Your Work Is Shear Genius....

Stupid Adam and his Bravo TV shows........got me hooked now.

Well, at least Shear Genius, which ends in the next day or two or already has, I know they are down to the last three.

When I see Project Runway I get into it....but I don't know the people on the show as well as SG.

Then there's Tabatha's Salon Takeover. Total beeyotch at times.....then the coolest lady. I wish I had a salon in dire need of Tabatha to come in an lovingly bitch me back into shape.

If you think you may have a gay son......don't fret. It's going to be the best child in the world.

(**WARNING** I totally made these statistics up....so if they offend or if there actually ARE stats, my bad.....I'm not taking bears and those creepy leather guys into account here. I'm talking your Carson Kressley and Clay Aiken types)

If your son is gay....there's a 97% chance you'll be better off. Why? Because if you have a gay son you are going to have GREAT hair....or eat DELICIOUS food....or wear AMAZING clothes....or have a FABULOUSLY decorated home. Or all 4.

Look at the bright side.....with a gay son he will be almost guaranteed a profession---or at least a skill----in one of these categories. Therefore, you can get free haircuts & meals, or talk them into making you or your house over as long as you don't have to pay for it.

It Is A Monday, Of Course...

...And I'm more tired than many other days....don't know why.

I'm watching a show on National Geographic about the snakehead fish. Apparently this thing is no good.

I also gave a guy 6 dollars at BP tonight. What can I say.....felt bad for him.

Also had a school board meeting tonight. It only lasted about 35 minutes, but I got there like 40 minutes early.

So that's been my day....not one for the books. Except for the conversation about stitches after birthing a baby.

Hug It Out

So it's Sunday.....and nothing really happens on Sunday.

I did watch the first season of 'Entourage' today......which is really good. So far, anyway. At least 3 more seasons of it though.

I have no real plans for the rest of the night. I may do a bit of manscaping on my beard tonight....hopefully nothing that will jeopardize the beard competition.

Oh yeah....probably never mentioned my beard competition. It's between me and Andrew.....and I'm totally winning. hahahah. There aren't any real rules, but I'm just winning. In the longest hair over shortest time category anyways.

Stupid Fay is making it rain. I don't really have anything to do that the rain is keeping me from....just don't enjoy it for days in a row.

Riddle Me This....

So why is it that when people recount a story about an angry person or copy a line of dialogue from an intense movie....when they are supposed to be 'yelling'.....they actually whisper?

You know what I mean? Like "Why The Hell Are You So Stupid?!?" or "Get Off My Plane!" or "THIS....IS....SPARTA!!!" when heard is at ear-shattering levels, but when re-told or re-quoted is always whispered.

"AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!!!! (CHEEEEERRRRR/AHHHHHHHH!) .....wait, what? why did you whisper?
------------

Anyway...I apologize to at least 4 people that live in the Starkville area for not calling you, but we totally went bowling tonight.

It was indeed a good night. It began rather well as I was at my parent's house and was watching "Ratatouille" on STARZ! when I had to leave before it was over. Since I was totally getting into it it disappointed me a bit....but I'm over it.

BTW...as discussed in my previous post.....I got about 4 hours of sleep since I did get up at 7am and took those darn games to Pontotoc this morning. It's currently 2am......I can't slip up and screw with my body schedule now. It's just for the weekend, I promise. We're not that old.....we're just acting our age. (citation needed...if you know who said this you are awesome)

No, still fighthing the 'getting old' and 'normal' thing by shaking it up a bit. It is the weekend, after all, right?

Ok, I'm babbling so I'm off to bed.

No News Is Good News....

Well, I said I would be back when I figured something out.....so I'm going to bore you all with the minutia of everyday living that is my life. Well, Ok, it's not that different from every other schmohawk's blog.

And yes....I am writing this at 2am.....and there is a reason for that (me needing to get a brain moran), but more on that in a bit.

