Jamie, Jack And Stench

Every morning I tune into Star 98.7 here in LA to listen to the hilarious and sometimes controversial morning show of Jamie, Jack and Stench. They make my morning commute barrable. They laugh, they are serious, they tell great stories, and they play some great music. Last summer, Star suddenly did away with them . I think I blogged about it then. After a few weeks and TONS of people calling and complaining they brought them back. Well it sure was short lived. Because they are off the air again! What is wrong with Star and Clear Channel when they can’t listen to the community they serve and keep a great radio show on the air! I mean for gods sake, the host Ryan Seacrest on KissFM 102.7. UGH!

The sad thing is that most of the stations here in LA that I listen to are owned by Clear Channel… This morning as I was on my way to work at 4:10am, I was flipping through the stations and THREE of the six sations I have programmed into my car were all playing the same fucking SONG! All of them Clear Channel Stations! So I am officially switching over to JackFM 93.1. I encourage anyone else in LA to stop listening to Clear Channel Stations.

In other news… I have a date lined up for each of the next 4 days! Ok, so I’m not getting a very good start on my new years resolution. But I gotta get out there and do this, and get a move on.

After mulling things over I called my Agent yesterday afternoon and thankfully he hadn’t put the offer in yet. I asked him to lower it a little bit more, and then submit it. I really like the building, but with that woman being in such a long lease, I don’t want to be just breaking even the first three years. I want to have a little bit of income incase something horrible goes wrong! I’m still hoping that they accept, but in case they don’t I had him send me a few other places to look at as well.

Went to Best Buy last night. I’m sure I’ve bloged about it before but we got a gift certificate. I looked online and found the things I want to buy, go to the store. They only had ONE of the things on my list. The list Includes:

– HoneyWell HFD-130

– Wii

– UPS (Which is what they had in Stock)

– Osterizer 4126

– The Da Vinci Code (Which they had in stock for $10 more then it was listed for on the website!)

– Airport Express

– Strangers With Candy (The series OR The Movie)

– Chicken Run

– The Dick Van Dyke Show (Seasons 4,5)

Obviously I wasn’t going to get the WHOLE list, but just some of the items off the list. I’ve really been debating lately about getting a Wii or PSP. But I’m just not sure how much of a novelty it would be for me. You know I’m not much of a gamer, but it just seems like so much fun!

Now, how come when I Google for a specific product, the first result isn’t the manufacturer’s website? IE. If I Google for “Osterizer 4126”. I think the first result should be from www.oster.com. I don’t want to have to go through all the results of places selling the damn things. That’s what Froogle is for!

Holy SHIT! I just checked my cell phone bill.. $121! I used 775 text messages last month! Oh my Jesus! So then, no more txts this month! I knew I was going over my plan last month. But I had NO IDEA by how much!

Adios.

Give me the OPTION!

OMG. I HATE web programmers.

I admit. I don’t follow the hacks to make things work in IE for most of my own websites. But I at least offer the person the option to continue! I don’t LOCK THEM OUT. Today I was trying to use the TRowePrice website and was handed an error that said I was using an outdated browser and should “Upgrade” to Netscape. I am sorry. But I am using the latest version of Camino.. I REALLY don’t think that Netscape is an “Upgrade” to Camino!

So I called the HD line that they gave and bitched the guy out. Make your fucking websites at least USEABLE I don’t want to download another browser just to fucking use your site.

After I was done with the HD guy. I called the Customer Service and started the process to close out my TRowePrice accounts. Assholes.

Ever wonder what 200 Calories looked like? Check it out here. Very Interesting.

Last night after the chat with Chiba I was feeling pretty shitty. So I went out with Hector to Here. It was fun, I had a drink and took my mind off the Mayko and that issue and focused on having a good time and watching the hotties there at Here! He was even so nice as to come pick me up and drive me home! 🙂

Chiba called me while we were on the way and I told him I was out, he asked that I call him today to talk more. Not really sure what he’d want to talk about. He made his point perfectly clear. I liked him more then he liked me. So that’s that. He asked if we could be friends. I said probably not. At least not right now. We’d probably have to go through the whole not talking thing for a couple months for my feelings to go away before we could be friends again.

