Ruby Tuesday

Well, today was a lot better than yesterday. I feel a lot more at peace with the decision and I am getting excited about opening a new office. It'll be great - the Margarator is in!
I've been all consumed with the job thing that I failed to mention I got a new car! I got a 2003 Suburban - yep, just a newer, fancier version of a gas guzzling soccer mom SUV. It's white with black trim and more gadgets and gizmos than I will ever need. The heated seats kick ass. There are a lot of things about my old one that I like better, but it was customized so it had all kinds of cool shit - I will miss the pimp lights. We sold it to another mom in need and they will love it. We didn't have to advertise it or anything, it went word of mouth and was sold pretty much immediately after I got the new one, so that worked out well.
The weather is finally getting back to normal again and I am so happy about that - I have been frozen for like three months. So now Tonya and I can start planning some of the Open Road Excursions - woo hoo! Bigfoot Campout, Camping with the Kids, Campfire Ghost Tales, maybe even a Mountain Man Rendezvous - ya'll need to plan on joining us on some of these!
It's also time to start planning RiverDrunk 2007 - Coming to the Nuisance. This is the 10th Anniversary Float Trip so we need some kick ass tshirts. Oh yeah - you all that ordered them last year and didn't get them - I have them and Amanda would like to get paid for them.
It's also about time for this season's Eerie Oklahoma Ghost Town Tour. I added a couple of places and found some new stuff thanks to my soon to be brother in law, Justin. I doubt I can find them again without him :).
All's well here - Bailey will be 10 this Friday. Boy, I'm not ready to have a 10 year old. Makes me kinda sad.
Anyway - I've been distracted with this whole work thing and the damned arctic weather that I haven't focused much on my other stuff lately. We went out Saturday night and saw No Hassle. It's a bunch of guys from Northcutt's and they were pretty good. It was a lot of fun - they do all the great sing alongs - Skynard, Steve Miller, Buffett. Had dinner at Chicaro's and that was awesome as usual. New favorite beer - Franziskaner heffe-weis. It's yummy. Took some fun pictures with my fellow ghost diva, Tonya.
Which brings me to - a producer in Florida asked us to send in a video on a show idea she had and he wants to possibly pitch it to a network. That would be interesting.
American Idol performances started. I dig Sundance, Chris Sligh, Blake Lewis, and Phil Stacy so far. That guy Nick with the dark hair & dimples is pretty cute but forgettable. I love Simon, everyone should be like him.

Everyone should be like Simon? Everyone should dress badly be a giant asshole and make money doing it.

Minus the dressing bad part... that sounds like an idea.

However we need a "test subject" hmmm we should get some random joe off the side of the street and we can say

"be an asshole who tells people how it is, all the time... and you can make money doing it"

one week later - we check back with our test subject.

He states the following:

"My boss fired me, my girlfriend dumped me, my mom slapped me, my dad wants to kill me, that football team I always go and watch wants me dead, and my landlord told me to move out if I can't make his lofty rent each month"

Yeah it would be great to be Simon.

I like your blog it does rock.

But see, people often mistake an asshole with someone who is merely stating what other people want to but don't have the balls to. It doesn't make someone an asshole because they tell the truth (or even their perception of it). An asshole is someone that walks on the freshly painted ceiling tiles you have laying out on the sidewalk to dry.
Thanks for stopiing by ;).

Wow Tammy, you are so right. I actually think Simon is freaking hilarious. When did telling the truth and speaking your mind make you an asshole? What, is it because he is from Britain? Demon I love your little "I would love to be Simon". Hell ya! If I could say anything I wanted all the time anywhere and get paid; I would. But since I can't, I will stick too my blog. :) Love the site Tammy!
