A List of Things That Would Make Me Happy (That Are Actually Plausible)
1.) Commercials/movie trailers listed the name of the song playing.
2.) Apple iPods had a battery time longer than one car ride. (Or maybe that's just mine....)
3.) Sarah Palin could just, I don't know, go away.
4.) Networks actually played quality programming instead of just reality shows about every single sector of life that we never wanted to know about in the first place.
5.) While we're at it, networks, play some some decent shows, or at least decent reruns, on Friday and Saturday for all of us folks who have no lives and don't go out on the weekends *cue the Forever Alone meme* or people who DVR all their shows anyway.
6.) Waterproof/resistant cellphones? They can make waterproof/resistant watches; sounds possible.
7.) Can restaurants not have their water dispenser with the Sprite dispenser? You know, when to get water it's that little white handle under the Sprite button on the soda machine? Because the water gets all Spritey and it's not wanted. I wanted water, not Sprite, if I wanted Sprite, I would have ordered it. (It's even worse when it's with the pink lemonade; then it's just bitter.)
That's all I'll bore you with today, my fine people!
I'll leave you with this:

I Didn't Know I'd Love You So Much
At the suggestion of several friends, I finally watched Repo! The Genetic Opera. I thought, 'hey, a horror-rock opera with Anthony Stewart Head from Buffy, Sarah Brightman's stellar vocals, and Paris Hilton's face falling off?! Sign me up!'
To make a long post short - I loved the movie and loved the music!
If you haven't seen it, and you're not squeamish (it's very graphic with the whole ripping organs out thing because, hey, these are the guys who made Saw), see it! [If you have Netflix - it's one of the flicks you can watch instantly on your computer.] You'll either love it or hate it! Hopefully it will be the former and you don't waste 98 minutes of your life....
Oh and let's see, will I talk about American Idol in this post? No, no I won't. That sentence was enough.

Ah, Retail Therapy
I truly do believe that shopping is therapeutic...unless you're a chronic spender, then not so much. I, on the other hand, suffer from a very different kind of disease that was passed on to me through my mother: need-a-sale-itis. I can only buy an article of clothing, or piece of jewelry, if it is on sale. I can not pay full price for anything! Today, I got some rad deals y'all. *Does a happy dance*
Plus, I got to spend time with one of my best, longtime pals! Retail therapy is really the only therapy that is actually enjoyable when you do it with other people. Otherwise, it just feels awkward. I speak from personal experience.
The only downside: we live in a nowhere town! Like the kind of town that you have to describe its location by telling people how close it is to other towns, but the closest town that they have actually heard of is over two hours away. Ya, we live in that town. You think our mall is cool? Dude, stoners and homeless people won't even hang out at our mall. You can actually be the only customer in a large department store on a Saturday. I'm not even exaggerating about that part.
So, anyways, this post is pretty much ending with a rant to retailers everywhere that will go unheard for obvious reasons. We need better stores in our mall. It won't happen because we're a poor small town - a dying breed. End of story.
Sorry that this post was sort of useless. Just needed to vent my retail joys and frustrations. I wonder if bicycle glasses will help....

A Night of Movies and Apocalypses
Oh look at that! Here I am posting the very next day instead of several weeks from now as I had predicted yesterday! Guess my foresight is about as accurate Harold Camping's.

So, We Kinda Went and Walked for Cancer and Stuff
This evening my dad's company decided to participate in our local Relay for Life event and I tagged along because I wanted to get out of the house. I actually quite enjoyed myself and had a much better time than anticipated.
Plus I saw this
Of course, it was more about raising money for cancer, but this car, well I consider that a lovely topping for the evening.
It was also very crowded, which did indeed bring a little smile to my face because that means that people actually cared enough about this cause to spend a Friday night walking a track.
At this walk, they lined paper bags all around the ground and lit candles inside of the bags after dark. Each of the bags represented a person who is fighting cancer or has passed away from cancer (and that's just in our town). The amount of bags all around the track was staggering.
It's barely even a scratch in the amount of money needed to fund research for better treatments and better prevention plans but it's something. Many people might say things such as, "Oh what does that do? Nothing! It's not going to cure cancer!" Well frankly that's about the equivalent of saying you shouldn't give a homeless man a sandwich because it wouldn't solve world hunger. If we helped even one person in anyway and just made their life a little easier, then it was worth a Friday night. (Not like I had anything else to do!)
Sticking with the serious mood of the night, Macho Man Randy Savage died today. Heart attack behind the wheel of his car. Thanks Randy, not only for giving us years of entertainment, but also for breaking out of the common pro wrestler mold by dying in a way that had no connection to drugs.
On a lighter note, on the way home from the walk, my dad and I saw an EMT sleeping in the back of the ambulance and for some reason we found it extremely amusing.
Here's a really bad picture of it where you can't even see the guy so you'll just have to imagine how funny it was.

P.S. - Since May 21st (aka Judgement Day) is tomorrow, I may not be able to post for several weeks due to the fact that I will be fighting off or further preparing for the impending Zombie apocalypse.

It's All Netflix's Fault
It is entirely Netflix's fault that I stay up all night watching 3 seasons of Crank Yankers because they're the ones who are cutting its live streaming off on the 22nd.
That's my story and I'm sticking too. Not taking personal responsibility for my own actions is what makes me American.
But Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel are worth the sleep deprivation.

Sex, Porn, and Stupidity
Disclaimer: If you clicked on this post because the title has the words "sex" and "porn" in it, don't get too excited.
After my mother and I ate some Mexican food and watched Old Dogs (say what you will but I could not stop laughing while Seth Green sang All Out Of Love on that gorilla's lap), we sat around and had some wonderful discussions about this lovely world we live in and it went something like this...
Okay, first off, Schwarzenegger, how in the world were you able to keep the whole bastard child thing quiet? You must have been paying that woman a ton of money!
"He's a dog!" - My Mum
Second off, this is what'd I'd like to see happen: McCain waterboard Santorum and get him to confess to planning 9/11, planning Pearl Harbor, and killing Julius Caesar. I bet he could and it'd make for a great, entertaining Republican convention for a change. [Note: I'm completely kidding, I do not support the use of torture, even on idiots.]
"I hope he wins the republican nomination...Just because I think he is the best alternative the republicans have..." - A Former Teacher of Mine
Thirdly, and lastly, I don't care that Osama Bin Laden may or may not have had porn in his compound.
"The people who care that he had porn have suffered some form of memory loss..." - Me
I was reading in a news article that suggested that the smear campaign was "because it troubles his potential sympathizers, that's why. They're more upset by porn and hiding behind women than by suicide bombing." Which does make sense; why not throw that little cherry on top?
"The 54-year-old zealot with three wives was the least likely guy in the compound to be watching erotic videos. Logically, the story makes no sense. But politically, it's perfect." - William Saletan

New Beginnings
Second time's a charm because I really don't want to have to start again!
This is my second time starting this blog and hopefully, it's for the better.
The first thing you should know about me: I have wicked insomnia, so most of these posts will probably be at ungodly hours of the night (or at least in my time zone - which is Eastern). Second thing you should know: I usually don't have anything particularly interesting to say, but I try and make it seem like I do.
Hopefully that will suit your blog tastes....
Now I will leave you with this. Enjoy.
