The Entourage evenings, with money on the mind and High Holiday Hopes

Well its been around 3 weeks since my last post and since then heaps of stuff has hapened! But nothing exciting or important in my life. Im just saying in 3 weeks a lot can happen. Ok so maybe I was being a bit of a smart arse there. Stuff has happened, weather or not you find it exciting is all a matter of perspective, and to be honest I dont care what you think im going to tell you about it all anyway.

So last night I was awake till 3 in the morning. "3 in the morning on a Thursday!" I hear you say? Well actually you might know the reason because you were most likely there. The guys came round last night for the second half of season 3 on Entourage. Yes thats right, since I last posted this marathon had only just begun, and it has continued every Thursday. It has become a sort of tradition of ours of late do be hanging out on a Thursday at some point. I worked in the morning from 10 til 1 (not a long shift I know, but I will come back to that.) So I got home around 1.30 and had told the guys they could rock up at 2. Panaho was first on the scene and the day kind of spread out from there. Dave had to leave for footy training, and Wayne had prior dinner engagements. So Adam Heath and I watched episodes of 2 and a Half Men and a the Lano and Woodley goodbye DVD, then had a BBQ style dinner of sausages and steakets as well as potato bake and salad. Very nice. We then went and picked up some suplies from the kooringal mall, watched bits from the Glass House DVD (I miss that show), and waited for Panaho's return.
Dave got back at around 10.30 and then it was Entourage time. Looks like season 4 next week if I am not working on Thursday.

Ok, now speaking of work, it is really shitting me lately. I have no shifts. No one ha any shifts. Major cut backs for the financial year bullshit, so I have very little money of which to save. And I want to save money. I need money. I have greenslip or whatever it is coming up in august, and am planning a trip to QLD with the guys in February, which I will need a fair bit of money for if I want a really good time. Its no good having enough money for accomidation and travel if im going to starve to death and not get to do anything. I know that it will pick up soonish, but at the moment it sucks. At least I got my forklift licence, thats kinda cool.

Oz lotto is $30 millio next Tuesday and I sooooo want to win. It will save me on having money worries. I could pay off my car, hell I could by a new car. 2 new cars! (but I wouldnt, im happy with the Astra). I could have an awesome QLD trip. I could even buy a house, and furnish it, and move out! So many things I could do with that money. I could also buy the Star Wars lego Mellennum Falcon! Im not saying I would, cause $775 is a lot for lego, no matter how big and cool it is, Im just saying I could.

I wish it was summer already. Just thought I would say that.
I love summer. The weather, the cloths, the cookies (you know what I mean), the BBQs, how good Rum tastes after work or a hot day.
I walked into Mark Anthonys today and they are getting their summer range in already! Bring it on I say!

Entourage and BBQ burgers

So the other day I finally got all they guys round for an Entourage marathon. A day of watching in envy as we see characters Vincent Chase score with a large number of unbelievable hotties as well as awesome Houses, Parties, and Cars. As well as laughter from outrages characters like Johny Drama and Ari Gold.

The Day started with BBQ burgers for lunch and with the help of on Mr Adam Robson we managed to create some truely large enjoyable and vary fatteing burgers. Panaho Arived just after lunch and then the Marathon began. Within the first 5 seconds of the show Panaho said "I like this already" as there were shots of four increadibly hot chicks who walked in and out of the frame. We managed to get through season 1 when Panaho unfortunatly had to leave. Adam, Heath, Wayne and I then went to civic video to check out some Blu Rays to see if we would hire any. It was quickly established that none of them really took our fancy. So we walked into woolworths picked up some suplies including more coke and doritos because we were still too full from lunch to eat any real form of dinner.

We decided with nothing else to really watch to start on the second season and finished at around 12.30 with one disc left. I would have liked to wait for Panaho, but im sure he will forgive us. I wouldnt mind another marathon and if Adam and Heath dont mind re-watch season 2 so Panaho can catch up.

Today I felt lazy

For most people the Sunday after the night they go out drinking doing absolutely shit all for the day wouldnt make them feel bad about themselves and the lack of activities done throughout the day, but for me I felt particularly lazy today. I think the reason for this is because I looked at the week ahead and I have bugger all to do. I have 2 shifts for work because its June and they are cutting everyones hours back due to the end of the Financial year. So this makes me feel lazy.

Today I spent most of my afternoon, seeing as how I got up just before 12 watching Scrubs. I took a coupla hours out to listen to music and draw, but I felt so lazy. I need something to do and unfortunatly there is nothing to really do in wagga. I need more work, or a new job I think. Or both. There are a lot of days when I wish I had a Monday to Friday, 9 - 5 job like everyone else and with weekends off. That way I can plan my weekends a lot better and have something to do during the week as well as a nice steady cash income. Hoping I can get some feedback with the whole doing voice over work, because that would be a sweet gig and many people have said I would be good at it.

