Consumption
Had some Cappy D's for lunch. It was good. That should fulfill my grease requirement for the day. "I tell ya, it was a grind trying to fill 10 hours a week. I'm not sure I was ready to have my own talk show set." - Cosmo Kramer from "The Merv Griffin Show" lol Well nothing else much is going on. Went to get my oil changed and by the BANK on my way home from work. Still no word from the doctor. I may try to call again here in a bit. Why is it I always think of lots of things to say while I'm driving, but by the time I get to my 'puter, they are usually forgotten. I need to keep a blog recorder. Sample: "Fourteen hundred thirty hours. Just had a thought. Yadda yadda yadda... out!" "Why she had to go, I don't know, she wouldn't say. I said something wrong. Now I long for yesterday. Yesterday, love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away. Oh, I believe in yesterday..."
Reflection
KYLE and I were reflecting the other day on the early days of the Internet. Remember TELNET? The "finger" command. lol Remember those early internet accounts? 10 hours per month for $9.99. Oh man, that's like one day now. lol Remember when it was cool to get cute little corny forwards? That was cool for like a week, then you just started deleting them all. Remember when you would always ask for a reply-receipt? lol What about 2400 baud? ROFL Oh man, those were the days. Memories... misty-blue-screen-colored memories...
I have just been reading this interview with Courtney Cox in today's USA TODAY. Looks like there is definitely going to be a FRIENDS spinoff on NBC. I had heard this several weeks ago, so I guess this just confirms it. "Joey", starring Matt Leblanc, on NBC, 2004.
The NEW YORK move talk has quieted down. Need to get that stirred back up. Wheels in motion, people. lol Let's see, what else? I've read just about everyone's blog that I know to read. I have work to do, but I'm putting it off. Just sent MATT my college football picks for the week. I was 5-2 against the spread last week--not too shabby (adam sandler voice). Of course, I don't gamble. It's just for fun to see how I do.
Here's my picks this wk:
Michigan (even) at Minnesota
Oklahoma (-5.5) @ Texas
Georgia (-1.5) @ Tennessee
Virginia (-2.5) @ Clemson
Kansas State (-3) @ Oklahoma State
Texas Tech (-16) vs. Iowa State
Wisconsin (+3) vs. Ohio State
Wow, I need to go to APPLEBEES. I haven't been since like Friday. That's quite a drought for me.
"Got a good reason, for taking the easy way out. She was a day tripper, one way ticket, yeah. It took me so long, to find out. But I found out..."
Intentions
Elaine: George, that woman just looked at you. George: So what? What am I supposed to do? Elaine: Go talk to her. George: Elaine, bald men, with no jobs, and no money, who live with their parents, don't approach strange women. ------------ George: Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice that you were looking in my direction. Victoria: Oh, yes I was. You just ordered the same exact lunch as me. George: (deep breath) My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents. Victoria: (smiling) I'm Victoria. Hi. How's that to start your day off my friends? A little SEIN always helps the day go better. Well, I'm sitting here, nibbling on the last bit of this pop-tart. Nothing much is going on. Work is going well this morning. Lots of calls, but good calls. I was talking to AMBER earlier and I was like, "Well you're not too talkative." She was like, "Sorry, I was reading your blog." ROFL See? That's the point. Everyone reads my blog, so I have no need to communicate verbally. It's great. Or bad. Whichever. Got two more hits from people search for the STING commercial. That's like my most famous attraction on the blog, apparently. GARY COLEMAN read the TOP TEN LIST on LETTERMAN last night. lol It was great. It was like, "Top Ten Differences If Gary Coleman had been elected governor" or something to that effect. One of them was like, "Unlike Arnold, I would admit I was not qualified." lol Another one was, "I would appoint a committee to investigate what Willis really was talking about." ROFL The L-MAN is great. LENO is soooo last week. Guess I'll head to D-TOWN at some point today or tonight to re-do the voice work on the VIPERS thing. I got to preview what KYLE had done so far. It looks really good. For all your video needs, weddings, commercials, music videos, dance recitals, barmitzvahs, whatever--check out www.lookmom.net. The YANKEES got beat last night. I wonder when was the last time the CUBS and SOX won postseason games on the same day. lol Probably watch some of the baseball game tonight. Also gonna try to stay up and catch MERLE HAGGARD on LETTERMAN. Hopefully, I'll make it. Today would've been JOHN LENNON'S birthday. "Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life I love you more..."

