the weekend has arrived...

well, this was a short week, but i feel like it has taken forever. i'm not sure why, but i've felt so tired every night this week. i hope this doesn't mean i'm getting old. maybe it is just my body's internal clock adjusting to my new routine. having a "real" job and having to get up to go to it in the morning after not really having that routine for such a long time has been tough. it is STILL tough, even after almost a year on the job. i wish i could get by on like 4 hours of sleep.

lots of times, i don't even think of things i want to work on until like 10 or 11pm, and by then, even though my mind is ready to go, my body says, "time to sleep." it kind of sucks.

speaking of sucks...summer tv is just a wasteland. we got into a routine over the course of the regular tv season of watching certain shows. we don't really watch a LOT of tv, but we have our favorites. mondays you've got two-and-a-half men and csi miami. tuesday has scrubs and SVU, and briefly had the brilliantly funny sons and daughters, which abc was too braindead to keep on the air. wednesday, i'm not really sure what was on. i think we sort of fell into that top chef show on bravo. late in the year we also tuned in to csi: new york. thursdays were great. the dvr was working overtime, with my name is earl, the office, csi, and survivor...definitely the most active tv night. after that, we didn't really watch anything until sunday, when law and order: criminal intent and crossing jordan came on. i also had the sopranos, which becky never really has gotten into.

now, there's been absolutely nothing since like the middle of may. thankfully, deadwood started back up on hbo. it is one of my favorites. however, weeknights have been completely empty. this week, rockstar: supernova started up. we really enjoyed the inxs version last year, and we were looking forward to this one. after the first shows, though, i gotta say that more of these contestants are bad than good. tommy lee is just a mess, and dave navarro is almost as bad. i'm sure we'll keep watching, because there isn't really anything else on, but it ain't great.

there was some other crap ass show on spike last night, called raising the roof, or something like that. it is some semi-reality show that is just awful. tv really is a mess. an unexpected couple of shows have popped up, however. lovespring international on lifetime and man bites dog on comedy central. they both have some very, very funny moments, and i think they've got potential...which means they probably will get cancelled after 4 showings.

well, i've complained about tv enough.

we are going to start trying to crank on our t-shirt site pretty soon. we are working on a design/layout for it right now. we have a pile of funny shirt ideas. we just have to get the site online and start selling them. i don't know how good it will ever do, but i can't wait to at least give it a try.

maybe it will make enough money to help pay for a new car. my car is just not acting good right now. i know that we have to get something else soon, but it is sort of a catch-22 situation. we like to go out and do stuff, but we need dependable transportation to do that...but if we get dependable transportation, we won't be able to afford going out and doing as much stuff. so, i'm trying to talk myself down from the upcoming 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited that i so very, very much want, into a 2004-2006 model. i know it is more practical....but look at this thing...

well, more on that another day. it is almost midnight, and i'm getting sleepy. i'm going to try and knock out another post on the amorica.org message board. it is a black crowes fan board that i just joined. as you will learn as we go along, i absolutely love the black crowes. i plan on sharing some other bands that i think deserve way more spotlight than they are getting, and i'm sort of making it my mission to hunt down some more.

together, maybe we can save music.
