The Greatest Week Ever?

As you all know Barack Obama will be inaugurated on Tuesday, but that is only but a fraction of the greatness that dwells within this week. Let me give you the rundown:

Monday: A brand new episode of House!

Tuesday: Barack Obama is inaugurated & a brand new episode of SVU!!!!!!!!

Wednesday: LOST IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thursday: Brand new episode of The Office and the return of Burn Notice!!!

Friday: Brand new episode of Psych!

Can somebody say best week ever?

The Delay Redux or A Year In Review or The Straight Dope

Yeah, I know. It's been over two months, get off it already. Nobody reads this anyway. 

Now that we are past that, lets get down to business. For anyone who cares and doesn't know what I've been up to since I moved, let me give a quick recap. Moving into an apartment on the 3rd floor is hell. The Best Buy here sucks and doesn't schedule me at all. I got a job working in the cafe of a Books-A-Million. The job sucked. I quit. A big university still doesn't fell that much different class wise from anything else I've experienced in my life. Disappointed in my classes. The only thing I learned at school last semester was that I walk in sync with the beat of "Billie Jean". Me and Kate are doing really good. Moving into an apartment on the 3rd floor is hell, and I'll be doing it again in March when we move into a bigger apartment.

I had planned on keeping up with this blog on a regular basis but got bogged down other stuff. Blah, blah, blah. I plan on continuing to keep up with the blog at least once a week. See you then.

Oh, one more thing before I go. What the hell is wrong with Hollywood. The movie business isn't doing well and they're out of ideas, so they decide to resurrect the dumbest gimmick from arguably the worst decade for film? I mean do they honestly think 3D is going to put asses in the seats. Bolt in 3D! Jonas Brothers in 3D! My Bloody Valentine in 3D! That just looks like shit, pure Alabama dog shit. But what do I know, people actually went to see Twilight and HSM3.

The Delay

I am currently overwhelmed by school work, as well as feelings of both jubuilation, in the result of the election, and stress, from multiple factors in my life. I will begin regualr blogging soon and might even begin to do video blogs, which would be faster and make me more interested in doing.

Be back soon.

The Mystery Of The Secret Ballot

So I spent the day knocking on doors and making phone calls for Barack Obama. Nothing pushy or anything, just asking people if they'd voted yet and for whom. If they were undecided I would ask them to consider Obama and hand them a pamphlet; if they had decided, that was the end of it, no attempts at mind changing. My basic job was to log this down for the campaigns records and statistics. 

The people who gave me the job made it sound like the question "Do you mind if I ask who you are voting for?" should be treated delicately and I proceeded in my days task as such. I didn't think it would be such a big deal but when the first guy answered the door with the appearance that talking to me was giving him epileptic fit, I began to think otherwise. People answered "Yes I do mind" and "The person of my choice" with such contempt I was baffled. 

When did it become such a big deal to say who you support. I'm just some 140 pound 19 year old standing alone on your porch, I'm not going to carve a B into your face if you answer incorrectly. Even if someone would answer me, there was that moment of hesitation in their voice to make sure that their answer would go over smoothly. It usually went something like "I'm for....uh...oOo....Obama?". Maybe it's just a desire not to upset or to please someone, or maybe it's a genuine fear of an angry, possibly violent, outburst. Or maybe it's just them being douche bags, like the 18 year old who told me he "likes to keep it personal". It's not a high school crush, but sorry for wasting your time James Carville. 

Welcome

Welcome everyone to my personal blog. This wont be like Gabazooba, it will be more like a typical blog that is mostly meant for my friends to keep on with whats going on with me, and maybe they'll start one as well to work in reverse. I should be able to update daily with whats going on, things I'm thinking and maybe even any videos I work, seeing as I now have a Macbook Pro to edit on (thanks Mom). So I hope that you will continue to check back here and keep up with me.

I'll start regular posting tomorrow.
