September Saturday

Hello! Greetings! Salutations!

Welcome to my three-day-weekend bliss. :) Not only do I not have to go to work on Monday, but there is also a game tonight at 6!!! Now, in an ideal world - I would be going to said game, but watching it on TV will have to suffice, since I do not have season tickets. (mainly because they are WAY WAY WAY too expensive)

Work has been bleeding me dry. All I do is work. I am there by 730 at the VERY latest, and I think the earliest I left this week was 430, but I averaged more like 530 or 6. I get home, eat dinner, and then am usually in bed - or on my way there - by 9. It's a sad existence.

Furthermore - I've decided to endulge my Big Brother 7 obsession by getting the live feed for the last couple of weeks. The people in these chat rooms are so vapid it's rediculous. So - I don't enter the chats, I just watch. Like a good little voyeur. It's really sad, I know... But I'm so interested. PLUS! One of my students looks and acts creepily like Dr. Will.

I get so tired of the people who watch BB7. They seem to be stuck in high school. They only want the popular, cheerleader/football player-types to win. They NEVER root for (or sympathize with) the nerd, or the mother of 3, or (god forbid) the older person. It sickens me to see how many BB7 fans are in love with Janelle. Here is the epitome of vapid. She's a one-trick pony, folks... She flirts. That is how she gets as far as she does in the game. Sure, she can win competitions... But if she didn't flirt with key men in the house - it wouldn't matter. And why people don't see that she was one of the first to betray her alliance is beyond me. She isn't loyal, she isn't particularly clever. She's manipulative, and a tease. And that's who America is chosing. Sad. Meanwhile - Dr. Will has been the puppet master all season long. He has orchestrated everything that has happened inside of that house from start to finish. Although he is not "America's Choice" to win - he should. He played the game every minute he was in there. Granted - he made Janelle think that he was interested in her - when he is not... Granted - he lied at every opportunity. But it is not his fault that people believed him. My theory - if you're playing BB - either lie 100% of the time, or don't lie at all. It is the people who only lie once or twice who are villanized.

And if you don't watch BB - you've totally lost interest in my blog. Oh well. It's pretty much the only thing I've got going outside of work right now.

Alex and I are doing fine. But not seeing much of each other - since he is taking some classes this semester, and I am working all the time. Two nights a week - we literally see each other for half an hour before I need to go to bed.

I'm going to go run some errands now. :) And continue to enjoy my time away from work. :)
