New Cheeze Home

2006-09-30T07:46:00.000-04:00

I'll still be posting here every now and again, but heres my new home for everything...

Thanks, and enjoy the new site!! =)

Ok, well good news!! I hung out with moose and his new puppy (pics to come soon) and bought some air fresheners, so now my apartment smells like Glade's Hawaiin Breeze, rather than the "dead mouse" plug-in i had before... which was a little more musty. Heres to no longer being ashamed of my dwelling!!

There seems to be a great corelation between the amount of people who kill one another and the success of a nation.

The Gilligan Effect

2006-09-06T20:35:00.000-04:00

Gilligan is not a Mouse. Gilligan is more of an idea, a revolution... you see, apparently Gilligan is all mice, all mice everywhere and everything they do, and everything they represent. Mice will rise up!! Of course, I really mean that all mice everywhere seem to be attracted to my apartment and are capable of rising up on the top of my kitchen cabinets and eating through my rat poison boxes, and they seem also to be able to consume large quantities of poison, crawl in my walls, and make my apartment smell like, you guessed, dead mice. All the poison is gone, but crumbs don't mysteriously turn into mouse poo overnight anymore, so thats good.

Busy!

2006-09-02T13:43:00.000-04:00

Been working Target overnights (go with the flow!) at the greatland in shortpump. Life is busy.... going hunting in a few, hope that goes well, and will be in Farmville this weekend, ditto for that one. Things otherwise are good! thinking about getting a second full time job to pass the time and rake in some douht but dunt know if dats gonna work... anyway, theres that!

Ok,

I set three traps thisafternoon. I made certain to place the wheat Thins in the whole on the edge of the trap. Gillian ate all three pieces of wheat thin. This is nuts... now I'm just starting to want to get the little bugger!

I think i may smush a piece of cheeze into the little hole at the top of the trigger or something..

Anyone reading ever tried to get a mouse like this?

Mouse Log, Vol. 3

2006-08-09T14:11:00.000-04:00

ok, so i set the trap last night at 3 am, and Gilligan ate the piece of wheat thin i put on the trap right off the trigger without setting the trap. I'm gonna have to improvise a little more tonight.

Dang

2006-08-08T14:30:00.000-04:00

Well, I've been doing some research, and it turns out theres a reason people dont usually keep house mice as pets (duh). Sadly, they're rather unsanitary it seems, and so, after a few days of ketching and releasing, I've decided that my health and a desire not to completely diguest and disuade visitors both call for me to dispose of whom we have named "Gilligan". Well, anyway, this is kind of sad for me cause its been fun. Its kind of like learning that some close friend of yours is an evil mastermind, or maybe like when those people in zombie movies have to put their firends out of their mysery so they dont ketch the virus...

I HAVE DER MOUSE!

2006-08-05T08:34:00.000-04:00

So...

There was a pesky little rodent running around my kitchin eating my dry goods!! He ruined a few bags of muffin mix and instant rice. I had to move all my food into cabinets and move stuff in cabs tio my shelves.. big pain. So, yesterday I thought, enough's enough, and I took and old toolbox, put a bunch of wheat thins and bread in it, and stuck a pencil around the food to hold the lid up.

So the lil rodent didnt trip the pencil the first time, and i saw him in the kitchin... he'd eatin a bunch of the bread and there was a wheat thin on the floor! So, i broke the pencil in half, set it up to support the lid, and put its base on another wheat thin.

This morning, I have a pet! =) hehehe...

Man its boring here.

Wow... long time, eh? Update!

2006-07-30T16:15:00.000-04:00

OK, so heres whas goin on yo!

I moved to rishmond in the Fan and I'm hanging out right now with some old firends from day to day, and we're just having a jolly old time. I got a job at target and will be startin soon, and if i make a manager in the next few weeks (wich is most likely) i'll be makin more than i did at wachovia! this is good... But its the nioght shift... which aint too bad.

I'm thinkin now that im settled that if i dont try and make it in the coast guard that I'll be regetting it for the rest of my life, so thus begins my quest. Over the next year, im going to make a oncerted, planned effort to a) support myself and my girl monitarily with one or more jobs, b) train to get myself into mental/physical shape for the USCG c) notrule out teaching, and maybe work to get my certification before going into the coast guard or at least continue with some schooling d) have a good damn time, and continue reenacting and drumming!