Let me catch you up:

(Cue music from "Spaced" Series 2 Episode 1)

On a good note, this summer I spent a few days in New York City---which I could call the trip of a lifetime....but I will go back, and there will hopefully be more trips in the future to other places. For pics, visit my MySpace. That was a blast. 7 people in a 7 passenger minivan for 20+ hours was not...but no one was eating Hardees Thickburgers over my shoulder or belching the alphabet, so honestly there was no one to be angry with. BTW--I only knew 2.5 of the other 6 people that went, but they all ended up being awesome!

Still at TV-7, which is going good. I'm just hoping everyday when I get more frustrated there will come that magical day when we can get some *certain* new equipment and a process of doing programming better that will take things to a new level. We have been discussing some of these things...but basically it all revolves around what the MetroCast cable system can do for us. Pretty big stuff, and since they just changed over this year it's not like we can just go in and ask for this. I know it won't make things more efficient, but it will make things easier. If that makes sense. Also, there's so many things I can be doing right now, but it's all time vs. ability. You know.....good ideas but no idea HOW to implement them or being able to actually sit down and DO them. I'm sorry, but I've changed over the last couple of years and I try to take more time for myself—maybe too much to the point of laziness. I know it sounds bad, but it just seems like I'm starting to treat it more like a 9-5 (or 10-6 in my case) and just kind of leaving things lying around. I'm not trying to be selfish but I just don't want to wake up....work...eat...and sleep. I want to throw in movies and TV in there. There are things that come with the job, like events that happen on weekends and weeknights. I don't mind that...but for example I noticed this past year that after football season I'll do some basketball games...and baseball when I can...but after May & graduations I don't really want much to do much more sports until September rolls around. It just gets complicated but I guess it's something hardwired into most people that make them not want to work. No matter what your job is. It's common, I tell myself.

Last Sunday Adam Hamilton moved in for a few weeks while his parents' house is having it's floors redone. It's been great. It's sort of like having a roomate but it's not a permanent basis really. One of the best things that has kind of gotten me 'back on track' is little things like keeping the dishes washed more regularly and most importantly going to bed and getting up at decent times. Two weeks ago I was going to bed at like 2 and barely getting up at 9.30 just in time to get a shower and get to work---a few minutes after 10. I always claimed that about this time of year I get really depressed for some reason and it may have manifested into just not wanting to go to bed or even wake up, but for some selfish/respectful reason it's helping having someone else in the house b/c I know that when my alarm goes off at 8, I'm not the only person in the house to hear me hit the snooze for over an hour. So, on Monday, Tuesday, & Thursday of this week I have gotten up at 8 and sat around for an hour....gotten ready and showing up at work at least 10 minutes early. (I only ate breakfast Monday, b/c I'm out of bread for a PB&J) On Wednesday it was raining so I didn't mow grass...and actually MADE myself sleep till 9.30ish. I felt like the day was wasted. It's a good feeling in retrospect b/c it just gives me more incentive to HATE sleeping late. Again, it's complicated but that's just how my brain works.

------
So, today--after waking up early a couple of times WITHOUT an alarm---I MADE myself sleep late (tsk tsk) b/c it was the first night of our football season. I just dicked around most of the day until time to leave. Adam FINALLY watched "Lars And The Real Girl" today, and though I took a shower during my 'favorite' part...I got out in time to see the end and have a bit of a cry. Even with missing the beginning of the 3rd act I sat down and got right back into it......right where it hits you with that last tender touching moment.

Now that it's 2.47 I'll hurry along....we went to the game...and b/c I need to get a brain Moran I didn't have an extension cord in my car and I didn't get to edit our game on the spot. WHICH MEANS: I would have been done at 9.30.....home at 11.....and all would be right with the world. Alas, no....I had to re-edit 2.5 hours of my game.....and now I have to get up at 7am Saturday morning to take it to Pontotoc. Maybe I AM putting enough extra time into the job, or maybe I'm just a schmohawk.

Let's just say self esteem isn't too high right now.

See you soon.

No Updates....WohWoah

So......sorry, but no updates. Some things just aren't the same. I think I started this before I even knew what Myspace was, and probably before Facebook was a twinkle in...ummm, whoever invented Facebook's dad' eye.

Until I figure out a new direction for this thing....just go watch some crazy cat videos on YouTube.