Relaxation
I just got home a little bit ago. It's been a long day. Called the doctor's office about 1:30 and they still didn't have my results. Said they'd call me when they got them. Surely I'll hear something tomorrow. Went to do the voice work at KYLE'S. Then we went and shot a little POOL. Started out playing teams with WES and JAMES. We split two games. BELLE and TINA were workin'. Just assumed my tea was free. lol Our play has improved so much since we really started playing regularly. Afterwards, went to BIBLE STUDY. Then to my part-time job. Came home and warmed up some chicken casserole for dinner. And now I'm just relaxing for a bit before bed. Watching the YANKEES get beat--down 5-2 right now in the 8th. Oh, and KYLE was apparently unhappy with the voice work, so he wants me to come back over there tomorrow. He also said they may want some help filming the band thing Saturday. So we'll see how that goes. It's been a tiring day, but a good day. I felt better today than I have in at least a week or more. I just want to thank everyone for their concern these past few days. I'm blessed to have some great friends and wonderful people in my life. "What did you think I would say at this moment, when I'm faced with the knowledge, that you just don't love me? Did you think I would curse you, or say things to hurt you? Cos you just don't love me no more. What do you think I would give at this moment? If you stay I'd subtract twenty years from my life..."
Election
Gary Coleman got 12,000+ votes in the recall, good enough to finish 8th. That's just wrong on so many levels. Don't forget, he was the original Arnold, on Diff'rent Strokes. lol (insert suitable "what you talkin' 'bout Willis" line here) So Ah-nuhld didn't just get elected because of celebrity status. You also apparently have to be over 5 feet tall, AND have had a semi-hit movie/show in the past fifteen years. Just kiddin'. It's not nice to make fun of people, is it? GC did beat Mary Carey, the porn empress, and Gallagher. About to have some SONIC for lunch. Tryin' the new patty melt today. I'm tired of seein' the commercial and wonderin' how it tastes. Update later. lol "And I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like they do. But I'm sorry now. And I don't know how, to get it back to good..."
Persuasion
"In two years, not having a blog will be comparable to not having indoor plumbing..." ROFL That was my humorous comment this morning while trying to persuade BUNNY to join the blog revolution. Theriouthlah you guyth. Otherwise, just another day here at Branch Davidian East. I'm "Cali-recalled" to death and I'm sure you are, too. Obviously, that whole thing got blown out of proportion, and kind of makes a mockery of the system. But at least the attention is on Cali and everyone is making fun of them now. Besides, maybe the system needs to be made a mockery of once in awhile. I hope there's not like a nationwide recall-mania though. I was surfing around and there is actually a Recall Bush website now. Heh heh. (www.bushrecall.org or www.votetoimpeach.org) I had no idea those were out there. I'm sure there is or will be a Recall Riley (our governor) site soon. Anyhow, the neatest thing to me was that the Lt. Gov. who finished second to Arnold had the same last name as one of the best men's billiards players in the world, Francisco Bustamante. lol For some reason, well because ARNOLD wasn't born here, I guess, it also reminded me of the SEINFELD where ELAINE says to FRANK, "So you weren't born here." He's like, "No. I can never be President. That's why I never had an interest in politics. They don't want me. I don't want them!!!!" lol Planning to try to drop by KYLE'S to read the VIPERS script this evening. If we have time, we might play some BILLIARDS. Then I have BIBLE STUDY, and of course my usual weekly Wednesday night second job after that. Looking forward to some left-over chicken casserole for dinner, at some point. Still haven't heard anything on the ultrasound. I've sort of put it out of my mind. I've prayed about it and there's nothing else I can do for now. Remember when this song was like "it"... 1989 babee! "Since you been gone I can do whatever I want. I can see whomever I choose. I can eat my dinner in a fancy restaurant. But nothing, I said nothing can take away these blues. Cos nothing compares, nothing compares 2 u..."
Additions
Well I've added a couple of links over here, to ERIC'S blog and KEVIN'S blog. Hopefully, they won't mind. KEVIN usually makes some humorous observations about KYLE. lol Hopefully, BUNNY will be starting a blog soon. Otherwise, I'll have to post her home address and phone number here. lol I've also rearranged some of the links, and put the blogs I don't check that often in a separate group. Enjoy! Was glad to see the MARLINS beat the CUBS last night. Poor Cubs fans. lol Go YANKEES! Here's a cool story, or not: "A couple in Waite Park, Minnesota, are in jail following an argument over what to watch on TV. The 23-year-old male came home Monday night to find his 19-year-old girlfriend watching the Lifetime channel on TV. He flipped over to Monday Night Football, and an argument ensued. The girlfriend eventually went into the kitchen, got a steak knife, and stabbed him in the arm. He retaliated by stabbing her in the head." Ouch! Well, we know how women are about their Lifetime. Maybe they should think about getting a second TV.. or picture in a picture.. or counseling. lol Come to think of it, the whole episode will make a good Lifetime movie. Watch for it next year... starring Patrick Duffy and Lindsey Wagner. Woooooo!!! "Please, I think I've reached the point in my life where I can tell the difference between nougat and cookie. So let's not just say things that we both know are obvious fabrications." - GLC from "The Dealership" lol Well, that's all I know for now. Happy Wednesday! "I've seen fire and I've seen rain. I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end. I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend. But I always thought that I'd see you again..."

