So, I was watching Intervention on A&E the other day. There was a lady who definitely had a drinking problem on it. I dont know if you've ever seen the show, but basically someone who has some addiction gets an intervention from her family with the help of a television show so the whole world can see how pathetic you are. Anyway, this lady has such a problem that her husband has been trying to stop her from buying alcohol. So what does she do? Of course she starts sucking down bottles of LISTERINE. SHE DRINKS FUCKING mouth wash... And every day she's blackout drunk all day long. How much mouthwash does an alcoholic have to drink to stay drunk all day ? A shit ton. Don't you think the people at the local grocery store would say a little something to the lady ? She must be buying at least 3 gallons of the shit a day. It was crazy. She got upset when she couldnt SEE her mouth wash...
So why talk about this? I don't know, perhaps my addiction to video games? Or poker? I would probably be addicted to gambling if I had more money. So all I'm really saying (aside from SERIOUSLY how much mouth wash would you have to drink to be drunk all day long) is that if I ever get that bad... Someone stop me by any means necessary.
Well, I'm gonna go get ready for some poker, so you all have a great night.

Great Fun Times
So tonight there was a Rascal Flats concert at the BJC. What does that mean to lil' ol' me? Well, here's the thing, Eat 'n Park and the W. T. (white trash) go together very well. As it happens, W. T. and country music also go together very well. I think you may be able to tell where I'm going with this.
On a night where we are expecting to be busy, my GM calls at 11 o' clock just to shoot the shit, cause she's on vacation down in Florida. Now, as some may know, 11 is the time that I have a ton of shit to do if I am working as the Cover Manager. So, this is extremely annoying to me. Then, all hell breaks loose and the W.T. are out in full force. Mountain Dew and Steaks with ketchup are everywhere. And everyone needs me to help them. If only I worked at a place where everyone could actually handle doing their jobs. (No offense to anyone who was there)
This is the life of Adam. I go to work, do everyone else's job, go home and repeat. I need a new job like whoa over here. Someone help. Really, burn down the building or I will.
On a lighter note, perhaps I'll go out tonight and enjoy the terrible singing of some other W.T. or at least listen to the new wave stylings of Jonathan. Who wants to miss that? I mean, it is Sunday, Arena is just what we do. I think I need a near death experience to push me out of this lull I've fallen into. Yes, I did just end a sentence with a preposition, yes I know I shouldn't.
And let's just talk about how much I enjoy having people talk about me. I found out yesterday that, apparently, upon becoming single, I have become the Eat 'n Park whore. Or at least thats what the rumors would have you believe. So far, I'm dating one girl, I've slept with another, and I just asked out yet another. It's weird how you can do so much and just not remember any of it. Screw you guys. I'm not dating anyone. I didn't ask anyone out. And I am not getting any. And in case you wanna know if any of those things happens, ASK ME. I'm a pretty open guy. If you care about my life, the best source on it (as far as I know) is ME.
Sorry. The rumor mill is killing me.
Does anyone have an opinion on what I should buy next, video game wise? I'm torn between spending the money I don't have on all sorts of games and still can't play the ones I have.

Tomorrow Never Dies
Alright, so I was thinking that I should take the time to explain the title I chose for my mind's playground. You may be thinking that it was some sort of a nod to a terrible Bond movie with one of the worse James Bonds ever. You would not really be correct. Its more like Groundhog's Day. Have you ever seen that movie ? 'Cause that's how my life feels.
I wake up and everyday just feels like the day before it. I eat, sleep, possibly play some video games or cards, and I work. Then, you just rinse and repeat. Now, I was kinda thinking that I should change the name to Today Never Dies or Tomorrow Never Comes, but hell, maybe I was ripping off a James Bond title.
Now, I'm guessing my tendency towards procrastination is the main cause for my days continuing end over end. For instance, the other day I hear that Northrop Grumman just signed a huge defense contract (meaning they should be getting a few openings). So I decide to throw in a resume online. I spend a couple minutes filling out most of the information, then I realized I'm not sure where my resume is saved. Then, a few days later i just kinda decided I didn't care anymore. Or another example: My computer keyboard was broken when it was shipped to me (I have a laptop, by the way). One of the keys (the T key) was broken and would pop off if hit the right way, which was pretty easy to accomplish. It wasn't so easy to put back together. After about 8 weeks, I decide to send Dell a complaint. Two days later a new keyboard is shipped to me. I'm a little annoyed that I'm forced to fix it myself, since it was faulty to begin with. Guess when I changed out the keyboards. That's right YESTERDAY. I waited in the vicinity of 4 months to take 20 minutes out of my time to fix it.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Oh and fun procrastination tools coming out for Wii soon:
No More Heroes (just released)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl (March 9th)
Mario Kart (April)
and I'm sure that I could find something new to play on 360 as well, like COD 4 maybe ?
Oh and if anyone reading this has Xbox Live and Halo 3 let me know.
Maybe its time for bed.

First Post
So, after much contemplation, (and reading Gideon and Josh's blogs) I've decided that I should throw my own into the fray. Unfortunately, at current moment I don't have much to say other than that I will have more to say later.
One of Gideon's recent blogs referring to Time not being on his side. Well, I feel your pain. At current moment I have two games that I've purchased but haven't really played at all, and more are coming that I want but I'm not sure I have time for. I need to play Assassin's Creed (360) and Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles (Wii) and No More Hereos (Wii) looks amazing. Movies are the same way. I think I'm falling behind because I am single now and more prone to go with someone to catch a flick. So yes take that as an invite to any movie worth seeing if you are reading this.
Anyway, thats all I have to talk about at current moment. More will follow I'm sure.
