No, that was my fault. I was there at the office and parked in the car although I got there late. I was going to come in. But I have been going through some personal issues that have been affecting my work and school and I couldn't get it together enough to come inside and talk about business. I left after sitting there debating whether to force myself or not and UI finally still couldn't get it together enough to come inside. Sorry, I really wanted to see everyone. I miss you guys! I heard it was good though.

I want to sleep away for about two years! That would be nice. I wake up and find everything has changed and I getto start all over again. That would be great for me!
lkcho78 wrote on 11/18/2009 11:10:56 AM

I have been hiding from mycity.com, hiding from everything in general lately. If I sleep now, can I wake up again in about two years? Lol . . .
lkcho78 wrote on 11/18/2009 11:10:20 AM

Lol, I always come during lunch. It is just always the way it works out. Odd huh? Going to be there tonight?
lkcho78 wrote on 11/16/2009 9:30:03 AM

Hope you had a nice weekend!
lkcho78 wrote on 11/13/2009 5:14:08 PM

Okay . . . so . . . I came by today. I always come right around lunch and miss so many people. So . . . I missed you because you just stepped out to lunch when I got there. My mistake for not calling you ahead and letting you know what time I am getting there. Sorry. I will be at the mixer next week so we can take some time to talk then. Is that cool? Any plans for the weekend? have an awesome weekend!!!!!!!!!!

Haha, that's big time! I don't really drink coffee so I don't appreciate the flavored-ness like I should.
Charlotte Derby wrote on 11/13/2009 11:33:40 AM

How's the flavored coffee?

I am not sure if I believe in this particular superstition of Friday the 13th. I have had some good ones and some bad ones in the past. We shall see this year what happens.

Free food free wine free ride = automatic yes! Let me know later!
Charlotte Derby wrote on 11/11/2009 1:05:39 PM

Dave! I'm giving Amy a ride tonight to the event and then back to the office. You can come with if you like! I won't be staying late this time.
lkcho78 wrote on 11/11/2009 11:00:31 AM

Have an awesome day. Did you know this Friday is the 13th? Do you believe in that?
lkcho78 wrote on 11/11/2009 10:57:36 AM

Working? You guys are not off today? Wow, Bob is a slave driver there. I am good. Slow today, I needed it though. Getting off early and going to see best friend and have dinner, maybe happy hour since I never get to go because I work so dang much. Lol . . .
lkcho78 wrote on 11/11/2009 10:53:15 AM

I forgot to remember that today is a holiday. Therefore, I am working. All days blur together now. At least I get out early. That counts right? How is your day? Off today?
mingjing7 wrote on 11/10/2009 2:54:26 PM

thanks dave, i got it. I tried to go on last night, but safari said it couldn't get into the mycity server. i wanted to post the belly dance event on here. can you make it? i sent you a flyer last night
Charlotte Derby wrote on 11/10/2009 12:09:45 PM

Did you already leave?
lkcho78 wrote on 11/9/2009 9:11:14 AM

Just checked my inbox. I will be making contact this afternoon. I had a good weekend, went to Islands in MDR on Saturday after work for a friend's bdaty dinner. And on Sunday I did not get to sleep in but I had breakfast at 3pm with a friend. What would you call that? Breanner? Or what? Lol . . . did you have a good weekend?
lkcho78 wrote on 11/6/2009 12:09:18 PM

Happy Friday! Finally the weekend! Woo hoo! Lol . . . I am so tired I am delirious now. Hope you are having an awesome Friday. I am too, despite being so busy. Life is sweet! What are you doing for the weekend?
lkcho78 wrote on 11/5/2009 4:23:38 PM

Actually, I have been eating more whenI am busy. Need more energy! Noticed your review on Islands. Going to Islands on Sat forr a friend's bday dinner. Old standby for me, but it's pretty decent.
lkcho78 wrote on 11/4/2009 12:30:02 PM