Completion
Got LAUNDRY done. Sittin' here watchin' the baseball game. It's the only thing on. It sure is weird for there to be a playoff game in Wrigley Field. lol Let me rant on baseball just a moment. Come April, for the first three or four weeks, it's great. But the season is soooo long and the games are generally boring. I mean, after the All-Star break, it's like a double marathon at a snail's pace. Football starts and you forget about baseball, then all of a sudden, they start the playoffs. lol And in baseball, the playoffs are really the only halfway interesting thing, to me anyway. Now, as for going to a game in person, that is a great overall experience. But still, as far as the continual excitement of the game, I'll take football anyday. I mean, in a big football game, fans go crazy every play. You stand up the whole time, if you're there. Never see that in baseball, even in Game 7 of the World Series. The fans might stand in the ninth inning, but that's about it. Another thing is, the baseball announcers on these networks (namely Fox) are the worst. So, where did all this come from you might wonder. Well one of the brilliant sportswriters in the small local paper I get here wrote that there's nothing like the excitement of baseball. lol He said something to the effect of, "In other sports, close games and races are won or lost in the blink of an eye. A last-second basket, a touchdown run, or a last-lap pass, and its over." And this was apparently a bad thing to him. In other news, I got a knock at my door about 4:45 this afternoon. Since I rarely have unexpected company, I looked out the window and saw it was Dad. He wanted to take me out to eat. My parents like never come over here. They've probably been here a total of five or six times in all the years I've lived here. I always have to go see them. But anyway, I think it probably has something to do with my health here lately. So we went to a little catfish place just on the edge of town. It was pretty good. So I'll have to have the leftover casserole tomorrow night (and probably Thursday, too--there's A LOT of it). I did go RUNNING this evening, the usual trek. Showered after that, and went over and talked to my sister for a few minutes. She's thinking of going to school to become an LPN. Marlins and Cubs are tied at 6 right now. Go Fish!! No, I really don't care, but there's nothing else on TV on Tuesday nights. College football will be back Thursday, thankfully. "And I don't know why you couldn't just stay with me. You couldn't stand to be near me, when my face don't seem to wanna shine, cause it's a little bit dirty. Well, don't just stand there, say nice things to me. 'Cause I've been cheated, I've been wronged. You don't know me. Well I can't change. I won't do anything at all..."
Spin-cyclation
Doing LAUNDRY on this lovely Tuesday. I had a plate lunch from LIBBY'S for lunch--chicken & dressing, squash casserole, and green beans. Good!! Whatever happened to Captain Caveman? Captain Caaaaavemaaahhahaan!! lol I liked that cartoon. My sister was home for lunch, so I stopped by. Then I sat on the porch for a bit, and the white kitty climbed up in my lap. It was so cute. He just sat there for the longest, and I finally had to pick him up and sit him on the porch when I got ready to leave. No, we really haven't named the cats yet. It's just like white cat, gray cat, and other gray cat. lol Sounds like something from a Chevy Chase movie. lol Yellow dog. I noticed three hotties walking out to their cars at this little apartment that is like three houses down. Wow, they must've just moved in. When I got home, the lady next door was all like, "I'm gonna start running with you in the evenings." And I was like, "You can't keep up." lol And she said, "Well if I have to stop, you just circle around and pick me up on your way back thru." I got a hit today from a search for "funny quotes for a stressful day at work." lol Oh man, I could come up with a load of those. If only they had surfed over to KYLE'S blog when he used to include the audio bits. The lady at registration at the hospital was all like, "Well I'm afraid we don't listen to your radio station." They had some kind of staticy, soft-AC station going. I was like, "Well that's OK. You should give it a try though." Then later on she was asking about a song, and I was like, "We got it. We play it." Ah, it's always good to get out and meet the people. That's about it for now. I'm thinking of changing my links up. There are a couple of those blogs over there that I never go to anymore, and I need to add a link to Eric and Kevin, cause I read them sometimes. Everybody's gone bloggin... bloggin USA. lol Just gonna finish laundry today, hopefully. I'm gonna try to go RUNNING. Probably have some left-over casserole for dinner. KYLE e'd me today and said he had some more stuff scripted for the VIPERS video, so I'm gonna try to go over there tomorrow night and read that. I was just noticing one day at work, there is this company that you can do voice work for, and they pay you like $500 per :30 second ad. I wonder if I could do that. Guess it wouldn't hurt to try. "What's the matter girl well don't you think I'm good enough? This old heart's had a whole lotta breakin' down. She's got all these reasons in her head. Well all that time, she knew if I lied. You can bet she will. She's taking her time, til I thought I would die and I can't sit still. Things got turned 'round, don't know where I started from..."
