Miles Run: 3
Weight Lost: Who fuckin cares? I don't
even own a scale.
I'm thinking I should have skipped that last mile tonight. Unlike Monday, the air is much drier and that third mile really did a number on my lungs. Oh well, I'm tough. I can take it and I feel better for it. ;)
So the costume is done. I went to my parents' house last night and finished it off in a few hours between growling and running with the dog. She's so funny. She only weighs about 6 pounds but she takes the tude of a dog 5 times her size. LOL At this point it looks like I will be going to see the play on opening night this Friday. I'm hoping that I will be able to get some pictures of my work for all of you to see. One thing I can say for sure is that I think it is pretty damn good based on the fact that it spooked me to see it on my nephew.
I got Ant totally rolling with laughter tonight all over a phone call from some guy named Mike at Dish Network. Here's a transcription of the conversation:
Me: Hello.
Mike: Hello?
Me: Hello.
Mike: Hello? Hello my name is Mike. I'm calling from Dish Network...
Me: We are on the do not call list. Why are you calling?
Mike: Oh, you want me to put you on our "you don't want to save money list"?
Me: No, I'm saying we are on the do not call list and you shouldn't be calling here.
Mike: So you want me to put you on our "you don't want to save money list"?
Me: No, I'm saying we are on the National Do Not Call List which means you shouldn't be calling me in the first place.
Mike: So you want me to put you on our "you don't want to save money list". We have two lists. The do not call list and our "you don't want to save money list".
Me: Do you know by calling someone on the do not call list, you can be fined?
Mike: Oh, well, I'm not selling anything. I'm just calling to take a survey and find out what you are paying for cable.
Me: We don't pay for cable tv.
Mike: Oh so you don't even have cable.
Me: We have cable internet and cable tv comes with it free.
Mike: Oh, well, have you ever thought about getting a dish from Dish Network?
Me: Uh no. My parents' attempted to switch from Direct TV to Dish and the guy who installed it didn't know what the hell he was doing. He ended up putting a bunch of holes in their house and made an awful mess.
Mike: Oh that's not good. He shouldn't have done that.
Me: Yes, I know. They weren't overly happy with your company.
Mike: I guess you wouldn't be interested in a dish then would you.
Me: Uh no, not really.
Mike: Well, will you do me a favor?
Me: What's that?
Mike: Have a goodnight.
Me: Yah ok.
I swear these people have to have an IQ under 60 or something. Ant came up with the idea that we should use his DJ equipment to disguise my voice the next time someone like that calls because I like to have so much fun with them. LOL He then took it a step further by saying we should record some Foamy The Squirrel rants and switch those on when they call. That just had me roaring with laughter. LMAO!
Ok, on a final note before I get on my way.....
Project Runway
Talk about being underwhelmed. None of the designs really "wowed" me. Kara Saun really let me down. I didn't care much for any of her things. Wendy had a couple of things I liked and so did Jay. Personally, I think this competition is between Jay and Wendy but I'm sure Michael K won't see it that way. I swear that man has personal issues with Wendy. Guess we will have to wait and see.
