My GF read my blog, and, LOL now her toothbrush is on the left side of the sink. Gotta just chuckle, cause, she was like, why didn't you tell me? I told her I did, she said Oh, and I was like, dude, you may have missed the point of me writing about it... THATS the kind of shit I find worthy of writing about or thinkink about, or talking about, cause, it makes me chuckle.
Apparently she didn't agree cause now the toothbrush is NOT where its in the way of the soap dispensor.
Which, I guess in a way is funny itself.
Not really too much happened today, same kinda start to my day as always, spent some time writing, spent some time looking and applying for job, got depressed, took Holly for a walk, cleaned.... had some leftovers for dinner. I'm actually amazed at how good my dip came out, I was asked to make a 7 layer dip, I believe I made it 9 or 10 layers... I didn't have a chance to really have any yesterday cause while cooking, it lent itself to eating the stuff when it came out, IE Took out the potatoe skins, had a few... took out the pizza rolls, had a few, etc... never got around to the dip, or even trying the wings i made too... the wings came out really good... used this chipolte spice mix my gf picked up at the Pomona Asian Festival a few weeks ago, not alot, just a bit, used 3 different kinds of BBQ sause, and than some honey... also wiped the wings with Olive Oil before popping them in the oven. Had a few tonight, pretty tasty....
Kinda wish I could cater some parties for people... I could be like Messiest cater EVER... but the food kicks ass LOL.
So, yeah, I signed up to take Jeopardy's "online test" to see if I could be a contestant. I wasn't going to do this, but, the past few days I haven't been focusing on the people who WON as much as the people who LOST, and, I don't really feel that I would look any dumber on there than some of these people did.
But, my gf and her sister watch it, and, they call out the answers along, and, apparently their encoruagement that I seem to know a good deal about things is working since, well, I signed up for the test.
The way it works is, you take a 50 question test online... than depending on how you score, if you score well enough they ask you to come in to take ANOTHER 50 question test... than if you do well on THAT they put you in test "Games" to see how you do... they than proceed to do interviews and such and than decide weather you make it on the show or not.
I actually think the 2nd 50 question test is a good idea that way, I'm sure people can prolly cheat on the online one, but, you can't CHEAT when they are asking you in person, so, this may deter people from cheating.
IDK, I keep telling them with my luck I won't get on there, and even if i DID, I would prolly get catagories I know NOTHING about, like Art and 17 century literature... cause there is days I do real well while watching, IE like today, i got the 1st 14 questions RIGHT in the 1st round... but, theres days ill go a whole round without answering ANYTHING right.... based on luck I guess as to which catagores come up... I don't honestly feel I'd get lukcy enough to get enough catagories I'd know something about to even have a chance at winning. It's kinda why I shyed away from the idea since I don't want to look like a complete fool on TV.
Guess we'ee see how the test goes thursday night.
Felling a bit under the weather today... I don't know why. When I took Holly out, it felt like it was like 75 degrees. Took my nyquill... maybe I'll wake up feeling a bit better. Looking forward to more leftovers tho LOL.
My gf and I are thinking of getting a small pet. She almost wants me to get my dog, but, since I want a Jack Russell Terrier, and, besides Holly there is another dog in the house, and I honestly think that dog would KILL a Jack Russell, I'm not really too up on that idea. Plus, honestly, I like Holly alot, and, Holly is a one dog per house kinda dog. If I was to get a dog to try and put in the same house as Holly, if after a month it was obvious Holly didn't like it, I'd than have to find a way to get it adopted someplace else. Holly was here 1st, and, I'd hate to disrespect her. I'd give it a try tho, and do my best to make SURE my dog didn't bother her.
One day...
But yeah, now we are talking about a Rabbit or Guinea Pig or a Rat, I'd like to have something a bit more exotic, I'd LIKE to have a Prarie Dog, but, I read that they are illegal EVERYWHERE in the US and have been since 2003. Hedgehogs are illegal in California. We were looking at Sugar Gliders, but, too small. We're thinking of getting a Chinchilla. We'll see, but, IDK, I'd hate for it to get out cause, the other dog in this house would eat it. Holly would prolly go running away from it since thats the kind of dog Holly is... She'd take one look at it, and be like, what the hell is that thing? Than go and lay down and not be bothered.
We were discussing it before, who knows? Maybe if I ever find a fucking job, I may be ok with it but at THIS point, IDK, I honestly feel like too much money is spent on animals in this house, but they aren't mine, so, I don't really opine about that too much, but that being said, me not being able to locate a job, putting more money out for a pet doesn't seem like the best course of action at the moment.
Anyways, off to bed. Maybe I'll go hit that staffing agency on weds during the day and see what they have to say... Still would much rather work for minimum wage and have a job with benefits, I'd hate to take yet another step back in life. I did that at 31, I'd hate to have to do that at 35 turning 36.

Excuse Me... Do You Know Where The Crapper Is?
