Boy was I right about getting laid off, must have been my thoughts calling out to the universe because three days after my last post I was laid off…and was sooooooo happy about it. I got a decent severage package and went to Central America for 4 months. Not exactly working, but definitely doing what I love: TRAVEL!
At the end of it I found a job at a B&B in upstate New York actually doing work I love, which turned out to be quite domestic, but still made me happy everyday I worked there. However, I knew it wasn’t for long-term and returned to Dallas in July. So far I’ve been working on the startings of my own business for about two months now and things are finally showing some possibility.
It’s been 9 months since that last post and I have to say I’m very happy with the way things have turned out. If I hadn’t been laid off I wouldn’t have had these amazing experiences and life lessons, and I wouldn’t be facing my fears and trying to achieve my dream of owning my own business. Blessing in disguise.

In the next month, but it’s possible I’ll be laid off. With this in mind, I haven’t been the best employee and I’m very dissappointed with myself. This is just the end of my rope though. I’ve never really been happy with a job, just did it to make money but never tried to do something I enjoyed.
Right now I need to stop thinking so much, thank my lucky stars I found such a great job, stop complaining, stop goofing off and change my attitude. If I like what I do now, how happy will I be when I really find my passion??

and I have a few requirements:
Must be small and light to carry around
Must have DVD writer
Would like a built in webcam/microphone
Don’t want Vista (heard too much bad stuff)
At least 2.0 Ghz
Must have built in wireless (how much for broadband??)
Long-life battery
other than this I have no specific brand preference. Just a well-built quality laptop that will last me a long time and will be easy to pull out and start up when I need to use it. I’ve thought about MAC but not sure if it’s right for me.
Deadline: March 2009
