Classic Rock

I did a lot this weekend, but I also didn't do much. On Friday my brother was in town from his college, so we hung out, went shopping and watched Boondock Saints, Team America: World Police, and Ace Ventura: Pet Detective. On Saturday I was a little less productive. I woke up around 2pm, which sounds bad, but is standard for me on the weekend. I had to run an errand to Target which turned out to be more of a hassle than I though it would be. But then I got to watch my dad play in his band: Johnny Alibi & the Excuse. My dad is the drummer, and they're a cover band, but they play some rockin' songs. Kim, Laura, and Nikki came with me. We had a great time, even though we had to leave a little early so Kim could go out to the campus bars because it was St. Patty's day. I'm not Irish, but I wore green anyways. (Mostly because I knew Kim would get mad at me if I didn't) But it's not a problem, because of my new hair color, green is definetly my color right now.

After we got back from the show around midnight, I started working on the Reality Check Podcast, and I was up until almost 5 making sure it got out. I feel bad because we really need to get RC out fast, but I haven't been as responsible as I should be. However, I am happy to report that as of noon on Monday we have almost 150 downloads, and like I said, it was posted about a day and a half ago. AMAZING! Yesterday I organized my closet, and went to my parent's house for dinner. I miss my doggy all the time!

I was super bummed this morning because I got my exam back from my Journalism course, and for some reason I skipped a 20 point essay question. As a result I got a big fat F. My TA was like, 'Don't feel bad, there are two more tests, and some papers. Please don't drop the course.' I can't anyways. I wish school was more important to me.

I'm blogging from the Memorial Union right now because I am scheduled to sit at a table to direct people upstairs for yearbook photos. However, when I got here, there were no other staffers to be found and there is candy, and a very old yearbook from 1922 sitting out. I don't appreciate people not respecting our older books. In some ways yearbook has been really organzied this year, but in other ways, it's more chaotic than ever. I feel like nobody is friends on staff, and I don't like the division between the business side of things and the editorial. I constantly get the feeling that the men on the business side think they are better/smarter than the people on the editorial side. We have a deadline today, and I'm 32 pages short. I'm pretty sure it's my fault. Somedays I'm really happy that I've taken a smaller role next year, but other days I wonder if the book will crash and burn. I don't want it to, but I don't know what will happen.

Well, I can certainly tell that I haven't blogged in a while because this post is so long. Maybe that will be motivation for me to update more often. I still feel like I've been doing a pretty good job, especially considering that this is one of four blogs that I update on a somewhat regular basis. Have a good day all.
