Long Time No Talk

I know I haven't posted in a while and I have had tons of stuff I could have written about but other things seem to creep up on me or I guess some would say draw more attention then posting.

Well at the begining of the month I went to see RAW in Topeka, and it was good. Met a Charlie Haas and Viscera which is cool. And by fluke when waiting to get inside the Sandman was taking a smoke right by the doors where we come in. So I got to meet him too which was really cool. The other thing that was cool was I actually got to see Mickie James wrestle, I'm a big fan of her's more so than much of anyone else that's on the roster. I was thinking I wasn't going to get to see her wrestle since the WWE has basically crapped on anything to do with women actually wrestling.

Other than that I've been working a lot of events. Which means I'm almost close to having the credit cars paid off. Woohoo. :)

Message Boards

Every since I first got online I've often visted and posted on message boards. However, the fun always seemed to be taken out of them by one or two people who would always nit pick and have to argue and stir up trouble over something. Lately on one of the message boards I frequent this one poster has been going off like there was no tomorrow. Acting as if he is superior to the rest of the posters on the board.

For example, this is a wrestling message board so if there are words you don't understand that's why, he calls people on marks and then says I don't mean that to be derrogatory, but essential it is. Especially when you have to point out that you don't mean it to be mean. Also he goes and calls everyone on the board fucking tools. What is the point in calling people names. You can disagree and make your points for things all you one but by calling people names, especially when using profanity you are essential making your point very mute. If you can't come up with something other than name calling and using profanity then go back to school and learn.

Also, and I know a majority of the people reading this will have no clue what I'm talking about, if you are going to say ROH is the superior to any other wrestling organization is ok to have that opinion. However, to say that if you don't watch ROH or are a fan of ROH you aren't a real wrestling fan is a bunch of hooey. ROH is a wrestling organization based in the East Coast so essentially you are saying that if you don't live on the EAST you aren't a wrestling fan. Screw that.

Sorry I just had to get this off of my mind because it was pissing me off, however I refuse to respond to this jerk off boy. Because I know how people work and people who like to provoke people do it for one reason and that's to get the attention their mommys and daddys and everyone else don't give them. So I find it better not to respond or basically do anything to give them that pleasure.

In fact their use to be someone on that same message board I hated like there was no tomorrow because of the way some of his post were, where they came off arrogant and talked don't to the vast majority of people. I agreed with one of his points later on but did point out that the way he did it wasn't the best and ever since I haven't had an issue with him at all really.

Anyhow that's all I have to say, and I know I know it's been a while since I've posted on here but I've had a lot of things going on. But rest assure I'll be posting another again soon.

Contemplating

I know I can never come up with really great titles for my post. Anyhow moving on I am contemplating going on a Wrestling Road Trip. But first I'd have to pass it by my mother, yeah I know I'm 25 years old and all but I do still have obligations with the fact my mother pays for a lot of things for me and with helping out with my grandma some thing would need to be rearranged.

I would like to go down to Tennessee and see both the RAW and Smackdown/ECW shows, because one is in Memphis and the other is in Nashville, however I really don't like Smackdown and only to see an hour of ECW would not be worth the ticket price. However, if I went to the Nashville show I could make a stop by and see Jessica, a friend who turned into not being a friend and now being the mature person I am is a friend again plus I wasn't really mad at her just a little miffed at the way things were handle, but the way she acted around me then after what happened made me think she was scared for her life but that's in the past.

Anyhow I really want to go to the RAW show because that's my brand of choice when it comes to wrestling. Also supposedly Trish Stratus is going to be calling it quits when her contract comes up soon, and Memphis is the closest RAW show to here before her contract comes up. So why not go? Money is one of the biggest problems. I mean to drive down there will be about 6 hours so that means at least two fillups of gas at about 30 Dollars each time going there and coming back at least one fillup at 30 so that puts gas at a total of 90 dollars. Don't even ask me about flying that'd probably be ridiculous too. Then if I stayed the night a hotel room is about 34.95 per person and that's talking like the low end of the hotels/motels. I got a lot to think about. Then the tickets range from 40- 20 dollars a ticket and then add on the convience charges and etc so you are spending about 60- 40 dollars a ticket then add parking which I think there is 10 dollars. So the max amount of money I'd be spending would be about 320 give or take.

