Looks like somebody's got a case of the Monday's


I might have a case of the Monday's.  Today wasn't a bad day or anything, it was actually a quite fine day, but something was off.  Maybe it's the cold, rainy weather and the fact that the sun has not come out once today.  I don't know what it is but I'm excited for House and 24 to come on so then I can watch The City finale and go bed and wake up when it's Tuesday.  I went to the Food Bank today and got a cool new project to start on.  It's a project that had I been charged with while still at my last job I probably would've dreaded doing (but done a kick ass job regardless) but since I haven't really gotten to use my skill-set in a while I'm totally stoked to be doing what I'm doing now.  

I came home and made phone calls, sent emails, looked for jobs and relaxed.  But something has been off.  And I don't know what it is.  Maybe it's because I found out that my old employer (good ol' "lay offer") laid off more people today (and some of those people are my friends) or maybe it's because WATL (and I'm calling you out because you deserve to be) showed the same ep of The Simpson's at 6p today as they did at 6p on Friday.  

I love The Simpson's, but no one wants to watch the same ep two days in a row (I know Friday and Monday are not in a row, but they don't show The Simpson's on Saturday and Sunday so technically it's two days in a row).  Especially when it's not the best ep ever.  It's the one where Bart and Lisa think they killed Martin...  

But while I'm calling out WATL let's talk about their sound issues.  Sometimes when watching WATL the sound will completely go out for no reason and not come back on for like five whole minutes.  This is especially annoying while watching Jeopardy! (I'm not getting emotional by using the exclamation point, it's just that Jeopardy! uses an exclamation point, check it out).  Like you'll be all in to the game and then the sound will go out so you can see the clues and you continue to yell out the answers but you have no idea if you're right or wrong because there is no sound.  Sometimes if you're really good at reading lips you can tell, but most of the time you have no idea if the answer is What are pancakes? or What is the book of Jake?  

AND speaking of pancakes, I have been craving pancakes for like a million years so yesterday Jamie and I bought pancakes at Publix and guess what!!  Jamie is in the kitchen now making pancakes for dinner.  OMG!  I am so excited!    Perhaps pancakes are the remedy to a case of the Monday's.

BTW, if you didn't know that I was making an Office Space reference when talking about a case of the Monday's, then you need rent Office Space and eat some pancakes.

The picture above is of my hero Nanerpuss.  He got his start in a Denny's ad.  He's probably the reason for my pancake desire.  He sings an awesome song.  YouTube Nanerpuss if you don't know what I'm talking about.  I (heart) Nanerpuss!
