I’m bored

Wednesday, December 28th, 2005

I have the entire week off and Regan has to work for most of it. Which is more of a problem for her than it is for me. I don’t see any one all day so as soon as she gets home I am in super jparks aggravating mode. I feel sorry for her because I am so annoying sometimes that I annoy myself.

Regan usually as quite a few stories about what some moron said or did while she was at work. She always has a funny or witty response for the idiots when they do or say something retarded. I always ask her if she actually told them that or not, but her response is always a disappointing “no”. I lecture her all the time on how she should actually say what she is thinking because that’s what I would have done. Which her response has always been something like, “I’m glad you don’t work retail because you would get slapped, kicked, hit, fired, maimed, shot, trampled, etc..” Yesterday she was extremely exhausted and actually told me to go and get a part time job. She explained that it would solve my boredom by getting me out of the house and interacting with people. Plus I would be aggravating and telling off all the idiots and I wouldn’t have to annoy her when she got home. Appealing to the inner scientist in me, she suggested that it would be a grand experiment to see what it would take to get me fired from a part time job. Oh she fights dirty sometimes;-) I think might actually try this because it sounds fun. Plus I finally watched Jackass for the first time over the weekend and I feel like doing something retarded.

So what should I go apply at first? Regan suggested Borders but I think she just wants me to put the competition out of business;-)

Get out the forties

And pour some out for Firefly and Serenity.

When Buffy the Vampire Slayer creator Joss Whedon looks back on 2005, he can take comfort in knowing that his film-directing debut, the sci-fi Western Serenity, resurrected his canceled-too-soon cult classic TV series Firefly, and was also one of the year’s best-reviewed movies. ”I should say I’m above reading reviews,” he says. ”But I would be lying.” Alas, Whedon’s fond memories are also tainted by Serenity’s status as a franchise nonstarter; despite Universal’s best marketing efforts, the film only mustered $25 million. ”In the end, it was what it was: a tough sell,” says Whedon, adding that it appears the Firefly saga has reached its conclusion. He has no regrets — and he’s moving on.

What’s jparks up to?

Working. I’ve been busy with work lately and haven’t had much time to write any posts. Hopefully I will do something fun and exciting soon so that I can post something.