Most recently it has been brought to my attention that whatever I do with my life I will need a lot of money. I know everyone wants more money, and its not like before this realisation I wasnt down for getting more money its just I have noticed that most of the things I do and buy are rather expensive. This isnt because I get them because they are the most expensive thing like some people might, no it just always turns out that way. I live my life by the "I like what I like" and thats the only way I can explain it. You see it just seems the things I like are aways expensive. And sure your probably reading this saying, thats stupid everyone likes the more expensive thing its just weather or not they can afford it. No I mean the more you could show me a picture of many things and probably 9 times out of 10 I will like the more expensive one. This applies usually for cloathing, technology and food. Food is an entirely different matter though, thats based on taste and I can never figure out why people would pay less for something to save a few bucks if they didnt like it. Id rather spend the extra money and enjoy my meal. And fair enough sometimes we all cant afford the nice things we really like but you understand what I mean.

I think the paragraph above is also partially due to the Entourage addiction I have and a conversation Heath and I had the other night. That and imagining the $58 million I wish I had of won. I know everyone who entered all accross Australia (say it like Dr Cox) really, really, re-healy wanted it also, but c'mon, im 20 years old and that kind of money would set me for life. I know a group of blokes from Melbourne won it between them so good on them.

Another thing thats been on my mind lately is the fact im still single. Now according to people out there its always "strange" that when your taken you kinda miss being single. Yeah, well Ive never known that feeling and after being single for a while I can tell you I dont think I would want to go back to it for a while. I guess this ties in with the whole being lazy title in a sence that whilst some days I am at home doing bugger all and watching TV both my sisters might be with there boyfriends. I guess im just sick of being single. But I aso feel that before I can really get a girl I need to have more money and stuff as well as my own place. Well not nessecerily my own, but not living with my parents. I dont know, maybe im talking shit.

Time Keeps on Slipping

I thought I might do a post about what has been happening of late. I often do regular posts about tafe work, my thoughts and aimless ponderings or what I did on the weekend, if it was exciting but I havent really posted anything about whats news really.
Well it is the beginings of the month that is September and for me that means absolutly nothing, lol, except the promise I look foward to for half the year of an increase in temperature. I like the sun.

Tuesday I finished my Harry Nixon Electrical assignment, Yay! We have a new photography assignment, but that should be cool. Went and saw the Bourne Ultimatum as you will know or find out one post down. I still need to see Die Hard 4.
Bought some games on Tuesday, "007 From Russia With Love", its ok, but I might return it, not sure yet. And Tom Clancy's "Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory". Its the first time I have ever played a Splinter Cell game and I am quite enjoying it so far.

Holidays are coming up! Hoping we dont get any assignments to do during them cause that would suck.
Thinking about having another 4 day weekend and renting movies.
Going to Canberra for 2 days for cousin's 21st, should be good, might buy stuff when I go shopping.

I want an iMac.

Thinking about the future (next year).

Saving money, well some of it.

Want to travel to the states and see everyone I met

Want to move to Queensland

Love Thank God Your Here. [in Australia, the ORIGINAL and BEST (I saw some of the american one, wasnt impressed)]

Wish I could do something when hot chicks walk into work.

So that is basicly all the news and events in my life I can think up at this moment.

Scrubs is the new Scrubs!

Alright, if you dont know me then you obviously dont know im a Scrubs fan. But I am. The title of this post is all to do with the release of Scrubs Season 5 on DVD, which I bought a week ago now and have finished already. Except for some of the special features.

And Why is Scrubs the new Scrubs? well you see it was like the be all and end all for me a while back. I watched it regularly and I quoted it and talked about it a fair bit. Anyway after a while other things came along, such as new Family Guy and whatever else appeared on TV or came out on DVD that was quote and talk worthy. So yes, Scrubs had left the scene for a while, but now its back. Like an old friend it returns to me giving me reasons to smile and laugh out loud.

Living with Elliot was certainly different, every inch of her apartment was filled with girly stuff. There were Lavender scented candles, pink robes, bath salts- It... was... awsome!

Whilst I'm talking about TV there's a few things I want to say. Actually I guess its more a beef I have with channel 9 or WIN television. Two and a Half Men, one of my other favourite shows. Where is it?! It came back, double episode on a Tuesday it was to be, and it came, but the week after it was gone again! that was nearly a month ago! Where is it?
Plus Ralph TV never came to Wagga, apparently 9 and WIN are different. Stupid system they have.
