stuffed and ready to blog

ugh so mad at myself I actually got dinner at the carryout tonight.. like the ghetto joint in my apt complex..yuck I had been doing so well lately anyway

catching up on my e-news I see yahoo hired a women CEO always gotta shout out my IT- Divas. I don't know much about this lady but I laugh wondering how OG tech companies yahoo, aol, palm got left in the dust. Palm makes the most angry because it was around way before the internet. I remember my mom got me a Palm I wanna say middle school or high school so 1995 or so... OK I just checked wikipedia because I didn't want to be lying to yall; apparently the first Palm Pilots came out in 1996
Okay I take my other comments back I was on-line pretty early IMO I got my first PC 1995 I had the internet in 1996 gooood ol 28.8 lmao.. let me reminisce real quick my mom would get mad at me because I learned how to download music at an early era via IRC and I used to tie up the phone line letting the music download over night LOL! That was my senior year hustle because I was the only black person with a PC around my way let alone knowing how to get music and burn cds plus I had huge CD collection to fill in the gaps if I couldn't find the mp3s.. I used to sell mix cds at my job hahah enuff of memory lane.

Hopefully this yahoo lady helps them out because they mis-managed they vision and Palm reportedly has a vicious new OS coming out but they lost huge ground to Windows mobile and now Iphone OS, Andriod.. they really gotta step they game up to regain customers.

I got an email from Bank of America that mobile banking is now available.. I'm jive on the fence with this. The lazy side of me sees myself utilizing the site instead of calling the 800 for those account checks but the IA side of me is like woah is this secure? One I have huge trust in BOA they have a great financial security program, bammas will call you ASAP for weird security activity and take the mischarges off with the quickness, but the internet and mobile web threats have so many unknowns. I will research this some more before I think about using this service.

Before I get off my information security podium lol, my cuzzo PC what a mess that was. People please keep you antivirus software up to date and don't let other people wreck your PCs. I scanned her machine at least 6 different times she had about 7 different trojans mutlipled out to equal about 350 instances of infection. I traced all the viruses back to the guest account her girl uses man I was like don't let her use your PC anymore. Family always get you..best buy would hit her with a nice bill me I got 50$ check lol.


On to some fun stuff.. my job siced me I'm 'teleworking' MLK and Inauguration yes!
I was already gonna find some excuse for not coming in but shoo I won't be home chilling I have mad things for me to work on over the long weekend. I'm also siced my bff and I found an event to hit for Inauguration.


The Washington Presidential Inauguration Fashion Show DC Fashion Week will present the Washington Presidential Inauguration Fashion Show on January 18, 2009. This historic event takes place during Martin Luther King Holiday weekend and precedes the official Inauguration of President-Elect Barack Obama.

The Crystal City Doubletree Hotel just minutes away from the Ronald Reagan National Airport, is located across the Potomac from our nation's capital in beautiful Arlington, Virginia. DC Fashion Week, the nation's capital's largest professional trade show will celebrate the tenth fashion week in Washington February 15 – 22, 2009.

The Washington Presidential Inauguration Fashion show will give Washingtonians a sneak preview of some of the great designing talent that has graced the catwalks of fashion week. Like fashion week, the exhibiting designers are from reputable fashion houses around the globe among whom are -

-Andrew Nowell
-Anthony Eastwick
-Corjor International
-EBANNISTER
-Studio D-MAXSI
-Tsyndma
-Philly Gurl
-Yosoy Fashions

Special Guest Collections to be displayed are Gucci, Prada, Versace & Chanel.

I'm siced but not gonna get too siced like this is not NYC.. I already know the DC fashion scene is a lil light but I'm sure this will beat the only other fashion show i attended a joint out Capitol Heights- no need for me to explain any further lol. DC Fashion Week is 15-22 Feb. Just like every effin thing in DC tix for events are like starting at $100.. so I doubt I'll be attending anything plus there's a great chance I could be out of the country (more on that later).. anyway time for me to chill before bedtime gotta be in the office at 7 tomorrow grr

welcome 2009

I don't really have much to say but wanted to check in..
sitting here listening to trance mix... working on my side hustle aka fixin broken pcs. It amazes how people are still negligent when it comes to going on-line. My cuzzo PC is over here she talking about she clicked some banner ads that said her pc needed to be scanned now she got porno icons all over the desktop. All I can say is more job security and $$ for moi because like I tell my InfoSec peeps web and data protection is top priority as we move forward and our lives become more and more intergrated with the net.

I'm geek'n off how the city is gonna be shutdown come inauguration. I already told my boss don't look for me that day especially since they shutting down 395 how the hell am I supposed to get to VA. I will be home and only walking around my hood that day. My girl emailed me with a list of possible events to hit.. this is when US gonna realize (as if you didn't know already) DC is expensive and she off her rocker if she thinks I'm paying to get into anything.. I doubt there are too many free events poppin off next week. I got a college friend from NY coming down via ABC maybe that connect can get me into some action.. otherwise I"m not pressed. All I need to see is Obama get sworn in on TV.. copped some of the commerative Obama Smart trips for putting on eBay in 10 years lol

This weekend I'll be staying at the downtown Marriot going to L3 holiday gala (they late as hell with the party lol) probably slide down the infamous Park at 14th afterwards.. so I'll write on my expeirances and I already know Thursdays is "black night" but I can get down with any crowd as long as the music is cool. I have no outfit for these events and in dire need for knee boots.. I'm trying to chill hard on the shopping in 09 for reasons Ill get into later so we'll see hopefully Pentagon City can help me out tomorrow otherwise i'm short

Anyway let me go back to working!
