One X One

One more night of this silly little reality show one of my old favorite bands has suckered me into. I am reminded why I hate TV and how much time it wastes in life. But when I do watch something, man I am so sucked in. Between drag races and Rockstar:INXS I don't know which I yell at the TV more over. I still don't think Mig has a chance espcially since he picked to sing Bohemian Rhapsody tomorrow which will do nothing to convince INXS he is ready to move beyond his musical days. I do hope he will get a recording career out of this so I can buy his Kyle Vincent sounding ballad records...;) BTW Kyle is coming back here this Oct. It will be good to see him again.
I raced on Saturday, it was a crazy night. Big Red was in a foul mood and conked out 3 times on the return road. Maybe it was the full moon..ugh. My buddy Ryan won the track championship so I was very happy to be there to celebrate with him. I remember Mom brought champane when Lonnie won so I brought some for Ryan. As for my night, I won a round which may have helped get me to to the finals in 3 weeks but with me missing so many races, my chances are slim. I did feel good racing despite all the mechanical gremlins. No doubt Big Red needs some love, it's nothing serious but it needs work. I had issues again with my new nemesis. I really don't want to be anyone's bad graces but this kid isn't letting his issues with me go. I know we can't be friends with everyone we come across in our lives but I see no reason to hold grudges with people especially in a high powered sport. If we were NASCAR, he'd be bumping me for sure-hahaha!
Last week was crazy at work as I got home at nearly 8pm every night because of meetings, tours, etc... I didn't get to write as much as I would have liked. I am coming up on some difficult desicions to make on which way I am going in the story. I know which way but I am not sure how to make time pass in the story. I know I said it before but I love doing it, so much! I got the details in my mail about the Master's program for Creative Writing at ASU last week. I have to look further into whether I have a shot, I will probably meet with an advisor over there after I check in with my boss to make sure I will not offend if I go for that instead of the Cronkite School's masters program. I love radio still there is no doubt, I will always follow it's path but I seek new knowledge not more in Broadcasting. I lived that long enough. I would only be studying media to please others, studying creative writing would fulfil something I never finished back when I started at Eastern Michigan. I have really poor undergrad grades as things went south when I started working full time back then, I may not have a shot but I can at least check into it. Me back to school, crazy since I consider my last day of college one of my top 5 happiest days of my life.... We'll see...
Still on the Sloan Posies come down. I will write that review still, maybe tomorrow as it is Patrick's birthday. Silly I know that but oh well...it's fun and if it weren't for them, I wouldn't be writing....
Had another fun idea last week! I found out the next Living Learning convention is at Syracuse. It is next year. I had a thought that upstate New York is a heck of a lot closer to Nova Scotia than Phoenix is. I need to look into how much flights would cost etc..I am trying to talk Nina into joining me. I could finally see PEI and do my research on the N.S. for the novel. We'll see, but hey why not? If I did, I could up my amount of Provinces I have been to up to 6! I can dream right?
Time to go home and write...Farewell Typewriter...
