Back For The First Time...
*sighs* Today will definitely be a historic day for myself. For the first time ever since August of 2008, I will close tonight and tomorrow. Back in 8/08, I was promised and guaranteed by the HR that I would open every Saturday at 8AM and open every Sunday at 4AM. At first I thought it would suck to wake up that early on a Sunday, but I've grown very fond of it. Simply because from 4AM til 8AM (when the store opens) I don't have to deal with any guests. Back to the story at hand though, they've got me closing this weekend because they're stupid. LOL, seriously though the HR that sealed the deal with me has transferred to a new store. Now the person who makes the schedule now is pretty much just BSing me and trying to tell me the reason why I'm closing is because of staffing. He told me that it'll only be this weekend. So now I look at the newest schedule and what do I see? Once again I close next week and it's seriously like WTF?! Then he goes ahead and says the same excuse and I'm just SMH all over the place. Why does the management always have to lie and smile in your face? They should be the most honest people in the business. Real deal. Well enough my rant, I shall now try to enjoy my three hours of freedom I have left...*rolls eyes*

False Advertisement FTL!!!*
*FTL!!! = for the loss!
This is something I always found funny about TARGET. Every week we have sales on certain products. There are seven types: Sale through Saturday, Temporary Price Cut, As Advertised, Special Purchase, Free Gift Card with Purchase, New at TARGET! and Even Lower Than Our Advertised Price. Now yesterday I came across one of the rare Even Lower Than Our Advertised Price sign.
Okay now here's the bad part...
What you see in this price above is indeed the regular shelfing label for the item. According to that blue sign it said that the product this week was $11.49 and was lower than the advertised price. But the retail price is actually $11.49, so WTF is TARGET trying to do? FOOL YOU? WELL YOU CAN'T FOOL ME RED AND KHAKI DEVIL!!!
Your FAIL brought to you by TARGET!

Turbo T. Double = Holographic Double
The execution of each rapper imitated in this video/song was excellent! The feel of the video also goes in sync with the song as it should, unlike some MAINSTREAM music videos nowadays. Keep in mind that he is UNSIGNED but has a huge buzz like a QUEEN BEE. My favorite verses were when he became Kid Cudi, Wale and Charles Hamilton. If you really enjoy the vid, please send him a message at either turbo2k5@yahoo.com, turbotsst.blogspot.com or myspace.com/scrambleupwards.

Your FAIL Brought To You by T-1298
Heaven forbid there is EVER a fire at my store, I just everyone to know that I love them and I'll see them at the CROSSROADS. I took these pics at like 5AM this morning, I was so damn tired today. I drank like two RED BULLS and still was down for the count. In other news today was smooth, kinda busy for a Sunday but it was all good. I'm ready for 4:20 in more ways than one. Fanfiction.net, I'll be droppin' my newest bomb tomorrow, so be ready like Bebop and Rocksteady.
By the way even though this is blocking an EMERGENCY EXIT, the real sad part about this flatbed being out on the SALES FLOOR is the fact it won't be pushed. When I say push I mean they won't put all the freight out on it. I won't get into BIG details, but yeah...SEE YA TOMORROW!

4/20 Task List...
Since I seem to forget things easily sometimes, I've taken the liberty to make a task list for this Monday. I will finally be off from work and not going to class. Yet I will still be busy doing stuff such as:
Not a huge list, but it's gonna be time-consuming.
~TM-1
- Wash clothes
- Clean my car
- Wash the dog
- Clean the bathroom
- Vacuum the house
- Finish Chapter 9 of And She Gets Discouraged
- Tradition (inside joke)
Not a huge list, but it's gonna be time-consuming.

Wave 4 Complete...Now The Horde Grows Stronger!!!
I'm feelin' good right now! After four closes in a row, I definitely have to say this was the best one I've had all week. Saw some friends, had a good closing team and of course my lovely girlfriend to keep me company. During the night I definitely entered a zone of PURE IMAGINATION! It's like my brain drank some mental RED BULL cuz it grew wings and left the atmosphere. Definitely did some brainstorming for my original story. I actually came up with a title today. Thinking of some character designs and bios. I'm gonna drop those next week. Now let's speak of why I have a picture of a Theron Guard. The Horde aka TARGET guests will be very strong tomorrow. They will be ruthless and won't stop until they get what they want. THE HORDE GROWS STRONGER!

