BBBL2 SWAG!!
Photo-A-Day #1469

If I could get a job just giving away sweet fantastic swag I would be in total heaven. I love giving away prizes to people whether free or through raffles. Tomorrow night I get to give away a bunch of things. I have some IZEA Swag, 3 XShots, 5 Speeding Tickets and 2 Flip Ultras.

Blogs, Brews and Belly Laughs II: Laughter for a Cause is tomorrow night and there is quite some buzz around it. With the Facebook page, Twitter contest and all the word of mouth advertising this is shaping up to be an incredible night. I stopped in to the Speed of Thought Playhouse and chatted with Christian. He’s really excited about the night ahead as well.

You can be a part of the event as well even if you cannot make it in person. You can be there live on Stickam. You can even participate by following me on Twitter @benspark. I’ll tweet out requests for suggestions and you can tweet back using the hashtag #bbbl2 and #icause.

Ignore Small Annoyances To Gain Great Results

My friend Courtney of Ride to Remedy gave me this fortune. Even though I moved my daily fortunes over to FortunateBluFrog I wanted to post this one from Courtney as it goes with my day.

This morning I got up to go to the gym. I noticed that the door to the dining room was closed and only Oliver was in the living room. Oh No, I opened the door and my olfactory senses smacked me into reality. Duncan was locked in the dining room overnight. 5:00am and cat crap = not my favorite Monday.

So then I went to work and find that someone had been using my desk on Friday. This is not really a big deal most of the time because we are set up to have people sit at any desk in the entire company. However, if you sit at someone’s desk you don’t change their set, move their stuff and knock over their toys. You know the feeling you get when the chair you sit in every day is not what you are used to. That was what I was feeling all day.

Now before you go thinking I am just complaining hold on I have a point. These were just small annoyances. Things could always be worse. So, are there some small annoyances that you are putting up with right now to gain great results in the future?

Blogs, Brews and Belly Laughs II is this weekend. The event is being sponsored by IZEA. They gave me money to throw a great event for a cause and I’m so excited to work with Speed of Thought Playhouse to host a great evening LIVE and online. Stop by my post titled Being Responsible and leave a comment about the event please.