Plus if I'm in Memphis you know I'm going to want to hit Graceland. Come on now, Elvis Presley was the King of Rock n Roll and me being the music fan that I am couldn't pass up a chance like that to see where he lived and all the hoopla that probably goes on around there because he lived in Memphis. I'm super into pop culture historical sites.

But when I think about it 320 would be probably one of the cheapest Wrestling Outings that I've done. Because I use to go to PPVs on the WWF/WWE's travel packages and those cost a butload but you got tons of opportunities to meet wrestlers which I guess that was a plus because then you were guaranteed that, where as doing it yourself not so much unless you are one of those fans who knows what hotel they stay at in every city and which airlines they fly etc etc.

I know my friends who are reading this and probably a few other people, are like what the hell is wrong with you why would you waste money on this crap. But I'm pretty sure everyone has their own little quirk that they spend obscene amounts of money on whether it be a particular sports or hobby they are really into. So don't give me that hard of time about it. Most of you have known I've liked wrestling since I was like 6 or so when I thought it was real. You don't know how dissapointed I was when I was like 9 and I found out otherwise, but that's another story for another time.

Connecting Thoughts

Well I got so bored I decided to go ahead and use the lovely product Veet Bladeless shaving stuff that comes in the tube instead of the can, and I must it was much easier to use. Anyhow I was going to wait till morning to do that but I had nothing better to do so I decided to do that now. I bet you all just love hearing about that don't you? But hey I'm bored as we speak so I figured since I hadn't posted anything in a while.

I worked Rockfest, but unfortunately I was working the pyro area so I didn't even freaking hear any of the bands. I guess I didn't miss much since most of the crowd left at like 7 pm. Anyhow I did get the best and I think the most awesomest, I know that's not a word but if you could hear me say it you'd think it was freaking hysterical, view of a fireworks display ever. What would it made it even awesomer, hahaha here I go with the made up words again, would have been some music. You can't go wrong with fireworks done to music.

Speaking of Fireworks next week I'm going to head over to Fireworks World and give them my 5 can foods and purchase $50 of fireworks so I can get me my free $50 assortment of fireworks. Yep I know it's insane but I loved the assortment from last year and we had some kickass fireworks and I'm talking sky high suckers. Thank god my Grandma lives on a farm and you can get away with that shit, or I'd be getting tickets or arrested or something.

Speaking of getting tickets or arrested. For some reason right now I have an obsession with the Van Halen, Sammy Hagar days, song "Amsterdam". I think it's probably one of my favorite Van Halen songs. I forgot when this song came out originally. But I have been to Amsterdam, but that was the summer before I went into high school so I was about 13 or 14. So I didn't get the cultural experience that all the "cool" people like to brag about or go on about over there. I just remember we weren't allowed to go to the Hard Rock Cafe there after dark because of the antics that are legal there and not here.

Now speaking of Hard Rock Cafe's I've been to 11 that's including outside of the country. Anytime I know there is a Hard Rock Cafe somewhere I have to go to it because you have to get the rockn' shirts they got. Some places have better shirts than others. I must say all the ones in LA/Orange County area have the best tshirts. They have like badass cars or beach scenes on them. I've been to almost all of the Hard Rock's in California, the only one I haven't been to is the one in San Diego. I'm assuming the have one there, since freaking LA has two one in LA and one at Universal Boardwalk. I will say the Hard Rock in Newport seems to be the quietest and anytime I've gone in there they barely have any customers if at all. Maybe I've just gone in at the wrong time, but when I've gone to the others at weird times there still ahs been as mass of humanity in there.

Now on to masses of humanity I swear while I was working Rockfest I've never seen so many people who should have top on not have a top on. There were guys who really needed to put the shirt back on, I don't care if in our society guys are allowed to take shirts off because there is nothing really to see. But if you have a got please keep it covered the rest of the world doesn't need to see it. Plus by taking your shirt off when it's hot isn't going to make you feel anyless hot. Then these women who really need to be covered were wearing the littles bikinis ever possible and everything was all hanging out and shit. People it's called common curtosity, put clothes on, taking clothes off of your body is not going to make you feel anymore cooler in fact you are more likely to get heat stroke and have a severe sunburn. That's the other thing do most of these people not know what sunblock is. I know things are expensive but in the long run not putting sunblock on is going to cost you a lot more money in medical bills than going out and buying it and actually using it and not just putting it on once but a multiple times through the day. I've never seen so many people looking like lobsters in my life.

