What’s up Interent?
It’s Tuesday, apparently morning. I’m not sure what time it feels like, but I know it’s not right. My clock is way screwed up. Being sick is stupid. Being stressed is WAY stupid. The two falling together does not bode well for a good whatever-time-it-is thought. At any rate, it’s been forever since an update happened, so here’s one.
In my non-sleeping state, I decided it was time to catch up on whatever was on the DVR. Here’s a quick recap -
1.) Sons of Anarchy – Effin’ Awesome. If you haven’t seen this show, go watch it now. Start at the beginning or you’ll be lost forever. I know at least the first 2 seasons are on Netflix, not sure when the third will happen.
2.) Archer – OMFG Awesome. Everything about this show is great – There’s drinking, there’s…women of ill repute, guns/sex/violence/etc/blah AND IT’S ALL IN A CARTOON. I want to give money to Adam Reed for bringing this to the world. He deserves stuff.
3.) Attack of the Show – HOT Awesome. Quick summary? K. There’s a hot chick who talks to me about video games, the Internet, fancy phones/gadgets, and comics. Oh, and sometimes she motorboats another even HOTTER girls chest. Tell me why you’re not watching this, and I’ll point out seven reasons you’re wrong for whatever it is that you say.
4.) How I Met Your Mother – Ok, so this one is actually kind of funny. The only channel that broadcasts this show in HD is…Lifetime. Yeah. There’s Lifetime on my DVR. Thankful that FX is picking it up next month, but for the time being, my show is riddled with horrrrrible crap – Dance Moms? Who the HELL thought that would be a good idea and why does it need to be on TV? Then you have your general plethora of the normal made-for-TV junk that it spills out. Now, I’m still trying to get used to having a DVR again, and I forget that I have this fancy ‘Fast Forward’ button. It allows me this magical ability of skipping all this junk, but instead I just forget and then whine to myself about how I have to endure these stupid commerci…OH WAIT I DON’T, PUSH THE GOD DAMNED BUTTON. The good side is that Lifetime runs this show like, 4 times a day so there’s always a fresh supply of the show.
5.) Modern Family – Gay Awesome. Seriously, the gay guys in that show make it so freakin’ hilarious. The rest of the show is totally good, don’t get me wrong. Without the gay guys though, it wouldn’t have the same touch. They bring a sense of ‘WTF really?’ to the show that is so comical it will make you pee a little bit. I’m behind by about a season, but I’ll fix it.
So all that comprised about 70% of the available space on my DVR. The bad part is that I’m now out of stuff to watch until more stuff happens. Not my best plan, since I’m nowhere near sleep yet.
In other news – I’m 30 now. It feels a lot like 29, but like, a year older, ya know? Seriously. It’s not a big deal. I got to have a great lunch with my Mom on my birthday (thank you again, momma) and then my team made it a really great day. Has your team at work ever given you an 8″ black dildo for your birthday? No? Well then you are not as privileged as I am to have such fine colleagues. For further reference, watch the video in the below link. WATCH ALL OF IT. Don’t wuss out and stop watching it. I’ll know. It’s 10 minutes of your life that you’ll love and cherish for as long as you love and cherish fond Internet memories:
When we think back on what we’ve done with our lives, I think the question we’re supposed to ask ourselves is “Was it worth it?” or “Am I happy with the outcome?” Well, let’s look at the rest of the junk I posted above here and use that as a reference to go by:
Stress, no sleep, Archer, boobs (that wasn’t on the list, but come on – it’s on every list), gay comedy, family, friends, relationship-building, and an 8″ black dildo.
That doesn’t sound too shabby to me. In fact, I hope next week goes about the same way. Am I happy with my life? It’s got some bumps and bruises, and needs a bit of healing, but of course I like my life. I think this is true of most people if they’d take a step back and look at what they really have and try to REALLY appreciate it instead of looking at what they can add to it to try to make it “better”. I’ve had a couple of events lately that have really opened my eyes and showed me a thing or to about what’s important – what I need to work on and what it’s going to take to get there. It’s a long time away, and I’m not really good at being patient, but it’ll happen.
TLDR version; I started growing a beard and it’s kinda neat.