I Need to drop off some timber...
Early today, haven't started looking for jobs yet, woke up about 45 minutes or so ago, was just getting my legs under me, than, the gurgling started, so I figured it best to come drop off some timber, even if it is earlier than normal.
SO, fingers crossed everyone that I have some luck finding some places to apply today!!!
Oh, and, yeah, I hit some button on error, so, chances are, if you are reading this previous to me editing the body of the post, its gonna say...
"Excuse Me... Do You Know Where The Crapper Is?"
in the title and nothing else....
Should be a fun an interesting weekend. My gf and her sister invited a few people over for Super Bowl sunday. I'm doing all the food prep, which is exciting for me, making some pop in the oven a cook shit, but alot of it will be more unique.
As for the Super Bowl, I'm not big into sports now as much as I was when I was younger. I was fairly good at baseball, but, never played football, and, I hated basketball, and sucked at it when I played in pick up games anyways, but, my gf and her sister are huge into football and my gf is huge into basketball. Respectivly they root for the broncos and chargers, I moved out here, and, decided since I didn't have a favorite team, I'd adopt the Raiders, which is kinda cool by me cause, the games I watched this year, the team was cool, and, Darren McFadden is fun to watch.... but, yeah, the Super Bowl, I grew up a Packers fan, Brett Favre is my fav player, but, the way Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy ushered him out of Green Bay to me was offensive, especially when its to the greatest player in NFL history, so, I said I wouldn't root for Green Bay as long as those 2 were in charge of the team. So, while the Super Bowl is on, I'll prolly be cooking away at the stove... which is fine, I don't think the game will be all that good this year anyways, people seem to think I'm crazy for saying that, but, I feel like the loss of Markice Pouncey is a bigger blow than they are letting on, I mean, last week, after he got hurt, they fumbled away a ball and got tagged for a safety after another bad snap, so, I think Green Bay will win comfortably by winning by 10-14 points.
Making all sorts of fun stuff, homemade Pizza Rolls, Dips, Wings.... should be a fun experimental food day for me.
Man, I think I'm gonna go down and get me a energy drink, I feel like I need one today... kinda dragging.... OH thats a good topic to end with.
My GF and I are having a huge arguemant about if or when we have kids, possible names for them. I want to name our kid, if we have a son, Richard Dragon. She doesn't seem to think thats a good idea. She has dragons tatted on her, so she LIKES dragons, so, I don't see what the problem is. Richard Dragon is a good strong name that would intimidate anyone just by the sound of it. We argue about this often. Apparently I'm never going to win. It's all well and good, I'll let her THINK shes gonna win, than, when shes done going thru labor, and squeezing the kid out, I'll flip the doctor, or, anesteiologist like 50 bucks, and, have them give her like a ridiculous amount of painkillers, so, that way she passes out.... and when she wakes up, I'll present her with her new son, RICHARD DRAGON, as, by this time, I'll have put the name on the birth certificate and there will be NOTHING she can do!!!!!

I Am SO Gonna Drop This Laptop Someday...
Which, wouldn't be a good thing since, after my car payment today, and, after I deposit some christmas money I have been putting off with the assumption I'd spend it if I had it available, which, where the fuck would I spend it, I don't actually GO out anywhere, and proceed to pay my phone bill and a minimum payment on my credit card in 2 weeks or so... I'll be at that point where I need to decide weather I should head back to NY, or keep my fingers crossed that in the next 4 week, which is about what I have saved... enough to get HOME or enough for a months or so bills... I'll locate a job.
I really don't want to borrow money from ANYONE, I feel like somewhat of a failure at the moment anyways, but if I get to the point I'm asking people for money, well, I'm really gonna sit down and start questioning where my life is going.
And like I have mentioned previous, applying for some sort of government assistance is unacceptable to me. While I am applying for jobs EVERYDAY, I am in no way not able to work. I don't feel like with me being able to work, yet, not being able to find a job, that being a valid reason to beg the government for a handout. I'm not one of those people who at this point wouldn't work for federal minimum wage, while I WOULD be embarassed about my station in life cause of it, I'd be proud I was working for what I was getting.
but yeah, the laptop thing, when I get up at times like these, say 1150pm PST to come use the facilities, and my gfs dog Holly is in our room, I kinda have to jungle gym over my sleeping girlfriend to get off the bed on her side, as oppposed to walking around the foot of the bed, because Holly's bed is kinda at the foot of my gfs side. Holly is a good dog, so, I totally respect her, Holly is the best example of a real life dog I've ever come across thats like Courage The Cowardly Dog, that old cartoon. Holly is scared and startled by everything. It took a long while before she warmed up to me, the first time I came to visit my gf while we were not living together, Holly wouldn't come near me, no matter how slow I approached, or, how slowley I came up to her. The second time she started to trust me more, nowadays, she lets me pet her while shes starting to sleep, she follows me around, its a nice feeling. Almost like I can win over anyone with who I am.