I remember in high school there was a song called Everybody is Free to wear Sunscreen. I use to think oh it's just this funny song where the guy is talking over the music but looking back I really should have taken the advice of the song, it probably would have made my life more interesting and more successful than it is. Here are the lyrics, they aren't really lyrics though they are just words spoken over music.

Everybody's Free
(to wear sunscreen)
Mary Schmich
Chicago Tribune

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ’97... wear sunscreen.
If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be IT.

The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience.

I will dispense this advice now.

Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth. Never mind. You will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years you’ll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you can’t grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked.

You are NOT as fat as you imagine.

Don’t worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday.

Do one thing every day that scares you.


Sing.
Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts, don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours.


Floss.
Don’t waste your time on jealousy; sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind. The race is long, and in the end, it’s only with yourself.

Remember compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how.

Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements.


Stretch.
Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still don’t.

Get plenty of calcium.

Be kind to your knees, you’ll miss them when they’re gone.

Maybe you’ll marry, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll have children, maybe you won’t, maybe you’ll divorce at 40, maybe you’ll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary. Whatever you do, don’t congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself, either. Your choices are half chance, so are everybody else’s. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, it’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own.

Dance. Even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room.

Read the directions, even if you don’t follow them.

Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly.

Get to know your parents, you never know when they’ll be gone for good.

Be nice to your siblings; they are your best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future.

Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young.

Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.


Travel.
Accept certain inalienable truths, prices will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you’ll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders.

Respect your elders.

Don’t expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you'll have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out.

Don’t mess too much with your hair, or by the time you're 40, it will look 85.

Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth.

But trust me on the sunscreen.


Speaking of memories of from the past I think I enjoy songs from long ago way more than most any new songs that are out. I don't know why, but even classic country songs lately have seemed real cool to me, and I'm not talking like the 60's but you know early 80's late 70's. Especially that one song I Love the Raining Nights by I think Eddie Rabbit. I need to freaking find a download of that song or as CD with it, because I just think that song is the most rockn'ist country song.

The other day I was thinking if I could choose a song that represented me, basically a theme song, what song would it be. Honestly there are so many songs I can think of but not of them totally 100% fit me. If anyone has any suggestions of songs that you believe most respresent who I am let me know because I'm curious as to what some people think of me, because I'm never sure.

HAHAHA, speaking of theme songs I bought the WWE Wreckless Intent CD. When I first listened to a preview of some of the songs online I thought god these songs are the worst songs ever. Then when I got the CD I listened to the whole thing without skipping anything and it totally rocks. Suprisingly I like Randy Orton's theme "Burn in My Light" By Mercy Drive the best. I hate Randy Orton, but I love this song. I also love the song "Deadly Game" by Theory of a Deadman that song freaking rocks. I crank the volume up on those songs and they sound killer in my car. My current car has six speakers and has awesome bass on it, way better than my old car so I love just driving around in it, but with the freaking gas prices not really doing that.

Finally speaking of Wrestling, ECW is back, but it's not like the true pure ECW it's a WWE version of ECW, which isn't really as quite out there. Or at least based on the premiere last week on Sci Fi it's not. Maybe things will change this week considering how bad everyone said last weeks show was. The thing I loved about ECW was audience participation, the thing I didn't really enjoy was the extremely graphic nature of it, yeah I don't mind blood every now and then but sometimes they really over did it with the blood and graphic violence almost as violent as UFC was in the begining. My opinion is if they want to make ECW successful they need to allow and encourage audience participation, not just chants, but like with the guys going out into the crowd and fans giving them weapons to use or possibly almost getting a 250 pound guy landing on them when they come of the top of a barricade or the ring post or ropes. That is what made ECW great and the fact fans could throw chairs and etc into the ring. That's what people, myself included loved about ECW was the fans were allowed to be part of the show and actually interact with the wrestlers. Unlike in WWE where they have rules and regulations about interacting with the fans. And you have to boo for bad guys and cheer for good guys and if you have a freaking sign that says anything bad about John Cena they take it away, that's the dumbest thing ever. Because if you don't like something you should be allowed to voice it, this is America and we still have our first Amendment rights, right?

