Insomnimaniac!

I definitely don't like to sleep. You miss stuff when you sleep, even if it's only really bad television! Believe me, I know. Closing at Taco Bell has gotten me all out of whack. I pretty much am awake from 4pm-8am and sleep 8am-4pm. I've taken a new liking to MTV and VH1. Not so much because I think they are good, but I think seeing the visualization of an artist's songs allows more insight into what they are trying to convey. And they do like to hire some fine women for the music videos.

But that is neither here nor there

PPG starts Tuesday! Good old 1.5 hour shift from what I understand. What the crap? I'm trying to avoid working at Taco Bell more, but at this rate, I won't be done until January 27th, 2006

My current thoughts are on entertainment and recreation. I would say, I definitely am not the bar type. Hmmm, crowded bar type. I like low-key bars where you can talk without yelling, maybe some pool, darts, all of that. None of this bodysurfing to get to the bathroom
But to have a good time it's all about people, but you also need stuff to do.
Tonight I hung out with Kate, Tom, Brian, and Kathryn, and that was awesome!
I matched Brian shot for shot (kind of a random part of the night)
We watched t.v., played euchre, and cranium.
That is a great night in my book
yes I know i"m a nerd
I also know doing that every friday will get old.
I've tried Friday! Magazine, thinking all that
I just am not good at finding alternative forms of entertainment.
That needs to be improved

I don't know if this is the same for every job
But at Taco Bell, the closers get screwed. They have to pick up for all the slack from the day and work around problems that day and mid shifts don't deal with. And it's often the case where people scheduled to work later that night get called in earlier to fill in for missing people. And they get to leave earlier, but the other hours are never covered. sorry, rant

This weekend should be good. Softball (doubtful) this morning, Browns game sunday. And that's all I got planned. But also the exciting thing is a push for a basketball team in lakewood rec. Me and Steve are working on getting it together. We just need to find 10 guys (i guess 8 now) to play. That has to come together by monday otherwise i'll have to find other forms of entertainment. Steve also talked about coaching a basketball team for grade school. He is suppose to be looking into that cause he has the connections. I hope that actually works out.

I need a hair cut.

John, a good buddy of mine, is working at BG, and is considering a job with the DOD, but that's only if he gets it. HE led me to believe he has a good chance, but the government is slow and deliberate. It'll move him back to the are which would be cool. He's been my co-manager or assistant manager for softball. He was a big reason we had a team the first year. So it's not really the same not having him in the area. I'm hoping he gets and takes this job!

IF you are not sure where to go next in your life, look into AmeriCorps*NCCC. IT's a great program that allows you to travel and do community service. I loved my 10 months on the west coast, and hope to live in Portland, Seattle, or Boise for some part of my life because of it. It's annoyign at times, but isn't everything? And I've made a lot of lifetime friends because of it. I just wish I got to see them more!

That's what I could streamline from my brain. I hope you're all dreaming good dreams
