The Internet Is Back and other things

The cable guy came today. I haven’t had cable since I moved to Chicago. I moved to Chicago in 2008. I don’t know who I’m becoming. I do know that I’ve watched two movies already, and the cable guy left at 9:30. It’s not even 1. Pootie Tang is on  and I can’t remember a time when I was happier to watch Chris Rock jump around on screen.

There are so many things that overwhelm me right now, I feel like this new found love of television comes just at exactly the right time. Now I can watch Scrubs instead of writing this interview.

Update: I can’t watch Scrubs anymore. Jesus.

I wonder sometimes if it bothers my friends and family that I have excitement fits every time a new opportunity arises. Awesome interview? FREAKOUT. New writing project? FREAKOUT. Cool show coming up? FREAKOUT. Am I ever going to get used to life being generally awesome? How long before this annoys everyone?

I passed a car today with the words MAID BRIGADE written in huge letters on it’s side. Somebody thought of that idea. Somebody made up that silly name, fostered that idea, and now owns a business. A business that, upon further investigation, is actually a franchise. I could own my own MAID BRIGADE. Based on the looks of my apartment right now, that wouldn’t be a horrible thing. What I’m saying is, anybody can think of  a goal, and most people can actualize said goals. This gives me hope. If someone can start a business called MAID BRIGADE and be successful, and I can get cable after being in the dark for almost 4 years, there is hope.

  1. I agree Nellie..The sky is the limit on succeeding with goals..The only thing stopping you from that would be you. It is possible to save up the money to achieve costly goals…I have done it many times..you knew that though huh?
    Love ya..wish Chicago was closer..Miss you