On that note I will bid you adieu.

Movies and Music

This post was originally suppose to be typed up two weeks ago but I forgot to do it which is why this is not just a movie post.

Well two weeks ago I went and saw the movie See No Evil featuring the pretty creepy WWE superstar Kane. I liked the movie it had all a horror movie should have, a children's song, Religous themes, and gore. All those things make for a great horror film. But you are probably wondering what do you mean by religious themes? It's very simple in every horror film there has to be some point besides massive victims, the characters have to be judged in some way on their moral standing to some extent. However, I'm also talking about the fact that in most horror films there always is religious symbols like crucifixes, churches, pcitures of jesus or mother mary. Anyhow I enjoyed this movie, maybe not really the storyline so much as the overall package of the gore and the characters.

Only one problem with this movie that I have, the WWE needs to stop showing clips of the movie, because if they keep doing stupid little clip segments of the movie no one is going to go see it because basically what they show you the gists of the movies. So WWE STOP SHOWING SEE NO EVIL CLIPS!!!

I probably would go into more detail about the movie but I didn't right this when I was originally was going to, so now I'll just move along to my other topic music.

This coming Saturday I'm going to be working 15 hours with breaks and such in between for Rockfest. I'm looking forward to it but hopefully the weather won't be too hot and won't rain. I'm praying for a constant breeze all day and maybe mid 70's. Hopefully while I'm working I get a chance to hear, if not see, Trapt. I met these guys on the set of their Headstrong video and they are awesome. They are really great guys and fun to be around.

Well that's all for now. Hopefully my next post won't be too long from now.

5-8-2006

I think today is my mom's birthday, but I'm not sure. Anyhow happy birthday to my om, although I know she doesn't read this. That's a good thing though.

Anyhow I'd also like to give a shoutout to Hiney, cause she actually told me she reads my blog, so finally I know one person who reads my blog. By that I mean I actually really know them. So Hello Hiney.

Then there is another Jennifer I know, oh yeah Hiney is just a nickname for those who don't know the previous person I was referring to, emailed me back and seems she has a lot going on in her life. Sort of made me feel weird, not only is she already married, but now she is moving into a house with 5 acres. And here I am still living at home with my mom and sister. Anyhow I'mr eally happy for her and I hope she doesn't mind me talking about this, but I don't think she reads my blog, but who knows.

Training for Verizon was good, although now I'm going to have to buy a pair of white shoes. Everyone knows how much I dislike wearing white shoes. It's just this thing I have, unless I'm wearing all white or very light light colors it bothers me to wear white shoes. Plus whites shoes always ends looking like crud after wearing them outside. Maybe I'm just weird. Plus I'm not going to wear my exercise shoes for that cause I don't want them getting mess. Maybe I'm just a weirdo.

Other than that not much going on. Been going through all my wrestling tapes and trying to organize them, which is a huge feet cause I have tons of videos, and I'm talking of stuff I taped from TV. I got stuff from all the way back in 92, so that gives you an idea about how many tapes I got to go through and sort out if I want to keep and possible put on to DVDs once I get my freaking DVDVHS DVD recorder hooked up that I got from Christmas.

Jobs and MY Life

I have an interview tomorrow with Crowd Systems for a Part Time Job, I'm excited and hopefully I will get the job. At least with them I can work with my schedule, cause I'll have pretty advance notice of when things come up so even if I have to work the weekends I can have plenty of time to readjust the family schedule. So wish me luck.

Then on to my boring life, because someone on myspace whom I adore dearly asked me what's going on with my life. The thing is I never know what's going on with his life or even if he reads the messages I send him telling him about what's going on in mine. So I I left him a comment saying read your messages and in my message I said to respond back so I know he read it cause he doesn't really respond to my emails or messages.

Anyhow besides the job interview not much is going on. I have about 400 dollars on my Capital One Credit card I need to pay off. Now I'm having to pay for my internet service, so I might end up switching ISPs, but I'll let you know if I do.

MY car got bombed with bird crap all over two weeks ago during the weird weather here, it stirred up the birds and I guess scared them shitless, :). So I didn't want to go through the car wash so I just squeeged it off but that wasn't a good idea cause now my car looks really bad. So I guess I'll have to get that washed soon.

