Sometimes I even amaze myself.  I am in a position to be in front of hundreds of people a day and to keep them happy even when, on the rare occasion, they are having the worst experience ever.  The past three days were filled with two of the busiest day, and I was completely out of it.  Any thought I tried to form as a coherent sentence quickly mangled and twisted by the immeasurable lethargy that had overcome my body and soul.

When your average day consists of controlling an entire story and all the actions within its 4 walls for 12 hours a day, it gets to you after a while.  The best part about life is overcoming these great challenges and in the end reaping the benefits from it.  I, unfortunately, have not had time to work in the thing I love the most, writing, the past few days. I believe that I have told you all before that it tends to get a little sketchy towards the end of the week and sometimes have trouble sitting down at midnight after a 13 hour day to write about my day.  At that point it becomes so biased because my sanity has been stretched so tight it would snap at the slightest touch.  These are the times of day that the Charmin commercials, that has the bear with irritable bowel syndrome sitting up in the tree wiping his ass, seem like a good idea.  Beer, at this point, might as well be NyQuil or some other drug that put you to sleep, because I found it hard to stay awake at a bar that was louder than an Iron Maiden concert.  So the next beer I had at home was reminiscent of the days of the baby bottle in the crib, sans nipple and blanky.

A new cousin of mine has just entered the world, his name is Dawson Edward and according to my uncle, “big ole fire hose on em with a bigger holding tank.”  It’s definitely a good thing to take bride in the things you create in the world, my uncle is not exception.

side note: i hate when people are like, “It’s okay that we are a couple minutes late, the previous are like 15 minutes long.”  First off, no they are not.  They show 5 trailers which average one minute in length.  Second, I like the trailers and want to see every single one, because the one I miss will the be only one I want to see and have to watch all the trailers for the biggest Hollywood flops of 20XX, staring J. Lo or some no name jock from Who-Gives-A-Fuck-ville, Montana.
