VACAY!

Last night I worked on invoices, balanced my checkbook, did some laundry, cleaned up, and watched TV.

I was watching Gossip Girl in my bedroom because the TiVo in the living room was recording two shows already. I’m not sure if I can watch a third show while it is recording two other ones, and I didn’t want to risk it rebooting, so I just watched TV in my bedroom.

The TV in my bedroom was not hooked to cable, it was connected to an HD antenna and switcher box so I can watch NBC. I say “was” because we had a little fight with the TV last night.

I was watching GG and it was getting so good because Blair and Serena were having it out and being all catty (if there was some slapping it would have been PERFECT!) and then the signal kept going in an out! OMG I was screaming at the TV. I couldn’t believe I was missing the best parts.

So in a panic I disconnected all the cables from the back of the TV and antenna, and then re-connected it to the cable outlet on the wall. I couldn’t risk missing any more GG. Luckily I still got some pretty good scenes… it was touch a go for a while there. I’m sure my neighbors thought I was killing someone in my apartment.

Why can’t that stuff ever happen during the commercials? Last week I was watching my recorded episode of Ellen with Christina Applegate and right in the middle of her interview they break into a news report from that JACKASS Bush talking about the stock market. REALLY? REALLY?

Do they really thinking those of us watching “High Brow” entertainment like Ellen care what he has to say about the financial crisis? I would guess the MAJORITY of Ellen fans despise the man, we certainly don’t want him interrupting HER show. I can see interrupting say another news program or shows on KLRU (the thinking people’s channel) but Ellen? COME ON!

This was a serious Ellen episode. We were learning about Christina’s boob cancer. Cancer is way more serious that anthing Bush has to say, or attempt to say, cuz you know he can’t speak.

Talk about interrupting for the wrong market. What next? Are they going to interrupt Saturday morning cartoons with a prayer service, cuz I can tell you those kids will be about as happy as I was. OOOH I was livid. I had already missed Christina on the Oprah show (that was days before I bought the TiVo) and now on Ellen too!

Don’t mess with me and my TV! Jennifer called me Sunday night at 8:02pm. I was like, FOR REAL? Are you seriously calling me during a new episode of Desperate Housewives? No ma’am. Should have called me during Extreme Home Makeover. I can watch that on mute. All I care about is seeing the finished house anyway. I felt a little bad about answering the phone and “yelling” at her, but it soon passed when the drama started.

Ok, so my good news is that my job gave me Friday off for my birthday and I’m going on a little VACAY! I’m going to fly into Gulf Port, MS, Thursday night and go to Hattiesburg for the night and stay with Kristi at her house. Friday we’re going to leave in the afternoon to drive to Destin, FL, to stay at her boyfriend’s condo, then I’m flying back out of Gulfport on Sunday.

Anyway, so I’m going on a VACAY this weekend and I’m super duper excited! I need some time off. I’m starting to get extra crazy lately. I’ve been sending text messages on my cell phone and then putting the phone up to my ear waiting for replies. I keep picking up my iPod to make phone calls, and it’s not even an iPod touch. I also keep misjudging doorways and running into the door frames. I keep trying to use the remote for my truck door locks to open my home door. I’m losing my mind. Sometimes at my last job I would try to put my debit card in the dollar slot on the vending machines. DUMB.

We had a little birthday celebration at the Trailer Park and Eatery across the street today. Fun times! I had a big unhealthy nasty delicious bacon cheeseburger and some awesome fries. I had promised myself I would eat better today because I really screwed up yesterday, but then I forgot we were going to the Trailer Park today. They don’t have healthy food. Like you even have to ask, healthy food and trailer park just don’t go together.

Yesterday I had Jack in the Box for lunch, then cheese raviolis for dinner. They were organic, so I get some points for that. I had a blow pop after dinner. I didn’t enjoy it. It was grape and I hate grape. I just wanted the gum. I like chewing gum after meals. It’s more fun than flossing. Not that I don’t floss! I do! I floss every morning and every night.

I’m going to have to eat a salad tonight. That’ll be my punishment.
