Why.. do we always have to say ‘excuse ME’, when we can’t hear what someone is saying? Why are we so guilty and so appologetic.. ‘excuse ME, pardon ME, I’m sorry’ Why can’t once I go ‘Nope not loud enough’ Why can’t I do that? Just once I would like to have the guts, you know to make that judgment, someone mumbles something you go ‘Your Fault. I’m not sorry because it’s your fault.’

I’m tired, I’m freezing, I’m dumb
When it gets so late I forget everyone.
I need somewhere to stay.
Don’t think anybody I know is awake.
Calm down, it’s alright,
Keep my arms the rest of the night.
When they ask what do I see,
I see a bright white beautiful heaven hangin’ over me.

It’s official: 8% of Americans are not sure if they’ve been to the club.
The stuff that sick days are made for.
Today is my first every sick day from any job, ever. Which seems chronicles of ridic, but I guess considering that at my previous job (earls) all you had to do was send out an e-mail and the shift was gone within 30 seconds, so maybe that’s why.
Anyways, I’m using today to torrent all those shows I’ve been told I need to watch. ATM I am watching Breaking Bad while Girls and Game of Thrones download. Thanks to my new PS3 this is a cinch.
This has been another ad for…. THE INTERNET!
I was on board until Twins. At least it’s not as bad as Junior was.
And can we again just reflect on the fact that THAT Arnold Schwarzenegger was the elected governor of California for 8 years?