This may seem like too much for some of you, and i challange all of you that have doubts to be my witnesses. All else, wish me luck! i'm going to do something with my life!

=)

Oh, and hope everyones getting by ok!!

Gainfully Unemployed

2006-06-06T17:09:00.000-04:00

Decided I hate call centers the other day...
I've been thinking about it since I took calls for the first time, but the other day I came to the stunning realization that I was either about to start a new career somewhere else by quitting while i had wasted only 6 weeks of my life before I wasted five years OR work a job I hated untill i drove myself so miserable that I could barely drive to work everyday...

So guess what I did?

Yeah, so I didnt have another job lined up but I'd rather deal with that than take calls!!

Anyway, wish me luck! I'm alot happier now, and know I'll do better somewhere else...

GRADUATION WEEK!!!

2006-05-21T12:00:00.000-04:00

Commuter Log 1

2006-05-09T02:25:00.000-04:00

Holy cow. Ok, so I been driving from Farmville to Short Pump every day for over a week now, on top of classes, moving and finishing up exams and finals work. Its kickin my butt, but I really think its worth it. I've been getting into Wachovia coorperate policy and taking my little Special High Intensive Training course very seriously. I think everyone in there hates me because I wear a tie every day though.

Hopefully I'll run the gauntlett for a few months here, and get to move into Richmond so I don't have to live with my rents and commute. Espicially stinks B/C of gas prices. Doesn't help that I have to be so far away from my girlie either.

Hope everybody else out there is finding jobs and getting into grad school!! Good luck to ya all you high school and misc. peeps that read this and never hear from me otherwise!! If any of you read this thing... hello?

Hehehehehehe.

THE CHOVE!!

2006-05-02T08:21:00.000-04:00

First day at wachovia today...

UBER LONG CLASS!! Very slow. Hope the whole thing doesnt go like this, but they're payin me full which kicks ass!! =D hehehe...

Oh well!!

I'm gonna be the best phone service guy EVER!!

MAY 1st!!

2006-05-01T10:11:00.000-04:00

SO! I graduate may 14th!! Yahoo!! Who would've guessed! Gonna go work for Wachovia (the chove)
in Richmond for a while, and see what happens after that!! wish me luck!!

I sold my truck to one of my cousin's friends, a pretty cool guy, the other day. Now I'm driving dad's pathfinder! (kicks ass...) So thats somthing to be excited about!

My gal and I are doing really well, she's in exam week, and i start work today so we're bot so darn busy our minds are about to pop, but no biggie, eh? hehe. Alls not too bad, and we're still managin to have some fun in between.

We initiated our little pledges into Theta Chi last month, and the new guys are doing quite well as we expected them too. Hopefully they will have a great year next year, eh? haha. Before we let e'm in we all went shooting guns at one of their houses, got some interesting pics from that...

Fun stuff... what exactly am I reenacting there? EH?

No worries- we were all sober.

Kristin and I went to a bunch of balls, had good times... other than that, just sliding through waitin to graduate and get the heck out of here!!! Wish me luck on exams!!

Random updates on my life?

2006-02-28T10:34:00.000-05:00

Ok, so I finished my drumming website drum.funk.nu so check that out yo! I think i'm finally gonna go to a reenactment since i havnt been to one since September, which will be cool. The theta chi formal is on saturday, which rocks too... so this is probably gonna be one heck of a busy weekend.

Looking forward to closing out this semester, only a few months till graduation and i still have no clue what the heck i'm gonna do job wise, when i get out of here... been looking though, so thats good, right? Anyone hiring?

Thats all for now, exciting post, isn't it?

V-Day WEEKEND!!!

2006-02-12T19:13:00.000-05:00

HEY HEY HEY!! What a weekend!! Spent it with my Gal in richmond and went to La Grotta which was quite an interesting dining experience, after having gone to the Zoo that afternoon. It was a rainy 37 degress and more than half the animals were gone, but Kristin really enjoyed herself, so I was really happy... We did se a monkey, some limers, some galapagos tortoises, and some yaks and zebras and stuff, and most exciting of course was the American White Tailed Deer!!

