since it would be cheaper than flying.
But after looking on Craigslist and other sites, it looks like Super Bowl tickets are already going for $2,000 a piece. A little high for me…
Merry Christmas Everyone
It’s actually Christmas Eve, but I thought I would go ahead and send a Merry Christmas out to everyone. I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend and spends some time with their family and friends. It’s crazy how fast this month (and year) went by.
It seems like not that long ago I was writing about last Christmas and heading home to visit my family. Look how bad (and short) those posts are! My blogging sure came along way since last Christmas.
So Merry Christmas Everyone! Have…
7 Days Left Of The Mustache
Hey everyone, I just wanted to do another update on my mustache growth. If you have no idea of what I am talking about, check out my post about growing a mustache for charity.
Here’s A Picture
I thought I would share a picture of what I currently look like so that everyone can feel the pain I have been going through to help raise some money. It’s not easy having a mustache…
My Mustache After 3 Weeks
As you can see, I look pretty creepy. I even started drinking Schlitz beer since it feels so right…
Mustaches For Kids in Phoenix
Today I have some big news. I mentioned last Thursday that I started growing a mustache and now is the time to explain it. That’s right, from last Thursday until December 18th, I will by growing what will no doubt be a creepy looking mustache. It’s only been five days and it already looks creepy…
Why The Mustache?
The holiday season is here and there is no better way to start it off than by giving to those in need. Therefore, I decided to join Mustaches for Kids to help support schools around the Phoenix area. Schools are in need of money to provide students with the education experiences they deserve. By giving a donation, you help us fund one of the projects that we have selected to raise money for.
In order to justify this endeavor I need your support. I am asking for you to sponsor my mustache by making a contribution to DonorsChoose.org for $1 per day of my mustache growth (or a one time donation of your choosing). This donation will go directly to local low-income classroom projects here in Phoenix.
Life After the Cubicle
Hey everyone, you have officially found the first ever edition of Life After the Cubicle. Okay fine, it’s more like the pilot edition since it has not yet officially launched. Anyways, this will be an ongoing series that I hope to keep around indefinitely. The series can be found under the Life category on my navigation bar.
Introduction to the Series
Life After the Cubicle is going to be my story about what I am doing now that I have quit my office job to try new things. I am going to focus on writing about my gigs, short-term jobs, and any freelance opportunities I encounter along the way. If I sell some crap on Craigslist to pay my cellphone bill, here is where you can read about it.
I will also document my journey to make a full-time living online through this blog along with a few other sites. I hope to share some more tips on blogging and share my stats as far as traffic and what I have set for goals. It is more like a journal documenting my journey to become an entrepreneur .
I think it will be really interesting to document it and it will help me stay motivated to succeed at it. Who knows, I might even influence a few others to ditch the cubicles and move on to a more satisfying life. We will see…
Kenny Chesney’s Poets and Pirates Tour
This weekend, I had the opportunity to go check out Kenny Chesney’s Poets and Pirates Tour at the University of Phoenix stadium. It was a huge show and it was awesome to see.
There were four separate performers at the show, some I loved, other’s I didn’t. Here is a breakdown of the performances:
Gary Allan
Gary put on a good opening act and played a lot of his good songs. The first song he played was his new single, “Watching Airplanes.” He also played some of his older hits…
The Lowdown on Leap Day
Happy Leap day everyone. Today is February 29th, the day we only get every four years. So what am I doing with my extra day? Working 
I have never really looked into Leap Day so I thought I would do a little research (aka googling) to see what I could dig up about this day. To my surprise I found some interesting facts about Leap Day.
So what exactly is Leap Day?
Wikipedia had a great statement that detailed Leap Day as the following:…
The Weekenders Golf Tour
Yesterday was officially my first time on set of a reality TV show. I must say, it is a great experience and definitely something I would like to do a lot more of in the future. I really am on the lookout for the next show I can get on.
The show I was on, is called The Weekenders Golf Tour and it is a show about average Joe golfers competing on television. You can read more about The Weekenders Golf Tour by following this link: The Weekenders…
Happy Valentine’s Day
Well today is Valentines day, and for anyone thats been living under a rock, here is the summary found on WikiPedia:
