New York City Cat Cafe


As you can see, I'm desperate for views.  I've fallen to the lowest denomination to attract any potential readers/viewers out there by posting cat pics.  I've had it with these low ratings.  I can't survive like this.  I need to do something Jurassic.  No cats were hurt during this production.  Yes, this is the cat cafe.  It's basically $5 for 30 minutes, but if you talk to the host nicely he'll give you 40 minutes.  I would do the same if customers be bitching at me all the time.  It's small, small place.  Everything in the city is small and most importantly EXPENSIVE.  There are always people coming in and going out, so business is good.  I'll just you what it looks like inside.  



 

 
 
 
 


Yup, there's a second location across the street, separate from where the cats are held.  There's everything there you can think of.  THEY HAVE EVERYTHING.  They have food and beverages.  Macaroons are priced at about $2.50 a piece.  For such a small pastry, they're expensive.  I didn't feel like eating my money away at the time.  As for the cats, they're sleeping MOST OF THE TIME.  There's even a little crawl space for the cats to walk in the back, locked door where it's dark.  I guess there's a ton of cats hiding in there from the public.  Cats sleep 16 hours a day.  They don't look interested in playing with people at all.  They're mostly just lazing around.  Make no mistake, these are some very lazy cats.  There's a crazy cat lady with extensive details and information about each and every cat.  We did a walk in but most people there reserve their time to be there.  In a nut shell, most of the cats are either sleeping or lazying around in their own private, little world.  For the most part, they don't bite or scratch people.  They're very comfortable at sleeping and doing nothing.  You can adopt them for $150 or so.  They probably have additional hidden fees and whatnot.  

Well, I'm off to work the rest of the week.  Thank God, the company gave me off today for Memorial Day.  I didn't see much action.  It was a peaceful day.  I didn't have to work my ass off.  I enjoyed my time doing nothing.  I went to the pool and tried to relax.  What else can I say?  Whatever happens, we all have to go back to work the next day.  

I hope you enjoyed my post.  I put in the extra effort to throw in some more unique, interesting content.  I haven't had any luck having ground breaking news lately or if ever, but I keep on trying.  As always, thanks for coming!  I hope to see you next time!

Rock Bottom

I've noticed my views have been close to zero to none recently.  I have not been posting any content whatsoever in the last past week or so.  From what I gather, this is it.  Yup, whatever is here on this blog is a sample of what seems to be my maximum potential of the digital age.  Have I done whatever I planned to accomplish a year ago?  Have I amounted to do anything unique and creative?  Did I even bother to give a flying f*ck about this blog!?  Judging by the little or no views I get on a daily basis the answer is quite simple, no.  Guess what?  It's back to the drawing board.  Whatever the hell it is I'm doing is not working.

To tell you the truth, I'm working.  I make my biweekly paycheck like a wage slave and that's all there is to it.  I've never made it out alive doing anything on my own.  There's always pros and cons.  Okay, so I've made a few bucks here and there but there's very little or no sustainability.  Welcome to the hell I guess.  You always need to keep up with attracting potential customers, sales, and doing it all over again the next day.  Failure to rinse and repeat whatever works day in and day out will result in nothingness.

I am a wage slave.

On the plus side, I got to meet my family during the weekend.  We got to eat lots of food together.  It was brilliant and time well spent, but I still felt a lot of lethargy and nothing being accomplished.  Maybe it's just my personality, but I always want to see the numbers go up.  Maybe I take family and friends for granted all the time.  I am a simple man who just wants the money.  Perhaps there is more to life like watching a good movie together?  Whatever it is, I don't want things to just be so salty.  I want to have a positive attitude and believe in the good.  Unfortunately, I see otherwise.  Things are always about money.  People never seem to get enough.  As a result, I just like to dwell in my own world, away from others.  What's the point of pretending to like people?  To make money?  It's real shallow.  I don't know how I've been fitting in nor do I care.  I'm not sure if it's a money thing or not.  By now, someone of my age should be having their own home and their own wife and kids.  Again, it's a money thing.  RAISING A FUNCTIONAL FAMILY IS EXPENSIVE!  Mom and dad has to go to work, be a wage slave, and the kid(s) grow up with no one around.   That's not a life I want for anyone.  I wish money wasn't such a big issue.  We are wage slaves.  We are slave to the money.  No time for games or having fun.

In the end, all we can change is our attitude.

Thank you for dropping by.  I've had very little or absolutely zero readers the past day.  It's so important that I appreciate each and everyone one of you just because of it.

The Working Poor



Yes, I come visit New York City ALL THE TIME.  I guess my family is here.  The point being is I DON'T LIKE THE CITY.  Everything is so expensive.  All we do is EAT CHINESE FOOD.  CHINESE PEOPLE EAT CHINESE FOOD.  Is there more to it?  Nope, that is exactly what it is.  What about all the exciting places you see on television and movie theaters?  The reality is no one cares in real life!  People who have money don't exist in real life.  They're not interested in helping you or your career.  THEY DON'T CARE.  THINGS COST MONEY.  IT'S ONE BIG BUSINESS OPERATION.  All those fancy buildings and apartments are only for those people YOU DON'T KNOW.  If you want to do something fun it's going to cost you an arm and leg.  It's virtually an unplayable Nintendo game without having to pay to win.  The bottom line is YOU NEED MONEY.
YOU PAY TO PLAY.  YES, YOU NEED TO PAY TO WIN.