I currently miss not having Pay Per View Service anymore because I need to see my Wrestling and maybe even UFC fights because beating the crap out of people, no matter if it's fake or real, is awesome to watch and gets me pumped up. But don't worry I'm not going to go and throw a typewriter at someone or put someone in some submission hold and make them scream like a little girl like I did when I was 8 years old. I just love the excitement of those big events because when you hear about them after the fact and watch them on tape not as interesting as watching it right when it happens.

I did get the catch the reply on Monday night of the Ultimate Fighter Season 3, I saw some really tough guys I have a couple of ones I like. I love the British guys but maybe that's just because of the way they talk. I also love the guy who one the first fight on there he was awesome, I wish I could remember names at the moment. I have a feeling he will be in the finals. I think Ken Shamrock's team is going to dominate freaking Tito Ortiz, that punk ass bitch, because Shamrock is the man.

Ken Shamrock is another man I adore dearly. I think he's the toughest person I've ever met, I don't care that he lost to Ortiz and his face got all puffed up, he could have still kept going. In July I think this time Ortiz is going down and I think Ortiz will go down at UFC 59 at the Arrowhead Pond.

Speaking of Punk ass Bitches what about Randy Orton? Acting like he's above everyone and calling the females obscene names. He needs to get a life, because I bet there are some of those females backstage that could kick his sorry ass all the way back to St. Louis. That arrogant freaking punk ass son of bitch needs to go down. Apparently at the Smackdown Taping Kurt Angle kept putting the ankle lock on him over and over and broke his ankle. Who knows if that is storyline or if Kurt actually really broke his ankle. Time will tell, but if it's true that's what you get for being an ass.

Then onto another faucet of my life, Music. The big summer concert season is ahead and I'm probably not going to be going to any concerts, unless I get the job maybe. There only a couple of artist I really ever want to see and that's No Doubt (not happening anytime soon), Bon Jovi (they don't really come around here)Trapt, and of course Better Than Ezra. Those are just the bands I really enjoy and I love seeing live. I've seen all of them in concert at least once if not more times, except for Trapt I only went to a music video shoot but that's close to a concert. They all are really entertaining energetic and fun to watch and for the most part you get your money's worth.

However, I need some new music to listen to because I'm running dry and tired of what I have. I mean I love the bands I listen to all the time but I need some fresh that I haven't listened to have a change of pace every now and then if you have any recomendations or mp3s you wish to send me let me know, because I need some new stuff or at least new to me.

Cash and Wrestling Fever

Well I officially won the bet on the NCAA brackets between my sister and myself. I called it after Duke, the team she picked to win it all, lost. She being determined to beat my once again waited till the game last night. None of those games helped her and she officially called it. So I won me 20 bucks. Now all I got to do is do well with the Emmy picks and I'll be in the money for a little while.

Now onto wrestling. Why might you say do I have wrestling fever? I really don't know but for some reason I'm really excited about it right now. The only match where the storyline is interesting and was built up like wrestling matches should be is the women's title match between Trish Stratus and Mickie James. It should be an intersting match, too bad they don't do PPVs on C-Band dishes, DAMN YOU VINCE MCMAHON.

I would say I'm exciting for HBK's match but quite honestly I really am not. Maybe if he was facing Shane McMahon it might be up there, but Vince McMahon isn't going to be that exciting and can't compare to his match last year with Kurt Angle. Plus I feel that storyline is rather lame. I'm thinking the Daytime Soap writers and the WWE writers need to switch places for a while maybe that would make both of the shows more interesting. Just a thought.

Anyhow back to the women's match, usually most of the time I'm disinterested in them because a vast majority of the time the females are there for T& A and nothing more but Trish and Mickie James can really go out there and work. It is going to be interesting to see how Ashley Massaro, freak I hope I spelled that last name right, comes into play during this match. What would be funny is if she would turn on Trish also, but then they'd have way too many heel women wrestlers. If they really want to make the women's division more legit and not the same old matches all the time they need to bring in maybe 3 more gals.