Thanks Dave! I am a bit out of orientation today, just have so much to do and not enough time to do it all. Kind of everywhere today unfortunately. I need to start writing things down in one place. It's a good thing that I am this busy, mostly for business. Some for school also. Hope you are having an awesome day! If you sit down to have lunch, think of me and eat for me also, lol, I might be way too busy to eat. Crazy huh?
Caribbean wrote on 11/4/2009 12:57:34 AM

lkcho78 wrote on 11/3/2009 6:24:19 PM

Hmmm . . . did you call me today? I was so busy today. Read Charlotte's board and you shall see how busy I was today. I am not in the office Tuesdays and Thursdays until after 4pm because of school. And tomorrow, I have a meeting in the morning. What a busy day for me, busy week. I got the lead and will follow up tomorrow.

Thank you for the help. I really need it right now. If there is anything more that I can do to help you help me, let me know. I can do anything. Literally. Lol . . . when it comes to business there isn't anything that I can't do.
lkcho78 wrote on 10/21/2009 9:24:36 AM

The only stressful part is that I need more business and I need help getting more business. Other than that, I am having great days lately which I am grateful for. Happy Wednesday!! Have a good evening last night?
lkcho78 wrote on 10/20/2009 3:50:33 PM

No sarcasm today. Being totally and absolutely real today. Honestly, happy Tuesday. I am seeing what happens if I start to enjoy each day aned not always look forward to only Fridays and the weekends. So far it is working and enjoying each day for itself is really nice so far. Kind of stressed because I need more business and I need it now. help!!
Charlotte Derby wrote on 10/20/2009 3:05:11 PM

Charlotte Derby wrote on 10/20/2009 9:25:12 AM

I'm holding you to that! By the next event do you mean Studio City on Thursday? Or Culver on the 29th? I'm pretty sure you meant both.
Charlotte Derby wrote on 10/19/2009 2:50:27 PM

how come you haven't come to anymore events? did you ever get to try a black jack taco??
lkcho78 wrote on 10/16/2009 10:38:36 AM

Thank goodness, I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to sit down and chat and I didn't want to seem all weird. Thank goodness it was you, lol . . .
lkcho78 wrote on 10/15/2009 4:11:28 PM

I am pretty sure that was you that I said hello to, right? I wasn't sure and I was in a hurry. Did I say hello to the right person? Was that you? or did I say hello to the wrong person and that person probably thinks I am out of my mind saying hello to a random person, lol . . .
lkcho78 wrote on 10/12/2009 8:46:57 PM

i will be by tomorrow (tuesday) to drop off the flyers, no wonder i am still at work printing right now, lol, not sure when tomorrow, trying to shoot for early morning but might have to be after school, not sure yet
lkcho78 wrote on 10/12/2009 1:49:46 PM

Thanks! As soon as the survey is done, I will send it to you. I did get mail and thank you!!
Charlotte Derby wrote on 10/12/2009 12:59:12 PM

Haha, I love Taco Bell too! And YES, I want to try the black jacks too.
lkcho78 wrote on 10/12/2009 10:13:25 AM

lkcho78 wrote on 10/9/2009 4:09:07 PM

So funny, okay. I wasn't sure who I was calling when I heard someone else's voice. That is why I did not leave a message and figured this was a good place to get a hold of you. Yeah! Have an awesome weekend! Thanks for the change in the flyer and I will print new ones out and get it to Bob soon!

lkcho78 wrote on 10/6/2009 1:34:57 PM

I came by today and I was going to say hello, I think I even passed your desk. I had a heavy CPU that Austin was looking at for me and knew if I stopped to say hello, I would drop the CPU. Too bad I am so small that things are so heavy for me, lol . . . I wanted to get your input on adding some more prices on our ad that goes out in the mixers. Let me know what you think. Sorry I didn't get a chance to say hello. Plus I was late to school. Talk to you soon!!

Lol, you are closer to my work then my home then. Wow, really close to my work. happy friday it was, having a bad day now, but a day can always start again. So I am going to make myself have a good day and smile again. Smiling always gets a bad day going again and makes a better day even better, does that make any sense at all? Lol . . . just trying to get through the day!