Anyways, so, after I jungle gym over my sleeping gf, I grab the laptop from my side of her bed, and, walk into the hallway which is pretty dark, open the bathroom door, and thats where I can just FEEL like I'm gonna drop this thing. CRASH onto the bathroom floor, broken screen. Not good.
But so far, so good I guess LOL.
I'm also kinda worried that it's gonna fall off my lap while I'm typing. Being....chubby... my stomach kinda keeps the laptop very close to the end of my thights, in fact the right side, kinda sits off my right knee a little, the laptop is kind of angled a bit from about an inch inside my left knee. I do this because the fucking mousepad area, or whatever you call that shit on a laptop, I've hit it before while typing stuff, and it fucks up my whole post, I tend to be right hand superior when i type, so this is about the only way to have it sitting on my lap so I don't constantly hit that stupid mousepad area. At least theres some clothes against the wall in front of me that MIGHT cushion the blow if it DID fall off my lap while doing an entry.
Oh, the other day I thought of an interested problem with doing this. I've decided to try and blog everytime I'm sitting in here emptying out, but what happens if I am OUT and I need to drop off the Cleveland Browns at the Super Bowl?!?!?!
What I've decided to do in THIS situation is, send an email to myself from my cellphone from wherever I am going at that moment. Than when I get home, copy the email and enter it as a post HERE, with the Title of the post being the place, date and time... for example... if I happen to be out at the Griffith Park Observatory sightseeing, and, I need to hatch a dirt snake, while I'm in there, I'll do an entry on my cell phone, send it to my email address, and when I get home, it would be like...
Griffith Park Observatory. 1/27/11. 135pm PST
Seems like a fair way to handle that situation wouldn't you think? Plus than, maybe, just MAYBE you will be able to feel like you have visited the same shitters I have, be it famous, IE Griffith Park Observatory, or not, IE the Ralph's Food Store up the street.
Had a nice dinner tonight, went out earlier and bought stuff to make what was prolly one of the most unhealthy lunches ever, Chedder cheese mashed potatoes, sausage, and bacon. yum. at least I bought DIET Dr. K instead of Regular LOL....
Funny side note, a guy I used to be really great friends with, James, we had this thing, because we loved Dr. Pepper so much, everyplace we went, if they had a generic Dr. Pepper, IE Dr. K is Ralph's/Krogers Generic or like i BELIEVE Dr. Thunder is Target or Wal-Marts, we'd buy a 12 pack and make sure we both got to drink a can to see how it held up against Dr. Pepper AND previous Dr. Generics we had tasted. Always a fun little game, cause if one of us went some place out of state that had stores NOT in our area, Dr. K would be a great example, or, I used to visit Erie, PA alot to hang out with my best friend, they had Wegmans, and I would buy a 12 of THEIRS to bring home since Long Island didn't have wegmans, we wound up over the years getting to taste a bunch of different generics.
But, yeah, back to lunch, not very healthy, but oh so freaking good LOL.
My gf when she was hanging out after she got up, shes been sick if you remember for the past week or so, she asked what I was making for dinner.... I felt like tacos, so, went and got stuff for tacos, and, they actually turned out pretty well... what was fun about dinner was, I was all obsessed with trying to make Chocolate Crossants. See, my gf and her sister yesterday made me watch some really horrible movie with Steve Martin, Meryl Streep, Alec Baldwin. Something about geriatrics falling in love, I'm So Obsessed? some shit like that, but, at one point, Meryl Streep takes Steve Martin back to what I'll assume was her bakery or resteraunt, IDK, I was busy playing CityVille on facebook while this was on, and, he wanted Chocolate Crossants, so, they made chocolate crossants. Since I like to try new cooking things, I decided, well, I better make sure SOMETHING useful came out of me being subjected to that tripe, so I made chocolate Crossants for dessert.
pretty easy actually, bought one of the Ralph's store brand crossant tubes, a bar of Hershey's milk chocolate symphony and brought those shits home. In addition to those 2, I melted some butter to slather on the crossant pre rolling, put some cinnamon sugar onto it after THAT, than, and the ONE thing I'd change, i put a block of the Hersheys chocolate on the crossant before rolling it. in hindsight, I should've shaved the chocolate onto the whole flat crossant pre rolling, next time i will.... than on 4, added some carmel my gf had in the closet thats an addition to coffee.
very cool, quick little treat. came out very good.
So yeah, I guess it's time to get back to bed, not that I'm actually gonna get to sleep yet, took my 3 sleep aids previous to coming in here, but I'm not feeling it yet, so, I'll go back to watching Bubblegum Crisis 2040 and have my mp3 player ready and waiting for when I do start to feel it.
It was a good day. Well, maybe it WASN'T for all I know, but today, I don't know, I guess just felt a little better, and, I guess thats something right?
