no sleep zone

i'm just not tired yet, so i figure i'll ramble on about some things for a while and then i'll get sleepy and maybe then i can go to bed.

i remember when i used to write about important things in this blog. war, politics, television finales, sports. now all i do is whine about my lack of job and sex. sorry about that, but what can you expect from a shallow 25 (and a half!) year old? if i don't worry about me, myself and i, who will?

congratulations to nathan on obtaining his first blog. it's hard to find time to write (says the girl who has lately been writing practically every day), but don't give up on it! he's a really good friend to me and i know he reads this blog all the time, so yeah it's cool to see others joining the blogosphere.

my dad is probably going to do the disaster medical assistance thing in louisiana. he was already packed and had a conference call with the FEMA people earlier this evening when i drove to visit my grandma. i hope for the best for those people, but it wasn't looking that great when i last saw the tv.

grandma is doing fine by the way. i swear that grouchy old lady will live to 100 just to spite everyone. haha! love her to death though. i know that's where i get my meanness from.

football starts next weekend! yay! although i have to work, although it's week 1 which means mostly crap games on. week 2 brings us the storied rivalry between my beloved michigan wolverines (woot woot go blue!) and the evil notre dame drunk irish. my comcast sports channel better be showing it b/c it's an ABC game and i know katv will have on some oklahoma or texas bullshit. rar i hate big XXII games! sorry nixon, but i'm a big 10 girl all the way...

i watched the VMA's tonight as much as i could while i was working...it was a lot more interesting this year than it was last. i'm glad the rockers were represented. my chem has an awesome performance and i loved the MC Hammer surprise. kelly clarkston was pretty funny too...i'm wondering if she faked her whole 'good girl' routine when she was on american idol. she seems better suited as a rocker chick. i have it recorded so maybe i'll take the time and go back to see the stuff i missed (like coldplay...and those gap commercials with john legend and brandon freakin boyd from incubus). now i ain't sayin she's a golddigga...but she ain't lookin for no broke...um yeah i'm still a white girl so i can't say that.

i am so psyched about the new kanye west cd that drops tuesday. they've been playing it along with an interview with kanye on XM since friday that's been really interesting. kanye tells some crazy stories and he's so cocky...but his music totally backs him up.

alright i'm done with this for now. happy monday!
