I'm baaaaaack

So, I'm back-ish.

I've got my computer back and I couldn't be much happier. Well, that's a lie, but having it back completes my life for the moment. Fills in that large gap I seem to have that is only filled by electronics and computing power and gigabytes of space.

I'm fantastic like that.

If I seem like I'm rambling, it's because I am. I just realized that I've spent more time already today in the radio studio than in my bed last night.

But now, I've got someone shadowing me so he's operating the board, all I have have to do is talk. That's nice.




Ok...but you really need to watch this. Especially...you, courtney. Watch it now.

Why the sudden break?

What I watched tonight
  • The Office Season 1 DVD, all of the commentaries...and I mean all of the commentaries




  • My computer broke. Well...I broke my computer. I managed to spill Hot Tea all over it, so it's making sounds and doesn't do anything past making a low whirring sound. So I have to send it into Apple to have them fix it. This might take a little while, so I won't be updating as much as I have been.

    The spontaneity of my posts will be lost. I usually write whenever I get bored or I need to vent or come across something hilarious, so unless I'm sitting in a computer lab and that happens...this will be a lot less spontaneous.

    I also have some weird music on my iPod that I wouldn't normally have on there, but for some reason I'm crazy. So now, I'm stuck with what's on there until I get my computer back. Which means I can't really listen to my podcasts. I'm going to miss them...ahhhh babies come back.

    In other news...
    Steels and I (plus Pat) went to Jared Campbell's last show at his old church in Endicott. It was awesome. We taped it for our Video Workshop project, and I think it went pretty well. I was the backstage camera, and Steeley did the stationary performance camera. It was really dark in some of the backstage areas. I had to get creative about finding my angles. There were a few spots where he was standing that I could get him against one of the screens on the stage, so he was backlit in blue. I hope it translates well on the tape, because it looked pretty cool from where I was standing.

    We're meeting up with Jared, and I think Meridee too sometime later this week. No word yet when, but shouldn't be a problem.

    I should see if we can edit any of the footage yet.

    Classes started today...YAY for school. Advanced Web and Acting should be the only really difficult classes I'm taking. Well...besides Workshop.

    But off to Park!

    Happy Birthday Joe.

    What I watched tonight
  • SuperTroopers
  • The Office
  • Scrubs Re-runs
  • Scrubs Primetime
  • 30 Rock
  • I Love NY



    So it's my friend's birthday today, and I am a horrible person and I started getting jealous of all the Happy Birthdays he had on his facebook wall. And then...I went and counted the ones that I had had on my birthday, and I damn well near came close. Look at that.

    I thought I was this horrible person, but maybe not so much. Kick youself out of it, girl. Kick, kick. Done. Out...no more negativity. This will be a positive final semester of fun.

    the end.

    now I know for real, I'm growing up

    Now I know I'm growing up.

    Hanson has a Greatest Hits/20th Century Masters Album.

    Click on the title of this post for the link to Amazon.

    oh man...special

    True Texans know this...

    You are a true Texan if: I will bold the ones that I relate to

    1. You can properly pronounce Corsicana, Palestine, Decatur, Wichita Falls, San Antonio, Burnet, Boerne, Nacogdoches, Mexia, Waco, Amarillo, and Waxahachie.

    2. A tornado warning siren is your signal to go out in the yard and look for a funnel.

    3. You've ever had to switch from "heat" to "A/C" in the same day.

    4. You know that the true value of a parking space is not determined by the distance to the door, but by the availability of shade.

    5. Stores don't have bags, they have sacks.

    6. You have seen people wear overalls at funerals.

    7. You measure distance in minutes.

    8. Little Smokies are something you serve only for special occasions.

    9. You go to the lake because you think it is like going to the ocean.

    10. You listen to the weather forecast before picking out an outfit.

    11. You know cowpies are not made of beef.

    12. Someone you know has used a football schedule to plan their wedding date. (maybe not a wedding date, but other things, yes)

    13. You have known someone who has had a belt buckle bigger than your fist.

    14. You aren't surprised to find movie rental, ammunition, and bait all in the same store. (not anymore)

    15. Your "place at the lake" has wheels under it.

    16. A Mercedes Benz is not a status symbol; a Ford F350 4x4 is. (or a Mustang)

    17. You know everything goes better with Ranch dressin'. (of course it does)

    18. You learned how to shoot a gun before you learned how to multiply.

    19. You actually understand this and you are "fixin' to" send it to your friends.

    20. Finally, you are 100% Texan if you have ever heard this
    conversation:
    "You wanna coke?"
    "Yeah."
    "What kind?"
    "Dr. Pepper"

    (that conversation happens more often than you'd think)
