30 Days of Me: Detailed Week

I should have looked ahead, seen that this is a post I had coming and prepared for it. Oh well. Let's get by with some points of interest:

*Sunday I drove back from seeing my dad in Florida, stopped back in my old hometown to see some friends, got home and pretty much passed out from driving roughly 13 hours over the weekend.

*Monday I watched Sorority Row. What can I say, I have a guilty pleasure for these kind of movies in that I like to watch them and go "yep, you're about to die." You can't watch these things expecting 5 star classics, and when one of the girls is from The Hills, you're definitely not going to get that. But it was entertaining.

*Tuesday = drama. Too complicated for this place though.

*Wednesday I turned in an article about a Michael Jackson tribute night and I have to say I'm pretty proud of it. I'm proud because most of the time my editor will change things I say and rightfully so. What she puts sounds better. But this article was 95% me. You can see for yourself here. (The part she put in was the "loafers" thing and she reworded the youtube part).

*Thursday I watched Knight and Day. I really liked it at first and then a little bit after the halfway point I kind of became bored. I honestly almost fell asleep toward the end. It wasn't terrible, it just didn't hold my attention for the entire movie.

*Last night I watched Pirate Radio. Wow, this movie was great. Not to put myself on some kind of pedestal, but I think I liked so much because I am a radio DJ myself, though only on the college thing. But you can tell those guys just loved the music -- and each other. It was absolutely great and automatically went in my top ten.

*Today I watched USA get eliminated from the World Cup. Please Allison, wait a few days before rubbing it in. I'm still picking up the pieces of my red, white and blue broken heart. Then caught a couple episodes of Heroes and beat Green Day Rock Band.

Now I get ready to sleep tomorrow and bring you a post that will probably fail. I'm supposed to remember the whole month? Seriously. This may take some effort.

30 Days of Me: Detailed Day

*Spent a little bit of time at work before going to a mayor's meeting. Basically, the mayor of Montgomery just chatted it up with the press. Afterward, people kept asking me how I liked it and my response was always "uhhhhhhhhhh"

*The rest of the day consisted of me doing "research" for a Twilight, or should I say Eclipse, article I have to write. Yes, this is one article I didn't offer, I was asked to do. Oh well, could be fun.

*Had to fight with student loan people. Whole nother story.

*Came home and chatted with Frisco for a bit. Then got in an episode of Heroes before he goes off to a Drum and Bass thing in Atlanta.

*Now I'm waiting for my girlfriend to come over and we are either going to watch Pirate Radio or Anchorman. Or both. Who knows.

*Maybe I will play some Green Day Rock Band. All I know is this weekend I plan to: watch USA beat Ghana (hopefully), catch a little Lost, but mostly sleep.

30 Days of Me: Cryptic Answers

Before we get to today's freestyle post, let's get to some other news:

1) This 30 days thing is almost over. And I have to be honest, this last week doesn't look that exciting. But after it's over there is a tiny window of a break, and then I have something lined up for you guys. I know this blog said cryptic answers, but how about one more thing for you guys to think about?

b) USA's win yesterday against Algeria is a moment I won't forget. Because I was stuck in my cubicle. When I really wanted to chest bump somebody, anybody. It was just so intense that in ONE SECOND we went from being eliminated to winning the group. Bring on Ghana.

III) There have been some good releases lately. I was happy with Eminem's "Recovery," I was not disappointed with Pierce the Veil's "Selfish Machines" and was surprised that I liked Drake's "Thank Me Later."

On to the answers (original post in bold).

1) A status of mine has recently changed.

I am currently in a relationship. To say that it's complicated is an understatement. But for those who are curious, I am happy. My facebook friends don't know because well, I don't want them to. It's facebook.

2) I just made a decision that will impact the rest of my life. Ok, that's too dramatic. It will impact the rest of my 2010.

I'm going to move in with my sister and brother-in-law in South Dakota after I graduate. I'm gonna stay for about 6 months, get a job, put up money and figure out my next move. Keep going west to Cali? Stay in Rapid City? Come back to the South and live in Atlanta? Who knows.

*If you did the math, you would see that 1 & 2 complicate each other. What am I going to do about our relationship in August? As of press time... I don't know.

3) I have witnessed proof of epic events in the past year or so. Today, I take part in my own epic event (and there is a 90% chance I will have proof).

BAM:

I finally met up with a fellow blogger, jeanette. Making matters better? She is one of my favorite. I would say favorite, but I don't want to start any fights. She came through Atlanta and I was like "this is going to happen." Mellow Mushroom Pizza, Twilight hating at Borders and of course musical discussion made for a truly epic night.

30 Days of Me: Cryptic

Another fancy tickle day. And a quick post before I head to work, put in my headphones and listen to USA beat Slovenia.

I'm not very good at this "cryptic" stuff, but that's what this post about. I'm not particularly trying to be sly, these are just things I don't want to go into detail about just yet.

(However, some of you may get one or two or all of them. And kudos to you).

1) A status of mine has recently changed.

2) I just made a decision that will impact the rest of my life. Ok, that's too dramatic. It will impact the rest of my 2010.

3) I have witnessed proof of epic events in the past year or so. Today, I take part in my own epic event (and there is a 90% chance I will have proof).

That's it, but before I go I want to say thanks. Thanks to those that are still reading even though I may be light on coming to your pages. Honestly, if it wasn't for taking this 30 days challenge, I may not even be on my own blog. But I love you guys and that's not the 6 hours of sleep in two days talking :)

30 Days of Me: Recent Photo

Today's assignment: a recent photo of yourself. How about as recent as 1 minute ago?

Sorry this picture sucks, I'm not used to doing self-portraits with a webcam. But the main thing to discuss is that it's "casual Friday" at work so I am sporting my USA soccer shirt in anticipation of tomorrow's game with England.

As to why I'm covering my mouth? I don't know, it's early...