Another thing the WWE needs to do is bring on some real tag teams, not just two guys you decide to mush together but serious tag teams that aren't singles wrestlers. Whatever happened to the days of teams like the British Bulldogs, The Hart Foundation, The Rougeo Brothers, Demolition, Legion of Doom, Steiner Brothers, Rock N Roll Express,and The Rockers. Granted most of those tag teams split up and went into singles action but still they were tag teams for quite a while before they split up. They made a name for themselves as a team and became very successful. Why can't the WWE seem to do that anymore?

Rockn' Into The Night

I'm finally updating for once. Last night I went to a Music Listening Discussion group for MaxFM. It was rather fun I never knew that you could listen to 637 all within a span of about 2 hours. Granted it was just little clips of the songs. We got free Pizza and soda, but I just sticked with the water, and 50 bucks for our time. So if you are in the Kansas City area and you like rock music go over to their site and fill out the form and you can get to do this too, they are looking for about 44 more people before they cut off doing this so get to doing it now.

By the time we finished it was 9 pm and on my way home driving on Metcalf to get to 435 I saw a shooting star. I mean I've seen Meteorite showers and comets and all but never a real shooting star. It was an awesome site to see especially when I had just flipped on my Trapt CD.

Speaking of which I think I'm getting closer to finding that video I was being filmed in during Trapt's music video shoot of Headstrong. Some guy on myspace a while back message me about checking out some videos he took of some of Trapt's concert. So of course I asked the guy if he was the one who was filming at the video shoot, but he said no but the guy who did is a friend of his named Dom and he's on his buddy list now I have to go through the buddy list and find him cause I really want to see the video footage he shot of all the behind the scenes stuff during the video shoot including me talking to band which I hope he didn't like edit out. Cause we had a really good conversation.

Nothing Better To Do

Recently I've gotten severely bored and have done random stuff. Like get on our bikes and ride them up and down right in front of the house. MY moutain bike's front break squeaks and on my dad's bike my jeans kept getting caught in the chain. But it was fun none the least. It was also good to know that saying about once you ride a bike you never forget really holds true. I hadn't ridden a real bike since like middle school, so it was good to know I can still do that. Although riding it up the driveway just was not happening.

I also watched some old Wrestlemanias. My mom bought me the first part of the Wrestlemania Trilogy, which she really didn't need to since I have them all, but hey it's DVDs. Some things were edited like music being blasted over what was originally playing. I think that's dumb cause the ones that were didn't sound like ones that would have a copyright. Oh well, it was just good to see old school wrestling, the wrestling I really enjoyed. Very simple storylines that were all driven by sex, or other adult themes. Not that I mind that but I think it's come to the point where it's gone a bit overboard. I mean if you already seen it once why do you need to see it a bizillion times again.

Anyhow, anyone know any good relaxing music? I'm in the need of some good relaxing music to go to sleep to. The radio station just aren't doing it for me anymore. They always end up throwing some song in about 2 am in the morning like Living La Vida Loca are something really peppy like that causing me to toss and turn all night. So if you know of any good music to kick back and relax to, and is good to sleep to let me know I'd greatly appreciate it.

Olympics Have Lost that Feeling

When I was much younger the Olympics always seemed like a big deal, but not so much anymore. Is it because the sports aren't interesting? No. Is it because the US seems to be one of the major leaders as far as medals go? No. IS it because it they show little coverage or taped coverage of most events? YES. In this day in age you can no longer do the taped event you must show it live. Yes, I know they are like 8 more hours ahead of us in Torino, but you can still show things live. Who cares about NBC Daytime programing I sure don't, and obviously they Daytime EMMYS don't either really.

I don't get why they don't show any Olympic coverage during the freaking day. It would make sense and maybe their ratings would go up. It's more exciting to watch things live. Plus in this day in age people are going to find out the results before you show them because of the internet. So just show them freaking live. I know NBC has the resources to do it. They have cable networks too. To me the Olympics on NBC is a joke, because they barely show anything on their channel, it's mainly on the cable channels.

I know there are some sports that seem dumb or pointless to many Americans nd you can show those on tape, but sports people are interested in you need to show live or people aren't going to tune in because if people already knows the results it's not as exciting or interesting to watch. The Olympics are suppose to be about the thrill, excitement, and the stories that come from the atheletes. I feel those stories can't drag viewers into watching because they no longer feel the same pain or excitement when someone from the US wins or loses.

