http://www.trevordickerson.com Trevor Dickerson: A Simple Guy With Complex Thoughts Wed, 23 Jul 2008 08:27:50 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en It's 3:30 AM and again, and here I sit, awoken by some more deep thoughts about life and where I want to be. In less than an hour and a half, at 5:00 AM, I'm supposed to be on the road to Radford University to repair computers for Attronica. That's ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/345 I know what you're thinking. "Trevor, you were just down in the Outer Banks two weeks ago! What's up with that?" Well, what can I say, I'm a beach bum! Actually, it just so happened the week I went down with Jen and Allie was close to our previously-planned family ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/344 A little more than a week ago, I turned twenty. I was at the beach at the time and was on somewhat of a blogging hiatus, but I think this a post-worthy topic. Some may say that twenty's not a big deal. And in many ways, they'd be right. Think ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/341 So I had to go get my driver's license renewed yesterday. Naturally, I procrastinated and waited until the last minute to go to the DMV. That's just how I roll, I guess. Anywho, we all know what a dreaded experience the DMV is. I walked in expecting it to be ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/340 So I'm just now posting an update from the beach last week. It was a good week; had lots of fun with Allie, Jen, and her family. The weather was insanely hot, and the smoke from the nearby Hyde County wildfire was ridiculously thick, depending on which way the wind ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/338 So lately I've noticed I'm posting more because I "have" to post to adhere to Blog 365 than because I want to. The quality of my posts is not what it used to be. I love to write, but some days I don't want to and will post a sub-par ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/337 "I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody." - Bill Cosby This is the biggest challenge out of everything I've written over the past eight days. I always take on way too many projects and try to do way too many things ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/336 We all do and say things that don't match up with how we say we are personality-wise. Some call it being two-faced. Others call it not being authentic. Either way, it's not the right thing to do. We've all talked behind someone else's back, even if sometimes it's not intentional. ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/334 Life is what you make of it. The old saying that life is 10% what happens and 90% what you do about it is spot on. I've always thought of myself as a glass-half-full kind of person, but I need to do better. In order to implement all of the ... http://www.trevordickerson.com/archives/333 Almost four years ago, I purchased the domain name www.downtownshortpump.com.
