MadTV - Whitney Screws Up The Classics

This has LMAO! Written all over it! Thanks to April for sharing.

Shirtless Sundays

So I spent one Sunday morning looking for something to wear to work.  The khakis were easy to find.  The socks (bough a new pack) were even easier to grab a hold (BTW nothing beats that "new sock" feel).   The shirts... That's where the problem lay.  You see, I had some shirts I kept meaning to wash, and those few shirts turned into nearly all my shirts.   It didn't help that I didn't put them in the laundry basket, but peppered them about my place.  Not one of my finer moments.

I found a couple of suspect clean shirts on the floor, and there was no way I could wear those.  They smelled like floor, and who wants that?  Floor smell is barely tolerable by the house owner and no one else, unless you're Strawberry Shortcake.  I'd watch out for her homemade jams, by the way. 
   
Of course then, it dawned on me that I should have washed on Saturday, when I had the free time to do so.   So I gather ALL my shirts.  Not just the dirty ones, but the ones I know that are marginally clean.  By marginal, I mean I can't tell if they're dirty, BUT someone else might see or smell it better than I do.  I don't go places to offend people, or at least that's what I tell myself.   Most of all, I can't  have my co-workers think I live in a garbage can like Oscar the Grouch. I'd be mortified.

So I gather all the dirty clothes, old socks, shirts, underpants, and t-shirts, and take them to the laundry.  The change machine should have came with a warning.  It spits coins at you.  Was not prepared for the assault of quarters that came at me.  Coins were on the floor, in the little pocket, and I'm surprised none went for my eyes. 

I wash, I wait.  The smart thing I did manage was to bring my iPod with me.  Of course I brought some paper, but forgot the pen.  Talk about useless.   I left the fabric softer home.  I needed two washing machines, and one HUGE dryer to get it all done.  Bought two sheets of fabric softner for $1.00.  Not bad.  

Deux

My questions for myself tonight:

1. What do I want to do with my life?
2. What am I doing to achieve my goals?

Late night and I have much to get done.

No sleep for me! Revisions are in order. Gotta love a cold night and a plan.

Not sure of what to wear tomorrow. Will worry about it when the time comes.

I am waiting in a steak I wish to devour now! I live a well-done Ribeye. T-bone seems like a waste.

It was so warm today. Now its cold as can be. Brrrrrr!

Also feel a need to make dinner. I want ribs, collards, rice and some baked macaroni. Can I do this all?

I have two papers that need revising. I hope that I get them done.

I feel I can manage my work. I need to clear my mind, which is filled with so much doubts. I will succeed at my dream.

I thought about writing more which I should have done a while ago. I'm so tired of waiting for a good inspiration. What shall I do?

The E-Book, The E-Reader

I've hear some pros and cons on this, and I fall on the pro side of this.  For one, as a student, I find that several books I need from the catalog have been e-books.  I've read them online, and I wasn't bothered by them.  They had info I needed.

Likewise they do not, in my heart replace any hard copy book I've purchased. For me, sometimes I have to lug some heavy books around to get some readings and discoveries completed.  

Now I image having an e-reader might make life a little less complicated.  Not that I would abandon my hard copies, BUT it might be nice to have several books in the palm of my hand and not have to lug books around.!  

Furthermore think of the space I could save in my home with an e-reader. 

Again, I love books, will read them, love having pages to turn and bookmark.  I'm not saying no to books.  In fact I am proud of the books I purchased for my Cinema Studies classes.   They are truly a treasure (one of them is offered as an e-book-what an intriguing prospect).  I am saying yes to trying the e-reader (as pricy as they are) and loving the chance to use a new medium for reading.

Now for the big $259.00 question: The Nook or Kindle as an e-reader.      

The snow is gone! I feared I would be prisoner in my own home. Was also afraid of the cold. Had breakfast (French Toast) which was good!

Looked outside and saw snow and ice on my car. I will not leave my home unless it melts.

Saw Dante's Inferno game. It looks scary and exciting. I wonder how the game plays. It reminds me of God of War.

Its rainy and cold. Worst combo ever. Its a good night to chill and be thankful for love and support. Say an extra prayer for all the blessings.

Outside so cold. Not feeling the winter at all. Gotta go through it though. Wish I wore thermals tonight. It really makes me uncomfortable.

Wonders after viewing some fantasy images if he dint make his story too tame. I really need to get this story past my pedestrian way of thinking.

Goals 2010

Well I'm looking at my goals to see where I am these days with them.  I have plenty written down and I have some things I'm simply accessing their status to see how far I've come.  Well Graduate school reaches it peach with less than four months left of it.  Am I nervous.  Oh, Yeah I am.  Can't seem to get my mind clear and complete a thing.  

I feel rushed, emotional, and annoyed.  I don't see the finish line, BUT I do see the mess that is my life.   Work seems to turn chaotic and classes seem out of grasp.  I'm praying for peach in my head, and that it extends to my physical world.
