The Truth Files

Stephen Colbert/Daily Show Love. House, Hugh Laurie, Black Adder, BritCom obsessiveness. Eddie Izzard quoting ad naseum. Self loathing. Other people loathing. Anything else I can loathe-fit that in there too. Tales of alcohol and dogs. The occassional night at the bar causing trouble. Mis-treating brain cells...Who needs them? No sex. No drugs-usually. Much rock'n'roll. Just trying to survive in 615. Y'know. The usual.

Man turns his back on his family-he just ain't no good

Well, Easter was lovely.
I had ham, and the sister had salmon. We both had turnip greens and potatoes.
She bought me a Mars bar and some gourmet jellybeans. I didn't buy her any presents. But I didn't kick her in the shins either. And I shared my candy. Cuz I'm darling. We went to the dog park and watched Eddie Izzard Definate Article and laughed and laughed. Because he's terribly funny that Eddie. Still crazy touched from that gift. I'll not be able to watch D2K or DA without feeling all special.
I also introduced her sisterlyness to the Trip Back and we agreed that it is the funniest video of all time--we should be ashamed of ourselves for laughing at that poor woman's addiction. I just don't think I can be a Rat Fink and Drop a Dime on my friends. Even if it does keep them off Dope Street.
We watched it on my computer in stunning 3x5 inch resolution. And it was worth it.
(Jerri Blank voice) Good times.
Now over to the weather desk-it's getting warm in Nashville and my car is being a pissant about the A/C. I have less than a dozen trips to Bowling Green, KY to make in life. I can't imagine I'll be too excited about making lighthearted extra trips after I'm done with the bitch of a program I am so near completion. Then I get to be a folklorist. Or, as the kids call it-a waitress at a chain restaurant in the mall.
Oh-I just located Mr. Dog (or as I call him, Ceasar-a little yippie kind of maybe we'll feed him and he'll shut the fuck up kind of dog) he was forsaking me with his Auntie but he's back now. He probably wants a biscuit or something.
He got out today-Coupland did. He just pushed the door open and wandered out. What a bad bad dog he is. But then-he didn't really go anywhere. Just tried to get in the car and leave--so he was sentenced to the bedroom where he whined and made pitiful sounds.
Brat.
I have to go to the CMHofF tomorrow and do a job I hate for no pay. I mean a job I truly hate-but I have to do it and I don't get paid for it. In fact, I have to pay for it. Life's a bitch and then you die.
So-I know that my theories on comps and passing and that were right. That makes me sad-it really does. And I really am almost done. Oh-sure-I have a shitpile of work to do still-but I can do it. I am so close that if this were a relay I'd be the last to run. It's really quite surprising, that I will finish.
At some point. Somehow. It should be exciting. I suspect since I live in the middle of the country and I'm quite landlocked here I won't get my clambake/crab boil I've been dreaming about as my graduation party since I was nowhere near getting my B.A. That's a bummer.
Life's gonna suck when you grow up-it sucks pretty bad right now.
Having a roommate is weird as hell. She is actually able to go to bed when Stephen is on! That doesn't seem right. But then I'm a card carrying member of the Faith Based Faith of Stephen with a PH.
