I’m ‘Sirius’…Very Sirius.
It’s been a few days since I’ve personally written an actual post…so I’m about due. This past weekend was extremely boring – so I decided to head downtown and take a look at my options for satellite radio. I browsed the selection at Best Buy…and what do you know! I walked out with a whole system, lol. I bought the Sirius Starmate 5 receiver and the stereo docking station to go along with it. I’ll wait until the weather warms up to get the vehicle kit installed – then I can take the receiver to and from my room and listen to it in both places if I want. So far so good. It craps out a little bit when it starts to snow, but it’s just a matter of fine tuning the placement of the antenna to get it up and going again. It’s well worth it, trust me!
We’re on day #2 of shitty weather. I mean, snow typically doesn’t bother me, but it’s snow, ice and slush all mixed and makes it pretty dangerous to walk/drive on.
Oh, I started a new lyric finally a few days ago. I got the chorus/hook/title done….and now I’m procrastinating again. It’s called ‘Contradiction’. We’ll see how it turns out. I’m impressed by my chorus so far…
My Ears are Watering
25 Random Things
2.) I really don’t care for North Dakota…
3.) I think Anna Kournikova is by far the hottest girl in the ENTIRE world. Yep – that’s just the way it is!
4.) I’m a grammar fanatic. If I see a word not spelled correctly, I have to correct it. Friends, family, co-workers – no one escapes my wrath. “Spelt” is not a word – “Spell” it correctly…PLEASE! And, If I spell a word wrong, I’ll spend a LONG time trying to find the correct way…and then I’ll go back to it.
5.) I’m NOT Facebook literate.
6.) Not many people know that I have modeled clothes in the past. It’s all about the jeans. And, my ass looks damn good in Jeans.
7.) I can’t get enough of loud music with heavy bass…it’s like it turns me on or something. I don’t know, don’t ask!
8.) Flashing lights amaze me. To this day I have to stop and watch police cars and fire trucks race by me with their lights on. And the best part – I get to race around with flashing lights at my job! How cool is that? Ya think it could have anything to do with me wanting to be a cop…?
9.) A question was asked of me earlier…”Would you rather have great sex once in a while, or okay sex all the time…” – My answer? Okay sex all the time…
10.) I’m an amazing listener.
11.) If you ask me why Aerosmith is the best band in the world, I’ll ask you why you shit in a toilet. Because it’s the obvious choice!
12.) Twix candybars rock my socks.
13.) I end up doing a lot of things that I’ve sworn in the past I’d never do. Hence, getting a tattoo…not watching animated sitcoms…(who’d have thought my favorite show these days would be Family Guy?)
14.) The word Democrat makes me wanna throw up on Obama’s shoes. I like him as a person, but politics is not for him.
15.) I don’t seem like it on the outside, but I’m a kid at heart. I still eat cookie crisp and other little kid-type foods. Remember lunchables? Damn right, baby!
16.) If I ask a yes or no question, it really pisses me off to no extent when I hear “I don’t know” as an answer. If I ask what color the sky is, and you honestly don’t know…take a wild guess and say aqua green for all I care…just don’t say “I don’t know”!
17.) I’m a history buff…I love learning about anything from about the Great Depression on to present day.
18.) My ego inflates whenever I get hyper. The better of a mood I’m in, the more I think I’m better than you are at that moment. And, for some reason, the best time to witness this is about 10pm at night until midnight or so…and I couldn’t tell ya why!
19.) Save 15% or more by switching to Geico? NO! I switched to Progressive and saved a shitload more than that!
20.) I love it when commercials try to portray something as an everyday situation when it’s really something stupidly off-the-wall. Example: This guy and girl were eating at a restaurant, and he has sensitive teeth – so after he bites into his steak, his tooth starts to hurt. Well, before ya know it, his girlfriend whips out a bottle of Sensodyne from her purse and says “Well, you need Sensodyne! The only toothpaste recommended by 8 out of 10 dentists nationwide!” WTF? If my girlfriend ever did that to me, I’d be a bit worried…
21.) I LOVE my Gmail. If you don’t have Gmail, switch – It’ll be the best move of the year.
22.) I’m proud to say that I’ve had my cell phone number going on 6 years now! I’ve NEVER changed it – unlike some people who change it every damn month it seems like…it makes me mad when I call a number thinking it still belongs to a friend and then some woman named Bertha or Gertrude answers instead.
23.) I’m a sucker for cowboy hats. A girl wearing a cowboy hat is the biggest turn-on EVER. I’m melting just thinking about it…mm mm mmmm
24.) Another thing people don’t know is that I write a lot of song lyrics. I have 26 in my collection at the moment…Well, some people know…but not many.
25.) You can fill-in #25 for me…Think of something good about me.
Another Obama Mistake
So, apparently Obama is signing a bill that is delaying the digital TV transition until later on this year – June to be exact. Is this really all that necessary? I mean, the word has been out about this now for over 3 years, and they are JUST NOW delaying it by about 4 months? Is this really going to have a MAJOR impact on our country? I highly doubt it. Plus, with all the effort in this country to get fat ass kids (and adults too) away from the TV and actually do something healthy, we’re delaying the digital swtch so the government can have time to print more converter box coupons? WHY? I just don’t get it. Typical fucking democrats…always trying to give people handouts for no good reason at all. Plus, why would we willingly hand out rebate coupons, and discount tickets for the converter box during this time of economic slowdown? I mean, isn’t the idea to have the American people spend MORE money to inject some life into this economy? Why are we handing out rebate coupons which will in turn lower the total amount profited due to the switch? This makes no sense at all.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – The majority of people who become democrats are the ones who realize they can get more by doing less. They are living examples of those who will accept anything the government has to offer for free, but don’t even try to give back, or work for what they are given. I don’t understand how they can do this without feeling the slightest bit guilty. It’s beyond me I guess.
And, one more note about the digital TV switch…I don’t feel a bit bad for people who still haven’t purchased the converter box. If they haven’t already, then it might do them some good to have a dead TV set for a while. Maybe they’ll actually be forced to move off the couch and lose a few pounds.
Fast Week
This week is going by so fast it seems like! It’s not a bad thing by any means, but I just can’t believe it. I think half of the reason is work though…we just got a member of our shop back from a deployment, and he’s been training me non-stop all day, everyday since he’s gotten back…so it get’s my mind off the time I think and makes the day go by fast.
I have to be to work at 2:45am in the morning, which is about 6 hours from now…and I just got out a few hours ago. I took a 4 hour nap this evening but I might lay down again soon for a couple more hours worth. That’s about all I’ve got!
