New Randomnessosicty

Well, I dont particularly know that I have anything new to report, but my blog looked bare. So, I will write something, but I dont know what. My roommates are watching a movie right now, and Davis, the more "intellectual" of us, is explaining the advantages of watching a movie with the subtitles. I really don't notice much of a difference, except for being distracted by the little words at the bottom. I mean seriously, who needs to know that they are whispering inaudible phrases? If the are inaudible, why do you need to have a subtitle to tell you so? Isn't a subtitle there for people who cant hear in the first place. so everything would be inaudible. I don't know. maybe I'm just crazy.
I went to a wedding today and it was a different experience than what I expected. It was good and all, but it wasn't as exciting as one would have hoped. Perhaps it was because it wasn't my wedding, but I don't know for sure. Rumor has it that when it is your own wedding all you are thinking about is the wedding night anyhow. I suppose that the wedding did contribute to my personal life in at least one way. It made me realize that I need to stop being such a lazy piece of poo and actually start dating people. So from henceforth, I am officially available. All I need now is for an attractive girl to start reading my blog so she knows.
OK, well the randomness has come to an end. Oddly enough this blog is becoming therapeutic. It's basically a good way to get my thoughts out and then get some feedback without actually talking to anyone. I am glad Al Gore invented the internet so I could have this recourse.

Chivalry is Dead to me.

Well, I can imagine that by reading this title you expect a story. So I plan on giving you one. However, there is some background info needed. At work, there is a list to sign up on so you can get off early if it is a slow call day. (I work for UPS at a call center). Anyhow, I have kinda made a name for myself by always going home early. Call me lazy if you want, but I have to be good at something, even if it is being lazy. Anyhow, there is one person who always beats me to be first on the list, and she gets to go home before I do sometimes. I take this as a challenge to my position.

So I set my alarm one half hour earlier on Friday. because we had plans to go and see Blades of Glory. I wake up and all is going well. I made it to work 45 minutes earlier than I am scheduled to start. In the back of my head I figured that would give me plenty of time to be the first on the list. So I am walking into work, and an attractive young lady walks up behind me. I being the gentleman that I WAS, opened the door and held it for her. I then proceeded to the list so i could be sure to be the first one to leave. I looked ahead and saw that this young lady was also signing up on the list. No big deal I thought, she is a different skill, and I will still be the first one to leave. When I grasped the pen and the paper, I peered at the list, and lo and behold that vermin that I had opened the door for was my only true enemy. It was the same girl that I had been competing against to be first in line. I was ashamed at having manners. And that is the story of how Chivalry died for me.

Well, it's late and I can't sleep. If you notice a sudden change in my typing it is because my pinky has healed now, and I am able to press and hold shift better. Anywho, it has been a while, and I guess that the 3 people who read this blog need to see something new. I haven't written anything because it is hard for me to remember funny stories and that seems to be what writing a blog is all about. Luckily I live with someone who experiences most of my funny stories with me, and is kind enough to remind me of what I can write.

So there I was, bored in a mall. I had seen many times those ads for Sleep Number beds. So I decided to check them out while I was there. My room mate Travis went to the shoe store while I was looking. When I was wrapping things up he came into the store. the polite sales man asked if we were together and I said yes. He kinda gave us one of those funny looks, and then went back to his desk. Then it clicked, and I said we are together, but not like that. I mean, we are friends, and we hang out....... WE AREN'T SHARING THE BED IF THATS WHAT YOU WANT TO KNOW OK? At that point everyone in the whole sleep number store had dropped what they were doing and laughing out loud at us. it was a pretty embarrassing moment. We quickly left, and lets just say that I don't think I am gonna be buying a sleep number any time soon.

Other than that all is well in the little shell of a life that I have. I can't think of much else to say, so I will call it a night, and consult my blog shrink for next times edition. Same blog time, same blog channel. Adios.

Useless Talents and Mantras

Hmm, where to start? i was thinking that if i took the time to make a blog i should make at least some faint efforts in updating it from time to time. i haven't really made any astounding discoveries, or uncanny observations, but i did discover a talent i have. its not necessarily a valuable talent, but it is a talent none the less. it is the ability to get people in trouble for doing things that they haven't really done. IE. when i was younger i would sit on one end of the couch and tell my sister to stop hitting me. the entire time she was in her bedroom. but low and behold, as my mom could only hear my screams, and not see the atrocities from which i was suffering, my sister was promptly punished. I'm not sure if it is a talent i should disclose, or even brag about. i also must confess that i have never used this talent for the evil purposes that you suppose it could be used for. only as harmless jokes to get my siblings sent to their rooms, or as i did tonight, to get my roommate into trouble with his fiance. that too is a funny story, but i wont tell it because it is still too fresh to risk opening those wounds again. the half-way mark came and went last week. i only had to fail one midterm to realize how hopeless getting a respectable GPA is. maybe in my next life i will be a smart kid. but for now i have to stick to the mantra of C's and D's get degrees. i suppose that if i would actually apply myself and not worry about sleeping then i would do much better. but i think that this particular blog has become lengthy and boring. tune in for the next time i am feeling poetic.

Heres for you TJ

Well, it has been quite some time since I have blogged. My roommate seems to remind me daily, so this is for him. i dont particularly know yet what i will rant about in this particular episode. i would say valentines day, seeing as how it is today, but i dont really have much to complain about. i do prefer to call it by its lesser known, but more proper name. singleness awareness day. i learned today that working at UPS and big holidays where things need to be delivered by a certain time dont mix well. i am definately looking forward to sleeping tonight. there isnt really anything new for me beside that. i just ordered some new sunglasses, and i am pretty pumped about that, i cant wait for the summer. i miss being hot. it has been quite sometime since i have been hot. hotness is great. i never thought i would say it, but i miss it. TJ made a ver interesting observation the other day. he noticed that in the fall when it starts to get like 60 or 70 degrees we put sweatshirts on, and complain about the cold. but in the spring when it does it, we roll the windows down and bust out the flip flops and shorts. it made me chuckle because it is so true. anyhow. i guess thats all. HAPPY NOW?

Christmas Time, NOW?!?!

Ok, I understand that some people really love Christmas, and dont get me wrong so do I. But I feel like we as Americans are seriously neglecting another important holiday in Thanksgiving. I mean seriously, this is a day that people plan their diets around. Some of my favorite memories as a child reside not on Christmas day, but on the very day of giving, thanks that is. Or maybe turkey. I dont want anyone to think that this has something to do with my obesity. I am serious about protesting that all Christmas-ness and Christmas-esque objects be delayed until at least the 4th Friday in November. I mean, you dont see us overlooking other crucial holidays in lew of Christmas. I just get the feeling that the next victim could be Halloween, and if that happens, nobody will have an excuse to dress up as a whore. You may ask what prompts my sudden outburst, and I will tell you that the last straw was when I walked into school on the 5th of November and they were putting up a Christmas Tree right in the middle of the lobby. I wanted to tear it down and start a revolt then and there, but I held back, and instead decided to create this blog. Anyhow, I think I am done raving now. LONG LIVE TURKEY DAY!

Its 2:22 and all is well

Well, I suppose that this is the first post of what could be many, it will be short, because I will be honest. I dont have much of any random thoughts at this moment. So this is just like a test to see how it runs. More later.
