didn't go to the lobby tonight.

frankly, I am scared of getting sick. many of the lounge lizards are coughing up a storm now. for some reason, they don' t think they are contagious. as a result, I decided to stay away for a few days. as it were, I may be sick already, and it is just a matter of a few days before I start showing symptoms of the flu.

so, what did I do today, you ask? ..in a word, study.

I signed up for access to the 5 star forum so that I can learn more about affiliate marketing. pretty good information for beginners. learned all these new techniques for increasing traffic to a website.

http://www.strongestlinks.com/directories.php was one notable site I encountered.
http://adwords.google.com/select/Login is another.

read some stuff on PPC - Pay Per Click systems.

finished training - part 1. editing it now. so much stuff listed on 5 star, I haven't quite gotten a handle on it yet. there are pages and pages of postings to read. got so involved with the 5 star site that I didn't bother to go to the sales force site today. oh well, will continue tomorrow. can only read so much in one day.

received an email from marco polo today. one of my vietnamese UK friends. he's in vietnam right now. talk about surprises. haven't seen him in close to a year. he invited me over to hang out with him in vietnam. but I told him I'm too busy right now.

all of a sudden, I feel tired right now. it's been a loooong day.
