Maybe it's just me...

Is there something about me that just screams "don't return my calls"?

I mean honestly! What the hell is with people never getting back to me? I had the same trouble when I was writing for the school paper and now I appear to have it with this one! I have absolutely no problems getting people to talk to me in person, that I can do with ease. I don't always strike out with people on the phone but it sure as hell seems a lot more difficult then it should be.

Answer your phones numbnuts! Call me back! That right there is half the reason I doubt my ability to become a reporter. The inabilities I seem to have when it comes to the telephone. It is ridic. That's why I hate the phone, things like that.

So anyway, I might be conning...well convincing my sister that we should go to the Brewer game Wednesday afternoon. I mean come on! What better time is there to go? A day game which means no having to navigate the hellish traffic in the dark and day games do not sell out. That also means we should be able to sneak to close seats! And the game is against the Mets. I don't think I've been to one against the Mets yet.

Blach! I'm waiting on the water softener dude. He called at a little after 8 saying he'd be here between 3 and 330. Now he called at 320 saying he was just leaving. It's almost 4. I have to be somewhere at 5. This dude better get here! I guess I'm gonna have to call ol' mama and tell her she's gonna have to come home early just incase the guy is still here when I gotta go.

Alright. Well I need to finish up some stuff for the paper so hasta la pasta party people!

I'll whistle your pig

Good news! Internet is back! A woohoo! It was a long week without it, lemme tell ya.

We have a woodchuck that lives in the woods. His name is Walter. Did you know that woodchucks are also groundhogs? Or perhaps my favorite, a whistlepig? We decided that we should trap him, make him a cage or a hole or something and then start our very own Puxatony Phil! The sign will read something like "Come See Walter, Wisconsin's very own whistlepig aka woodchuck aka groundhog. I anticipate we could make tens of dollars in this business venture. First I have to catch the sneaky bastard.

Blach. I could go into more stuff but I'm not really in the mood. Oh hey! Amazing Brewers win tonight, by the way. Walk off winner. Love it.

Ok. Later alligators.

I like to ride my bicycle

In the span of two days I saw to very odd things. On Sunday I saw a trailer full of clowns going to the road and on Monday I saw someone riding a giant bike. You know those old. giant tricycles that people would ride while wearing a bowler hat and suit coat? Well the bike was your standard Trek but with to of the giant ass wheels. It was odd. It's like the circus is in town or something. I don't like the circus.

So...it's been the same old same old lately. Ya know, doing much of nothing. I might go hit some golf balls today, spice things up. Exciting, no?

There's a new dog next door and the stupid thing barks a lot. It's a binge barker, goes on for five minutes, stops for like three hours. Annnnd now the pooch is done.

Blach. Bored. No Brewers on today, sad. And speaking of sad Trevor Hoffman blew his first save. They won at least so that part is good and Counsell had a good game so it made the game even better! A triple, fighting with an ump, a great grab, busting up a double play, a RBI. Not gonna lie, I kinda want to see him get thrown out of a game for yelling at an ump.

Well...that's it I guess.

Hasta!

Silhouetto of a can...

Dangit!

Now I have the Mountain Dew version of Bohemian Rhapsody stuck in my head!




Now you suckers can get it stuck in your head too. Muwahahaha!

So the school board was amazing last night...not. Thought it was funny at one point because they were discussing the alternative high school (where the bad kids go basically) and they were talking about personal matters the students had and then a principal said something about how it was sensitive material and with a reporter in the room they'd like to keep it that way and everyone looked at me. It was a little awkward. It was one of those head snap things where all the sudden everyone in the room snaps their head to look at you. I just sat there and was like "uhhhhhh" I think I did an "oh I understand" head nod. But bitches if it's an open meeting then it is fair game! I don't think we'd ever print anything that was said about the kids cuz it wouldn't be very tasteful.

Alright. That's it really. I was woke up at a little before 8 so I could fill the guy in about the meeting, good lawrd!

Hasta Luego! Hasta Luego! Dadadadada! ...Oh I'm gonna slap Ashley when she gets home...she gets all these stupid songs stuck in my head!

Official

Well?

have you looked at my new site? yes? Good for you, yay! No? Why the hell not?!

Aaaaannnnyyywwwaaaayyyy....

So. I'm officially now an intern/stringer! Which means hello another line on my resume! I like to put things on my resume. It makes me feel important. But you know what would make me feel really important? Getting a real job! But hey, I'll take what I can get.

So yeah...I don't really have much to say...my days are still pretty much filled with searching for jobs and sitting on my ass. Fun stuff! I'm going to a school board meeting tonight which will be good cause I need to get out more. I am going to go nuts if I stay here for too long I can guarantee that.

Well...chow mein!

New Digs

Hey people, check out my new site! I decided to make a picture one. It's just a blog but whateves, it works!

Why double clutch? Because.

That's the best reason I have for it so far. I thought it sounded kinda cool. I'll come up with a reason why soon enough! It's supposed to be baseball-ish, not truck-ish. Double Clutch is when a player has to get a better grasp on the ball before he can throw it. So I'm thinking about using that and coming up with a crafty saying or something. I don't know yet.

So check it out! You know you want to!

Hey Whore---I mean Jor....

Jorge Julio. What a disappointment. Way to suck beyond all reason and cost the Brewers the game, numbnuts!

He never really was all that good for the Brewers. Can't say that I'm sad that he's been booted off the club.

Due to his horrible performance, he is the lucky winner and has been photoshoped.
Not my best work, I'll give you that.

Oh! Good news! No I don't have a job. I am, however, starting to freelance! Yay! I already got my first story for Oregon and I go meet with another editor tomorrow. Yippee!

Well. That's really all I got. I don't do much so there isn't anything to share. Had a good weekend with Grandma's birthday party and spending some quality time with the baby. Oh, I just love her smile! I also love to squish her cheeks. Oh and her laugh. Ok I love pretty much everything about her...I don't like the poo. Yuck.

Right. Time to eat lunch and then mow the lawn.

Arrivederci Punks!