In the first paragraph of expressing myself, I'm probably not someone you want to hangout with.  You can tell I'm very frugal and uncaring all at the same time.  I'm as solitude and passive as all hell to be honest.  If I won the lottery would I ever go to New York City to have fun and spend it all?  I don't think I would ever find fun in the city unless it was at one of those adult rated clubs.  Renting out an apartment and just trying to live there without having to work doesn't seem like my thing.  I'm very goal orientated and don't just like chilling out.  There are all kinds of places to eat and places to see.  I'm not entirely sure if it's the money thing or the place itself.

I feel that I need a break.  I need to rest this week.  Trying to make money, investing it, saving, paying bills, and seeing it all go up in flames paying student loans just takes a chunk out of your soul.  Sometimes, I just don't want to give a crap anymore.

Well, thanks for visiting.  Hopefully, I'll be in a better mood next time.

Welcome to My Shop!

Hi kidz.  Well, here it is:  Another one of my non-award Academy winning videos.  I would like to thank the public school system for wasting all my time studying text books that has no real world application to the average man.  At least my grammar and spelling mistakes isn't that bad.  I tried a little bit harder this time.  I shut down the humidifier off so the sound quality is a bit better.  There's lighting.  I'm even wearing a funny shirt.  The background is lively and fun.  I compressed the video quality just enough so I can upload it in less than 5 minutes.  Yes, the video quality is sacrificed for upload speed.  Overall, it's a good trade.  Without compressing the video, it could take the whole day to upload on my internet connection.

What else is there to say but watch my video!  I guess I'm slowly turning into a vlogger now.  Other than my same old pep talk about people being lazy, things are the same.  The only thing in my power is to make more videos.  I'm going to keep trying.  I know I will fail along the way, but I am willing to learn from my mistakes.  I even took some time to edit the gun shot fire.  Unfortunately, my free video edit software makes it hard.  You need to buy the real thing to get anywhere good without making the video look like a clown carnival.  Oh well, maybe next time.

Thank you for your support and paying attention to my material.  I hope to better improve my video and sound quality and of course come up with content that doesn't suck.  See you next time!

My Weekend Has Ended

I'm out of time.  That was it.  I had three days off Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.  Oh right, I made a donation at the local Goodwill.  All they do is just leave you with a receipt with the number of bags you left them.  I always wanted to do this but never saw the window of opportunity.  Well, it's always there if need be.  You just itemize your own items and put them on an excel spreadsheet.



So I made this myself, because they don't count your items at the Goodwill donation center.


Since I am expecting to work "normal people" hours this year, I guess I'll be making bank this year and guess what?  Yes, you have to dish out a butt load of tax money every year if you're working full time.  Hopefully, they don't audit me.  I have video and pictures documenting my donations to Goodwill.  The last thing I want is for the IRS to come after me.

I also used one of those gift card websites to sell my Banana Republic gift card that no one wants.  The store is not for me.  It's expensive.  All you can get with $50 is a pair of jeans or 2 items off the clearance rack.  It's just a terrible place for poor people to be shopping there.  If the clearance rack can't do justice then something is wrong.  Long story short, $50 nets me $32 cash ($35 max if you use snail mail).  You have to wait a day or two for them to approve your gift card and even provide them with your credit card in the event that something wrong happens.  It's like selling a used car at the dealership.  The good news is that you can buy gift cards to almost any store for 10%-20% off.  Click my link if you're interested in signing up!



That pretty much sums up my weekend.  I also went to New York on Saturday, but I've been there so many times already that I'm sick of it.  It's never been a special place to me.  It's expensive, you have to pay tolls, there's no parking, there's dog poop all over the sidewalks, the apartments are over valued, etc.  I guess the city is not for me.  Everything is just so overpriced and expensive in comparison to living in the suburbs.  I wouldn't even trust my networking skills to keep up with the people there.  If I need some quiet time to relax and be free there would be very little time and place for that.  Everything in the city just keeps adding up in price.  I need to go some where affordable and cheap.  Thank God, I've never had to resort to picking up garbage and recycle cans for money.  I've seen those places by the pier.  No, it's not a great place to be.  No, you probably wouldn't be having much fun.  No, you probably wouldn't be making easy money.  Like anything else, recycling Coke cans in exchange for money is no different than the feeling of any other grind.  Anything involved making money usually involves having to work.  Speaking of which, I go back tomorrow.  Sadly, they've already texted me a patient that needs a x-ray in the morning.  Yeah, it's sad.  These people can't survive a day without x-rays.  It's perfect for a sustainable business model to be making money around the clock but sad at the same time.  Well, I hope everyone has a blessed weekend!  I know I will be working.

Thank you for reading my material.  I hope to add new content for next weekend when I have time to blog.  God bless!
