I had a client meeting today.  It’s actually the first time at this job that I’ve gone to a client’s office and met them.  Kind of exciting.  What made the morning special, though, was that I had to actually dress up a bit.  Where in my old job, I had to wear a suit every day, here, I can wear pretty much anything I want.  Normally, I come in jeans and a t-shirt, during the summer, I plan to wear shorts.  Maybe even flip flops.

But today, I had to wear a suit.  Which wasn’t so bad, it turned out I had a clean one.  The issue was actually the shirt.  I have about fifteen dress shirts, three of which need to be retired, and the rest of which I have hanging in my closet.  So I looked at all of the shirts–and every single one of them was wrinkled.  Why is that a problem?  I hate ironing.  The ironing board is in the service porch, and while I was ironing the shirt, it dipped into the dog’s water dish.  Then it picked up some of his hair.  And then I had to actually iron the damn shirt.

Ok, so here’s my free idea to anyone who wants to make money off of great ideas:  Make a mannequin designed to be an iron…  All you do is put the shirt on over it, and it automatically irons the shirt.  Yes, someone please invent that.

For the last few weeks, my sleep schedule has been a little out of whack–I’m not sure why, but I’ve definitely been a lot more tired than usual.  I guess it comes down to wanting more time in the day, which of course, isn’t possible.  My night owl tendencies are coming out again!!

There’s something about the rain that really brings out the idiot in 90% of California drivers. I’m not really sure what it is, but by golly, I’m more scared of other drivers than I am of hydroplaning into a concrete wall at 70 MPH.

So I’m hanging out with Charlie, William, Eric, and Lillian, and everyone is playing Rock Band. I’ve never really understood the appeal of it; perhaps it’s my lack coordination when it comes to the drums, guitars, and vocals. I can’t quite seem to keep up with it!

YouTube is a great place to post videos–whether they be professional studios, like FOX, or amateurs. What’s neat about YouTube is that they grab the center frame of a video and use it as the “preview”. If you’re an enterprising individual, you can easily splice a goofy photo into the movie; people may get the wrong idea about the movie.

I bring this up because I was watching the new Simpsons intro, someone did a video response:

Now while that’s all fine and good, I was very surprised to see that ALL her videos are like that.  A woman reporting on something interesting (script sales), but all you see are her two nice pushed-up boobs.  Not to mention the fact that most of the comments are “duuuuude, you’re so hoooooot!”