I remember when I was little the Olympics were highly anticipated and always pushed everything aside. Now they just seem to be an after thought, in the background with little or no care.

What A Day

Today was fully loaded for me compared to my typical days. Did three workouts (actually just two so far but I'm going to be doing my stretch routine when I'm done with this), 1 and half hour training conference call for my job as a Talent Scout (That was very informative and educational), and then finally had to move all the trash in the garage to trash bags move the cardboard all together in an area and move the non working old crappy wet vac out of the way so I could pull my car in.

Yep you did hear that right Talent Scout. I'm not really going to talk too much about hat unless you are interested in becoming a model or actor then contact me in private through IM or email. But I'll see how this goes, I need to get some money so I can order the business cards though.

I read or maybe I read wrong that a certain actress seems to be getting married, or maybe she isn't and it's just some inside joke. I found that interesting, and a bit scary cause if fans of this actress knew and knew who the guy is, which I'm not quite sure of but unfortunately I think I know who it is, hey'd go crazy and probably mob the guy and about 2/3 of them would probably be heartbroken. Me I'm not so sure cause if its' true and it's to who I think it is god help us all. But I guess people who seem to be very superficial deserve each other. Although I think a guy asking a girl how he looks and if he's used enough hair products and other things dealing with making sure his appearance look better than any other guy in the world.

Enough about that though since I don't know if that's true or a joke. Now I'll head off and do my 30 minute Stretch routine and have my finally meal of the day.

Horror Films, Gotta Love Em'

Yep I actually went to a movie today, I went and saw Hostel. I knew it was suppose to be a horror flick but I guess I just wasn't expecting that much gruesomeness, but go figure it's a Torentino film.

It's not the most gruesome movie I had seen but jeez it was pretty gory. Also I wasn't expecting to see as many tits, cause yeah horror movies you usually see maybe two or three but I swear there were at least 10 people's tits you saw in this movie. It was like TITs R Us at the begining of the movie. That went away and we go to the actual horror.

I'm not a movie critic and I don't write reviews on movies either, cause frankly I suck at it. Anyhow this movie wasn't the best horror but it wasn't the worst. It wasn't cheesy but there needed to be some hidden reason to the manslaughter in this that somehow connected back to the main characters and I just didn't get the connection between the reasoning for the manslaughter and what the main characters really had to do with it. Maybe I'm just dumb or something.

I did laugh a lot during this movie though, which maybe wasn't the purpose since everyone else is the theater neither laughed let alone gasped. I guess manslaughter and mayhem just causes to me laugh, especially when a guy purposely drives right into people and then drives right over them. Also when a guy cuts a girls eye out because she is freaking out about her eye no longer being in the socket. Or when someone gets knocked down and starts sawing their own leg and then gets shot in the head. That's just pure laughterfilled moments for me.

Now you all probably think I'm sick in the head, but this is a movie remember if people do remember that. Movies are suppose to take you away from reality and put you in a new world to entertain you. Everyone takes things too seriously these days and nit picks at everything. People need to get over it.

I enjoyed the movie, I probably enjoyed it even more since I didn't have to pay for it cause I had a free pass, and that's all that really mattered. Now if you aren't a horror movie fan or you don't like gore don't see this movie. Cause they do show some very graphic things like cutting off peoples fingers with a scapul, putting holes in a person with a power drill, and cutting people's arms and wrists.

Anyhow during the previews I saw some good previews that got me interested in them. One was for Hard Candy, it was more of a thriller film I think. It's about this older guy meeting up with this younger girl from online and then from their I don't exactly know where it goes, but it looks interesting and sort of topical in today's socitey. I also so the See No Evil, the movie with the wrestler Kane in it. They were singing childrens songs in the background and you know when they do that, that means it's going to be a good one, hahaha. Then the preview for that movie A Stranger Calls or something like that came on I was like I saw this ad on TV not long ago. It seems interesting but it looks like you are only seeing that girl the whole movie and since I don't think I've seen that actress of heard of it, I think it would be hard to watch a 2 hour movie with her in it.

Anyhow if I do see another movie in the near future it will probably be Last Holiday. Comedys are always good and Queen Latifah is hysterical, I remembering going to see Taxi and I just thought she was a riot.