Those little buggers were FAT. I mean they were running right up to us to get food and stickin their little noses in our faces.

I was wondering what they'd taste like... they looked like they'd make cool pets too. Oh, and there were peacocks running around all over the place, and they'd let you touch 'em before they ran away. It was neato mon!!
OOO- there were monkeys too...

There were these little... i suppose the best way to describe them would be rabbit/deer/mouse/dog/rodents called muntjacs that were monogmous, and therefore romantic too... hehe.

OH YEAH- ALSO THE SLOTH... I can relate. Cheers to you, little guy-

Well, hope you had fun reliving my weekend!! Happy Valentine's day to all!! Unfortunately I've been instructed by the company not to ask others to be MY valentine due to company policy and public relations... it just looks bad man!! ;)

My bebe makes me happy.

NED

2006-02-08T10:20:00.000-05:00

My roomate Ned. I have little experience writing dialogue, so here's an attempt at it- This scenario is what would happen if I tried to use managing Ned as a qualification on a resume.

"...So Mr. Willis, everything here looks pretty well rounded, we just have one more question here."
"Yes sir, whats that?"

"You have here 'managed Ned for two semesters... what exactly is a Ned?"

"Caveman, sir... hey Ned, you can come in now!"

"Bah."

"Oooo.. interesting."

"Yessir, very interesting indeed. You see, i made sure Ned woke up and went to class every morning for two semesters, as well as makeing him preform othere basic tasks, such as reading and showering."

"Interesting.. very interesting Mr. Willis. I don't exactly understand how this enables you to preform you job better though, it doesn't seem too-"

"WAIT! Here, just watch. Ned- Sleeeeep... sleep Ned..."

"BAH!! Baaaaaaah... bah... BAH!!... ughh...... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...."

"Ok, now sir, I challange you to wake Ned."

After two hours of screaming, throttling Ned with blunt objects, pouring various liquids on him and pulling his hair, the interviewer gives up.

"Ok.. ok Mr. Willis, I conceed."

"Just watch... ok... UG!! UG get up!! GET THE HELL UP DAMNIT... ITS 8:45!! YOU'VE GOT AN 8:30-"

"BAH!!! Baaaaah... ugh. AHHH!! Bah!! Oy.. ok I'm up, I'm.... zzzzzzzz...."

"NED!! *WHAM GET UP! YOU HAVE TO GO TO CLASS TO GRADUATE"

"OH OK!! I'm up.. I'm up..."

"Theres coffee in the lobby bro... help yourself... have a good one Ug."

"Later man."

"Mr. Willis, that was very impressive... you say you made him take his OWN showers?"

"Yes sir, thats right... every day."

"You're exactly the kind of material we're looking for, congradulations, you've got the job!"

HAPPY GROUNDHOGS DAY!!

2006-02-02T12:16:00.000-05:00

Feeling MUCHAS better today...

Yikes

2006-02-01T21:03:00.000-05:00

A new day

lacking a dollar

Man I cant wait to get out of school.

Christmas Break, & Return to Normality!!

2006-01-24T21:37:00.000-05:00

I feel like myself again!! I know I know, I need to call a few of you, shoot out some e-mails, mail some cards... it weighs heavily upon me... I'll get to it soon enough. I've not been myself...

You see, I've been wrapped up in this absolutely wonderful female by the name (as mentioned below, for all you regulars) of Kristin McCrae... as time goes on I've learned so much about myself and life through her, and I'm thankfull for every minute of it.

All is well in the fraternity, we're getting along well, and we seem to be primed up for this semester, with hopefully somwhere around 16 pledges, and we've only got 11 Brothers, so its definitly gonna be GOOD TIMES!!

I have about 300 gigs of storage space now, but still lost all the old information I had on my last external drive that died... anyway, point here is that I've got tons o room for site stuff and media, sound and pics, so my website might be massively improved here in a while, if i ever get around to it, which isnt too likely.

I didnt realize it at the time, but I was so stressed out last semester it was as though I was in a dream. There are parts I cant even remember cause i was so freggin outta space... so sorry I lost contact with so many...

