Dancing With The Stars

I'm sickeningly obsessed with Dancing with the Stars. I have absolutely no explanation for it, other than that I like to watch B-level stars strut their stuff in the hopes that they will have a career resurgence.

So, the season premiere of DWTS was on last night. There were some really good couples and then some horrific couples. My favorite of the night was probably Mario Lopez (yes, AC Slater baby!) He is so freaking hot and wearing those tight little dancer pants...ahhh, nice! I couldn't stop gushing to the bf about how nice Mario's butt looked...I felt bad, but whatever! Emmitt Smith was pretty good too...I'm waiting for them to put a white athlete on the show though, chances are the results will be much different, as we all know whities don't have as much rhythm (stereotype yes, but often true!) Emmitt danced right before 8pm, at which point my bf left the room...I wonder if they track ratings after the first hour in 2-hour shows. I would bet that viewership in males declined dramatically at that point.

My prediction on who is going to win: I'm betting it will be between Mario and Joey Lawrence (WHOA!)

Interviews

I hate interviews! I especially hate the part after you interview, where you have to wait for what seems like a bazillion years to hear whether or not you got the job...

I interviewed for a buyer assistant position over 2 weeks ago and I'm still waiting to find out if I got it. I'm frustrated because it was a position that I was approached and asked to interview for. I didn't seek it out, I didn't network for it, I didn't do anything accept submit an application after I was asked. Doesn't that generally mean they want you? I don't know, this corporate world I work in is way too confusing and frankly playing office politics sucks! At this point, I don't even know if I want to the job...I just want the money that comes with it!

Work really sucks right now. I hate advertising and everything related to it, including almost everybody in that department! (There are still a couple people that I like over there, but it's getting more scarce as this year wears on...)

I hate when my boss calls me with stupid questions and inquiries and treats me like I'm a dumbass. Nobody understands that my database runs sooooooo much slower than everyone else's. I dare them to work in my database for one day...they wouldn't be able to deal!

Thank goodness I've only got 43 minutes left of this day...

Halloween

Okay, so I know Halloween is still a couple months away, but I don't want to get stuck like I did last year with no costume and a party pooper bf...so, I've been pondering what to be and so far I have 2 ideas that are decent.

1. Wonder Woman - I think I can pull it off...we both have dark hair and I'm toned enough...the risk is whether or not the outfit would fit me.

2. A nerd - Very easy, very cheap and really not a stretch, lol. I'm thinking of modeling myself after Screech's gf Violet, played by Tori Spelling on Saved By the Bell (a weakness of mine every Sunday morning). Drawback there is that Jeremy wants to go as a nerd too and he thinks it's stupid to have a couple-matchy costume...

Labor Day Weekend

It's been a few weeks since I have written anything, but not much has happened. After we got back from the Rally, we had to start packing to move into our new apartment. We moved across town to the DTC area - I'm okay with it so far. So, we pretty much spent the last couple weeks packing and moving and un-packing, with a few moments of pleasure snuck in between.

I had to work Sniagrab on Saturday morning, it sucked. Longest 8 hours I've worked in awhile...but I managed to sell a couple hundred Camel-baks, so at least I had a purpose. I'm just glad that it freakin started already as it means the workload will shift a little...hoping to get a promotion and not have to deal with it soon!

Took my dog to the off-leash dog park today with Jer. I can't believe how far she can run and actually catch the frisbee thrown - it's amazing really! Alright, I'm getting lethargic from the awesome lasagna I ate...more later.

About Me

My photo
I was born and raised in Rapid City, SD. Loved growing up there and am a little sad that my theoretical kids won't be able to grow up there - unless, God forbid, I move back. I moved away for college to Omaha, NE. I went to Creighton University. Great education, great professors - not a good place for young people with an itch for action! I moved to Denver in August of 2004 and love it! I recommend that all people live in at least one other place besides their hometown - the world is so full of opportunities, we just have to move out of comfort zones!
