I am a member of a forum for a comedy site. One of our subforums is for general talk. It could be about anything, like the 30 year old man who used pancake make up to dress like a 12 year old boy AND ENROLL IN SCHOOL in Phoenix. One such hot topic is hurricane Ike and the media reaction. So far, here is my favorite:
“CBS reporter standing in heavy rain coat at the beachfront, 50 yards behind him a large family in shorts and tee shirt. He points at them and expresses his outrage at them being there. Now he says he feels safe where he is, 50 yards away from the family that’s insane. Does he have some kind of force field around him?”
Exactly. Just what the fuck makes you think YOU aren’t just as insane, Mr. CBS man? Oh and apparently Geraldo got “knocked the fuck down by a wave on Fox news”. Awesome. Oh, as I was typing this, I got a link to the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLZ7lK7-G_A
Here’s an update for the 360/2222 area: It’s sunny and a tree moved. Slightly.

My breakfast. A Cow Egg. What is a cow egg, you ask? It’s a hardboiled egg smooshed into an ice cream sandwich maker mold. I heard about it on www.lunchinabox.net. Neat site about bento boxes and making lunches fun for kids. And adults apparently. Because I hadn’t eaten a hardboiled egg by itself in ages. I make it into a cow (or piggie) and I scarf them up.
So why the egg? My new job (yay!) is about 10 miles from my house. No big deal. Unless it’s rush hour. So a 15 minute drive in the morning turns into 45 minutes. From there to San Marcos is an hour and from there to Round Rock is…also an hour. Not the same distance. At all. ANyway, there’s nowhere to really eat that’s close out here on 360. There’s stuff near 2222 but it’s a pain in the ass to get there and come back. Everything else is just too far. Gas is too expensive and I just don’t like to eat out all the time. So, I have started packing my lunch. Yesterday, a sandwich. Plain old sandwich. That’s boring. Today: spinach and feta mini quiches. Hells yeah. My next step, using proper bento boxes to help with portion control (HAH!) and cuz they look cool. Also, I figured, since I’m cooking my lunches for the week, I might as well cook for Tico. He scored 6 single serving shepherd’s pies in the snack sized HEB brand disposable plasticware. It worked beautifully. I hope to keep this going and keep a nice variety of food for me (Tico can eat the same thing over and over. bleah).

I found a job! Well, more like the job found me. It was an okay interview, I didn’t have any vibes about it one way or the other. Then, almost out of the blue, I get The Call. More like The Email. I am very excited and ridiculously happy.

When scheduling phone calls with prospective employers, always verify the time. 1pm in Austin, is not 1pm in Vegas. I will wholly admit to dropping the ball on this one. I could have been worse. It could have been 1pm EST. And I was not home at that time. *facepalm*