Oh, i have mass numbers of MP3's now, so hit me up if you're interested... my bro and i are kinda slowely workin on expanding my music vocab, so hopefully i can continue with that interest outside of school, maybe get a band or work in a music something or the other... i still have no idea what i wanna do... getting me resume sorted out befor Feb though....

Thats where i stand noe sports fans!! Much less stress this semester, but lots to do!! Hope you all are as well as I right now!! Take care, God Bless, relax, have some fun!!
-HRW
Spread the LOVE!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

2005-12-25T11:42:00.000-05:00

Happy holidays to all!! I'll be spending the next few days in VA beach and Roanoke, but hope to spend most of January ketching up with everyone!!! Hope you all have happy holidays and got many many preasents!!

PICTURES!!

2005-11-15T12:08:00.000-05:00

Ok, so a couple o' weeks ago we had our last home game here (which we won fiarly hardcore, kicked some serious arse), but Kristin came down and hung out with my parents. Oh yeah, this was a few days before my 22nd B'day too, so it was good fun. Anywho, the rents brought the cam and took bunches of pics of us, so I thought i'd post up just how fun HSC can be without alcheyhal.

Me, my wonderful cousins and my brother... unfortunately it was a tragic event that brought us together, but I always love seein 'em and hearing about how much more motivated they are than me or my brothers... lol. GO COUSINS!! =D You guys rock.

This here's me and my parents at the game havin a good time. It's a very relaxing experience in a casual environment, and the games are always real perdy.

Shalgrove lake here @ HSC; the fall is a great time of year to take pics, no?

This here's Trey Epps, a local muscian who's specialty is taking anything under the sun and making it sound like Jimmy Buffet... he REALLY freggin good at it to. Always make you wanna grab a lime and a Corona and sit on the beach (even if you dont plan on drinking the Corona). So yeah, Trey broke his leg in a Motorcycle accident so i was helpin him move his stuff for a couple of weeks, and hung out with him at his place and jammed w/'em. It was good times man. He's quite possibly the most chillax man alive.

And finally, the piece de resistance, me and my gal. She's made the past two months fly by like nothin else and I'm greatful to have her. This has been the best semesta eva yo!

RDRR

2005-10-25T17:07:00.000-04:00

One month for Kristin and I, but it seems to be flying by oh so fast. Haha. I have for all of you thing number 1223977662534716 to do when you are bored...

I got her s flower, and this little bean thing you get at wallyworld that grows with a message on it... We're all debating whether its a genetic thing or they stick a sticker on the little bean inside the can it comes in... I hope it has a descent message on it. LoL. I bet the research to develop that little trick cost millions of dollars.

I'm freggin tired.. trunching through exams this week, alls well so far. Wish me luck for the rest!

HOMECOMING WEEK!

2005-10-19T11:35:00.000-04:00

HOMECOMING rocked hardcore this year! I had an AWSOME week and an even better weekend save for the passing of Russ Britt, which sobered the entire weeks events. We still had a kick ass time, which he definitly would have wanted.

Newt and his dad cooked some shweeeet chicken for the game, and we catered the house thanks to Bill Brown, one of our alum. We also had a pretty freggin hawt band during the evening (top) which was tons of fun. Me, I went freggin nuts and ran around the whole time having a blast. I also met some really cool alums who hadn't been back in a long time, including one who had been a officer in the Coast Guard for some time, which gave me renwed spirit for that affair. If i can get my wait down between now and eternity, I still think i'm gonna leave that open as an option.

We had almost all of our more recent alum come back as well which was really freggin cool, we all hung out and with none of the politics we had to deal with when they were undergrads, things were awsome. Some of them even hung out and got me plastered on Sunday which was muchas amusante.

My one dissapointment was that Kristin was not there to meet any of my old friends, which really sucked. She would've had a freggin blast. She cam last night, it was fun. I look forward to more fun with that particularly outstanding individual...

Anyway, so thats homecoming!! Not much going between here and holloween, but I'm certain holloween costumes will make that even more entertaining....... Midterms next week too... all of 'em, which sucks. =P

Don't you go changin!!
