I can be still be entertaining without the raunch, I think. Not that the real blog is raunchy. It&#8217;s just more honest and uncensored.)<\/p>\n<p>Yesterday was probably one of the worst I&#8217;ve had in a long time. You&#8217;ve all read the previous entry so you know that I&#8217;ve gone into hiding again. Just when the blog was starting to potentially become lucrative.<\/p>\n<p>This is a new day and I&#8217;m starting a new blog. Brian calls this the &#8220;fluff&#8221; blog for those uptight folks who can&#8217;t handle the racy, graphic stuff. Incidentally, the raunchy stuff is still <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.virtualdumpster.com\/ching\/\" >there<\/a>. It&#8217;s just under lock and key now. If you want access, just email me (except for you, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.macapinlac.com\" >Ritchie<\/a>; I have your request down already). Now that it&#8217;s private and I have the ability to choose who I grant access, it&#8217;s better than ever. I&#8217;ve always censored myself in a way. Now I won&#8217;t have to hold anything back. I may even put videos now. Just kidding. I make no promises. We&#8217;ll just have to wait and see where our mood takes us.<\/p>\n<p>Possibly the worst part about yesterday is being late to class on the very first day. You all know how much I pride myself on my punctuality. As someone who comes to work at least a half an hour early, I really hate being late to anything. When 5:30 pm (which is what time my MW class starts) rolled around and I was still on the phone, I just wanted to cry. All I could do was send an email to the instructor, letting her know that I was running late.<\/p>\n<p>When I finally got off the phone, I hastily closed down everything. Actually, the computer was taking forever to shut down so I just in the power button. On my way out, I debated whether or not I should even bother coming to class that day. I didn&#8217;t want to enter the room and disrupt the discussion. Although, it was the first day and I calculated that with going over the syllabus and the schedule I probably hadn&#8217;t missed much. So I made the decision to go. I figured that saving myself the embarrassment of being late probably wasn&#8217;t worth missing a day of class.<\/p>\n<p>They were just finishing their first in-class exercise when I arrived. They hadn&#8217;t even gone over the syllabus and schedule yet. I was relieved that I had made the correct decision, quite a change as I am often apt to make wrong ones.<\/p>\n<p>Sheryl was really understanding. She didn&#8217;t single me out or anything. Perhaps she felt that I felt bad enough. The embarrassment and internal agony was enough punishment for something that I didn&#8217;t even cause. Okay, so maybe my poor time management skills are at fault. I figured a half an hour would be sufficient to resolve the customer&#8217;s concern. Little did I know I was going to be dealing with a lunatic.<\/p>\n<p>When I got home, I went straight to work on this &#8220;fluff&#8221; blog and password-protecting the other one. I had a glass of sangria to relieve some stress and to help me sleep. It didn&#8217;t work, though. I couldn&#8217;t get any sleep last night. I think I&#8217;m going to have two glasses tonight and see if that works better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(I know I wasn&#8217;t gone for that long, but I couldn&#8217;t stand the thought of not blogging.
