Andy Rooney please kill me.

So I now feel like a real blogger. I have completely abandoned my blogging effort since my first post, subsequently ensuring that you all would lose interest in my writing.

Actually I am sorry for not keeping you all up to date on my life. It has been a crazy few months but I ma back up and running. To get you up to speed I left my job in March. You all knew how much I love working for Tom and frankly it has been a nice departure from him. I have spent the last few months getting ready to go back to school and I am back on track. The reality of life is that I have been left without a challenge for quite sometime. But I think that I have found a passion again. I am not going to go into great detail at this time but suffice to say that life is back up and running. As always I have to remind you that I refuse to edit this so if I miss spelllllll I don’t care!!!!

So for the tangent of the day – I want to pretend I am thinking. Over the last few weeks I have had several different people staying at my house. I have to say the the whole experience has been a fucking nightmare. Let’s start with my roommates. One was an intern who has insisted on being treated like an equal. Ok you are my equal --- you have no job, no car, no children, you don’t own any property, you live off you parents graces and you commitment to life is nothing beyond what benefits you. Again how exactly are he and I equal???

The other roommate is what I call an itelfuckual. Intelfuckual n. –

  1. People who ask deep questions in hopes of mind fucking you with further questions.

Now I spent the first 3 months of this living situation trying to converse with this individual to no avail. Now all of the sudden he has decided that he wants to talk. But not really talk he never asks me anything about my day or what is going on in my life. However, what he does is ask questions about meaningless topics. For example last night he asked me if it was legal to swear on TV. My first thought to this question was “thank god I am not holding a cross-bow right now” or I would have just been guilty of capitol murder but I digress.

He then asks me other questions always starting with “what do you think about”. These questions are always asked on subjects that he has already been privy to a large amount of information. So my off the cuff remarks are always then met with a follow up argument. Maybe one day he will just walk in and pick a fight like a real man, instead of going through this passive aggressive line of questioning. I wish I were so stupid that I actually fell for his crap and thought he really was intelligent.

Lately I have been writing like a mad man. The jokes have been a flowing like cheap booze at a Kiss concert. So I am thinking about getting back on stage in the near future. I will keep you posted but I am almost back up to 30 minutes of material which translates to about seven real minutes of quality product. Ok that is all for now I will try to be better about posting but I can make no promises. Keep in touch See below for the quote of the day. TGO