Realization

tonight I found out some things that were a bit suprising, and I shouldn't have not expected, but still they hurt a bit. But then again why should I be hurt?

I don't know, but I've come to the realization while I'm stuck in my own little world, everyone else I know is out in the "real" world. So I feel like once again i'm left behind.

Everyone says to me what you are doing with helping take care of your grandma is a very noble, and a good thing. These are also people who I know if they were in my situation, or had something similar happen to them, they would not help take care of their grandparents. I hate to point out these things but I know they are true, and I'd rather people just be honest with me. Yes the truth may hurt, but not hearing it and finding it on your own is much worse.

You are probably asking what did I find out today, that has put me into this mood? Well I'm not saying cause I'm sure some of you can figure it out.

I'm just really feeling like I've done so much to get a higher education and I really don't have anything to show for it except a peice of paper that is nicely put into a cover in between to nicely covered peices of cardboard. Basically now all I got to show for anything is doing a nursing home type of job for no pay. That one damn roommate got her wish, sort of, ecept for she said she hoped I became homeless and had nothing at all. Which I'm pretty close to that except I do have a home, just not mind.

The Things You Find When You Are Bored

Well tonight I was extremely bored because there was no one online to Instant Message with. So I was like on myspace figuring maybe someone I knew would get on there, and that didn't happen. So I decided to go searching for people I hadn't heard from or seen in ages.

I came across my first friend I ever had ever Adam, whom use to live across the street from me till they moved to Wisconsin. So I decided to leave him a message and request to be added as a friend. We will see what happens there. Last time I wrote him a letter was like back in High school or when I was going to community college and one time I wrote him again and never heard back so I figured he'd moved again.

Other times when I've been this bored I've found interesting real pictures of celebrities, or should I say semi celebrities. But no such luck today.

If you wanted to dish out about 35 bucks you can get some celebrities addresses past and present. Don't worry I would never do that, only reason why I look up is because it's not to hard to find that information on anyone regardless if they are famous or not, if you are willing to pay you shall find.

I did look around the job websites, but it appears I'm not qualified for any of the jobs they have listed.

Woohoo ME!!!

Well I did it I made my own Razzmatazz. How freaking cool is that. Now I will no longer be longing for my Jamba Juice fix, I can make my own freaking one all by myself. Who would have ever thought.

All I did was look at there site and got the ingredients and guessed a bit on the amounts. Although I had to get a cranberry/rasberry juice. But my conncoction taste just the same except it isn't as dark it's a bit lighter in color. But I'm so happy.

My mom finally gave in and got me a blender, and now I'll be in seventh heaven with this blender. Now I got to figure out how to make the Bannana Berry and I'll be set for life, since their are no Jamba Juices in Kansas City, Missouri or even Kansas City, Kansas and I think they really should have some out here.

The other good thing about me being able to make my own now is I won't be driving on the road and then after drinking one be in parking lot like traffic and really having to go. Because that happened to me out in California like a bizillion times, and I'd be sitting their in the car making up songs like I got to pee on the 405. It will be a number on hit one day I'm telling you. HAHAHAHAHA. But it's never fun to be in that crazy traffic when you gotta go gotta go gotta go right now.

Anyhow I was so excited about this new development in my life I just had to share it with the world. But next time I probably should leave the spout on the blender instead of putting the stopper cause I had a bit of an accident. But I cleaned it up. But let's all have a big happy dance for my new found happiness, my blender.

Happy New Year

Happy New Year Everyone!!!

I decided to post because I wanted it to be put on the record this year I'm really going to clean out my room, get rid of some stuff and try to really change up my life as far as cleanliness (sp)and organization goes.

Also I'm going to start letting go of things, cause I have too much stuff. It will be hard to part with some things, but I'm going to start off with small attachments and build on that till I'm too the point where I have enough stuff I can manage and aren't overwhelmed with.

I'm also going to stop buying things. I need to pay off my credit card bills, and once that is done and I hopefully have a job, I can start to buy things again, cause I kind of need to get my vitamins and supplements and some other nutrional items to help me with my workout routine.

I conquered dreading to workout all the time last year so this year I'm determined to work on my organization and cleaning and when I say I'm going to do something I'm going to do it. Cause Remember I did make it out to California I just didn't end up moving their like I said I would do one day, but hey you never know I could still end up doing that.