I’m VERY anxious to hear back about our offer.. Our agent is having surgery today… So we probably won’t hear anything till next week would be my guess. But I just wanna know if we get it or not! The offer was 10k less then asking, so I’m not sure it’ll go through. But the furnace replacement costs are going to be $5k in the next year or so.. So paying the asking price would not be profitable. Even at what we offered we’ll just be breaking even the first couple years.

I have a really interesting contract job going right now. But I’m finding it hard to get the motiviation up to do it. I really need to just concentrate and do the paper design of the stuff and just get it cranked out. I’ve been making slow progress, but so far it’s all just been a jumbled mess of thoughts and ideas. Nothing concrete. I have to find some creative inspiration!

Adios.

Yeah.. It’s Over

I woke up it was 7

I waited til 11

Just to figure out that no one would call

I think I’ve got alot of friends

But I don’t hear from them

What’s another night all alone

When you’re spending every day on your own

And here it goes

I’m just a kid

And life is a nightmare

I’m just a kid

I know that it’s not fair

Nobody cares cuz I’m alone and the world is having more fun than me

And maybe when the night is dead

I’ll crawl into my bed staring at these 4 walls again

I’ll try to think about the last time I had a good time

Everyone’s got somewhere to go & they’re gonna leave me here on my own

And here it goes

I’m just a kid

And life is a nightmare

I’m just a kid

I know that it’s not fair

Nobody cares cuz I’m alone and the world is having more fun than me

What the fuck is wrong with me

Don’t fit in with anybody

How did this happen to me?

Wide awake I’m bored & I can’t fall asleep

And every night is the worst night ever

I’m just a kid

And life is a nightmare

I’m just a kid

I know that it’s not fair

Nobody cares cuz I’m alone and the world is

Nobody wants to be alone in the world

I’m just a kid

And life is a nightmare

I’m just a kid

I know that it’s not fair

Nobody cares cuz I’m alone and the world is

Nobody wants to be alone in the world

Nobody cares cuz I’m alone and the world is having more fun than me tonight

I’m all alone tonight

Nobody cares tonight

Cuz I’m just a kid tonight

Simple Plan is really speaking to me tonight…

Talked to him… Yeah, it’s over.

Offer and Undies!

I’m slowly making it into the new year… Things are moving along. Work yesterday, Bike ride and shopping with Jason. Good times.

As per usual, I feel really down and sad. Etc.

Put an offer in on a house yesterday. That was the high point of the day, I’d have to say.

I love Underwear!

And so you look good in that underwear, how about some Smoothie Recipes?

Ugh. Boys! They make me sad.

Bush is such a fucking idiot! “President Bush requests line-item veto power” … “We’ve got to make sure we spend the people’s money wisely” … OMG! What about all these things when your buddies were in power. You’re just NOW figuring this out? After HOW MANY YEARS in office. Can’t someone just hang him already!? And then leak the video to Youtube?

Tchau!

About the Worst New-Year

So I’ll tell you about it. Here’s what happened…

Saturday night I headed out to LAX to pick up Andrew. When I left my house at 9:45, it said his flight was only 6 minutes late. However he didn’t actually land till nearly 10:30. Drove him up to his car and then headed off to the Abbey.

Met up with Hector, Jess and Chiba… Along with all of their respective friends. It was a huge mess. I was trying to talk to all of them at the same time, and just not working out well at all. The Abbey was pretty fun though, etc. After that Chiba and I went out to pizza after. Ended up having 2 randoms from way up north sit with us and chatting. I really like that whenever he and I go out somewhere there are some random people who end up talking to us. It’s very fun. Some cute, but REALLY fem guy came up and started talking to me as well… When he left he said, “Keep on smiling”. Very strange!