Round 4...FIGHT!
Man here we go again, in less than 3 hours I will be returning to TARGET for my 4th consecutive closing shift. I'm tired of closing that bit down! Thank goodness tomorrow I only work 10-6 and on Sunday I work that EARLY BIRD (4-1:30) but man oh man, I can see the next three days are gonna be like HELL. The Heritage golf tournament is gonna be happening on Hilton Head Island which means this weekend we gonna do a lot of business courtesy of old folks, tourists and just about anybody that can breathe. I'm prepared though, I've got my gladiator helmet in my trunk. I've got my boots scrapped, my spear sharpened and my shield waxed. I'M READY FOR ANYTHING! Something tells me I'm gonna have a good war story to share with you guys within the next three days. However as of right now, I'm gonna chill for my last 2 hours...

P.S.- I'm still on my BUNNY SUIT GURL ish...>_>
I've Got A Confession...
I, Michael R. Loftin Jr, have a huge bunny fetish. Like seeing girls in bunny suits make me happy in more ways than one. Nah I'm just joking...but it's like almost 3AM right now and I'm so drowsy. Trying to finish up Chapter 9 of ASGD before my deadline of 4/17. In all honestly I've been working my ass off at TARGET this week, so we're now looking at a possible 4/20 release. This chapter is gonna be huge, I might have to make it two parts. Well my eyes are 75% closed, so this blog is coming to an END.

One Way
People everyday live with tons of regrets. Me personally can't stand to regret things of my past. Everything happens for a reason, right? So why live with regrets? No one is perfect, we all make mistakes. Let's not make what became accidental something permanent. For some reason a mass of our society blames things they've done in the past as results for their present and potential future. However since you can't go back in time, why talk about something improrable? Instead learn from your mistakes, and control your future with the actions of your present. I'm pretty sure I've blogged about this before but recently I've been hearing a lot of people complaining and that's what fueled me to craft this wonderful blog.

The Return of TM-1
Things have been awfully quiet on this blog as of late. Then again that's probably because my life has been about as dull as a butter knife. However, it's time to sharpen the blade and become a dinner knife! I'm back with the freshness like produce. (lame) But in all seriousness, I have made my return. Right now I can't say there's a lot on my mind right now because it's late at night and I'm playing XBOX Live with my homies. But I can definitely say one thing...
CHAPTER 9 OF AND SHE GETS DISCOURAGED WILL BE OUT ON 4/17

The Wrestlers of Street Fighter. (just a quick Top 3)
Rainbow Mika to me is like the sexy version of Zangief. (yes hetero!) With the quickness of El Fuerte and actual raw power that closely mirrors the Red Cyclone. It's a shame that she's only been on Street Fighter Alpha 3 because she would have made a great addition to Street Fighter IV.
The Red Cyclone better known as Zangief is definitely a force to be reckoned with. Close range is his specialty. If you're in grabbing distance, you're a cooked goose. If you do five of his special moves (not the Super combo) you'll be toast. Man, all this talk about food is making me hungry.
Last but not least we've got newcomer El Fuerte in the building. One word can describe this luchador. FAST. Speed is his game, however he's definitely lacking power. With every PRO comes a CON. His Ultra Combo is silly, just like his personality. Once I figure out his move list, hopefully he'll surpass Zangief.

Internet Window Shopping
Dough Boy SO Fresh! I like this one a lot...but the largest size they have for it is indeed, a large. I know I'm really nothing but skin and bones, but I need at least a XL.
Now if you know me, you know I'm down with Mario. I mean Sonic is good too, well good in 2D, but Mario dominates all. So in honor of one of the most popular villains, I would proudly wear this BULLET BILL belt buckle. However, the only problem is that it costs $24. Maybe, NEXT TIME GADGET NEXT TIME...
Now this shirt will go great with my Nike SB dunks. Red and blue SPIDERMAN edition might I add...nuff said. COBRA COMMANDER!!!
TELL YOUR GIRL TO STOP PAGING ME! I MEAN SERIOUSLY!
More serious blogging, coming soon!

Damn...
I've messed up big time, like really really BIG. I got the most shocking news of my life last night around 3am. My girlfriend, Broudicca Fields told me something that has now turned my world upside down.
"Baby, I think I'm pregnant."
My eyeballs nearly popped outta my head so I went to WAL-MART (its OPEN 24/7) bought a pregnancy test and took it to my girl. She took multiple test and they all came up POSITIVE. TRIGGER MIKE THE GREAT is gonna be a daddy! This is definitely not a good time for this because I've got so much going on in my life and the last thing I need right now is to take care another life. I want kids, but not at 21! (I'll most likely be that age when the child is born) But as my duties of being a man, I will take care of this child no matter what!

APRIL FOOLS BEYOTCHES!
