A Day In the Life

9ish: Wake-up
Check cell for time and any missed calls
Contemplate checking Facebook to tag photos posted last night

9:11: Back to sleep

Noonish: Awakened by disturbing phone call from father
Learn bank account is overdrafted; receive on lecture financial responsibility; learn that daddy will give me money, but he will not deposit it my account for me

12:05: Arise to go and get said check from father to deposit before 1:30

12:11: Check facebook, email, myspace, cell phone

1ish: Obtain necessary funds and deposit in account so as to appear on this business day

1:27: Realize extreme hunger
Carefully contemplate lunch options available at the club
Realize I am sick of all culinary creation available at said club
Consider spending some of recently obtained funds on lunch

1:30-2:10: Drive around aimlessly attempting to decide what to eat for lunch while sending various text/ making various calls to ascertain exactly what went down last weekend and what might be on the agenda for the evening

2:28: Arrive at El Porton in sheer desperation to dine alone

2:31: Order Chimichanga

2:32: Send various texts about sad state of my life informing friends that I am in fact the sad patron who dines alone in a dirty Mexican restaurant long after the lunch crowds are gone but prior to the supper crowd's arrival

2:33: Waiter must have seen desperate hunger in my eyes

2:34: Waiter brings chiminchanga but is not fried (see previous entry, I'm quite certain the kind waiter realized there was no time to fry said culinary creation as I might die in the mean time), so its more like a chicken burrito but I quickly inhale it

2:35: Finish said lunch, contemplate that ElPo has a much more diverse staff than it used to; wonder why they don't only employ Mexicans and claim that "cultural necessity or authenticity or whatever the hell that was" exemption to title vii that I'm fairly certain law professor mentioned in fair employment practices

2:36: Vow to pay better attention in class next semester so I can answer my own questions when I have such random thoughts

.2 seconds later: Realize that will never happen, who am I kidding

2:38: Ask waiter for check; quickly throw cash on the table; make hasty retreat from restaurant

2:47: Return to my couch

Next 3 hours: Facebook
MySpace
Email
Google Chat
Think about how it may be too hot all week to make it to the "office"
Contemplate driving to the club for a slush puppy, but decide to settle for a diet dr. pepper
Laughing hysterically while viewing photos of the previous weekends shenanigans

Actually who am I kidding that was more like 5 hours

At some point during all this: receive facebook message requesting my presence at Rehab at the Beauty Shop this evening only to inform friend Rehab at the Betty Ford is probably more appropriate for someone in my situation


7ish: Start to watch a movie

7:45: Realize I have not paid attention to said movie because I have been too busy looking at random shit on facebook and myspace

7:47: Start movie over; promptly fall asleep

10ish: Wake up, only to discover I am hungry again
Also discover I have received another excellent text message; forward said excellent message to cousin

10:07: Check facebook for any new photo comments/ wall posts/ friends

10:09: Realize I have a facebook problem and vow to not check facebook for 48hours

10:15: Go in search of food

10:38: Return home, check facebook just once more before my self-imposed hiatus

10:40: Contemplate how people who actually have jobs survive; consider showering and going to Rehab at the Beauty Shop

10:43: Decide going out tonight is such a bad decision, that even I am not capable of being so silly

10:51: Climb in bed and watch useless TV programming hoping to gain knowledge for trivial pursuit or jeopardy or well its just an excuse really

Several more hours: Continue watching stupid TV; get out calendar attempt to plan weekends in the fall, realize the football schedule sucks but not having Friday classes is going to be great, once again contemplate how people with jobs function

11:56: Vow to accomplish something productive tomorrow

No, Really I am Shy

So I think if you asked anyone who knows me in real life to describe me they would definately descibe me as an extrovert. Funny thing is, inside I am really a shy person, but I cover it with my fake attempt at being an extrovert.

I've heard lots of actors consider themselves shy people, and other are like what???? No way that dude is shy. But I know exactly what they are talking about. I feel better being on stage or giving a presentation than I do just meeting new people.

And this is the strangest part.... my shyness really comes out on the telephone. I absolutely HATE calling people I do not know or don't have a real reason to call (now my close friends are an exception to this). I don't even really like to return phone calls. I much prefer email or text message..

Now this gets to be a problem when I'm involved in things like campaigning and I have to make phone calls.

So I guess in a way I'm an introverted extrovert, now I'm exhausted time for sleep...