Drove back to Chiba’s place after that and we went to bed about 5am. I woke up about 11ish Sunday, all ready to go and do something. But Chiba didn’t wake up till nearly 2pm. By that time it was too late to do the things that I had wanted to do Sunday, so we ended up just going out to dinner and then back to his place and watching Harry Potter. He started getting ready to go at 8pm.. We didn’t leave till 10pm. He seriously changed like 3 times. I was very annoyed by the time we left. We called this place called Geisha House and made reservations for 11pm. Get there, and have to wait 15 minutes in line…. JUST to get to the front desk to tell them we have reservations. Then come to find out, they are still seating people who had reservations at 9:45pm!! HELLO! Why did they not fucking tell us that when we called!?

So we left, and went over to his friend’s house. It was like 11:30 when we get there, and I’m pissed. They just stand around talking, and we leave like 10 till midnight to get to the Abbey. NO WAY. So I spent my new years in a fucking car. SO ANNOYING.

Douglas, the other guy in the car. Said “what’s the big deal”. Exucse me, the WHOLE deal about new years is the 10 seconds before and the 20 seconds after midnight. The count down and then the celebration. GOD I was so fucking annoyed.

So we get to the abbey and I decide to have a drink… 151 and coke. Normally these come in a short glass.. This guy gave me a BIG glass. I was so drunk. And I HATED that feeling as well, god no more drinking! After while at the Abbey, Douglas and Phil wanted to go to Mickey’s, which I have only heard horrible things about. And since I hadn’t eaten since 2pm. I was starving. So Mayko and I went to the pizza place again. And again we ended up talking to random people. I had to pee after that, so Mayko went off to meet up with them and I stood in line for what felt like an hour to pee. Went down to meet up with them and some guy at a stop light grabbed my arm and wanted to talk with me. Very random!

Got down to Mickey’s and they are walking towards me, saying they are ready to leave. I feel like that was my fault because I bitched about going there. I didn’t want to make them leave if they didn’t want too. Anyways, so on the ride home, Mayko and I start talking and all of a sudden he says, “I don’t think I’m ready for a relationship right now”

UGH! WHY does this always fucking happen to me. God damnit. So we get back to his house at like 3:30am. I’m still pretty damn drunk. But I’m sure not going to stay at his house now. So I walk out and drive home. Got there about 4:30am and went to bed.

(Private)

Me: So what after all baby this and baby that. You have nothing to say? What were you just trying to fuck me? You really hurt me, i liked you a lot.

Mayko: I need more time to think. I am sure that I did the mistake to treat you as a boyfriend because you are always very nice. But I don’t know if i could handle it right now.

Me: You hurt me a lot.

Mayko: Chris Please, that wasn’t my intention don’t want to make you feel like that. I gues we should have done this converstaion before.

Me: We did.

Mayko: About relationship?

Me: Yes, the first week we hung out. I asked you what you were looking for.

Mayko: Did You get home safe?

Me: Does it Matter… I wish this didn’t happen. I liked you a lot.

Mayko: Chris I like you too but I need more time to think if we could start a relationship right now.

Me: Fine, I guess. But I am very hurt. I guess we should have talked about it more then once.

Mayko (NEXT DAY): Chris are you ok? How are you?

Me: No, I am not. I am a very sensitive person.

Mayko: I am feeling so bad.

Me: I am sorry you feel that way, but you need to make the right decision, not just an emotional one. So think about what you want please.

Mayko: I am feeling more bad because you are such a nice person for me!

(/private)

So we talked some more on Monday, but nothing really productive. So yeah, new year starts off with me getting dumped! UGH.

In other news. I couldn’t sleep this morning, so I came into the office about 4am.. Also last year, I received 31,985 emails, that I KEPT! I averaged over 250 e-mails a day in all kinds of things. But I only kept an average of 88 per day.

My new years resolution? 1) Layoff the men. 2) Go back to school.

Tchau.
