As most of you know I can be a multi-tasking nut at times, but every once in a while you really need to cut loose a bit and put it into neutral. 

Normally when I have my Zen MP3 player stuck in my ears I’m listening to something semi-educational.  Either a lecture, news story or instructional audio (learning basic Korean now). 

But today.. I take a break and just enjoy the fact that it’s Friday.  Won’t you join me and  my Friday Work mix and just celebrate the end of a productive week and the gateway to the weekend?  And no headphones today.. using the speakers and kicking up the woofer.. the whole office is gonna share my mood today!

After not taking my daily walk for a while I finally set to one of our local greenways and my has the weather changed since I was last out!   The car was so nice and cozy, how could it be so cold outside?  I had remembered that I had put a coat in my car for emergancies so I figured I could just throw that on…  well.. let’s just say it appears that one of my cats got it and it’s going into the dumpter now.  So.. long story short I did have an extra sweatshirt with me, doubled it up and managed to get a little over a mile in anyhow.  Determination!!!

So.. apparently it’s getting a little cooler.. I think I see a trend here.. someone tell Mr. Gore please!  Anyways…  I took my walk today somewhere much warmer, my local Target.  I was talking to my virtual wife in thesimsonline.com about how I needed a new jacket and breifly described what I was looking for.  Wouldn’t you know in seconds she shot back a link to a jacket I loved!!!  (She’s a smart girl, my Paulina is.)  It’s a Mossimo Military Jacket in Black.  The fit was just right and no gaudy designer labels and lots of pockets for all my gadgets!  Of course since I was going to call this little adventure my power walk (yea I know, that’s a stretch) I had to go up and down every isle of the store (and I think security was following me), but while I was doing my laps I came across another item I’ve been wanting for a long time.. a walking stick!!

“Dude.. Your gonna kill me…   my foot slipped on the pedal and I totally whaled into your car!” — That’s the phone call I got from someone out in the parking lot at work. 

Fortunately he was a bit excited and exaggerated a little.

Some of you who have been following me on twitter, have already noticed that I now have several different websites now.

There are several reasons I have done this, not the least of which is vanity but as part of a greater vision as well.  For now, I just want to let you know what direction eat site is going into.

PaulMonaco.org- This site will be focusing on on the philosophical and philanthropic sides of life and the humanization of our society.  You know.. Buddhist stuff :-)  - But so much more.

PaulMonaco.net - The technical side of life will be addressed here.  New toys, technology and other stuff of interest to the pocket protector crowd

PaulMonaco.com - Anything else that doesn’t fit into the .net or .org site will fall here.  I suspect my day to day adventures and activities will stay here.

It will take a few months for everything to fall into place and I’m confident when it does each site will have their significant stregth  and be that much more valuable to the demographic they attract.

If any of your are interested in an easy and cost effective way of managing multiple sites and domains, I strongly endorse my provider of choice.. 1 and 1 Internet.  Please check them out, my experience with them has been flawless.. including tech support.
