Things are looking up

Finding things to write about that won't offend most of the people reading this is going to be tough, so I'm just going to go with an easy one and hit up the past week. I think I may just have to disregard everyone's feelings and go full bore one of these days.

This last week has been a downer. First, 15th ranked Nebraska (GO CORN!) lost to unranked Texas Tech in one of the most wretched games in recent memory.
The Huskers lost 31-10 to a team they should have walloped. With terrible defense, even worse offense and stupid penalties this game was lost early on.

Next, the Dodgers lost the National League Championship Series in typical fashion. We left runners on base all too often and let the Phillies walk all over them. For some reason we just can't get past them and it's really starting to ruin a lot of my days. Last week my desk got moved right in front of the only TV at work. RIGHT IN FRONT! And all it did for me was give me an easier way to watch them blow it.

To top it all off, I've been stuck doing more work than I should...at work. I understand when a new person is new and doesn't really get it - it's just something you deal with and it gets better in time. But when I've finished laying out my page and I've sent it to print and one of the incompetent pre-press guys mysteriously deletes it, that makes me mad. Not to mention he also deleted one of the sports pages that had been layed out and sent hours earlier. Luckily we found the sports page on someone else's desktop which had been saved there by accident. I, on the other hand, got to layout another full page from scratch.

On to the good parts. That same night, I bought scratchers and came up four bucks. The night after that, we got out of work almost an hour and half early. Last Saturday I partied with Rob in Fullerton and drunkenly walked all over CSUF and found the "Where the Wild Things" grow. It's on that campus. Below is the picture of the hand


Sunday I hung out with Michal at the Yard House in Long Beach and watched the Dodgers get murdered, but still I got to hang out with the Polish man and drink some whiskey and beer.

Tonight I went to TOGO's and got a sandwich with a heavenly amount of bacon. What is a heavenly amount? I think there were 8 strips. It was perfect.

And tomorrow, I finally get to watch a Nebraska game live at home. They aren't usually televised out here and one of the few times it is I actually get to watch it.

Not to mention the barely legal I happened to meet last night and the fact that tomorrow night (Saturday night) I'll be in Fullerton, partying with the girls and the babe of all babes, good ol' Kacie. Like I said...Things are looking up.
