Worked Friday night at Sweeney...had to rework all the schedules to have holiday music, jingles, liners, and ID's along with the current IVT settings. I redid the ID's and jingles to be part of a randomized multicut cart setup. Makes life easier for me in that department. I know most of you have no clue what I'm talking about. And I like it that way. It makes it sound like I do things at work.
Went to Denton from Sweeney...wound up playing poker with Justin, Miss Maureen, Alex, Lil' Matty, and Kelley. Well...Kelley was dealer. Matty went out first to Alex's four-of-a-kind aces...then Mo went down not long after that. Justin went out next and it was down to me and Alex heads up. After about 45 minutes of just going back and forth...we decided it wasn't a big enough amount of money to just keep playing for. There was $25 up for grabs...so we each took ten bucks and played one last all in hand for the last $5. I wound up winning with a freakin' pair of sixes. He had a straight draw, but didn't get that last card.
At that point, Lori had shown up, so she drove us to Whataburger. Nothing like visiting your latenight party headquarters and the host of said party, Robert Coonrod, at 5am. Spent the whole ride back to the apt. trying to say as many offensive things as I could to Lori. Unfortunately, she's quite un-offendable. Dropped dead on the couch once we hit the door...
Woke up around one in the afternoon or so...managed to crawl off the couch at almost 2. Around 4, Cody and I went and picked up Jeffe and crammed in Cody's truck down to Lewisville for some Panda Express. Orange chicken and fried rice...Mmmmmm. Everytime someone walked in the place, we joined in with the staff..."Hi!, Welcome to Panda!" Quite fun...
We went from there over to Shake's...Justin was working so we...uh, we paid... for some frozen custard. Yeah...that's it. We wound up sitting in the back room there and shooting the shite...that is until I found a Dallas newspaper with a Galyan's ad in it claiming to be having a big sale. So...me, Cody, and Jeffe hauled to Frisco to check it out...in hopes of finding some killer deals. Not so much. Jeffe picked up a Christmas present for someone and we wandered the mall for a couple of hours...but it was a pretty pointless trip. But it was fun times, nonetheless.
We got back to Denton around 2230 and dropped Jeffe off at his place...he was about to pass out. I sat there and picked my guitar for a little bit (I loaned out the acoustic to Jeffe so he can learn a little bit)...then we headed back to Cody's. At that point, I was tired for one reason or another...so I took a 10 minute power nap on the couch in between txt messages from random people...
I woke up from my power nap with my phone freaking out...the battery was almost dead...so I killed it and took it out to the car to charge it. Hopped online so I could talk to Maureen a little bit. We wound up talking for around 3 and a half hours. Honest to God...the best conversation I've had in a long time. I mean, I'm thankful the girl still talks to me after last weekend...
I guess I never covered that. It's really not worth covering. Last Sunday just wasn't so great. I'll leave it at that.
Anyway...great conversation...me and Maureen are gonna wind up great friends I can tell. Normally, I'd bitch about that...since that's how all my schoolboy-like crushes wind up...but this one seems different. Very cool girl...lots of fun to hang out with and very easy to talk to.
Wound up at IHOP not long after that with a few people...that was so random. Had a big omelet...I immediately regretted it. It was sooo good...and soooo fattening.
Got up this afternoon...spent over an hour looking for my keys. Turned out, I left them in Cody's truck and he put them inside the gas tank door when he left this morning. He's such a good friend like that. :)
I finally left the apt. and met up with crazy old Jerry Strader to give him the CD I had to record for him and the people at Denton Bible since they rented out Camp Sweeney for their Men's Retreat. Had some Arby's...mmm, Arby's...and afterwards I was going to head home. I reached for my cell to text Maureen to tell her I was heading back to Gainesville, but she had already sent me one asking if I wanted to watch a movie. I'm not one to pass up quality time with friends...and I'm not one to pass up an excellent opportunity to procrastinate...so I went to Blockbuster, picked up Dodgeball, and headed over to Mozart.
Just hung out, watched the movie (funny, but really kinda dumb), and shot the proverbial shite for a bit. Good times.
Came back to Gainesville...met up with Rocky....went to the casino to make fun of Shaun since he was working at the restaurant he manages in the casino. We got there and realized he'd gone home...so we just came back to town.
On the way home...Ernie called me in to Sweeney. I was gonna go...and just knock out my ad production there. However, I couldn't find my Sweeney keytags...so I just stayed in.
So here I am...no work done...but happy. ;) It was a good weekend.
I guess I had better hit the hay since I'm getting up at 0545 to knock out those ads in the morning...as well as hitting up tech support at Sweeney to fix a major computer glitch. Grrrr...
Night kids!
