You Take The Morning, I'll Take The Night

Yes, as you can tell, everybody loves mornings. Unfortunately, cursed with the genetics of stumbling through the morning like a zombie, I got to do it again this week. People are generally more cranky in the mornings and more likely to roar like a lionabout the slightest things going wrong with varying levels of anger, not limited to punding a keyboard, slamming a phone, massive levels of profanity and staring at a wall for an hour. This week I had to answer the phone and Tuesday I was there with the full house of editorial which was quite shocking considering my theory of "If I don't have to deal with people in the morning, I don't have to be cranky." Usually no one talks much in the morning (good) and at least I seem to get out of the Friday morning arrangement. That's pretty awesome. Next week K comes back and I get back to staying up half the night and sleeping till noon. That's the college way of life! HAHA, I should probably say as well that I'm happy K is coming back for other reasons besides the fact I won't have to come in during the a.m. slothery and because our real fearless leader come back. BTW, Slothery might be a word.

My fridge isn't working so hot, or at all. Thankfully, though my freezer is still working so I still have cold pop. I had to throw some of that crappy frozen food out. Thankfully, ice isn't really piling up in the back of the freezer anymore so that's not too bad. I am getting asked about virtually every day. All right!

In a major shock for some of you, I'm on a YMCA co-ed volleyball team with a bunch of the people from the paper. Our team is called "The Record Setters" but sadly, we are not very good. With an 0-6 record in two outings, the team hasn't come out of the gates well and I think Captain Sugarland pulled a hamstring jumping. Let's hope for better luck in the future. I'm out next week thanks to work, but it's fun. Advertising all-stars S2 and KL make the matches entertaining, at least. No one ever said alcohol-fueled entertainment wasn't hilarious. Speaking of that, during the game, a guy on the bench is howling uncontrollably in the background, so bad in fact, that antoher girl on our team and myself look at each other and laugh.

Rumor has it we're switching to InDesign soon. This annoucement caused a mere yawn for myself since I already used and it's not that big a deal. So that's pretty good. If it wasn't on Macintoshs, that would even be better.

OK, that's it for now, I need to start writing the next sequel to "Grand Theft Auto." Let's go.

InDesign is amazing. No joke. I am so pumped for you.

And YMCA? That is awesome. I love YMCA. I would love getting a membership there too, but ya can't have everything!

Hope your new fridge is tight! Tight as in cool and also packed with super cool food.
